    GMBR: Group Stage



    OK everyone, so hear is the deal. Some of the rules have been altered ever so slightly from my original rules to make things run more smoothly. Because we have such a large number of teams, I have decided to do a format similar to that of the World Cup of soccer. There will be two stages - a group stage and a knockout stage.

    This is the group stage. It works as follows. There will be 32 groups in all, with each group having four teams. I have randomly assigned each of the 128 teams a number from 1 to 128 using a random number sequencer from random.org. The first four numbers are considered Group A, the next four numbers Group B, and so on and so forth. In doing so, I have gotten rid of the idea of seeding. I have done this for the following two reasons:

    1. I got tired of the bitching (thanks to everyone who showed support, to the rest - Adam - kiss my ass :) )
    2. With sports tourneys, there are qualifying statistics that you can argue for, such as point systems and number of wins, that allows teams to reach higher seeds. In music, there isn't. It's merely subjective (with a few ground rules, of course). Because of this, it doesn't really make sense to pre-seed these teams just yet.

    With the groups now set up, I will reveal two new ones every three days. Then, each Musical Elitist can vote one time. To vote in this group stage, assign a 3, 2, 1 or 0 to the four teams (you can only use one number once), 3 being the best and 0 being the worst. I will then tally up the totals, and the top two teams from each group will advance to the 64-seed bracket (the knockout phase). From here, I will seed the teams based on their scores from the group stage.

    Let the games begin!

    P.S. Format it like me and Miriam please! Just copy and paste the body and change the numbers. It's easier for me to tabulate that way :)

    Those groups were both really hard for me! I didn't want to give out any 0s!
