EDM Song Tournament

How was it fair when so many matches were decided by coinflips? Nobody voted those songs through. They just got lucky.

Plus, the person with the most songs left in the tournament an hour ago wasn't even allowed to vote in the final rounds. How is that fair?

Alright, fine, but I'm including "My Love" as a complimentary second winner since it was unfair that CiCi couldn't vote tonight.

I'm also including my "Firestarter" as a complimentary second runner up so I can be included. That way all four of us made the Hall of Fame.

Thanks, CiCi.

That's your guys' prerogative.

I LIKE THAT. Good suggestion.

I will probably do that in the future.

The far... far... far... distant future.

There. That worked out beautifully. I always know what to do.

And GB, thank you for agreeing with me earlier.

And how many of your songs were you not allowed to vote for in the last few rounds?

You just don't get it.

It's okay. Everybody's cool now. Except GB.

You're welcome, but sadly, you caved in and included it anyway.

But I got The Prodigy into the Hall of Fame!!!

Personally, I couldn't care less. I didn't have a horse in this race. I just followed along, and I thought it was unfair to break ties by flipping a coin that nobody could see except the person running the tournament.

I might actually win a tournament some day if I run it like this one was run.

Yeah, by just randomly including it. It wasn't voted in, so it means nothing.

*laughs* That reminds me of a movie.

Thank you for the insane song tournament, Omnizoa.

Which movie?

I totally lied about the coinflip actually.

I actually rolled a fist-sized 20-sided dice and decided based on whether it lands on evens or odds.

I would have used a BBCode diceroll... but Movie Forums doesn't have that.

He's a new member, it's probably one of the first if not the first time he's ran one, give him a break

I like your idea about ranking tied songs though, that'd be more effective and produce more accurate results too!

It reminds me of the director's commentary on Nightmare Before Christmas which drew humorous attention to the fact that Jack Skellington however miserable he may be can just convince himself everything is great and is exactly as it needs to be.
