Banned Band & Artist Song Tournament

[Godoggo]

I'm opening this thread now because it will take awhile and I want people to have time to think about their choices.

This tournament will have the exact same rules as the last one (if your new to tournaments just go to the first page of the She-Bop tournament) except any type of music will be allowed from any artist except those banned. Every person that signs up to play will have up to ten bans that they can use on any artist of their choice.

You can use these for singers and bands that you are sick to death of, artists that you think of as "easy wins", or for just something you don't want to hear. The choice is yours. After the banned list is compiled you can only nominate bands and singers that haven't been banned.

Everyone will have up to ten bans. You don't have to use them all, but the more bans we have the more interesting and diverse the tournament will be.

Once you sign up you may start your banned list. For now I will allow you to make changes but please, please keep it all in one post. Makes life easier for me. Obviously, you can't nominate anything yet. I'll let you know when you can.

Have fun! I hope a lot of people sign up for this. I think it will fun.

Simon and Garfunkel

[honeykid]

So we're looking at having over 100 banned artists? Will there be anyone left to vote for?

[mistique]

So we're looking at having over 100 banned artists? Will there be anyone left to vote for?

yeah 10 bans for each person sounds a lot. Besides that I'm in :)

[Godoggo]

Yep. There is tons of music out there. I actually thought about this quite a bit and I'm pretty sure it will end up with less banned artists than if I were to do it the way I had originally planned and dig through all the tournaments and ban everything that had been nominated more than once.

If this were a specific tournament it may be a problem, but this is allowing everyone to dig through all the music ever made.

[Godoggo]

It's really not that much. I even overestimated 20 people joining. Even with that number and everyone using all their bans 200 artists out of all the artists there ever has been in all types of music might be somewhat challenging, but there is still literally thousands of artists left.

[mistique]

Banned:
1. The Beatles
2. Michael Jackson
3. Katy Perry
4. Metallica
5. Nicki Minaj
6. Beyoncé
7. Sia
8. Justin Timberlake
9. Eminem
10. Rammstein

[gbgoodies]

I'm not sure that I understand this tournament.

Everyone is listing up to ten artists that they do NOT want to be allowed to be nominated? Is that correct?

Then, after that list is complete, we will all pick songs from whatever unbanned artists are left?

[Godoggo]

That's exactly it.

After more people have made their list, I'll compile a master list alphabetically so that it is easy for everyone.

[Godoggo]

I've got to leave for the day, but if anyone has any more questions, I'll answer them tonight.

[gbgoodies]

That's exactly it.

After more people have made their list, I'll compile a master list alphabetically so that it is easy for everyone.


Okay thanks. How much time do we have to compile our ban list? This could take me a while because I don't know a lot of non-country artists without looking up their song lists.

[Sexy Celebrity]

I'm in, but is Miss Vicky in? That will determine what's on my ban list.

Actually, maybe not. Tom Petty's annoying, but his music is never a threat.

BANNED

1. Jefferson Airplane
2. Kate Bush
3. Heart
4. Roy Orbison
5. Aerosmith
6. The Doors
7. R.E.M.

10. Led Zeppelin

In, but need a few hours

[honeykid]

Oh, there'll be plenty left. But do you want to listen to any of them? :D

I am, of course, in though. :up:

[gbgoodies]

If a band is banned, does that also ban each member's solo songs? For example, if The Beatles are banned, are Paul McCartney, John Lennon, etc. also banned?

Also, if an artist is banned, are their hit songs still allowed if the song is sung by an artist that wasn't banned?

[honeykid]

I don't know, but I'd guess so long as the song isn't covered by someone else who's banned, there's no problem with that. The solo stuff was a question I was going to ask, too. I'm guessing they'd have to be nominated seperately, but I don't know.

There's no way that you guys could ban all the country artists I like. I know plenty of country artists most of you probably haven't even heard of, but the rest of you may not want to listen to them. :D

[foster]

I ban Alice in Chains

[Sexy Celebrity]

There's no way that you guys could ban all the country artists I like. I know plenty of country artists most of you probably haven't even heard of, but the rest of you may not want to listen to them. :D

Oh, God. Please don't join.

[gbgoodies]

Oh, God. Please don't join.

Most of the non-country artists I listen to have already been listed here as banned. If you guys ban all the non-country artists I know, then I won't have any choice but to use a country music list. :shrug:

But I'll do my best to try to include at least a few non-country songs. :)

[honeykid]

There's no way that you guys could ban all the country artists I like. I know plenty of country artists most of you probably haven't even heard of, but the rest of you may not want to listen to them. :D
This was kind of my point. You can ban 100 artists, but would we want to hear any of them?

[Sexy Celebrity]

This tournament won't do much because there's still a lot of horrendous music that can be nominated. I'm even thinking about making all of my nominations as horrifying as possible, just to torture everyone. Swan says he plays that way.

[Swan]

When did I say that? If I did, i was joking. I said I nominate songs to get people to listen to my music - but I genuinely find it good. That's opposed to just nominating hits that I don't care about.

Although I love Autechre, I probably wouldn't nominate them, because no one would like them.

[Sexy Celebrity]

You said you like forcing people to listen to music they may not like. Something like that.

[Swan]

You said you like forcing people to listen to music they may not like. Something like that.

I believe the exact quote was "I like forcing people to listen to my music," which I said jokingly, but also in response to nominating just hits. I want to show off my musical taste, whether people like it or not. It's good to me.

[gbgoodies]

This was kind of my point. You can ban 100 artists, but would we want to hear any of them?


You guys never want to hear any of my nominations. Why should this tournament be any different? :shrug:

I don't play to win. I just play to have fun, and hopefully find some new artists and/or songs that I like.

[Swan]

These tournaments aren't meant to be fun. They are serious business.

:D

[Swan]

I can't decide who else to ban!

[Sexy Celebrity]

You guys never want to hear any of my nominations. Why should this tournament be any different? :shrug:

You actually don't nominate really bad songs. I just didn't want a bunch of country again because you nominated a lot of country in the current She-Bop Song Tournament.

It's Swan that nominates stuff that I can't stand.

[Swan]

Right back at ya.

[Sexy Celebrity]

Right back at ya.

But you're rooting for Bjork. That's my nomination.

[Swan]

Fair point.

[Sexy Celebrity]

Madonna shouldn't be banned. Madonna never comes close to winning.

[gbgoodies]

These tournaments aren't meant to be fun. They are serious business.

:D


Nope. These tournaments are meant to be fun. If this was business, we would have to pay to play, and there would be a real prize for winning.

[cricket]

My banned list-

Black Sabbath
Bob Dylan
Bob Seger
Donovan
Elvis Presley
Eric Clapton
Jimi Hendrix
Neil Young
The Rolling Stones
The Who

[Swan]

GB, I WAS JOKING.

I wouldn't worry about it if I were you. Think about it this way. If I nominate a bunch of country songs, they'll all be out after the 1st round, and your songs will have a better chance to win.

[Sexy Celebrity]

I want an All Male Song Tournament. No women. There's been two women tournaments and now all the men are getting banned here. It's going to be like a third female song tournament, I bet.

[gbgoodies]

GB, I WAS JOKING.


I know. So was I. :D

[Swan]

I want an All Male Song Tournament.

So, pretty much every main song tournament of the past? :p

[christine]

Kate Bush please.
I'll think of more tomorrow

[Sexy Celebrity]

I banned the Bush already.

[Swan]

I like how the first two words in the title sound exactly the same but are spelled differently.

[Sexy Celebrity]

So, pretty much every main song tournament of the past? :p

I miss the men after this past female song tournament. Now I understand why Miss Vicky boils over in anger if a woman beats her songs.

[Swan]

Why is that?

[Sexy Celebrity]

Why is that?

I don't like listening to them as much as male artists. Unless it's just the women you guys nominated... but the men just sound better to listen to. It's probably why they typically win song tournaments.

[Godoggo]

Okay thanks. How much time do we have to compile our ban list? This could take me a while because I don't know a lot of non-country artists without looking up their song lists.

I'd say at least two days.

[cricket]

This should definitely be a mega-tournament, 16 people with 16 songs a pop.

[Godoggo]

I ban Alice in Chains

Does that mean you're in? If not it's going to make it really confusing if people come in here and shout out bands they don't like.

[Sexy Celebrity]

This should definitely be a mega-tournament, 16 people with 16 songs a pop.

I don't know if I like the idea of a "mega" tournament myself for this because if there's less songs, and bands that are banned, then there's more limitation and that could be interesting.

[gbgoodies]

That's great. I think my banned list could take me longer than my nominations.

[Swan]

I seriously don't know who the hell else to ban. Any suggestions?

[Godoggo]

I don't know, but I'd guess so long as the song isn't covered by someone else who's banned, there's no problem with that. The solo stuff was a question I was going to ask, too. I'm guessing they'd have to be nominated seperately, but I don't know.

You're right on both counts, HoneyKid. As long as the band isn't banned any song is allowed. Someone solo from a banned band is eligible unless banned also. :D :cool::drevil:

Someone with good taste then! :D

Okay, then replace him with John Lennon (solo).

[Swan]

Someone with good taste then! :D

Okay, then replace him with John Lennon (solo).

I literally just added John Lennon to my list. :laugh: You can have him, though.

[Godoggo]

I think I have everyone that has joined so far. You may want to check the first page to make sure you're on there.

I hope 16 people do join so we can have a mega tournament. That would be fun.

I'm going to go ahead and make the master list now, so people banning later won't be so confused. It will be on the first post.

[Sexy Celebrity]

There goes my idea of nominating "Imagine."

[Godoggo]

Cool! We only need 6 or more people.

[Sexy Celebrity]

The Beatles could be banned. They are very threatening, even though they haven't won yet.

[Swan]

Mistique banned them already.

[Sexy Celebrity]

I worry Miss Vicky's waiting to jump aboard at the last minute, after everyone has finished their bannings. If she does, I will have to change a banning or two.

[Swan]

I could ban Fleetwood Mac, Tom Petty and Lindsey Buckingham...

[Monkeypunch]

There goes my idea of nominating "Imagine."

I actually love that song, but I am sort of annoyed that it's the only John Lennon solo song that most people know.

[Godoggo]

The master list will be alphabetized by the first name so Garth Brooks will be under G. Any bands starting with The will be alphabetized by the following word. If you make any changes after this point I need to know. Only if you change something, not if you add it.

[Sexy Celebrity]

Another one someone could ban is The Moody Blues.

"Nights in White Satin" has been nominated 1,000 times. First by me, then everyone else did it.

[Swan]

"Nights in White Satin" has been nominated 1,000 times. First by me, then everyone else did it.

Done, even though I like The Moody Blues.

[Sexy Celebrity]

That song came close to winning twice. I bet if they weren't banned and that song played now, it might even win finally.

[Godoggo]

That's a really good one.

For anyone that gets stuck you can google things like best classic rock bands, or top songs of the 80's and see what comes up. It might jog your memory of something you want banned.

Sexy, do you have the precious winner list handy? That could help people think of someone to ban. Maybe. If they haven't been already.


The master list is current, so if you do any swapping let me know.

[cricket]

I've got 16 links done; it takes me awhile so the head start was nice.

All 10 artists that I banned were my favorites besides some that were already banned.

Some popular artists that haven't been banned yet are The Supremes, Cream, Prince, and U2.

[Sexy Celebrity]

Sexy, do you have the precious winner list handy? That could help people think of someone to ban. Maybe. If they haven't been already.

[Sexy Celebrity]

Prince hardly ever gets nominated because he doesn't allow his songs on Youtube, so nobody can link to them from there.

[Swan]

Alright, got my ten done.

[gbgoodies]

Here's my banned list:

Alice Cooper
David Bowie
Fleetwood Mac
Lindsey Buckingham
Paul McCartney
The Police
The Supremes
Tina Turner
Tom Petty
U2

[Godoggo]

Thanks Sexy, Yeah, there are some artists on that lists that need banned or everyone is going to run straight for them.

I hope more people join. I really, really want this to be a mega tourney

[Sexy Celebrity]

Not my Tina Turner!

Also, I think Swan already banned Tom Petty and Lindsey Buckingham and maybe Fleetwood Mac.

[gbgoodies]

I think Swan already banned Tom Petty and Lindsey Buckingham and maybe Fleetwood Mac.


Not according to the first page.

[Sexy Celebrity]

On his list, he did. It may not be on the first post yet. He updated his list.

[Godoggo]

Yeah, he just now added those right before gbgoodies posted hers.

[gbgoodies]

Yeah, he just now added those right before gbgoodies posted hers.


Okay, I'll change mine to Prince, Scorpions, and The Mamas & The Papas.

[Sexy Celebrity]

I'm telling ya -- Prince is a waste. He's banned himself because you can't find his music on Youtube.

[gbgoodies]

I'm telling ya -- Prince is a waste. He's banned himself because you can't find his music on Youtube.


But the rest of you banned most of the artists I know. I'm open to suggestions.

[Swan]

Fleetwood Mac
Lindsey Buckingham
Tom Petty
U2

I banned all of these.

[gbgoodies]

I banned all of these.


Okay, so I have to change U2 also. Change U2 to Cream.

[Sexy Celebrity]

But the rest of you banned most of the artists I know. I'm open to suggestions.

Siouxsie and the Banshees

[Sexy Celebrity]

Or Grimes. I believe Swan is really into Grimes. Whoever Grimes even is.

[Sexy Celebrity]

We have to attack the women singers nobody's heard of because they're on their way if we don't.

[Swan]

Why are you targeting me?

[Sexy Celebrity]

Why are you targeting me?

Because I know who your repeat offenders are.

Don't worry. At least I paid attention.

[gbgoodies]

Siouxsie and the Banshees


Okay, change Cream to Siouxsie and the Banshees.


So my updated banned list is:

Alice Cooper
David Bowie
The Mamas & The Papas
Paul McCartney
The Police
Prince
Scorpions
Siouxsie and the Banshees
The Supremes
Tina Turner

[Godoggo]

Tom Waits. He gets nominated often and would go far without some of the other bands that aren't allowed to be nominated.

[Sexy Celebrity]

Bye, Siouxsie.

[Swan]

The hell are you replacing Cream with Siouxsie for? Cream is infinitely more famous. Someone's going to nominate "Sunshine of Your Love" and win.

[Sexy Celebrity]

The hell are you replacing Cream with Siouxsie for? Cream is infinitely more famous. Someone's going to nominate "Sunshine of Your Love" and win.

He's right. And I can't stand that song. I'd rather have Siouxsie than Cream. It pissed me off when "Sunshine of Your Love" almost won once.

[gbgoodies]

Tom Waits. He gets nominated often and would go far without some of the other bands that aren't allowed to be nominated.


That's true. So change Prince to Tom Waits.



The hell are you replacing Cream with Siouxsie for? Cream is infinitely more famous. Someone's going to nominate "Sunshine of Your Love" and win.


I don't know a lot of Cream songs, but I've heard a bunch of Siouxsie songs in these tournaments.

I don't know "Sunshine of Your Love", but if you think it's a winner, then you can nominate it.

[Sexy Celebrity]

"Sunshine of Your Love" is far more threatening than Tom Petty. And Miss Vicky doesn't appear to be joining us.

[Swan]

Well, that's it. Games over. Cream won.

[Swan]

I'm watching the credits to Hellraiser: Inferno and it's apocalyptic music, really fitting to this situation.

[Sexy Celebrity]

But it would also be nice to not have Tom Petty in here at all.

But if Miss Vicky joins, she'd find some other way to sneak Tom Petty in, like some other band he was in briefly that wasn't called Tom Petty.

[Godoggo]

Got it. Tom Waits instead of Prince.

A lot of people joining this one like Siouxie so I think that choice was wise.

[Swan]

But it would also be nice to not have Tom Petty in here at all.

But if Miss Vicky joins, she'd find some other way to sneak Tom Petty in, like some other band he was in briefly that wasn't called Tom Petty.

She'll probably nominate that band he was in with Bob Dylan. Who's also banned. :p

[gbgoodies]

If you'd like, I'll change The Mamas & The Papas to Cream.

[Sexy Celebrity]

I'm watching the credits to Hellraiser: Inferno and it's apocalyptic music, really fitting to this situation.

Did you watch that whole movie? That movie has a bad reputation with the Hellraiser crowd, but I don't really like to go with the Hellraiser crowd. I'm not sure where I stand on it, but Clive Barker and Doug Bradley think it's one of the worst.

[Swan]

I'd like that. Cream is a bigger threat.

[Sexy Celebrity]

If you'd like, I'll change The Mamas & The Papas to Cream.

That would be better. Mamas & The Papas have no chance of winning now because their best song has already won.

[Swan]

Did you watch that whole movie? That movie has a bad reputation with the Hellraiser crowd, but I don't really like to go with the Hellraiser crowd. I'm not sure where I stand on it, but Clive Barker and Doug Bradley think it's one of the worst.

No, meant opening credits. Just started it.

[Sexy Celebrity]

I know how that Hellraiser: Inferno music sounds from memory. Kind of. That's the one where the opening credits show the puzzlebox moving around. I rented that on VHS at Blockbuster when it came out in 2000. I can still remember the day I rented it. The store had one copy of it on the shelf. I went to go get it but this black man was in front of the shelf, looking at the box, and he goes -- "HEEEEEEY! That's my man right there! PINHEAD!"

Then he took the video and I thought OH NO. He's gonna rent the only copy!!!!

So what I did was I acted DISINTERESTED. I moved away and acted like I didn't give a damn about Hellraiser: Inferno.

He then put the video down and moved on. I SNATCHED IT and got it! I remember this. This is my truth.

[Swan]

What's funny is it's directed by Scott Derrickson, who is SUPPOSEDLY one of the best modern horror directors.

[Sexy Celebrity]

Had no idea he directed those other movies I'm seeing. I haven't seen them, but I've had no interest.

[Swan]

Sinister is alright. The Exorcism of Emily Rose is stupid.

[gbgoodies]

I'd like that. Cream is a bigger threat.

That would be better. Mamas & The Papas have no chance of winning now because their best song has already won.


Okay, so change The Mamas & The Papas to Cream.


So my updated banned list is:

Alice Cooper
Cream
David Bowie
Paul McCartney
The Police
Scorpions
Siouxsie and the Banshees
The Supremes
Tina Turner
Tom Waits


Is everyone happy now?

[Sexy Celebrity]

No, I'm not happy. You banned Tina Turner.

[gbgoodies]

No, I'm not happy. You banned Tina Turner.


That one was for me. I don't like Tina Turner.

[Sexy Celebrity]

If you're not with Tina Turner, then you're with Ike Turner.

[gbgoodies]

If you're not with Tina Turner, then you're with Ike Turner.


Who's Ike Turner?

[Sexy Celebrity]

Who's Ike Turner?

Her dead ex-husband. He used to sing with her and beat her up.

[gbgoodies]

Her dead ex-husband. He used to sing with her and beat her up.


Then I don't like him either.

[Swan]

I don't like him either. Who would like someone who sings with Tina Turner?

[cricket]

http://uproxx.files.wordpress.com/2013/09/ike-turner-meme-2-600x600.jpg

[cricket]

I assume most everyone has heard Ike and Tina do Proud Mary-it's awesome

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hzQnPz6TpGc&feature=youtube_gdata_player

[Sexy Celebrity]

Tina liked it ROUGH.

[Monkeypunch]

Here's my banned list:

Alice Cooper
David Bowie


You're killing me! KILLING! Two of my favorites.

[gbgoodies]

You're killing me! KILLING! Two of my favorites.


Sorry, but I only know 1 or 2 Alice Cooper songs, and I don't like them, and I've never been a fan of David Bowie. :shrug:

Although I did like Alice Cooper when he was on The Muppet Show. That was kind of fun. :)

[cricket]

Alice Cooper DJ's on 100.7 WZLX classic rock in Boston on Saturday nights, and he is great at it.

I had a Bowie's Blue Jean as an alternate choice, but my sweet 16 is still intact.

[Sexy Celebrity]

That's what Alice Cooper is up to these days? Being a DJ in Boston?

[Swan]

Tom Petty has his own show on Sirius. Buried Treasures.

[Sexy Celebrity]

Tom Petty has his own show on Sirius. Buried Treasures.

It's about him?

[Swan]

No, he just talks and plays music he likes.

[Sexy Celebrity]

Miss Vicky probably calls in all the time.

[Godoggo]

I'm going to keep this open for sign- ups until tomorrow night, I think. Then maybe another day for nominations and start this Friday night.

All we need is 6 more people for the mega tourney, more than that if they want to join.

Of all the people that have signed up I only need HK's list and 4 more from Mistique.

Edit* if anyone new signs up make sure to point them to the first post. As of now the master list has everything on it that I have.

[jiraffejustin]

I think I am going to sit this one out.

[christine]

Go - don't count me in luv, we've just had a whole load of work given to us that has to be done over the next week so I'm going to be busy!

[Slappydavis]

I'm in, working on my bans list.

Here's what I've got:

Aretha Franklin
The Cars
Elvis Costello
Marvin Gaye
Miles Davis
Outkast
Prince
Sam Cooke
Sly and the Family Stone
Sonic Youth

I don't actually dislike these artists, but I think they're boring to see around so often.

[honeykid]

My 10. I dont' think I've repeated anyone elses, but if I have let me know. I'm more than happy to ban some more.

Billy Joel
Bob Marley
Dire Straits
Leonard Cohen
Radiohead
Red Hot Chili Peppers
Rush
The Smiths
Talking Heads
Van Morrison

[Godoggo]

No problem, Christine and Jiraffe. Maybe next time. :)

[Sedai]

[Miss Vicky]

I'm sitting this one out as well. I've got too much on my plate with a crazy work schedule and trying to watch 60s movies and HOF movies.

P.S. - You guys thought you were being smart by banning Tom Petty, but that would've been so simple to get around that it's not even funny. You see, Tom Petty (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Petty_discography#Solo_albums) is a solo artist with 3 albums, while Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Petty_discography#Studio_albums_with_the_Heartbreakers) is a band with 13 studio albums. :D

[honeykid]

I thought they were being silly by banning Tom Petty. It's not like he was going to win. I don't think The Travelling Willburys were banned either.

I did wonder whether anyone would go for Rush, but when they're nominated they seem to do fairly well, so I decided to make sure. :D I was thinking of including a lot of those kinds of bands, just to get rid of all of them, but I didn't feel comfortable using up so many choices just in case some of the worse stuff turned up.

[Swan]

I just wanted to see what Miss Vicky would nominate if she couldn't nominate most of her usual stuff. Doesn't matter now, I suppose.

[Miss Vicky]

I just wanted to see what Miss Vicky would nominate if she couldn't nominate most of her usual stuff. Doesn't matter now, I suppose.

But you got a taste of that already with the first female song tournament. :p

[Godoggo]

Dang it! Mistique got me. :p I thought Rammstein would sail through without being banned. I was maybe going with two songs from them!

[teeter_g]

I'll give this a go I suppose. LOL!


1. The Red Hot Chili Peppers
2. Kiss
3. Deep Purple
4. Yes
5. The Allman Brothers Band
6. Sex Pistols
7. The Foo Fighters
8. Green Day
9. Judas Priest
10. The Smiths


Hopefully there are no overlaps.


EDIT: I was just looking at the master list when I made this. Red Hot Chili Peppers wasn't listed. LOL! So as opposed to them lets go with Oasis at number 1 and I guess at number 10 we can put Crossfade.

[honeykid]

I put The Smiths and The Red Hot Chilli Peppers up, so you've got another chance to ban someone.

[teeter_g]

My changes have been made.

[mistique]

Dang it! Mistique got me. :p I thought Rammstein would sail through without being banned. I was maybe going with two songs from them!


http://media0.giphy.com/media/zSgWRDLwC1mJG/200_s.gif

[cricket]

Of course a Jets fan would knock out one of my choices!

[teeter_g]

Of course a Jets fan would knock out one of my choices!


Just out of curiosity, who was it?

[Godoggo]

I've got some good songs picked out. I'm letting go and having fun with this one. Of course that means I run the risk of going out round one, but I'm going for broke.

[cricket]

Teeter-Judas Priest, You've Got Another Thing Comin', which I actually thought was my best song.

[seanc]

I'm sitting this one out as well. I've got too much on my plate with a crazy work schedule and trying to watch 60s movies and HOF movies.

P.S. - You guys thought you were being smart by banning Tom Petty, but that would've been so simple to get around that it's not even funny.

You also could have nominated Sam Smith.

[mistique]

I've got some good songs picked out. I'm letting go and having fun with this one. Of course that means I run the risk of going out round one, but I'm going for broke.

How many songs are we going to nominate each?

[Godoggo]

How many songs are we going to nominate each?

If no one else joins up it will most likely be 10 songs each, 11 for some.

I'm missing two bands from the master list, so I have to check and see which ones.

[teeter_g]

How long before we know?

[cricket]

When does the next tournament start?

[honeykid]

10 or 11? Damn it. I thought someone mentioned 16. I'm going to have to do some culling.

[Chypmunk]

I've already sorted out two tracks for this ... extrapolating from that I'll be ready to start nominating about Tuesday :D

[Godoggo]

I don't think anyone is going else is going to join, so I need someone to assign all the players (including me) a number 1-12. I need someone else to do this because you have no idea what I'm doing and that makes it fair. I'll accept the first list I get. All the players are listed in the first post.

[Godoggo]

Swan was first and sent me this:

Sexy Celebrity 4
Mistique 6
Cricket 8
Sedai 1
Swan 7
Gbgoodies 12
Godoggo 10
Chypmunk 3
HoneyKid 5
Monkeypunch 2
Slappydavis 9
Teeter 11

I'll tell you what it means in a sec. I have a phone call.

[Swan]

Okay MS. POPULAR, we'll wait!

[Godoggo]

1-8 which would be Sedai, Monkeypunch, swan Cricket, Mistique, Sexy, Chipmunk & HoneyKid have 11 noms.

Slappy, Teeter, gbgoodies and I have 10.

I seriously thought of banning Deee-Lite because I figured that song would appear.

I was seriously holding my breath. I thought someone might ban it.

I like that song, so I didn't. I only really wanted to ban stuff that I didn't care much for, didn't like, or thought was getting overplayed.

Oh, God, why is Youtube suddenly playing that "White Rabbit" song by Jefferson Airplane now... I'm searching for songs and it automatically started it to torment me.

[Godoggo]

Ha! It's as if youtube knows.

Damn! Black Betty is a fantastic song. Wish I would have thought of it.

Frankie Valli-Can't Take My Eyes Off of You (http://tinyurl.com/lvytdqt)



This is one of my all-time favorite songs. :up:

[Sexy Celebrity]

After all this banning, everyone's trying to nominate stuff that could win.

[gbgoodies]

HK's nominations.

A-ha - Take On Me (m.youtube.com/watch?v=djV11Xbc914)


I thought songs that already won a tournament weren't allowed?

[Sexy Celebrity]

DAMMIT! Can't nominate "Summer of 69" by Bryan Adams.

[honeykid]

I thought this'd be a great tournament for me, as it'd mean there'd be a lot more songs that I like. Or, at least, not as many as usually annoy me/I've not heard but are by great artists. We'll see how that pans out. :D

[honeykid]

I thought songs that already won a tournament weren't allowed?
Did it win? I knew it'd done well. I don't mind swapping it for something else, but I thought (in this tournament) that if it wasn't on the banned list, it was available.

I don't know about this tournament, but I thought that was a rule for most song tournaments.

[honeykid]

It usually is but, as I said, I thought SC had posted the list of previous winners to enable people to ban.

It won Song Tournament #3


Song Tournament 3 Winner:
"Take On Me" - a-ha
Nominated by Mmmm Donuts

[Godoggo]

It is HK. I did say specifically that any song not banned was allowed. I think it won a specialty tournament also. Plus there have been so many tournaments and I think only three of us would have been in that one.

[gbgoodies]

It usually is but, as I said, I thought SC had posted the list of previous winners to enable people to ban.


I don't know if it's a rule for this tournament or not. I thought it just made sense being that this is a "banned" tournament. The idea is to have new songs, not the same old stuff that always gets nominated, and stuff that already won. Personally, I think even the runner-ups should be banned for this tournament, but it's not my decision to make.

I guess you should ask Godoggo.

Well, the original idea of the banned tournament was to not allow any artist who'd previously been nominated. But that's some undertaking and I don't blame Godoggo for not wanting to go through all the tournaments noting each artist.

We could do a tournament where we try and do that and use an honour system and hope that no one does it accidently either but, again, that's quite an ask. Especially if we suddenly discover/remember something that's already in the tournament has been up before.

[Swan]

I decided I'm going to do something a bit fun and nominate all the songs I can play on piano. That's 9 songs. I'm giving Godoggo my other two.

Personally, I don't care if songs that have been nominated are nominated again, but I think nominating a song that already won a tournament is an unfair advantage.

But like I said, it's not my decision to make, so whatever Godoggo says is the official rule.

[Chypmunk]

Surely you could upload links to you actually playing them as well ;)

I never said I could play them well. :D

[Chypmunk]

Would it matter? :)

[cricket]

Next time He can nominate only songs he can play the skin flute to, and he can nominate everything.

[Godoggo]

I pretty much said it was ok in my former post. I just don't see it as an advantage since everything has changed since that last tournament. As I said only three of us participated in that tournament and now there are completely different people with different tastes. Chypmunk, Slappy & Monkey have just started playing in tournaments and Sedai and Mistique have never been in one.

If it had just one something recently, I'd be inclined to agree but if anything HK is in danger of people not voting for that song based on the fact that it won before regardless if they like it better or not.

I mean other people can chime in, but I don't see it as problematic. Besides it's been long enough I feel like a ton of other stuff is more played out than that song. The purpose was for people to ban stuff that they were sick of or thought would be as easy win. It says something no one thought of that band or that song.

[gbgoodies]

I tried to keep it all non-country, so we'll see what happens this tournament.

I did a quick check to make sure that I didn't nominate any banned artists, and that I didn't duplicate anyone else's nominations. If I missed something, let me know.

The soundtrack from what movie?

Fast Times at Ridgemont High.

[Sexy Celebrity]

Swan just told me privately that if I don't get out of GB's mind, she'll probably call the cops on me.

[Swan]

:D

[gbgoodies]

Fast Times at Ridgemont High.


I vaguely remember that movie, but I probably haven't seen it in over 20 years. Is that the movie where Sean Penn orders a pizza to his classroom, and Ray Walston threatens the students in his class with a gun?

[Sexy Celebrity]

Oh my God. She did. She called the cops on me. They arrested my mind. I can't think! I need bail money.

[gbgoodies]

Swan just told me privately that if I don't get out of GB's mind, she'll probably call the cops on me.


It's not such a bad thing actually. If you're in my mind, you might actually nominate songs that I enjoy listening to. Maybe I can even get you to become a country music fan. :D

[Sexy Celebrity]

There were thousands of dead fast food restaurant managers in GB's mind. She's a psycho. She kills them all in her fantasies. It was worse than that time I mindmelded with Swan and found all those dead classmates with butter knives stuck in them.

AWWWW YEAH TEETER JUST WON THIS THREAD!

[Sexy Celebrity]

It sounds dangerous down there. :eek:

It was scary. I had to run out quickly -- you were in there and you thought I was a waiter and you wanted a new milkshake. You had chocolate, but you ordered strawberry. It was like a Freddy Krueger nightmare -- you tried to drown me in a giant glass of strawberry milkshake. Actually, I didn't run out -- I swam out. I was a rare survivor. There were dozens of other waiters floating around lifelessly in the giant milkshake.

[Swan]

I give Dragula my blessing. It deserves to win this tournament.

[Godoggo]

I'll make a master list of the nominations after I get home and settled in. It will be confusing for those who haven't nominated yet.

It's been a loooooong day. I need to decompress for a tiny bit.

[gbgoodies]

I added the links for my nominations, and I changed the song Midnight Confessions to something more recent. I have no idea how popular the band is, or how that song will do. I heard them sing it on one of those late night talk shows and I liked it. :)

I avoided nominating a bunch of country songs, so we'll have to wait and see how it goes this time. If my songs still go out in the first round, I may as well go back to country music for the next tournament. :shrug:

YeAh, I just went ahead and nominated exactly what I wanted to this time and didn't worry about if it was a song that could go the distance. I'm curious about how this all goes down.

I just gave you one of mine, Slappy because Swan gave me two of his.

I doubt I will be able to be on tomorrow as much as I was today, so I'll be back tomorrow night.

[Slappydavis]

Sweet. I'll make sure to take good care of it.

Until it's voted out first round.

Help! How do I link the songs? When I do all the videos show up in my post, and I don't want that.
When adding the links change "www" to "m" in them.
