The Love & Heartbreak Song Tournament

http://www.movieforums.com/community/attachment.php?attachmentid=24088&stc=1&d=1454811795

Valentine's Day is just around the corner, and love is in the air, so this is a good time for a Valentine's Song Tournament. If you're in love, that means love songs. If not, heartbreak songs are eligible too. And for those of you who recently ended a relationship, or someone else ended one with you, breakup songs, and even kiss-off songs, are eligible too.

http://www.movieforums.com/community/attachment.php?attachmentid=24089&stc=1&d=1454811896

Please Note: There have been a lot of drop-outs from these tournaments recently, so if you're not planning to vote throughout the entire tournament, you're welcome to comment and join the discussion, but please don't join the tournament just to drop out later. It affects the flow of the tournament, and upsets the host.

Plus, due to the fact that it's unfair to the other members of the tournament, the new rule is that if you drop out, your songs will automatically be eliminated, and if necessary, whatever songs they're up against will get a free pass to the next round.

Rules:
All genres are eligible, with no limitations on genre, but the themes is Valentine's songs, as listed above. In addition, songs that are previous tournament winners and songs that are over 10 minutes long are NOT eligible.

I think it's safe to assume that everyone will be able to nominate at least eight songs, so you can start posting your nominations as soon as you join the tournament. Please keep your nominations in one post. You can edit your nominations up until the time the nominations close, but please make a new post to let everyone know that your nominations have changed.

Any song is allowed as long as you can provide a link to it. Everyone uses YouTube, but you can also link from other sites if you prefer, as long as they don't require anyone to sign up for the site to listen to the song.

To be fair to everyone, you must listen to both songs to vote. You must vote from the beginning of the tournament to continue voting throughout the tournament. Unless a tie-breaking vote is requested, anyone who hasn't voted consistently will not be allowed to vote in the final rounds.

If you have any questions, please ask.

What did How Deep Is Your Love lose to?
Kool & The Gang had to be on my list. It was either Cherish or Joanna. Cherish won me over.
The Glory of Love was the first song on my mind. I expect it to go all the way

I don't remember what it lost to. I will have to look. I think it was in one of the Getting To Know You tournaments - the second one.

I like "Cherish" better than "Joanna", but "Joanna" is pretty damn good. I love Kool & The Gang, though. So, anything by them is nice to see in one of these tournaments.

So, you think you are going to win this whole thing with Peter Cetera? We'll see. :)

It is the first theme in a long time where I really considered what I was nominating based on lyrics. I haven't the slightest idea how I will do, but these are all songs that are really good love songs, I think.

I actually have a lot of songs that I think are excellent love songs (lyrics wise, of course), but they are all "old-fashioned" (for lack of any other way to describe them - but I think you know what I mean). So, I tried to steer away from those (even though a couple of them still managed to sneak in and get nominated ;)).

No, I always vote based on which song I like better, regardless of the lyrics. But sometimes I'll use the lyrics to break a tie in my head if I like both songs equally.

Hmmm, maybe, although I don't like to commit to things and let people down. When does voting start/how often are rounds?

We'll probably have all the nominations in by tomorrow, and we can probably start sometime tomorrow afternoon or evening. There is one set of 8 matches per day, (16 songs), and the sets are open for 24 hours. (I can usually post the next set, and also leave the previous set open a little bit longer if you need a little bit more time, as long as it doesn't affect the next set of matches.)

I doubt I'd have the time. I'm leaving here in about 4 hours, and I have to get a lot done before then. Then I won't be back until around 7 EST. We had a family crisis. An elderly family member collapsed with a staff infection. We are checking her out of the hospital today, and we have to get her registered in the rehab hospital next. Before all that, I'll be at her house, tending to her bills, laundry, packing, etc . . . No computers until tomorrow late afternoon. I wish I had seen this earlier. Ooops!

I'm sorry to hear that. I hope she's okay.

Would it help if I give you an extra day to get your nominations together? If I know that you're definitely going to join, I can calculate that in when I figure out how many extra nominations we need. People will need time to get their extra noms together anyway.

But keep in mind that you would have to be here every day to vote. I don't know how busy you'll be caring for your family member, and family should always come first. Will you be here to vote every day too?

My exact schedule after today, is that I will be at my home for her two weeks of therapy there, and then I am her therapist for the final 3 weeks. The main hospital got the first week. So, that will be two weeks of free time for me. I have no idea how long this Valentine song tournament will last, but I plan on taking my computer to her home for those final three weeks. I will only be on late at night, but that should work, right?

Late at night isn't a problem because the sets will all be open for at least 24 hours. As long as you'll be able to vote every day, that should be okay.

With 128 songs, the first round should be 8 days, the second round should be 4 days, the third round should be 2 days, and then round four should be 1 day, followed by the final 8 songs, the final 4 songs, and the last 2 songs.

So 8+4+2+1+1+1+1=18 days, plus maybe one or two days in the middle somewhere that might end up being skipped for some reason. So you should figure about 20 days total for the whole tournament.

Next morning I couldn't remember what the songs were, but I remembered jotting something down in the dark, so I looked at what I had wrote the night before, but it was hard to read. Had I remembered the songs correctly? We'll see if you guys like them:p

Well that sounds easier than what I did to pick my noms. I scrolled through every song in my mp3 player, all 3356 of them, and made a list of possible noms. Then I listened to a bunch of songs that were my faves from that list, and narrowed it down. Then I kept narrowing it down until there were only 8 songs left.

But it doesn't look like anyone else wants to join, so if you all want to start posting your ONE extra nomination, that's okay. I'll add them all the list on the first page later, and also figure out who gets the extra two songs at that time.

02-08-16, 05:07 PM

Anyone who wants to give up their chance at a second extra song can let me know, and I'll remove their name from the randomizer. That way the people who want it most will have a better chance to get it.

I'll remove my name from the list too, so we're down to 1 out of 12 chance now. :) That wasn't exactly what I meant:p I meant if I got an extra song I would give that to Vamp. But it's cool that way too.

This was not easy. I had at least 13 other songs to use. I love soooo many love songs. If I've accidentally used someone else's song, it will be an easy fix. I will be back home around 7 p.m. EST. There were problems yesterday with the dip sh!ts that were to get her registered for the 2 weeks of rehab. Since I'm the only one allowed to check her out of the hospital, I told them I wouldn't be doing that until the rehab hospital got this stuff fixed today. So, one more day.

This first song has always been my favorite.

I have to double-check, but I'm pretty sure that all the nominations are in, and all of the links are working, (at least here in the U.S.).

7:00 PM Eastern Time sounds good to me if everyone is happy with that. It will give me time to double-check everything and get the first round of matches set up. (Plus get in some actual work before we start.)

Remember that each set will be open for 24 hours, so if you're not online at 7:00 PM, you won't miss your chance to vote. :)

Everyone can use these last few hours to make sure that you're happy with all your noms and links. Once we start, there won't be any more changes, (unless there are problems with links).

We already have all the nominations in, but if there are eight people who are willing to each give up one nomination, we might be able to make room for you.

I won't force anyone to give up any nominations, but if anyone wants to give up a nom so Tugg can join, just post which nom to remove here. (We might not get a full eight, but we might at least be able to get you a few noms.)

If not, then you're welcome to vote in the tournament.

If we can get you some noms, we were hoping to start this tournament in about 3 hours, so you would have to pick your noms quickly.
