Do another Death/Thrash/Black metal game of sorts, possibly with an affordable prize at the end... Is anyone interested?

Of course, there's always the poetry stand off between Gast and Aaron that never happened. It's just that they don't seem to care, or are already past the enjoyment of it, or something. But, ah well.

My idea was to compile a list of everyone's favorite bands again, kinda like the silly voting tourney we had before, but this time, the results would be random. Totally random, and totally not based on how loved or unloved a band is. Here's why... Ya know fantasy football? Well, I've seen it before, like at gamefaq.com where they have tourneys (where people vote on the characters... go figure.) and before everything starts, you predict the winners of every match. You get more points when someone you predict to win does just that. So, it'd really all focus on you guys, and your luck at this particular game.

And of course, at my own expense, I'd find some sort of album, or something, and give it to the winner. Maybe a $20 shopping spree at ebay? I dunno... JUST PLAY MY GAME, PAWNS. :shock:

I mean... I'd love to see a nice turn-out for this one. :D

No limit, by the way, on how many people can join.

If people are interested, I'll start working on the layout for the whole thing.

You were always the guy who made the threads, not us. I've got dozens of lyrics ready to go if you ever make it.

Talk to Gast, and have him confirm he's still down, and we'll finish that one off then.

Decide:

1: A date
2: # of voting days
3: How many lyrics each will post

And post your conclusions here, and I'll act accordingly. You guys got this far, I wanna see this one end strong and on YOUR (You/Gast) terms, especially in the finals, AKA the most important match.

I've tried something like this before. It was in a microeconomics course and my teacher called it fun with game theory (it's about guessing the other competitors 'average' answears given some incentive- and rationality constraints... A nerd I am). If I understood the rules here correctly however you can have more than one winner..?

Anyway. It sounds funny.

Hmmm... well, if there was more than one winner, I suppose they'd just split the prize, or they could compete in some way to eliminate the tie, or something...
