09.25.20 | Results from Round 3 Group B are up here but will be updated on that page soon
Transparency announcement ! We need a total of 8 artists (4 matches) for Round 5 to be able to happen, but this will obviously not be possible with the ten winners from this round. Therefore, there will be a Round 4 Part B - an elimination round between the 4 winners from this round with the *smallest margin of victory*
Some cutting edge shit yo |

This tournament could have been about two things: finding the most popular band on sput or making users suffer. The most popular band will win no matter what, so...

Also lol that 35-3 win of ISIS versus Leprous in the first round (and the 34-8 win last time). Pure domination. Hopefully they can carry (ha) it on for the rest of the competition and win the thing. |
Icebloom
09.25.20 | Wait the matchups aren't random? Why not? |
JohnnyoftheWell
09.25.20 | So - transparency warning! - there were three options here:
1 - follow a traditional single elimination tournament mapping where every contestant proceeds down a linear path and only faces challengers from other groups when there is no-one left from their group. this couldn't happen because A) it relies on having a seeding system to keep things vaguely balanced, and we never introduced this and B) we broke out of powers of 2 when we added round E
2) randomly generate each round independently
3) curate each round to ensure a consistent level of challenging or polarising decisions within each round and keep the contest both alive/exciting and roughly balanced between genres rather than leaving this to chance
tried 2) for a few draft matches but it just wasn't as fun, so 3) won the day. that committee announcement at the top each round is no joke! |
