\'riding over a hill on a pony to see the sunset\' ruins Question Mark for me....

I think TPalms has since changed the lyrics....or does occasionally....to "riding over a hill on a Harley..."

personally I like the original sentiment.....

hence the one problem with the voting being done this way.... if people know how many votes each song has...plus who voted for it (not that who voted really matters, it is cool nonetheless), I think people are gonna start holding their votes to the end where all the impact is.....

i don\'t think that\'s a problem at all... it\'s like a team rallying to win a game in the bottom of the 9th..

does it say a lot about me that this matchup is causing most of the stress in my life the past few days?

There\'s only a couple of close battles right now (notably Garcian vs. Question Mark), but as the rounds progress the matchups will get tighter and tighter. We need a tiebreaking procedure in place before a tie happens!

Tiebreaking procedure suggestions:

1. Have Tim play each tune at his first solo show after the tie occurs, and have the people there vote on which song sounds better solo acoustic.
1a. If the crowd at the show is still tied, one person from each side will compete in a Guinness half-yard chugging contest.

2. Four people voting from each song play in a poker game at pokerstars.com Winning player sees his/her song advance.

3. Have everyone involved meet up for a game of bombardment, one song\'s team vs. another.

4. The winning song is the one with more combined posts among its voters.

5. Somebody dig up Teddy Torres and have him decide.

6. Each side must solicit funds from the voters. The side that collects more money wins. All proceeds go to the Save-The-Breakfast fund, less 20% that goes to support .info

1a. If the crowd at the show is still tied, one person from each side will compete in a Guinness half-yard chugging contest. I like it but i think there is a problem with the fact that it is a breakfast tourney. letting a tie be determined by a solo timmy performance seems odd to me [/I]

2. Four people voting from each song play in a poker game at pokerstars.com Winning player sees his/her song advance. I would be all in for that. but since i suck at hold\'em, it would suck to not be able to participate [/I]

3. Have everyone involved meet up for a game of bombardment, one song\'s team vs. another. bombardment = dodgeball? [/I]

4. The winning song is the one with more combined posts among its voters.
most realistic....[/I]

5. Somebody dig up Teddy Torres and have him decide. who\'s teddy torres???[/I]

6. Each side must solicit funds from the voters. The side that collects more money wins. All proceeds go to the Save-The-Breakfast fund, less 20% that goes to support .info .info would only get 20%?[/I]

Teddy Torres is an old school PB fan. He went to UMass for a while and ran the original PB web page: http://www.psychedelicbreakfast.8m.com
