Hey Claude, if you do get enough, could you pool them and make a bracket of 32?  Or I suppose you could try to do the original of 16 and then another of 8, or something similar to that.  Just a thought :)

The plan right now is to go ahead with the original 16 as a separate entity.  If we get enough to do another we will and then pit the two winners against each other.  I don't really want to increase the voting commitment too much; this way you only have to vote within your bracket and then again in the final showdown.  I'm hoping to get another 16 for the sake of symmetry and fairness but if it takes too long we may have to go with just eight; we'll see.

You should have used the Jungle Book one, Phil :)  That one was funny.  The Hotel California one is interesting too.

I like "Bare Celebrities", but reckon that it has already had quite a bit of exposure, so to speak; "Taj Mahal Tundoori" is one that is always well-received when I play it, but has had pretty much no attention at amiright.

PS "Cross Product" is brilliant... Damn.

It's not looking too good for a second bracket.  So far by my count we have Adagio, Guy, Diva, myself, and possibly Rick and kinda possibly Agrimorfee.

Is the reason that there is not more interest in a second bracket the status of the first six writers who signed up?  

Those six writers look very, very intimidating; but, if the bracket does happen, I will sign up as well.

Also, Claude, I like your parody of the month and year ideas.

Quoting:
Way to go, Diva!  It should be fun, not popularity or intimidation.   ;D

  ;D I do hope that you join us, Rick. I know what you mean by someone picking the music.  I wanted to ask someone too.
(If we ever get a second bracket going.)

I'll go ahead and sign up for the second bracket. Still have to choose a song, though....

Put me down as "Michael McVey".

As far as an update, there's really not much to add that's not already here in this thread or the other.  With wdh, we have I think ten people for the second bracket.  For it to come out correctly and be fair I'd like to get up to sixteen so I plan to give it a few days.  I gotta go somewhere in a few minutes so I plan to put up the voting thread for the first bracket later tonight and then possibly the entry thread for the second bracket even though it's not filled yet just to get things moving.  I don't want to combine the two because I don't want to increase the voting commitment so the plan now is to (1) Get the voting started on the first bracket tonight.  (2) Get the entries started on the second bracket tonight and (3) Get the second bracket filled in the next few days.  Again, once both brackets are finished the winner of each bracket will face off against each other.  If anyone has any suggestions I am open to them but I'm hesitant to change much without a pretty strong consensus since I don't want this to take forever.  So get your songs ready; you should be able to put em up tonight or tomorrow at the latest.
