70s KnockOut Cup- has started!

Postby never/ever » 01 Dec 2018, 21:16

The first round of this quickfire elimination challenge is up.

The thirteen winners of their ties and the three ' best' winners (i.e. the losers with the narrowest loss and, if similar, with the highest number of individual votes) will reach the second round.

I would like to tally that round on Friday December 7 (at night here in Oz) and ask the winners to submit their next track by Sunday December 9 so i can put up the following round that day?

Much appreciated how you responded to the 70s Cup, including the voting- hope you can stick with this one to see this year out in a good way too!

You've found a way to get to 16 - well done Maarts!

I reckon I'm already in trouble and the voting hasn't even begun!

Honest to God G- I have used an online random draw generator and used the tenth draw for this format!

What if there are ties? - obviously both go through in the first round, but what about after that?

I'll choose which one I like the best.

I hope it won't come to that but if so, i can ask for a quickfire 24-hour one track shoot-off between the players involved.

I wouldn't mind your taking that prerogative, considering the amount of work you're doing.
