I noticed you have Match 20 flipped. I'm 2nd seed, kajota is 7th.

Azuarc - You have a great idea here, but you rely on everyone to be honest... which I think the majority will... and even those who aren't will eventually get theirs, I'm sure.

I like the idea of it basically being the NCAA meets Guitar Hero, the only thing I'd suggest (next time around) is maybe to have all of this information out to the public PRIOR to trying to get people to sign up? Ya might get more people interested that way... plus so far this looks like a success.. and ya know we'll gossip about it and be looking forward to the next one... so I think it's safe to say with a bit of tweaking here and there... you've got yourself a golden egg here.

My only question, must've missed it somewhere, is why you have the brackets named after the song brackets in GH2... but the songs we're playing don't reflect the same? Just curious.

Well around here for march madness you grab 10 bucks, throw it in a pot with all your friends, take the NCAA tournament bracket and make all of your picks....whoever comes the closest wins and takes all the money. Since I dont think we could bet cross country on this(although paypal makes it possible

) i think it'd still be interesting to see who comes the closest (and azuarc seems to be encouraging this, as he should, it's what march madness is all about!!!)

so here's my bracket, i wanted to pick more upsets, but with such a large difference in ranks it's kinda hard, zawisza is my dark horse tho, you gotta come through for me buddy!!!

I don't think a #1 seed can really be considered a "dark horse."

If we had more prep time before jumping in, I would have published the bracket and tried to get folks to make up their own predictions. You're still welcome to do so, of course. I'd post my own predictions, but, um, that would probably be improprietary. I shouldn't really have been in the tournament in the first place. (You are right about one thing: Emptyset will fill a wild card slot somewhere. If I end up with any other double defaults though, I'm going to have a wild card playoff out of all the folks who went down in round 1, so he might not end up *there*.)

To Matt276: In fairness, if I wanted to rate the brackets on 16 seeds like the NCAA instead of 8, Zawisza would be a 2 seed behind Kov. And I'm at work, so I don't have my list of songs in front of me and could be dead wrong, but I think Misirlou might very well be the song you'd end up playing in round 3 if you get that far. (EDIT: nope, it's in the round 3 Furious Fretwork final. You missed it by one, and get an FC-fest instead.)

Damn there goes my one chance.

On a good note the song i had to play for Round 1 I FCd for my very first time. Not to mention i had practiced the Star Power path (which i never do) 10 times before hand to memorize it. Using the SP Paths seem to be a very good idea that i was too stubborn to resort to until now.

Spoon:
I think I can take wealreadyknow. If only because I'm in AAA1 and he's in AAA2.

I could have a bad run though
