Yes, you heard me right. A tournament.
It would work like a typical torurnament. A bracket of x amount of people (ideally 16, but 8-12 would work too) would climb up the tournament ladder. The combatants would be paired off into 1 on 1 matches. Each match would have a different song: for instance, Rusty vs. Phazon would do Bumper Crop Bump, while Levus vs. Axelrod would do Jewel Man. For the sake of consistency, all matches would require the original soundfont. All entries would be released by a certain date (say, 2 weks into the future). After that date, there would be a voting period where the members of the community would vote for the winning song. The match would progress after that, with one clear cut winner at the end.
How does that sound? Post any opinions or thoughts here. I'll set it up if there's enough demand.

Yes I do like this idea. I would compete in this even if I knew I would lose. Song choice would be mutually decided by the two combatants yes?

I like the idea and I would definitely participate In my opinion, it'd also be a good rule if the combatants had to release their songs on the same day. In my opinion it would give an unfair advantage to someone that waits with releasing his/her song. I think the decission about the song should be made by a person that is neutral to the match. Also, it might be necessary to be reduced to songs that midis are available of, since not everybody can work by ear... At least, that's what I personally think would balance the tournament out.

Except, are there any free MIDI-readers? PLus, I can probably get a sheet for almost every (mario) song.

All righty then. Tomorrow I'll post a thread with the rules. As far as deciding the songs, I think I'll do it, because having a contestant choose it wouldn't be fair...that's just my take though.
