I need to brag on my teammate @gno. I let him have free reign over booking the other. He has the whole list of names I haven't even heard of. The first one he picks gets an immediate trade offer. Good job.
I don’t understand the scoring out of ten thing we’re doing. Why would that change from round to round?
I don't see any reason why it should change round to round. Assigning a different score out of ten each round underlines how arbitrary it all is. I think it's better if we evaluate head to head for each matchup and say who we think did better in both categories without assigning an actual score. If the teams split the categories, explain where you think the bigger gap is and justify your vote that way.
Example:
Realism: team 1 Quality: team 2
Tiebreaker: realism is close, but I greatly prefer team 2's lineup, so they get the vote

even if they don't change, match-ups will be different each round. also someone can argue and defend their lineups and you might change your mind maybe?

i never did prop the round to round thing cause it didn't seem to have enough interest.
but i do think we should really consider taking the 3 categories aspect of it. lumping attendance into the same category as "realism" is asking for a lot of trouble.
Attendance Realism Quality
this would make sooo much more sense imo. down to prop it if theres interest.
edit: and in problem dog 's scenario of voting on preference instead of score based, this would solve ties.

My only issue with this is that I think all of the lineups in their current form would sell out Bonnaroo. So it's a wash there.

but like you said in your suggestion, you would then simply have to choose which is the more guaranteed sellout between the two. it's an aspect of the game we're all paying a lot of attention to, and contrary to some of the things i was saying before the game, it should be more of a moving scale where our performances in that category are measured against one another, not just a check box.

Very true. There wouldn't even need to be threads made you could just have everyone enter their scores at the beginning and simulate the bracket... which by the way could be really fun to watch play out but dont think thats what we want to happen.
