    Let's just keep it simple, like Mayday originally had. To many people wanting to many changes, add tours, blah, blah, blah. Maybe just do a league for each tour. It is all about fun.

    Thanks for sharing.

    I'm having tons of fun already!

    I agree. I think what we've got right now is great. :)

    Just to be clear - no one has suggested changing anything. Just adding a playoff system because we have five different groups of people playing -

    The way we are playing this tour wouldn't really work for only a 7 show schedule, which is all we have right now for next year. So, what better way to make use of the January Aus/NZ shows?

    Yeah, I know nothing about what we're already doing would change... but adding playoffs is confusing to me. :lol: But that's just my own opinion. Obviously, I would go with the flow of whatever happens. :)

    We are up to 9 in the "reserves".

    Gossard Conference has 1 pick left in Round 7
    Ament Conference is closing up Round 5
    McCready Conference is closing up Round 6
    it sounds like the Cameron Conference is in Round 5.


    So for tracking, I can try to wire together a google doc to track it live. So you have a link in your favorites, and you can check the "scores" at any time. I will even update live when I am not at the shows. Does that sound like the best option?
    I would include the Cameron on the doc as well (and the other conference if/when it starts).


    I think that sounds good. BTW, our official setlist is that which SEA posts the next day right?

    So your saying 5 division winners auto bid championship pool with remaining 7 playing in. I like that too. Whoever is keeping score updated will of course have the most say.

    Only bug aboo I see is I thought the simplicity and excitement of a single elimination per show would add a special twist to the playoffs maybe just in the championship bracket?

    And of course the prize for winning the first annual PJ fantasy league is the band lets you hang out with them VIP style at the show of your choice with on stage/side stage all access tix and you get to compose the set list for that evening and receive an autographed event poster.RiGHT ????

    Yes, I like the single show excitement, too. Just not sure it fits with the way we're playing through the US tour. It will turn into who has the most songs that get played at all. If so, then I want Even Flow and Daughter, etc... and that's not the way anyone is drafting

    And yes, we should work on ironing out our championship prize package with the band. I'm sure it will be something like that. I'll get right on it... :lol:
    Good points on all.

    Thats what we are doing, barring any glaring omissions/errors that we all agree on (and tags dont count).


    As far as playoffs... We should definitely concentrate on making this work and enhance this "League" as much as possible for the 48-60 participants. We will finish drafting, and get the scoring tracker online. Probably be starting a 5th Conference as well so we will need to fire them up. Shouldnt be too long until we are just sitting here waiting for shows. At that time we can figure out a "playoff" or something. Simpler the better. I would be down with just the Conference winners each pledge a poster or something and carry their identical rosters into the Aussie tour, and the same scoring applies (0-7 points/song)
