John,

Where do I go to see the playoff rules? I get this message on the fantasy site when I click on rules :

Warning: require(content.php) [function.require (http://www.houseofxon.info/dmbfantasy/function.require)]: failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /home/xon/public_html/dmbfantasy/index.php on line 7

Do we keep the same songs for the playoffs? Or do we have to pick again?

Joe

John,

Where do I go to see the playoff rules?

Do we keep the same songs for the playoffs? Or do we have to pick again?

Joe
oops... i forgot to link it.. thanks

whatever songs you had at the end of the tour are the songs you take to the playoffs. there's no more trades in the playoffs either.

[maya]

Luke's gotta do alot at his end to get the website right again. I don't have privelages to delete things.... but yes, i'm going to get him to do it tomorrow morning, which is tonight for you guys!

[Minarets#40]

ok so the results after the first show of the playoffs are:

Tgaucho - 12
Minarets#40 - 11
Martindcxle - 9
maya - 8
JamesM - 8
Senator12 - 8
wingnut73 - 8
Seanieb - 7
jsilvia2 - 7
Semper454 - 6
bradshaw06 - 6
taparoo - 5
sharvey - 5
broatchg - 4
ant_marching41 - 3
DMBgirl87 - 3

also, I've decided to suspend the rules on the tiebreaker, so both of those getting 7 points will move on. the way i see it, it's pretty lame to play well the whole tour, then lose in the playoffs because of a stupid tiebreaker in the first round.

good luck next show!

i'm loving the running commentary btw

I'm entertaining myself :lol i probably should be doing actual work... this is far more fun!

[maya]

YMDT - ZERO
Eh Hee - Nada!!!

It's a low scoring event here today on Night 2, with the band seemingly jamming out on every song :) (or maybe i'm just impatient)

The air is electric, lets hope the next song brings some suprises into the mix

[maya]

LIOG fits in nicely after Eh Hee, but still no points

[maya]

shotgun.... still nada

[Minarets#40]

times are getting desperate for JamesM

[TGaucho]

shotgun.... still nada

[maya]

John Mayer guesting on #41... still offering no relief for James unfortunately.... Tony really seems to be running away with this

[TGaucho]

that rotten sonofabitch

[maya]

goddamn John Mayer. What, he couldn't have flown up to fucking San Fran and guested?

i've seen him chug 2 litres of milk in an encore..... probably the best part of that night :lol but i've told you that already.....

[maya]

I love your edit :D

[TGaucho]

i've seen him chug 2 litres of milk in an encore..... probably the best part of that night :lol but i've told you that already.....

I love your edit :D
:evil

[maya]

he did WHAT?! That's the oddest thing i've ever heard

:evil

yeah in the encore, he came out with a bottle of milk and drank it all.. then goes 'milk was a bad choice!!' :lol

i may just be over my hatred of him Tony. I think i can start to listen to him again :D

[maya]

warehouse - 2 points to JamesM

[TGaucho]

yeah in the encore, he came out with a bottle of milk and drank it all.. then goes 'milk was a bad choice!!' :lol
that is simply beyond bizarre. I mean, obviously i get the reference, but still . . fucking odd
i may just be over my hatred of him Tony. I think i can start to listen to him again :D
he may be a repugnant scrotelicker for guesting tonight and not on Sat, but Try! is still one of the best blues records i've ever heard.

[maya]
