I'm with VioletlightHeron... Put the Top 32 from this years tourney in as the top seeds next year, and then have 32 new songs.

Over time we would have all of the songs ranked, and could start to root for the Cinderella teams; have odds-on favourites, etc!

Do you realize how long it would take to actually rank the entire Hip catalogue using this head-to-head format?! hock:

The head-to-head is not what takes the time... it is the length of time that each match takes...

I did say this head-to-head format. And I assume you were referring to it as well in your original post.

But anyways, ranking Hip songs in order from 1-130 or so songs, resulting from the process of pitting 2 songs against each other, would be an arduous task, to say the least.
