Sorry guys, I was out for a while today but I'm back now. Nobody's nominations were too late so don't worry. I initially though we had a 64 song cap but I don't believe that's the case anymore. I'll be editing the final few songs into the bracket and then we should be all set
EDIT: We currently have 93 songs which means some songs would get a free pass to the second round. This is a bit more complicated than the tournaments i've done before, so what do you guys want to do?
Round up 35 more songs?
It's hard to say if it would be any easier, but it would probably be more fair than other options.
@Jeremy
I don't think the bracket allows me to have a 3 or 4 song match. I also randomize the seeding just to make it fair.
At this rate, we could either find 35 more songs to make it an even 128, or we could just let some songs have a free pass into the second round. Whatever your thoughts are, just let me know. Also, if anyone knows how to work the brackets at Challonge better than I do, that would be helpful.

I guess add more songs. I would rather new people nominate instead of existing people having 5 nominations each, though.
What about 96 songs split across two brackets, that would be incorporated into one as the tornament progresses, and have two or four pairings each round? One bracket would have 64, and the other 32. Do the first round of the 64 bracket to narrow it to 32, and the combine those brackets to make a 64 bracket.
@Intrepid
Thank you, thank you, thank you. That's a great idea and that means we only need 3 more songs.
So basically, due to limitations of the bracket, i'll split it into a 64 song bracket and a 32 song bracket. It will still be a little complicated, but it should work and it will be quicker than nominating 35 more songs. We still need 3 more songs but it will be a first come first serve deal unless you have not previously nominated any songs.
I'm just going to cut off the nominations right here thanks to @Sheldon for nominating those. I'm pretty frazzled but I should be able to start this thing soon. Since we have so many songs, I may post 3 matchups on the days I update instead of 2, or at least until we get down to 64 songs. Let me know if you want me to keep updating on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, or if you want different days.
@Emaan
Don't worry, I got it covered
No way I was going to let Good Egg Galaxy be left out.
Well, I think that Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays work well, and if there are no objections I think we should stick to that. But whatever everyone else wants, and what's easiest for you, @CapnPancakes.
Rats. I hadn't added my last song. Oh well. This will be fun either way.
I foresee what you'll do there.

@Sheldon
If you had to pick 1 song out of the 3 you nominated, which one would you pick?
Pfft, is that even a contest? (If I was picking, I'd go for the Mutant mudds song, cough cough. :3)
Also, @Cap'n your sig implys that the "Best Title Screen Music" thread is still going, were you just leaving it that way untill you got the "Best first level music" thread going, or just forgot to change it?
I foresee what you'll do there.
