I'm excited about this tournament, let's hope that it meets a better ending compared to the earlier one.

Yeah, that's why i'm doing the old tournament rules and probably not going to 256 videos.

Yes, I understand your point. By the way, why is the limit of videos set to stone as 128 or 256? Just wonderin'.

2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256

As Quinnsy pointed out, its because they're both divisible by 8, 4 and 2, which is why they're used by most tournaments (the rounds and matches divide nicely)

128 (elimination round 1)
64 (elimination round 2)
32 (elimination round 3)
16 (sweet 16)
8 (elite 8/quarter finals)
4 (final 4/semi finals)
2 (finals)

256 is the next number in the sequence and twice the amount of 128, so the tournament might go to that number just in case there's more demand.

Okay, that makes sense.

only 37 videos so far? Gee, I think we're probably just gonna go to 128 on this.

Let's see if a few more people get interested in this.

smaller is better, ryan. more options just means more time between songs that people care about.
