    Honestly out of all the albums he put out the past 10 years this album I probably have the least issues with if it wins. But it shouldn't win for the wrong reasons, like I stated people voting for it no matter what lol

    Maybe out of all of the suggestions, I take the 36-48 that are the most well received by critics and audience? I can go on AOTY and do some averaging out so that way it’s not 60+ albums to vote between

    How does this sound to everyone (tagging all those who suggested albums)

    Yeah that’s a good idea. We don’t wanna have too many albums especially since some of these albums suggested are pretty terrible (like Camila Cabello’s album) and have 0 chance of winning anyway

    Thats personal taste though.
    I agree btw its awful.

    But I think it should be more based on how many people (potentially) listened to it.
    It is a shame for unheard gems of course...

    Alright that’s how we’ll do it then. Suggestions will continue to stay open until the same time and then I’ll take the ones we have, make the finalists, and drop the bracket sometime during the day (in the USA, sorry @Michael Myers) on Dec 31st so voting can begin Jan 1st!

    Now, top 36 albums? 48? Meet in the middle in the low 40’s?

    That’s gonna be hard to do when most of the people on this forum have probably heard maybe 5 of these albums

    Having the albums Ranked too by review scores will also allow a way for seeds to have a purpose in this tournament

    We should probably lower it to 36 unless that would require some big standouts to get cut out

    I’m trying to think if TDOSS would even make the top 36 hahah it has a 50 critic score and a 49 audience score making the average 49.5, I feel like it would be ridiculous to have this tournament without TDOSS there considering that’s why half the forum is here

    You’ll probably just have to brute force that album in tbh that album has pretty low scores

    I only say critic scores in case of ties, any other album on this list could also have a 49 audience score so the critic score could determine what makes the cut/gets a higher seed

    Also, I think I’ll make voting begin January 7th. Gives everyone a week to familiarize themselves with the albums that make the finalist list and discuss

    The evil part of me wants TDOSS to not be on there at all but no one will participate unless it's in there so they can band together to make it win the bracket
