Youth N Asia Posted November 1, 2008 Report Posted November 1, 2008 I'll take charge of it if people want to get it going. Probably a 32 or 64 bracket. We all know the rules, don't nominate too many things at once, let others get votes in. And any songs that are disputed are subject to being removed. if this takes off I'll set it up
