(can **everyone** please read this all the way through, especially if you haven't participated in one of these tournaments before)It's time for the return of Summertime Madness! This time we have not one but two hosts, as fellow puppet pfp user zippy and I both make our Madness hosting debut in style . In STM, each person sends a list of songs they've recently been enjoying, and people will be chosen in a random order to have their top 4 songs picked for the tournament (this means everyone, no matter when they submitted, has equal opportunity to receive their preferred selections). Once the songs have all been revealed, each seed (list of songs) will be put up for ranking by anyone who wants to participate (you can still send a list if you didn't submit any songs - the more the merrier!). Once each seed has finished, the top songs will be used in a final rankdown to determine the winner of Summertime Madness 2023! This is the third STM we've done in the rankdown format (and the ninth rankdown madness overall), but we always have some amount of newbies, so here are the instructions: ( if you're not totally familiar with the format, please read through all of the instructions before sending) 1) Pick at least 4 songs (you can choose as many as you want, but people tend to provide 8). These must be songs you've been enjoying between March and now (that have not been previously submitted), but they don't have to have been released in that time period. However, it's generally preferred that the songs are from the artist's most recent era if they weren't released in the last year or so, and most songs released prior to 2022 won't be counted. If you have any questions about specific songs, please PM us and we'll tell you whether they're eligible. A complete list of previously submitted songs will be included in a link at the bottom of the post below this, so please check them before sending anything. When submitting, please mention the lead artist(s), any featured artists and the song title (for example, Sam Smith f/ Koffee & Jessie Reyez - Gimme). 1A) NO ARTIST CAN APPEAR MORE THAN ONCE IN YOUR PICKS AS A LEAD/CO-LEAD CREDIT. Note that this restriction does not extend to features, i.e. an artist can appear as a lead and a feature in the same list. 2) When you have narrowed down your songs, please send them to both aerodynamite (@\aerodynamite) and zippy (@\zippulse) in a PM, not in this thread. (Please be sure to send to both of us in the same PM, otherwise your submission may not be counted.) Ensure you do this by 11:59 PM CT (UTC -5) on June 23 2023, as there's a lot to get through in this tournament. If you are absolutely unable to enter your songs by then, we'll need to know when you can before the deadline. 3) When you send your songs to us, place your songs in order of preference, as each person will only have four songs in the tournament, with the songs outside your top 4 being alternates if someone else has the same song as you. If more than those initial songs are needed, we'll PM you, and you'll need to reply ASAP to ensure you have four songs when the tournament starts. 4) DO NOT tell people what your songs are. The mystery is both a levelling factor and part of the fun. 5) During the ranking portion (after the songs have been revealed), you rank each song from #1 to #[however many people send songs], with #1 being your favorite. You do not have to submit songs in order to send a list for the rankdowns. Posters in recent Madness games have been quite courteous and friendly to each other, so at this point I don't think we need to remind people to not engage in fights over who submitted/tanked what for whatever nefarious reasons. You all realize by now that this is a game where the goal is for the Pulse community to come together and share our highly diverse personalities and music tastes. Let's keep it peppy and positive, like it has been. Main tags (from recent tournaments): One-time tags (this is the only time we'll tag everyone, but if you want to be tagged in future reminders just ask):

I have talked to my friend aerodynamite a lot about the rankdowns and Madness tournaments we've been a part of. When he asked me about co-hosting Summertime Madness, I was hesitant at first thinking it would take up a lot of my spare time, but then I thought about the perks of co-hosting and how I could make things easier for both of us. In the last couple of weeks, I have been doing some coding to make a program that can handle data from Excel and generate all the seed playlists from user-submitted songs. I also did more coding for my personal rankdown in order to handle the rd data and generate preview and reveal posts with accurate information. This will surely save time for both of us when getting the results ready for all the seeds.

good to see you're carrying on my Madness tradition of "automate as much as possible because this is way too much work otherwise"
