    Maybe we can all pick 2 bands/artists each that we want to exclude from the competition.

    Like I could chose to make Oasis and Foo Fighters ineligible. Scotia could chose to make Take That and The Pogues ineligible. Minty could chose to make Ariana Grande and RHCP ineligible. Monaghan can chose to make Eminem and Nirvana ineligible.

    With around 16/20 players that makes 32/40 bands/artists ineligible to be chosen - meaning we are less likely to get repeated bands/artists.

    Congrats Pinstripe! Unlucky JC, was a * close one in the end.

    Cheers Keano for running it.

    yes , theres too much same artists for me * almighty oasis,RHCP, nirvana , need new stuff , some picks ive never heard have been really good .

    no sure its right place to say this but i think the new players in mafia would benefit from an old fashioned town v mafia game , marie wasn't sure at times with the characters and bluffs . minty was right too much emphasis is placed on characters now .

    Minty is hosting the next Mafia, not sure what he has in mind but I doubt it will have characters.

    Oh wow! This is already over. Didn't realize that this had finished andf the winner revealed.

    Congrats @Pinstripe & commiserations @JC Anton

    Thanks @Keano88 for running this.

    And am also in favour of making artists ineligible, as the best thing is finding new things, no having the same bands over and over. So think thats not a bad idea at all. :50: Maybe, it would be an idea to when announcing the next comp, whoever is runnin it, give those that want to take part 3 days to sign up and name their 2 ineligible artists, and after 3 days post a list with the ineligible artists, then have 4 days to pick an artist and song, go from there.

    Oh, and all previous winning artists are automatically ineligible.

    I liked Taz's themes cause you would always hear new bands that are good, like doing an Aussie one, girls only, 80's etc.

    I really like the idea of not allowing any previous winning band/artist and everyone getting to chose 2 bands to ban.
