I know: I said that I would have managed the battle of the song in one thread only. Unfortunatly now I've come to a point where I need to share some issues with you and I can't do it in the main thread or it would become not manageable anymore. So I created this service topic that is meant to deal only with the organizational aspects of the game (while the main thread will continue to be used for the votes and comments on the music). Again, I don't mean to monopolize the forum; this is only done to make the game funnier and easier to play. I hope it doesn't upset anybody. We're appraoching the hardest sessions of the game and I thought that it would be good to have a place to get your feedbacks, proposals, suggestions and critics on the game. So this is going to be the place.
The impelling issue is related to how to form the groups in Phase III. As I stated in the opening post of the in thread, the 64 selected tracks will be grouped in 8 groups. But I don't want to do this alone.
Let me explain: I have here three "virtual boxes" 
. In this boxes the songs have been divided depending on the number of votes received in Phase one and balanced with some alchemy (too long to explain here but, believe me, I tried to be as fair as possible). Some of you should pick the songs from the virtual boxes to form the groups. To each song is associated a number (it’s random, no album or alphabetical order). Here are the boxes:
Virtual Box A: 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11-12-13-14-15-16
Virtual Box B: 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11-12-13-14-15-16-17-18-19-20-21-22-23-24-25-26-27-28-29-30-31-32
Virtual Box C: 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11-12-13-14-15-16
Whoever drops by is invited to pick two numbers from Box A, four numbers from Box B and two numbers from Box C. I will check the numbers and publish later the resulting group. This way the boy or girl that chooses the numbers will share with me the responsibility of forming the groups (and I won’t be the only one to be blamed if comes out a group with TFC, Superstitious, Tomorrow, LLAE, SFTD, Here comes the night, and so on…).
How to do it? Here’s a number choice example. I expect seven posts (from seven different persons), right here in this thread, like this:
Virtual Box A: 12 -14
Virtual Box B: 6- 16- 21- 32
Virtual Box C: 1- 9
Remaining numbers:
Virtual Box A: 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11-12-13-14-15-16
Virtual Box B: 1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11-12-13-14-15-16-17-18-19-20-21-22-23-24-25-26-27-28-29-30-31-32
Virtual Box C:1-2-3-4-5-6-7-8-9-10-11-12-13-14-15-16
The following user will choose the numbers among the remaining ones and paste the remaining numbers after his choices.
I hope it’s clear!
So, who’s the first brave and beautiful soul to put his/her hand in the boxes?
