Hails and Ales

Death Metal World Cup

Hi everyone.

Just posting an update about what I’m currently doing over on Mastodon (though anyone on the Fediverse can join in because it’s cool).

I have decided that the real World Cup this year should be between death metal bands. I chose 32 bands and randomly paired them off against each other. The winners of each poll will advance to the next round which will also be randomised and so on, until a winner is crowned.

The first round is currently underway and it’s been fun. I’ll post another update at the end of the first round but for now here is a list of the involved in no particular order.

Hails!
