"What is the Most IDM Thing" 2010 Bracketology

Well at long last the opening rounds are here and tournament play has officially begun! The top 64 teams were voted on by you and I and are now seeded 1-16 in four divisions. Here's a look at the bracket and how the teams have been seeded:

So, scroll through the poll and simply pick the winner of each match. The winner will advance to the next round and so on until we have crowned the most IDM thing of 2010. Each round lasts about a day so I'll close the poll and start the next round around this time tomorrow.

We have some very compelling matchups so don't miss out on any of the action!

GO!

a small reminder

Ulillilililila is taking an early beating, could be one of the biggest upsets in tournament history! Strandbeest drew a tough matchup with factories at night but came to dance, rest assured! unexploded WW2 bombs... dont sleep on them, they have a lot of poise! could go off any minute!

Some of those were tough decisions.

Carl Sagan must get through to the next round

you better tilt the pepper shaker or else i'm voting bowie

In previous years we established that the following things don't qualify as "IDM":

• References to actual electronic musicians (too tautologous and literal)
  
• References to sex and girls (the lack of will always be more IDM)
  
• The latest meme that you think is funny
  

I'm seeing examples of all the above in this year's matchup which leads me to think we have n00bs stinking up the joint as usual. This is for "The Most IDM Thing" guys. Stay focussed.

Picard is giving the Fibonacci Sequence a real run for its money too.

fuck me there's some epic matches in there.

ulillillia and hawking are walk-ins (i'm sure ulillillia will gain over time, it takes him ages to do anything).

go sagan! go mandelbulb!

and carbon nanotubes and david bowie in space, wtf happened to you?

People not voting for Ulillillia can only be people too lazy to have ever checked out the website.

For God's sake read the website and make an informed choice

"Sitting down in the shower" - what's this faggot bullshit? Thats got nothing to do with IDM and everything to do with being some kind of emo faggot pussy.

ulillillia is a huge faggot. he's chiptunes.

chiptunes is somebody writing a novel with 8bit RPG references and HTML colour codes because they're being an ironic hipster.

Ulillillia did it because he has aspergers and is actually obsessed with that shit. That's fucking IDM.

Excellent beginning matchups

TRUTH

edit: toward AW

ullillilililila losing to whaaaaaa??????? give me a fucking emo-tard break.

Look at this fucking thing

Don't you want to hear the music that goes with that?

wtf how did pupils not make it

in the interest of stirring up some shit, these things had the votes to get in but were rejected

atheism - bear walking on two legs - chimpanzees knowing American sign language - david duchovny masturbating

'Mobius Strip' would lead to some very novel IDM-producing techniques, although it would be hard to know where to begin and where to end.

god, i'd love to see fractal broccoli (the correct name is romanesco broccoli btw) vs mandelbulb

and yeah where's duchovnywank? that surely had enough votes to get in?

most of the ones i just voted for are coming 2nd. tells you how idm i am...

i did vote for attenborough though. come on you slag!

fuck it, Ulillillia better win. Have you looked at his 'compatibilty/motive system'?

It is beautiful.

Theory of affector-splitting: "affectors split into multiple smaller attributes must have their values total the original". The affector for the case of something being exhausting to do as mowing the grass is for me (in section 5.1 above), this may be -4 as is. It could be split up into 2 smaller attributes - the stress it has on the body (a -5 affector), and the fact I'm getting exercise (a +1.3 affector) combines to make -3.85 which, due to rounding, is close enough to -4.

i've started a mandlebulb track, not sure what a mandlebulb is though

Two mirrors in front of each other are confusing the hell out of Brutalist Architechture; its lack of details and angular geometries reflecting into infinity! an eyesore of a defeat.
