There will never be another era like the Golden Age of Hollywood.  We didn't know how to blow up buildings then so we had no choice but to tell great stories with great characters.-Ben Mankiewicz

No one else does either, Harry.  Were adding two points to one name and taking two points away from another name, once a day.  It's just play and doesn't mean anything.  You can make your choices based on any criteria you choose, including complete randomness.  One a name gets either 20 points or 0, it's out!  Join us and have fun!

See, Harry?  This is where the names go after reaching 20 or 0 points.  As you can tell, it's not quite completely random, but close!

Still wrong Harry ;D
You have to add or subtract the 2 points to the same composer

For instance B+2, C-2

Let's hope my next contemporary composer fares better than Ligeti. Otherwise, next time I won't bother and will just add someone than I can send to hell. >:D
