Coming In February, it's the all time Pre-1947 Tournament. We have a full 40 record field with the ELITE 8 from each of the 5 Pre-1947 tournaments that we ran. So there will be a preliminary round with 8 groups of 5 items each to knock out 8 items to get
down to 32, and then the usual tournament. Hopefully Bill decides to vote since he has some records in here including his February 2023 winner, "Java Jive." It would also make the tie breakers much easier if we have 9 voters rather then 8.

Here are the combatants:
