I like Chuckster's idea implemented as a Song of the Year contest. It gives a nice amount of flexibility that can be tailored to one's tastes and likes. I do think restrictions of some sort on nominating one's own past nominations should be in place. Admittedly, I'm not terribly fond of a "Battle of the Battles" contest.
If SotY does take place, I'm more in favour of a SotW point allocation system to determine winners as opposed to a strictly bracket system. Alternatively, songs can be divided into groups of 8 with the usual SotW point distribution in place to determine the top 4 songs that wll advance into the next round.
Some problems I can think of:
1) Not everyone has heard past nominations, particularly the ones that haven't placed at all since these wouldn't be on the SotW site, thereby making nominations for SotY difficult. (I need to bug Kaleb about those old nominations one day :P)
2) For newcomers, it would be intimidating to sieve through all the songs even if all of them were available for nomination purposes.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
I think therefore I am... I think.
