How do you like Battles to be run?

[OldFogey]

I've run a couple of battles now where I've had ten choices -- songs or whatever -- up at a time. Most of the other battles do it the classic way -- pair off competitors and the winner advances to the next round. I didn't do that because I was concerned how long it would take. But I'm starting to wonder -- I mean, who's in a hurry? And having to listen to ten different songs can be quite a lot.

So, I'm wondering which you like better -- the classic playoff style with one and against one and the winner advances, or ten at a time (or five or whatever) with the top vote getter advancing?

more choices is more goods.

I support your method OldFogey like my grunge singers battle the more choices the better

I vote 5 at a time. I agree with rob gordon though, it should be 5 - no more, no less.
