Classic Rock Band Battle Game

The Classic Rock Band Battle

I saw this on a forum I frequent and thought it was a pretty cool game, and I thought you guys might like it.

What happens is: I make a list of 8 bands, and each of those 8 bands start off with a total of 30 points. The person who responds copies the list and puts "SAVE" next to one band and "KILL" next to another; by "saving" a band, you give them 2 points, by "killing" a band, they lose two points. This keeps going as more and more people join the game; the only rule is no back-to-back posts from the same person.

If a band makes it to 60, they make it into the Hall of Fame, which I will compile and keep track of. The next person to respond after the band reaches 60 gets to insert a new band in its place.

If a band makes it to 0, they are put in a Hall of Shame, which I will also compile and keep track of. Just like with the Hall of Fame, the next person to respond gets to choose a new band.

I will automatically put The Beatles and Queen in the Hall of Fame; seeing as this is a Queen forum, it'd be pointless to include them as everyone loves Queen. The Beatles...well, they're the Beatles.

Here's the beginning list, and I'll start the game off:
