Title: WFMU on Soundtap - what happened?
Post by: folksnake on March 25, 2012, 12:26:32 PM

Hi All-
I was curious if anyone had heard what happened with that contest/tournament thing on Soundtap. I had done my bit by listening through their site, enjoyed watching the ticker catch and overcome the Oberlin station, but then went back a day or so later and saw that FMU "withdrew". Has that been explained? I missed it.

According to the WFMU twitter feed they withdrew because WFMU traffic was crashing the Soundtap site.

Apparently they withdrew as well, leaving UC Davis with no competition in that bracket.

While researching the Larry Sanders show, I found out Eric Bogosian went to Oberlin College. I wonder what his acne state was back then...
