Triple Threat Matches

This type of match is to be played only if you are using a 12, 24, or 36 person bracket. (Yes it is possible, though I have never deciphered how to write a loser's bracket for this)

First introduced in Texas in 2001, the Triple Threat match can be very exciting. Basically, instead of 2 players going head to head, now you have 3 people going head-to-head. There is only one winner, and two losers.

The first player (Personally, I don't care which player goes first) will go up, and pick a song. Any song, and pick a difficulty (can be restricted). Then that player plays it, and their perfect count (or dance points count) is recorded. Immediately after this, the other two players will go up and play the exact same song and difficulty. Repeat this process again until all 3 players have played 3 songs.

Failing a song when you pick it : If I am running a tourney with this type of match, and someone fails a song they pick, they should be punished in some way, from getting a score of 0 perfects to being eliminated from the match. A player should not be able to pick songs they cannot pass.
