This probably belongs in the H!P Dreams thread, but I'm going to tie it in to this topic, so please be patient with me
I had a dream last night that MM was on a TV show and they were unveiling the results of their latest single. There was the main edition that had the A-side and B-side, but then the girls were split into teams of 2 or 3 who had their own b-side on their own edition (like Help Me!! or Wakuteka). The catch was, which ever team's edition sold the most would get to be leads on the next single. This meant the teams had to go out and promote themselves to try getting fans to buy their edition (and teams would switch around each single). What excited me was that there was a "Million Sellers" category on the board they were revealing stuff on... even in the dream I was thinking "MM has something that sold a million copies? No way!"
I woke up and thought - well, wouldn't that be interesting for this announcement? Tsunku would have to write songs for each team every release, as well as craft songs that flatter whoever is meant to lead. The girls would have to actively promote their team (and it would instill even more healthy competition between the girls). Maybe fans could even vote for what the teams will be. The only thing is - if you're a fan of one of the Forgotten Four - you might feel like it's useless since the popular members would be more likely to have their copies sell, meaning your girl would likely not get to lead unless she had a popularity spike. So I guess - like senbatsu, but not?
