I was doing some checking in bracket D just now, and I came up with something weird: Marillion and Genesis have already been together in a poll, but Marillion has won 3 times and Genesis has 2 wins and one tie. Now how this can be?

BRACKETS for the First Round are now Closed.
ADMINS please lock those threads if you could, so people are not confused.

Hey! I have a suggestion for those of us with...ahem...crappier internet connections. I.e. dial-up.
Could the first line in the first post of each PROG OLYMPIC thread be the two fighting bands? That way I could ghost my mouse over the topic titles and see who's playing in that thread without having to open each one individually OR keep them all in my head (a harder task yet!)?

a suggestion... close votes for Rush vs Osage Tribe, they`re killing MANDRAKEROOT....haha |
sadly, I really need to listen to Osage Tribe out of respect for MANDY...
part of this was the hopes that people would broaden their horizons and not blindly vote, but if not at least i tried
|
Yes, i also need to listen to Osage Tribe, never heard it, so i didn`t vote and actually Moving Pictures is not one of my fav albums...

Yeah, but you're not alone in loving Ulver. One of my favorite bands.

You've just had a heavy session of electroshock therapy, and you're more relaxed than you've been in weeks.

They will be added by Tonight
Notice they also have 5 albums in their Brackets, and its only 1v1, therefore, someone is left out each night.

Oh, ok, that makes sense.

same here-although Peccatum's Lost In Reverie or Arcturus' The Sham Mirrors would have been interesting to see

Umm... I haven't seen TMV and Talk Talk in any of the polls. Am I blind? Please point me to those, if they've been included in the polls.
