Sorry folks, it looks like this poll won't close today.  I still have to wait until one band gets ahead by three votes.


Yes was ahead by three this morning. Maybe if you'd be more punctual with your end dates... Tongue
meh, probably was at school.


School? This is more important than school! Get your priorities straight, man!
Seriously this poll is bigger than you and your life.  For fairness you need to be watching this poll 24/7 until one of the bands goes up by 3

Again, the people of the forum that had to vote, has voted already, if this continues will only cause that some people will vote twice on other computers or will use friends.

A draw must be declared by this point, now that the two bands are with 134 each.
 
There are not 268 active members.
 
Let the band with lowest score be removed by Yes or Genesis.

Let me be honest Triceratopsoil, people has said worst and more beligerant things and you kept your mouth closed.
 
I'm this site for 6 years and seen that we always gave an honest opinion and want ti keep it like this, so let me tell you that I don't care what you say and won't change my opinion to make you happy.
 
Thanks.
 
Iván

LOL It would be hilarious if the tie continued for weeks.

LOL

I don't care about changing your opinion, I just think you ought to not cry about something as meaningless as an internet poll

Both bands are tied, so I can't be crying, but I don't like to see people cheating in a poll calling members who will never come again and MAYBE using two or more computers, being that no poll ever has gathered this number of members (If I'm not wrong).
 
I care for this site too much to see this.
 
But this is something you will only understand after working months and years to make this site the N° 1 in the net.
 
Again thank you for your opinion, but I won't shut up because you don't like what you say.

So let it be a draw. Let both bands go through to the next round and see what that result is.

Let the comedy continue. It's been fun, let it be even more fun.

Not 268 active members? Who are the rest?

Laughable at best.

Equally entertaining of an assertion.

People who join and never come again, people who has left, lurkers who join to write a review, even if there are more active members (What I don't believe because people come and go), many won't give a damn for Yes and Genesis or even Prog.

You think fewer than 1% of site members are active?

I'm glad you laugh Triceratopsoli, but many of us in this forum do care.
 
Surely you don't know, but there are Administrators who work hours a week deleting bogus reviews and banning  people who tries to manipulate the lists.
 
So yes, many of us care.

No, I see fine, I don't even wear glasses.  Are you just trying to hide the fact that there is no connection to the present situation?

If - and that's a big IF with a capital I - indeed people are casting multiple votes through fake accounts or joining the forum simply to vote on the poll and never to return, what is the point of the poll at all?  Isn't the poll supposed to reflect the views of members who participate in the forum?

isn't the poll suppose to IT'S A BLOODY INTERNET POLL ABOUT SOMETHING THAT HAS BEEN DONE SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE AS A SMALL PART OF A LARGER THING THAT HAS NO REAL MEANING OR PURPOSE WHATSOEVER, NOT A FEDERAL ELECTION OR SOMETHING.

If it's just a BLOODY INTERNET POLL, why do you see fit to reply to Ivan or anybody else's views?  And because it's on the net, does it necessarily have to be done in an absolutely ridiculous manner and nobody is supposed to raise objections?  What's with this whole "It's just the internet" thing? Don't people like you ever realize that you cannot have even some acceptable level of discussion if there is absolutely no sense of what is and what is not on?  Is it necessary that any internet forum should meet the exacting standards of youtube comments?
