I think they're called thirds
Early, Middle comes very close

I voted early.  If they would've packed it in after Atom Heart Mother and Syd's solo albums they would have been one of my favourite cult bands 

Other: early + classic. Not on the poll, but I don't care.

Well I'm not going against the grain here.

All of them are awesome, but the classic era is my favourite.

I would like to vote twice, for 1 and 2.

The classic era is far too popular to be beaten by the other two. On the original poll, the classics were tied down by the mediocre-bad later stuff, so Early had a fair chance

first half + second half + third half, that's three halves!. Anyway, the third one is for me.
