The Awareness even though I remember having pinned it for winner (am I dumb or am I fair to my tastes in voting against my own predictions?  :lol )
I use my sig to pimp some bands from Italy! Check out Elvenking (Power / Folk metal), Folkstone (Rock / Medieval metal), Arcana Opera (Gothic/Noir/Heavy metal) and the beautiful voice of Elisa!

Sail Away to Avalon
people on this board are actual music fans who developed taste in music and not casual listeners who are following current fashion trends and listening to only current commercial hits.

Same here. But to be honest The Awareness is my clear #3, I like Avalon and Merlin more.

My least favorite thing is that getting the top 3 and top 2 right but not the 1st place right is less points than just getting 1st place right and the other two wrong  :sadpanda:

Looking forward to massively failing on the dream sequencer predictions  :tup

It's definitely a questionable balance decision and I spend a lot of time on it, but in the end I decided that getting the winner right (even if you only got the winner right) is very important, because that's kind of what it's all about, it's a survivor game after all.

Went with Avalon, but they're both about equal for me.

My rankings of this album have really changed a bit since I've made my predictions. :lol
