The IQ Cup - Groups A & B - Round 1
« on: January 21, 2020, 01:35:05 AM »
Welcome to the first groups of matches for The IQ Cup! If you're not familiar with tournaments like DT The League, the idea is to vote for the song you want to win out of each pair (separated by "Next Match Below" tags). Songs will receive 3 points for a win, 1 point for a tie and 0 points for a loss.

Your matchups to kick off Groups A & B

GROUP A
It All Stops Here vs Sacred Sound
The Wrong Side of Weird vs You Never Will
The Outer Limits vs Without Walls
Leap of Faith vs Provider
Sold On You vs The Darkest Hour
Unsolid Ground vs Capricorn

GROUP B
One Fatal Mistake vs The Last Human Gateway
Born Brilliant vs Wintertell
The Narrow Margin vs Fall and Rise
Red Dust Shadow vs Falling Apart at the Seams
Frequency vs The Great Spirit Way
Rise vs Overture


Voting is open for 24 hours. Please check your ballot carefully before submitting your votes.

One Fatal Mistake vs Great Spirit Way is just unfair.... Fatal Mistake gets the vote though. Lyrically it's Nichols best work.

Sure. I don't think I can physically change the poll, but I'll factor that into the result.
