Okay, here's a random poll and I'll take suggestions for more options if you guys come up with them!

If any math nerds out there can come up with interesting number sequences that contain 5 integers between 0-11, post'em and I'll make it an option.

The fuck? :lol

I'll have to think about this a bit.

Exactly the reaction I wanted!  :tup

Also, I work at a University Catering and there's a local Math Competition going on now, so I've had numbers on my mind the whole afternoon. They also had a band playing here, but unfortunately, they were not playing Math Rock. :tdwn

Both Fibonacci and Prime have 3 out of the 4 best albums. Fibonacci has Octavarium. Prime wins.

"One Shall Stand, One Shall Fall"....would make a great DT song title, wouldn't it?

Evens, easily. I can take a loss at BC&SL if I'm able to live with I&W, FII, SDOIT, and 8VM.

Primes, easy. I&W, Awake, SFAM, and ADTOE are my 4 favorite albums.

Primes. 

This is quite possibly the easiest album poll I have ever taken on this forum.

BlobVanDam

Evens. It has Iaw, FII, and SDOIT, 3/4 of DT's best albums imo. It's a shame it doesn't have SFAM, or it would be a clean sweep. :tup

TheGreatPretender

Definitely odds Ver. 2. What it lacks in Images and Words, it more than makes up for with the others.

Ruba


Lowdz

After alot of thought I went with Prime as it had to have I&W, SFAM and ADTOE, my current top 3.

Mladen

Primes. Although Train of thought isn't one of my favorites, the remaining four definitely are.  :metal

TAC

Quote from: wkiml on June 08, 2012, 09:06:35 AMwould have thought the same thing but seeing the OP was TAC i immediately thought Maiden or DT related
Quote from: Stadler on February 08, 2025, 12:49:43 PMI wouldn't argue this.

Tough choice between Prime and Evens - in the end I couldn't leave Train Of Thought off though.

Well crap. Does that mean we'll have to wait until #13 for DT to have another good album?

Side note: WDADU should be on the prime numbers poll option.

Are you implying that SDOIT is not a good album? I think some DT fans would like to have a talk with you about that...

I thought about that, but I went with the Wiki definition of a Prime Number:
"A prime number (or a prime) is a natural number greater than 1 that has no positive divisors other than 1 and itself."

So, I had to start with 2.

I vote Prime along with the other 70%.

Nick

Prime. It has my 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and 5th favorite albums, and Awake, and so it'll be tough to top that.

bosk1

Prime.  It has my 2nd-5th, and TOT ain't bad either, especially as a comliment to the others in that bunch.  Odds v. 2 was my second choice.

I thought SFAM was your favorite.
