Whenever I see the word "masterpiece" in the same sentence as PoS, I die a little bit inside.  :-\

Well, they have one, so get over it. :p

And yes, they only have one. Specifically, The Perfect Element.

I prefer PT on the whole, but I think TPE is better than anything they've done.

You can still count it, can't you? I mean, if the intention is there, then I think that's all that's necessary in the long run.

You have to draw the line somewhere, though (and this is coming from a huge fan of TPE). If he makes an exception this time, he has to make exceptions with all the rest of these polls.

Hm, I guess, but I don't think his request was too unreasonable.

I mean, if this were like a week later, then yeah, that would be silly.

Unless, of course, I misunderstand, and the poll is closed :P

a poll this close warrants a revote.

If I lived in Florida I could do that, or if I lived in Louisiana I could have added a third candidate and given it two votes so I could hold a run-off since no song would have gotten 50% of the vote.  If someone REALLY wants to convince me Lightbulb Sun is so great, you are more than welcome to buy me a copy to try to prove yourself right in my eyes.

Exactly.  Calls for votes after the fact, revotes or anything else, just comes off as sore loser talk. :biggrin:

PT won.  PoS lost.  Deal with it. :hat

I don't like Lightbulb Sun half as much as I like The Perfect Element, but it won fairly and I accept that :P I'm just glad TPE got as high as it did.
