Title: Iron Maiden Survivor 2016 - Piece of Mind - Round 6
Post by: 425 on March 12, 2016, 10:09:51 AM
Round 5 Results:

Where Eagles Dare - 7 votes - 29.2%
Revelations - 6 votes - 25.0%

Still Life - 8 votes - 33.3%
To Tame a Land - 2 votes - 8.3%


Eliminated:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5. Still Life
6. Flight of Icarus
7. Die With Your Boots On
8. Sun and Steel
9. Quest for Fire


Still Life is eliminated in a close vote.

____________

I don't know how to vote now. My two favorite songs, Where Eagles Dare and Revelations, appear to be the ones on the verge of elimination. The Trooper is the one I would prefer to eliminate next. I don't know if anyone else is willing to go for it, though. I'm willing to vote To Tame a Land if it means saving WED and Revelations. I might wait and see if it looks like anyone else is willing to go after The Trooper, and if not, I'll go for To Tame a Land. I won't cheat by looking at the actual vote count, though—I'll just go by what people say in their posts.

I don't think anyone would vote against The Trooper, save the occasional vote or two, but it's clear nobody wants to vote that song out just yet.

I'm fully willing to team up with you and vote out To Tame a Land however, but we should get enough people from the Eagles / Revelations camp to sacrifice To Tame a Land.

I won't cheat by looking at the actual vote count, though—I'll just go by what people say in their posts.

Well, that's how I voted so far. Joined against the most voted song to make sure the one I want to win stays on.   ;D

Crap, thought WED was out already so I voted To Tame A Land, oh well, they're very close in my rankings so I don't mind.

Guys, why do your tastes all suck.

To Tame a Land is easily the best song on the album, get it right.

To Tame A Land is the best Maiden song of all time !!! probably MP's favorite as well.

Oh that changes my mind then.. :neverusethis:

Never been a fan of the vocals on To Tame a Land, I may be predictable but The Trooper is by far my favorite song on the album, and it's not even close to being my favorite IM song :P

I don't get you guys, WED was the most voted in the last round, now it's the least voted (aside The Trooper)  :huh:

We only have 13 votes so far. 24 people voted last round. If at least 4 of those 11 show up and vote for WED, it'll be consistent.

I know, but Tame a Land is getting a lot of votes now, while it only got 2 last round so maybe some changed their mind this time around.

I have WED, Revelations and TTAL pretty close, so the reason i voted for Eagles was because i thought it would be the most voted by a mile in this round. Well, as long as The Trooper wins, i don't mind it. That's the only song i would put in my top 10 Maiden songs.

I'll go for Eagles (again  ;D)..

TTAL really doesn't do much for me, I'm afraid. But I am reading Dune at the minute, so maybe all will become clear..  :)

Perhaps, but it could also be that a majority of the Still Life voters went to To Tame a Land.

Your top 10 and my top 10 must be very different.

Revelations is probably a top 5 maiden track for me. 

Voted WED because a vote for The Trooper is a wasted vote.

Where Eagles Dare

To tame a land is a top 5 Maiden song.

Judging from the comments, it's a tight race... can we bribe people? I could offer my support for someone's favorite song in the inevitable 666 / Children of the Damned showdown in the Number of the Beast survivor to get To Tame a Land out of the way  :biggrin:

(I still have to vote btw, I still have to figure out if I would waste a vote on To Tame a Land or it's better to go after whichever song out of Eagles and Revelations I can sacrifice to let the other stay)

I've already voted in this one, but I can vote To Tame a Land next time instead of Eagles (or Revelations again) if you will vote for the title track in TNoTB Survivor - Round 7. ;)

I'm ok with it... as long as my favorite song survives, hehe! my goal is not to get To Tame a Land out, but to have my favorite song stay in. Would it be up to me, I'd send the entire album minus Quest for Fire and Sun and Steel to the finals.

(And while I'm sentimentally attached more to Piece of Mind, the Seventh Son survivor is gonna be an absolute nightmare. That one is gonna be even harder!!!)

I didn't want this to happen either, but I had to in order to save my two favorites. It could have been The Trooper.
