Let me get this straight - two of you saw the FINAL results and decided to move your votes just in order to save a song that lost fair and square? Since when can you do that?

I'm outta here...

Only because the song you've been voting for wasn't kicked out? I've done vote-changes before in the past. If it's really a problem to everyone, then I'll delete this thread and go with the final results as shown from the previous round.

Just to BE FAIR for everyone involved, I did reset the poll and we are now moving forward with the results as SHOWN from Round 3. Sorry if the changes made anyone upset, but this is now how we're going ahead.

RIP "The Great Nothing" - at least you weren't out FIRST like the last time I did this Survivor.

You don't have to change anything just because of me, I didn't ask for it. I just expressed how shocked I am that you could change the rules of a survivor just like that.

I only decided not to participate anymore because I've never seen people moving their votes AFTER the round officially ended, I don't think it's that big of a problem as long as the voting was still going, or if we have a tie after the round ends. It's a fact that the voting was closed, you people weren't happy with the results and decided to change your vote in order not a lose a song you prefer. Even though the song, as I said, lost fair and square, three other voters prefer the remaining three songs, and as far as I'm concerned, The Great Nothing is easily the weakest in the bunch.

If you're still on the fence with what you want to do with your own survivor (again, I didn't ask for you to change anything - it's not like the survivor couldn't move on with one voter less), I think it would only be fair to ask the mods if it's OK to change your votes like that. I'm not making the rules, I'm just expressing my opinion. And sorry if I came across like bitter and angry, but I did feel disrespected.

I agree with Mladen.  If everyone can see the results and then say, "Oh, let me change my vote to rig the result," then what is the point?  Stupid crap like that is why some decide to run survivors where you can't see the voting until it is over, which is annoying, too.  As I have said before, it's good to not take these things too seriously, but what is the point of having them if people can wait till the voting is closed and then change their votes to change the result?

I don't mind the allowing of the changing of votes....but *not* after polling is closed.   To be honest, I have no idea if my change came before or after the deadline.  If I got it in before the deadline, I think it should be counted as such.   If I missed it, I think it shouldn't.

IMO, we should have had a "tie breaker" round b/c that would have forced the person who voted for ATEOTD to pick one of the other three.   But that's just an idea.

The Great Nothing is out???  Not only is that my favorite on this album, but is my all-time favorite Spock's Beard song.  Kind of surprising there's not more love for it.  I mean, Revelation beat it???!!!

Ok, rant is over.  Just gotta keep voting for what's left!  Looking forward to the Snow rounds.

You did come in an hour later. Otherwise maybe it wouldn't have been a problem, but those sort of things are up to M.

Anyway, if this is how we're moving on, I'll go with Revelation. And in my opinion, this is the perfect top three.
