THE CONCEPT:
*Forcing voting to be on smaller groups to prevent early upsets and/or voting results to change in consolations and finals, as well as an easy method to rank the entire album catalog.

RULES:
*Each album will begin with a preliminary round with three groups of 3-4 songs.
-This is still a survivor, so "vote for your least favorite" is still in effect. Songs with the most votes will be eliminated.
-Vote for exactly one song in each group.
-Preliminary rounds will last 2 days each.
-In the event of unbalanced groups (which will be the case for every album in this survivor) an additional 1-day poll will be held for the final necessary round.

*After an album's preliminary round ends, an album ranking round will commence.
-The lowest remaining song from each group will be voted upon.
-Again, the song with the most votes will be eliminated.
-Ranking rounds will last 1 day each.

*There will be no consolation. Finals begin immediately after the last album round concludes.
-The finals will contain the lowest remaining song from each album.
-Voting rules are identical to album ranking rules. 1 day each.

--------------------

--------------------
Same as usual for me.

Also, would anyone be opposed to just ditching the poll for at least the rest of the album and doing post-votes only? Would prevent the problem of a tiebreaker like last round having to happen again. I'd hope we get more people for Fortress at least, so I'd probably reinstate it then, but I'm not against having to count votes myself.
