What a surprise. Octavarium, A Change of Seasons, Breaking All Illusions, and Metropolis are undefeated.

A quarter of the way through the regular season, and of the 12 songs promoted up to a higher division (for fairness, I include the Outsiders Club promotees here), As I Am (Div. 2) has the best record, 3-2; in fact, the only one with a winning record at this stage of the season.

This shit hurts my soul. These 3 songs are in my all-time DT top 10. Seeing them stomped out on a weekly basis by the likes of Another Day makes me  :(

Ministry of Lost Souls belongs in divsion 1, but Nightmare to Remember and Lost Not Forgotten belongs in 3. Then again, so does Another Day.

Remembering back in the Systematic Chaos documentary days when JP commented about TMoLS.  "People really don't know what's going on there."

9 years later and they still don't.  :lol


Meanwhile, IT is in Div 1 because it's 19 mins long and supposedly an epic.  I think it should be in div 4 by itself.   :rollin

I do think TMOLS deserves to be in Division 1. TMOLS is very near my Top 10 DT Songs, love it. ANTR is Division 2 material for me. Lost not Forgotten can go straight to the Outsiders Division though.

And Another Day is one of my favourite DT songs.

Meanwhile, IT is in Div 1 because it's 19 mins long and supposedly an epic.  I think it should be in div 4 by itself.   :rollin

I agree here.
This first band is Soen very cool swingy jazz fusion kinda stuff.

I see that Through Her Eyes finally scored its first win (just), at the 6th time of asking. That's been a big surprise to me this year, how poor a start that song has had. It was in Division 2 last year, so I would've thought it would be towards the top of the Div. 3 rankings. Could we see a song suffer consecutive demotions?

Well, maybe you don't know what's going on in IT, which has one of the most well thought-out song structures in the DT catalogue. If you think people are voting for it just because it is 19 minutes long, then you are way off base.

No. The guitar solo and the C major chord is the ending of IT. Then you have a 30-second gap of silence, then the Easter Egg starts. Most bands do this on at least one album. Going by your principle, then every hidden track, however long the silence (and I've known those gaps to be as much as 30 minutes long) is a part of the track.

I'm not saying I'm right about this, it's just how I see it. I just care about those pieces little enough that I don't bother differentiating them since they're on the same track.

Repentance for me it's a top division 2 or bottom division 1 song, I don't understand how it can be the last song of division 3..
A Nightmare To Remember is in my all time top 10 too.

If you look at the song structurally, though, the structure of the song, which is circular, excludes the piano outro.

Although why am I taking you seriously whenn you are using the green font.  :lol

A question for DoC, out of curiosity: How far in advance do you generate each week's matchups? Or did you do the entire season's matchups prior to it starting? (If the latter's the case, obviously you can see if there are any juicy matches coming up...)

Hi there.  I generate the schedule all at once. And yes... I get excited when a juicy match is coming up.
