My 2 favourite songs of all time

[CharlesPL]

Metro and LtL

[pg1067]

ACOS and Metropolis (it KILLS me to vote against LTL)

[Lonk]

Damn it, I clicked submit without finishing my vote! Hard choice but I was going to pick LTL, just because it's my favorite DT song.

[romdrums]

Metropolis and ACOS

[Eldomm]

Metropolis & Learning to live

[MirrorMask]

Metropolis and A Change of Seasons, incredibly the choices were easy for me.

[RoeDent]

Metropolis in the first matchup was easy. And I went for Learning to Live in the second, but only because it would be nice to see a first-time champion here. But I wouldn't be upset if ACOS went through.

[Shalev Amir]

I am going to admit a sacrilege, ACOS is one of my least heard DT songs. I probably heard most epics at leaat twice as much...
The only other really liked song it happened to is Empire of the Clouds, but unlike ACOS it doesn't have many competitors for being the goat, and LTL has been my top often so both I&Ws.

[Evermind]

I don't like ACOS at all. I stopped saying it because most people here love it, but I can't get into it. I voted against it in all four previous matchups (voted for This is the Life, TSCO, Fatal Tragedy and Octavarium).

Metropolis and LtL

ACOS

[hefdaddy42]

Metro and LtL

[pg1067]

ACOS and LTL are neck-and-neck after 28 votes with about 28 hours to go!

[MirrorMask]

And since Metropolis' win is basically secure... if Learning to Live gets through will the final be different than the I&W match where the latter won by just ONE vote?

There are actual championships that would WISH to be tight as this one 

[SleeperAwake]

Metropolis
Learning to Live

The first is pretty close, the second is brutal. Two of my Top 3 DT songs.

[TheCountOfNYC]

Six Degrees of Inner Turbulence and A Change of Seasons.

What's been the previous policy on missed votes like this during the League? Cos if this vote is counted, we'd currently be tied at 17-17 in the second matchup.

I seem to remember in the past that things like this were counted. I mean it's just a misclick and it was mentioned early in the voting, it's not like someone came in after the vote was finished or near the end and tried to get the result changed.

The fact I want LTL to win has no bearing on my opinion 

[Adami]

It should be (currently) 17-17 then. And if it remains that way, then Samsara will break the tie, and I assume LTL will win.


And I will weep.

[pg1067]

Why would Samsara break the tie?

Why would Samsara break the tie?

Haha, because I couldn't read and meant Destiny of Chaos.

I guess we'll see what happens.  ACOS won the vote 17-16.  If DoC decides to count Vmadera00's vote, then we'll have a tie that DoC will have to break.  If DoC is inclined to vote for ACOS, then it doesn't matter, but if DoC wants LTL to win, then that creates incentive to count the vote.  We got some Bush v. Gore-level shit right here!

Your vote will count.

The match is tied at 17-17.

Guess I get to break the tie.

One of these songs is  just outside my DT top 10. The other while great is probably my least favorite of the "great" songs.

A Change of Seasons has my vote. It shall advance.

[Lonk]

I am ok with ACOS winning as it is also one of my favorite songs

Next round is going to be an easy choice for me

[MirrorMask]

Learning to Live that defeated Metropolis for one vote loses the chance to go to the finals for one vote.

Love this brutal shit  it's like what happens in real life tournaments, when a team narrowly defeats another one in the group stage, and then loses the final against it or loses the semi-final before meeting the previously defeated them again.
