Default Zeitgeist Elimination Challenge (Week 0 - Instant Gratification Version)

This poll is similar to Davin's, except you don't have to register, it allows all 15 album tracks as choices, you only have to vote once, and the whole thing will be finished on September 14th (instead of 11 weeks from now).

Vote here

For people concerned about multiple voting: there isn't much preventing the people that would do that (on this board) from doing that on my poll or Davin's poll. (Though my poll does allow only one vote per IP, and Netphoria allows one vote per account. I wonder if multiple IPs are harder to come by than multiple netphoria accounts...) Anyway, if you have a better option...

all you have to do is rank the choices - are you telling me you are too lazy to order a list of songs?

yes, I respect and like Davin (unlike some on this board) (though I have never met him)

he prolly just didn't want to deal with a non-netphoria site (or maybe didn't know about this one?)

hey no worries...do what you want. this is fine and dandy for the impatient folks, but you have to remember the results will be very different than the weekly elimination polls.

reason being you're asking people to rank everything all at once, which is completely different then making people rank based on a limited set of choices established by the majority on a weekly basis.

frankly i think this one is going to end up pretty homogenous across the board (other than maybe best & worst) because most people's votes are going to equalize and make things end up in the middle. plus you lose out on all the discussions along the way....

You just had a seven page discussion, and its only week one. Most of the discussion is just going to be the same bullshit again and again.

not really....at this point we've only talked about 3 songs really....and mostly the last 2.

besides, what are you complaining about...if the discussions drop off that should make you happy right?

i think i will probably agree more with the result that your poll eventually gives - at least i agreed with the tfe elimination poll

for instance, bring the light is winning my poll right now - and i don't really like it that much (but it does win all matchups vs. other songs, so others must like it)

if davin's method were one poll every day, or every two days max, i'd like it. but the current method is maddening

chris, was it difficult to set up that site? it's pretty cool

enter data
click submit
click confirmation url
post the poll url

dude! you can't argue with the length of the poll when votes keep coming in every day! this is the first day to not have at least 20 votes cast, so i'm cool with dropping it from 7 to 6. we can drop it further if the voting ceases earlier.

fair enough?

I like it when this board has nothing to talk about. Not that there is much to talk about now, the album is only 2 months old, and people are already tired of it. It seems like you guys are just trying to extend its lifespan.

patience is a virtue. good things come to those who wait.

revenge is a dish best served cold.
