Welcome to the newest take on this topic series! Last week, Ace of Spades dominated in a low vote turn-out.
Rules: - Obvious contest rules apply (no alts, one vote per person, no rallying, etc.). - Voting lasts 24 hours. A new topic will be put up every weekday and sometimes on weekends. - Please do not delete your post, but editing your vote is fine. A deleted post in the topic will invalidate your vote. - Feel free to nominate a band/artist! You may nominate a band once a topic, but only if you have voted. You may not nominate the same band more than once. The band with the most nominations will go next in line. - Discussion is encouraged, but please keep it civil and respect the tastes of other users. I know not everyone likes the same kinds of music but I will try to make accommodations. - Please vote for songs only found in Studio Albums, EPs, Singles, or other official recordings. I will not normally accept votes for any other songs. - Voting is done in the format of +3, +2, +1. I will explain further and give examples of how you can vote below:
You may choose to give points to up to 3 songs by any band or artist. The more songs you rank, the more points you can give!
For example, let's say that the the band to be ranked is Mouse Rat. If I were ranking my top 3, I would present them in this format:
+3 The Pit +2 5000 Candles in the Wind +1 Sex Hair
If another user only knew or wanted to rank 1 song from the band, he would vote in this manner:
+1 November
The users who have a better familiarity with the artist will have more influence than users who only know one song(how can you choose the best song if you only know 1?). That way, the best song (but not necessarily the most well known song) wins.
I'm hoping this works out well and we get balanced results. If it doesn't, I might consider handling the scoring another way.
26 Ace of Spades 12 The Game 8 Overkill 6 Line in the Sand 5 Killed by Death 4 King of Kings 3 Ironfist 2 We Are the Road Crew 2 Louie Louie 2 The Chase is Better Than the Catch
No other song got more than 1 point.
Disappointing votals, but I'm not really surprised given the band. Today should see much more interest.
Top 10 songs:
57 Bohemian Rhapsody 51 Don't Stop Me Now 26 Ace of Spades 25 Under Pressure 25 Gimme Shelter 23 Paint It, Black 20 Killer Queen 16 Sympathy for the Devil 14 Jumpin' Jack Flash 13 Princes of the Universe

Not changing this sig until the Bengals, Bills, Browns and Lions win the Super Bowl (10/10/10) The most American Canadian on Board 8 - #9 Bro on Board 8
The last one was Motorhead? Aren't they a one hit wonder - at least by today's standards?
Also, you might want to put an example in your OP of a band somebody's actually heard of. Or that's actually the name of your fictitious band. (It took me much longer than it should have to realize that it's some Parks and Recreation joke, and the band is actually Scarecrow Boat.) If you want to do a fictitious group, maybe Spinal Tap?
Why does it matter if the example is a real band or not? I'm showing how to vote, not who to vote for. I choose a fictitious band because I wanted an example that I know will never be voted on in this topic.
