Please vote for your FIVE MOST FAVOURITE ALBUMS.
Welcome to Album Survivor! Earlier in the week I promised to start this, so here we go. In 2009, when we finished the normal version of Survivor, we ran a different format - and interestingly it turned up some different results. Now that digitize has finished running a very successful version of the normal version of Survivor, I thought I'd repeat Survivor v2 and see how different the results are this time.
This round will last for 48 hours and will be followed by v2 of Best Song Survivor. This round determines the seeding for that tournament.
Best Song Survivor v2 will be a much quicker tournament than the previous one, with a single round for each album where you vote for your favourite songs in a multiple choice poll. It's much like the miscellaneous rounds in the normal version of Survivor. In this version, all non-album tracks from a given era will be integrated with their respective albums. The top five albums in Album Survivor will get seven finalists, the middle four will get six; the bottom four will get five. If you are having trouble deciding which album will be fifth and which will miss out on receiving your vote, you may wish to choose on the basis of how good an album's b-sides are, since they will feature in that album's poll this time around.
Each decade will have its own semi-final, and the eighties will have quarter finals to qualify for its semi. Progression from quarter and semi-finals will be determined by the cumulative seeding of an era's albums. The grand final will feature thirty options, the maximum possible with polls on this forum, to give a ranking of Interference's top thirty U2 songs.
There will be NO VOTE CHANGING in this tournament.
Have fun!
