Please vote for your FIVE MOST FAVOURITE ALBUMS.
Welcome to Album Survivor! We ran an edition of this prior to NLOTH's release, and now that it's been out for a few months, it's time to run the game again. Please base your votes exclusively on the studio albums.
This round will last for 24 hours and will be followed by a new Best Song Survivor. In the previous tournament, Where The Streets Have No Name won the last Showdown, defeating With Or Without You in a mercy-ruling. WOWY polled 52 votes to Streets' 29.
The new Best Song Survivor will be a quick tournament, with a single round for each album where you vote for your favourite songs in a multiple choice poll, much like the miscellaneous rounds in the previous edition of Survivor. In this edition, all non-album tracks from a given era will be integrated with their respective albums. The outcome of this Album Survivor will determine seeding; the top five albums will get seven finalists, the middle four will get six; the bottom four will get five. Progression from semi-finals will be determined by the cumulative seeding of an era's albums. Some rounds will be run consecutively so that the tournament is done before the tour begins.
As a comparison, here are the results from last time, back in January (besides NLOTH, Passengers was also absent).
