The outcome of the final round of Best Album Survivor was pretty clear-cut:
The Joshua Tree: 65
Achtung Baby: 36
Therefore, Achtung Baby is the winner of Best Album Survivor, just like it won Worst Album Survivor. The final rankings make for an interesting comparison.

Make of that what you will.
I was going to start a new Survivor, a return to Best Song Survivor, which will be quite a lengthy tournament. However, since the forum has come back online only just as I am about to leave for the night, I shall put that on hold until tomorrow. I figured I should at least get this results thread up for you guys in the interim.
