Rest of U2 Survivor: Zooropa - Round 3

[the tourist]

Yay! Tie!

Is there anyone actively playing this game who needs 2 full days to vote? I'm wondering if knocking it back to a 24-hour voting round would help move things along.

There might be a few days here and there where I wouldn't be able to start a new poll right away, but for the most part I could do a new one daily.

 

[KhanadaRhodes]

24 hour rounds

I'd support this, if anything just because missing a few days here and there now is more desireable than missing the whole end of the competition, which I will at this point.

 

[phillyfan26]

I think unless it's really close, 24 hours is most desirable.

 

[Rob33]

but keep in mind we wouldn't get nearly the participation we're getting now with 24 hour polls

 

[corianderstem]

Are there a lot of people who aren't voting until the second day? Or are people just waiting to see how things play out before voting closer to the end of the round?

I think that for Passengers and the non-album rounds, 24 hour rounds would be preferable. I don't see extended voting being useful in that case. For Pop, ATYCLB, HTDAAB, and the finals though? I think 2 days is probably still best. It has noticeably changed some results - possibly including this very round.

That makes a lot of sense.

 

[corianderstem]

I second that. Thanks.

As the head of my department would say, "Check and check."

(of course, that's only remotely amusing to me. )

I'd like to see another vote for The Wanderer in the next two hours. If I have to see Crashed Car go, I'd like to take Wanderer down with it.

Plus, it saves us a round!

 

[bonocomet]

24 hour rounds sounds good I always vote the 1st day, and then it kinda drags... except in a few instances that I totally forget about the whole thing and miss a round, but that's only happened once or twice I think.

 

[coolian2]

I think 24 hours would be preferable.

The only rounds i've missed a majority of was October, and that was because i was in Wellington..........two months ago

 

[Lila64]

I think, for the time's sake, with the closeness of THIS vote, both songs should be out. Just my opinion

 

[corianderstem]

Can you go get Maddy or your husband to come and vote for Wanderer?

 

[Lila64]

I, I mean they, already voted

 

[FitzChivalry]

NO! Wanderer is the 3rd BEST song off Zooropa!

It needs to stay a little while longer!!!!

 

[Axver]

Even though I want The Wanderer to stay, I'd actually prefer a draw just because the next round will be so predictable.

But I'm not bringing notAxver out of the woodwork, sorry.

 

[corianderstem]

Somebody come and vote for Wanderer in the next 6 minutes!!!!!!!

 

[Axver]

Oh well, look at it this way, cori: next round, you'll at least get to invoke the mercy rule for the first time in a while!

 

[corianderstem]

Yeah, I guess.

 

[coolian2]

I'm too lazy to create an alternate account


Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeh, just invoke the mercy rule after 25 minutes.

 

[Varitek]

I predict the mercy rule will be implemented within 2 hours.

I actually HAVE an alternate account that I created last spring when I thought about switching to something u2-related. And I logged in with it and tried to vote but it wouldn't let me. FWIW?

 

[Axver]

Well, who knows where the 42 Daddy's Gonna Pay voters are going to go next. I'll be voting for Dirty Day. I predict the mercy rule after a day.

 

[corianderstem]

But if I do that, then it throws off all my timing ... if I end a poll in a few hours, then it's later at night for me. And the way I've been going lately, I'd sleep through all the times to post a new poll!

Oh, decisions, decisions.

It's a conspiracy

 

[corianderstem]

Aw, damnit. Foiled again.

Not allowed to vote in polls with multiple ids.
