As expected, Viva Davidoff was eliminated in a landslide. Also as expected, participation dwindled due both to the altered format of this particular Quarterfinal and the fact that it occurred going into the weekend.
We now reach the last Preliminary Quarterfinal round, that being the one for 2000-Present. This was a much less prolific period for the band in terms of non-album material - 27 tracks in 16 years, whereas they produced nearly the same number of non-album tracks in just five years from 1984-1989 and in four years from 1979-1983 - and as a whole the era isn't nearly as beloved as the earlier ones, particularly 1984-1989. But there are still unquestionably some real gems here, so this should be an interesting round, and should garner more participation than the previous one, which was really just the formality of eliminating Viva Davidoff.
Since we're starting this one on a Saturday, and since we just saved a day by making the 1990-1999 Preliminary Quarterfinal a 24-hour poll, I'm going to let this round run 72 hours so that people who aren't around on the weekend can still participate on Monday/Tuesday.
Instructions: We are returning to the normal format now. In this poll, 27 non-album tracks from 2000-Present will be available to vote for, with voting for multiple items enabled. You will vote for your TOP 15 FAVORITE tracks..
It is essential to the integrity of the competition that you vote for EXACTLY 15 tracks, not any more or any less. There is no way to lock you into a certain number of votes, so it is up to you to monitor yourselves.
Because 15 tracks is a lot to decide on, and because this poll is opening on a Saturday, this poll will be open for 72 hours to give everyone - including those who might not be around on the weekend - a chance to vote.
Here is a list of tracks in this poll, all linked to YT for your reference.
