NationofCool Posted September 1, 2004 Posted September 1, 2004 RESULTS FROM GROUP A: 1)Strange Days 22 Life Beyond The Minimum 1 <--- I'm surprized it scored a 1 at all. I guess this puts Strange Days in #1 spot for the time being. 2)Load Me Up 15 I Miss New Wave 8 3)The Rat Who Would Be King 17 Comfy Criminals 6 4)Fall of Man 17 Ex-Pats 6 5)Under The Influence 15 Alabama Motel Room 8 <-- I voted for UTI.. but I was kinda hoping AMR would win also. 6)Running For Home 19 Carmelina 4 <---- maaan RFH is killing the competition.. it's clearly starting where it left off. ouch! All righty, now that I found the excel file with the tournament from the Double Life.. I thought I'd add some spice to the stats by showcasing what the songs did in the "Double Life Message Board" tournament Group B 1) She's Got a New Disguise vs Giant <I>--- She's Got a New Disguise went 5-9, bowing out in the first round to Near Fantastica --- Giant went 53-29, making it to the vote off round, where it was voted out, making it the #5 rank song. </I> My Pick: Giant Prediction: Giant in a land slide. 2) Indestructible vs The Fine Art of Falling Apart <I>--- Indestructible had a record of 4-14, losing to Apparitions in the first round. --- The Fine Art of Falling Apart went 25-28, losing to Sort of a Protest Song in round 3 </I> My Pick: Indestructible Prediction: FAoFA did surprizingly decent last time (defeating 21st Century Living and Future is X-Rated) so I'm guessing this. 3) Generation X-Wing vs Radio Bomb <I>--- Generation X-Wing finished 4-7, losing to I, The Throw Away in round 1. --- Radio Bomb also finished 4-7, losing to Change of Season in round 1. </I> My Pick: Radio Bomb Prediction: Radio Bomb.. I just think more people like it better. 4) Can't Explain vs Everything is Automatic <I>--- Can't Explain is making it's debut in this tournament. --- Everything is Automatic went 5-9, losing to Failing The Rorschach Test in a shocker in round 1. </I> My Pick: Everything is Automatic Prediction: EIA in a massive landslide. 5) Blue Skies Over Badlands vs Suburbia <I>--- Blue Skies Over Badlands is making its debut in this tournament. --- Suburbia finished an amazing 80-56, and had the 5th highest win percentage, only to lose in the finals! </I> My Pick: Suburbia Prediction: Suburbia wins by somewhat a landslide. 6) I, The Throw Away vs Raygun <I>--- I, The Throw Away finished 10-19, losing to Omissions of the Omen in round 2. --- Raygun finished 4-7, losing to Weapon in the first round.</I> My Pick: I, The Throw Away Prediction: Raygun.. a lot of people here like the upbeat stuff.
