Battle of the bands - Round 2, match 6

[xenophobe]

DT. no more needs to be said.

 

[Ormir]

DT owns ye all!

 

[nafnikufesin]

Well, this looks like the closest match yet

 

[manuelgv]

well not going with the flow but I have more DT cds than Einherjer's an I have seen DT live
and even tho I love Einherjer's lyrics I love DT as a whole

 

[Voice of God]

DT, eventhough Einherjer has done some good songs, Dark Tranquillity has done 6 albums of good songs, so there's no real contest.

 

[The Grand Wazoo]

Woow I missed this poll at first!

Of course, of course
DARK TRANQUILLITY!!



DT

 

[Sonnenritter]

ahaha, for every one vote that Einherjer has, DT has 10. Einherjer didn't even put up a challenge!

 

[Dark_Jester]

Dark Tranquillity, so spoke the gods...

 

[The Grand Wazoo]

Ah. I knew you'd be around.

 

[Steve]

43-4, Dark Tranquillity
And the poll isn't even over yet...

 

[InuroBractea]

Dark Tranquillity
This is the most one sided match yet

jesus, 50 votes?
where are all these people coming from? the dt board??
if so, they're very welcome to vote for dt, as long as it's not against opeth

jokes aside, i'm afraid this (democratically, though) will false the results. even if not in this particular case, lol.

 

[no country for old wainds]

Heh, I voted for DT, and I don't think I've ever posted on that board.

Opeth forever

no. i build dark tranquillity fans in my basement out of spare parts of marduk fans every night.

rahvin.

 

[MadeInNewJersey]

While I too voted for DT, I'm curious how many people who did have even heard enough Einherjer to form a solid opinion? There's no way this should have been as lopsided as it is.

 

[Steve]

I've heard quite a few songs by Einherjer but Dark Tranquillity kicks their asses easily.

 

[Finntroll]

DT, one of the best...

well, in all honesty i don't think it's a great idea to call all the friends to vote for your favourite band. i know everyone on um has the right to vote, but you can understand very well that here in the chat section we have what we can consider a representative sample - not being any particular band's board - and that's why we can have a contest like this one nafnikufesin is doing without having an obvious winner.
it's clear that having here half of the voters from a single board voting only when their favourite band is involved alters the results, and i don't think it's something nice to do if you consider that here there are people who use to vote for every match of every round expecting to have a trustworthy result.
obviously i'm not saying dt fans cannot vote (every time we vote we do it because we're fans of this or that band); what i'm saying is that i don't consider fair to tell other people to come here and vote. we're not doing some lobbying. it would be easy for everyone to ask all the people on a certain forum to come here and vote for their band, but that's not what we've been doing, i don't think this is the "vote for the band with the biggest/ best/ full of jerks able to click on the mouse fans".

i'm sorry if i seemed a bit rude, but i really didn't like that. enjoy the competition.
