I was being sarcastic.

I think Opeth will win anyway, but at least then they'll have done it fair and square. It's still wrong, but at least then the wrong opinions belong to RC regulars.Dark One said:Whatever. GO BATHORY, WHOOO HOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Erik said:And yes, as far as I know everyone who voted Bathory over Opeth in the band poll had posted several times in the forum before.
Realistically though, most of these are indeed what I'd call "regulars". Maybe you have a better way of deciding who's going to be counted? How do you define a "regular"? Five posts a day? Less? More? I'm not going to draw a line like that, however I reckon it's very fair to say that if you have NEVER posted here before, you have nothing to do in a poll about which albums the Royal Carnage crowd likes best.Myself said:so I'm currently leaning towards disallowing votes by people who have never once posted in this forum before.

......or to people who have posted here before on rare occasions, thus apparently making them regulars.Erik said:I think Opeth will win anyway, but at least then they'll have done it fair and square. It's still wrong, but at least then the wrong opinions belong to RC regulars.

Erik said:You're very vehement in trying to fuck the results up, but I will do what I can to keep it as accurate as possible
Erik said:I'm not going to be swayed by not-so-clever word twisting.
True, but that's beside the point. The POINT is to accurately reflect the tastes of the Royal Carnage forum, and I'm sorry if the RC board has less of love for Opeth than the Opeth board and the truth isn't to your liking. You're welcome to paste a copy of this poll in the Opeth forum and call it the "OPETH FORUM APRIL MADNESS" if you like, but here, I'm going to count the votes of the Royal Carnage forum people.Bathory fanboys aren't nearly as gay as Opeth fanboys.
