That's such a legit winning list. I'm so proud of the UM right now.

You might want to recheck some of them, I count 6 votes for The Chasm (3 on page 1 and 3 on page 2).

Oh you know, those are all off by 1 vote. But +1 vote to all doesn't change the order.

The reason is I used the first vote to put their name in the excel spreadsheet. Then every vote after I added +1 to the number next to their name.

an extra chasm vote doesn't matter but ya that's a bit dubious. just ctrl+f that shit if you aren't already

edit: k nm

Ah, I see how you've done it now. Sorry, just wanted to make sure all the votes were counted correct, even though an extra vote here or there probably wouldn't have made a difference.

What will happen in the next round? Is it just the top 6 you listed we won't be able to vote for, or all the bands you listed?

Also, if this Hall of Fame is going to be stickied as a general guide for people new to metal who stumble upon UM, then maybe we could also vote for the best album(s) for each band that makes it into the HoF? I like lists and polls haha.

Yeah all of the votes were counted correct. They were just all -1 across the board in the post I made above, which doesn't change the ordering. I appreciate you double checking actually.

Yeah just the top 6 in the Hall of Fame already will be left out of the voting. They're already in.

Ideally I would like to get it stickied at the top when we get a decent sized Hall of Fame built up. But for now I don't think it deserves to be stickied yet. I do think we've got a good starting group of 6 though.
