Bugs

I hope my other choice gets back to me.
that was a backup for me if some other songs I need get taken.

There is one song I can't really make space for that will be VERY hard to pass up if it is still available. I kinda hope someone takes it

Oh, I'm sure someone will fix that for you, stip.

Crazy underrated song. One of my favorite studio tracks.

I've been really happy so far, I haven't had to take a song I don't absolutely love.

So what I've learned from this tournament is that based on individual preferences, there are a multitude of much loved songs within PJ's catalog... but when the group or collective preferences are taken into consideration, the "hits" or the "classics" or whatever you want to call them rise to the top, and gems like Green Disease fall to the bottom and become almost forgotten... is that a fair statement?

Great pick. It's my number 3 from RA (behind Cant Keep and Help Help).

Seems like it. That's why I think I played this game wrong.

certain songs have a strong consensus in their favor and so it's safe to take them early. Plus some songs FEEL more important and it's nice to have a few of them on your team. They make the songs around them matter more.

I think people go for the most popular/hits songs cause they assume they're gonna go first. Last exit isn't my favourite but I figured it was gonna go fast so I took it first.

Post by **stip** » Fri August 23, 2013 4:39 pm

well there's that, too. One of my top 5 PJ songs is still out there, and I've yet to draft it.

That song deserved to be taken early. I wanted it so badly. Insignificance, Last Exit, and Go were my top 3.

Yeah, the songs I was gonna take are gone, so I'm thinking things through. I'm thinking between 3 songs right now...

I do not undertand the love for Insignificance. The middle rounds? Sure. But the one that people lose their shit over? What? Why?

Its a top 5 PJ song for me. Studio version though. It's just so thick and dense and rocking. Amazing lyrics, awesome riffs. It's as close to a perfect song as anything I can think of.

That's a bottom of the top tier song for me, but I get why people like it so much. What it does it does extremely well, it just doesn't necessarily play to my tastes.

It's probably the best thing Pearl Jam has done in the last 14 years.
