Stip and Chud have very evenly matched teams, I think. The only thing I can think to do is an album by album comparison, and see which team has the most "wins" by album.
I haven't even thought about the second match-up yet.

It seems that people have either voted for me and phil or you and chud, but there's no obvious (to me anyway) feel to any of the teams to create that pattern.Kaius wrote:chud

I like to rank the songs and add them up, but I may do your way as well because I've got nothing else to do until I leave work.durdencommatyler wrote:Stip and Chud have very evenly matched teams, I think.

Just to clarify, I needed something to break the tie between your lists, because I had it dead even.
