Not sure if i was missing any from my list but out of those i am surprised by just breathe, im still here, evacuation and dirty frank

Then im not sure if they were eligible but lightning bolt and future days not getting picked surprised me also, well least lightning bolt

when i see what hasn't been picked and some of the shit that has, i just hate this fucking place. honestly, everyone here makes fun of the official scientology board, and rightfully so, but the too cool schtick over here has worn really thin. if this is done and these are left, can i have a 17th team? i'll take the ten in bold, and if that lineup loses to half of these teams, you can suck a bag of dicks. fuck me, can you imagine if the band turned around and instead of playing last kiss to the people behind the stage, they played acoustic #1? i'm sure the reaction here would be, "i need this boot! legendary!" and did cold confession really go with a first pick? i mean, i like the song too, but are there really not 16 other songs in the 22 year history of the band that have rooted themselves deeper over time? anyway, carry on with your underground pearl jam picks, cready stompers. or put this in quotes and put me in my place. team daft twat! make it happen, stip. i like backspacer too.

I mean what if I like one group of songs more than the opponent, but maybe the opponent put their songs together to make a "better" playlist? I can disregard the playlist aspect and just vote for what I think is the better group of songs, right? I guess it's stupid to ask this question. Because I'm just gonna do what I want anyway. And I don't have to tell anyone why I'm voting the way I'm voting. Please disregard this post. I figured it out.

You can vote on whatever criteria you want.

This is how I plan to vote. As I probably won't be around, someone will have to do it for me. You win 10 points for picking anything from Vitalogy, Yield, No Code and Binaural. You lose 10 points for picking anything from s/t and Backspacer (make that -20 points if you picked The Fixer or Life Wasted). VS, RA and Ten get you nothing because come on. Solat gets you +10 points. If you picked one of the +10 points songs within the first 2 rounds you get an additional 2 points per each song. If you didn't pick Man of the Hour you lose 3 points. You get 2 points for each instrumental song you picked. If a song you picked can be described as Neil Young-ish you get 4 more points. If it's Springsteen-esque you lose 6 points. Finally, if you picked obscure shit I haven't even heard like Acoustic #1 or Sunbutt or Be Like Wind then you're a hipster and you have to give away 5 of your total points in exchange of a full bowl of dicks you can eat.

That seems like an awful lot of trouble.
