So if you're gonna post something along these lines, don't.
I simply wanted to know why people like Smooth Rider, because to me it sucks. So I wanted to hear their argument for it, you know get a DISCUSSION going on a MESSAGE BOARD, stop being so uptight.

Well congratulations. I guess that means you are the be all and end all of DMB knowledge because you been so blessed as to witness more rounds of DMB survivor than anyone else on these boards.
You took that completely the wrong way. I wasn't trying to sound like "I'VE BEEN HERE LONGER, SO I'M RIGHT."

But I also wanna congratulate you on being a dick during your last post.
Well then what were you trying to say?

I just can't stand Stand Up. I skip it every time.

And maybe it's just me, but I think that more than one round of this game is redundant. Obviously the songs with the fewest votes are going to win, so it looks like it's going to be between American Baby and Hello Again. Can't you just do it that way and have a play-off between ties to determine the winner? Merely a suggestion.

No, because the people currently voting for the really bad ones haven't had their opinion on the other songs heard. They'll influence the voting significantly. We've been doing album Survivors for years.
