Today we'll be voting on the second half of the first round.
For discussion:
Which albums did you root for in the first half?
Which albums are you rooting for in the second half?
Which album do you think will win and why?
Which albums should've been included in the tournament?
Does this tournament have the potential to reshape /mu/ and /mu/core?
How often should these tournaments take place?
Fuck yeah, just on time.
FUCK KING CRIMSON

THIS is the real battle right here.
It's so obvious what's happening. Some Pink Moon phoneposter was buttmad that he was losing, so he rigged the Death Grips vs. Beatles battle (two irrelevant bands that nobody gives a fuck about in 2017) to distract us all from what really matters.

>>71709043

yeah some shitty prog rock is better than a genre-defining masterpiece

>>71709043
>>71709085
>>71709111
As a shameless prog rockfag whose favorite album of all time is Genesis - Foxtrot, if you vote for Close to the Edge, you are a fucking pleb.
CttE is absolute dogshit. It is a disgrace to the genre of prog. Its lyrics are horrendous, the vocals are cancerously rancid... Jesus Christ.
holy shit, Flood pulled it back.
>>71709103
it fucking better
>>71709132
same
>>71708993
>mingus is tied with NIRVANA
if you voted for bleach, rethink your whole life, and after that end it.
Never had any value or potential
>>71708797
Come on fellas vote for Maggot Brain! Let the funk prevail!
>>71709131
>actually being surprised
>>71708993
how long do the polls stay open for?
>>71709142
it's arguably the greatest prog rock album of all time. you have shit taste through and through
>>71709140
same thing happened with TMV vs Beefheart. it's probably just cause people are making such a big deal of it
how in god's name is chamber pop 4 bisexuals winning against lonesome crowded west ffs
>>71709111
>CTTE
>Genre-defining
do you even know what a genre is?
>>71709181
i'm still salty about this
>>71709089
I didn't decide when the first half closed. Poll-guy did, but he mysteriously disappeared. Plus, making Chart-guy make another image if I reopened the first half would just be cruel.
>>71709176
Speaking of Chart-guy, where is he? I'm deciding when I close the second half based on when he can get the image for the entire first round done.
>>71709186
Modest Mouse blows dude
So many superior albums on that chart, Modest Mouse are like ants. Tiny. I step on Modest Mouse.
>>71709208
Are we getting the last 4 polls soon?
I'm going to vote then go to bed
>>71709186
>STGSTV chamber pop
>STGSTV having 4 people involved
Holy shit, maybe if you actually listened to the album before voting against it you'd understand, you prick.
>>71709177
>it's arguably the greatest prog rock album of all time.
Holy fucking shit, you are delusional and your taste is horseshit. Tell me how exactly an album with 3 songs whose only actually-good song is its very last is the GREATEST of its genre. Jesus Christ, you are shit. Listen to some actual prog like King Crimson and realize that shit lyrics, horrid vocals, and masturbatory noodling aren't fucking requirements for a prog record.
Come on OP post 98.12.28 vs Vialator
I've been waiting to vote for 98.12.28 for hours
>>71709218
HAHAHA
>>71709236
Yep. Give me a few minutes.
Sorry for being late to making the polls, fambruhs
But it seems like you guys are doing well with it on your own so I guess we gud
>>71709142
The vocals are brilliant, what are you on about? You try singing countertenor sometime.
>>71709208
>Plus, making Chart-guy make another image if I reopened the first half would just be cruel.
i'll make another just let the first half voting continue! cmon anyone else agree?
>>71709142
REEEEEEEEEEEE
I swear if fucking Feels gets more votes than Trout Mask Replica this board is shit and doomed forever.
The only ANCO album that deserves to be in the conversation is Spirit They're Gone. And maybe MPP
>>71709257
>You try singing countertenor sometime.
How about no, and instead I try NOT wailing shitty lyrics over some actually quality instrumentation, ruining an entire album?
>there are people ITT who unironically dislike CTTE
>>71709273
the fact that TMR got any votes at all is a disgrace
>>71709257
who cares, they sound fucking retarded
>>71709017
these lyrics are a great metaphor for death it's just going right over your head
>>71709242
i said arguably, for one, and i've heard king crimson too and i would be making the same argument for many of their records.
if you think that the last song is the only good one you've proven yourself a pleb.
>Spiderland beat Soundtracks for the Blind
WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY STFB IS SO MUCH BETTER
>>71709166
Maggot Brain really should win. Funk needs some more representation here.
>>71709208
also, i dont even see the image you're talking about. it's not in the OP
>>71709288
and there are people in this board who downloaded the same picture of lions "laughing" at a computer screen twice
>>71709292
Fast a bulbous, got me?
>>71709301
'no'
>>71708838
fucking disgusting
>22 a million
seriously that's honestly sad that you think this album is anywhere more than complete shit
>>71709261
They've been open for more than enough time before closing.
>>71709273
feels beating out Piper at the gates proves how bad this board has gotten.

>>71709681
damn I regret my vote now f a m
>>71709701
Honestly, both should be disqualified due to the blatant rigging on both sides.
Do you want to see ITAOTS lose?
If so, vote for XTC in the next round.
>>71709701
kek this just shows that any poll made here will be absolutely bullshit, and I like death grips, but cmon now
there should be a similar tournament for worst album of all time
When are we starting round 2 for the left half?
>>71709736
I just want to see XTC win desu
I really like ItAOtS, but I don't want it to win this. It's just too predictable.

this please
>>71709744
NOW THERE'S A PRETTY MEME
is there any other group of 8 albums that are more hype?

I would root for TMR to win both

Sure, but please start a new thread for it or it'll get confusing
Are we using the same set-up as for this?
>>71709582
You misspelled edgy
>>71709797
please no this is already too much
>>71709797
>>71709825
Please use a different thread for the worst album tournament.
>>71709797
MAKE THEM NEED MORE THAN 4 (YOU)S
4 IS NOT ENOUGH, THAT'S HOW WE GOT SO MANY MEMES
>>71709825
I'll make a thread and start it, same rules, four votes gets in BUT there will be more deliberation this time. Same bracket style, 128 albums.
>>71709797
>>71709859
yeah make it 8 or 10 (you)s
>>71709868
128 seems like a lot though
64 would be more reasonable
>>71709852
when is round2 for this thread coming?
>>71709880
OK does 64 sound good to everyone? Perhaps 96?
>>71709880
Yeah, worst won't need as much as best and might die if you use too many. 64 seems a more realistic amount.
>>71709902
Not sure. I'll start a strawpoll and see what /mu/ thinks.
>>71709913
64
let's not meme too hard
damn is First Utterance really going to be bumped out first round?
>>71709913
64. And 8 (You)s for successful nomination.
>>71709942
i'm not that mad, Flood is a great album. But it would have been nice for it to have made it farther

No. This is the first round. The first round got split up into two halves. Voting for the first round took place last night.
>>71709672
Get over it, dad.
I'm gonna be honest, I've been trying to rig polls against the meme albums like Yeezus and TMS, but it's no use. The nu-males are too powerful. Even rigging can't beat them.
This tournament will just be a reiteration of the /mu/core charts.

I'm gonna keep this poll running until midnight (EST). Then I'll decide when the polls are closed.
GET BACK IN THE LEAD, YEEZUS
>Grimes already has like 6 votes in the Worst Album tourney
LOL
>>71709208
sorry man I left for a bit. I can't make the round 2 chart until we've decided on a time to cut off the voting for this round so I can get the official results in.
>>71710216
Alright. What time zone you in? How does 12 PM EST tomorrow sound?
That's a cool ass internet event, I just don't care that my favorite album (Violator) is gonna lose on the first round.
Just wanna see this circus on fire.
>>71710091
cmon my man dont do that. i wanna see the memes lose just as much as you but if it happens, it happens
>>71709976
>>71710122
>>71710243
Thanks for the consideration of everyone that voted in this poll. I can try for 12 but I've got school from 11:30-2:30
>>71710291
also eastern time
>>71710291
Ah. Okay. I'll cut off the polls at 12, and I'll save the results so you can make the chart when you're back from class. How's that sound?
>>71708797
>Future Days - 83%
>Plantastia - 17%
In order to filter out memes, i propose as a golden standard that albums may not be eligible if their RYM rating is 3.00 or over. I think this is reasonable enough.
>>71708760
Really wish OTC would win but you put it against Astral Weeks, damn
>>71710365
wrong thread, this was meant for >>71710032
>>71710325
That's an option, but then we'll have to wait until I'm done before I can make the chart and start round 2. If we cut it off at 11 EST, I could likely get it done in that half hour before I go
>>71710417
Hmm. How's 10:30 EST sound? I'll give you some extra time.
>>71710091
>admitted rigging
THIS MUST BE DEALT WITH
New poll or should we just remove five five votes from Yankee?
>>71710463
Thanks man that works. Besides, I doubt that half hour difference between 10:30-11:00 will have many votes
>>71710535
Yeah. Now I gotta make sure I go to bed early enough so that I'm up when the voting takes place again.
>>71710514
Well, to be fair, there was some obvious rigging from both sides, so this anon admitting to rigging it isn't a big deal. I'll let it slide.
>>71708994
Tay Tay made it but Joanna did not .-.
>>71709003
god damn i hate the beatles
>>71710627
>Tay Tay made it
What are you talking about?
>>71710691
I'm guessing he thought the Red that make it was Taylor Swift??
VOTING OFFICIALLY ENDS AT 10:30 AM EST TIME TOMORROW MORNING
For discussion:
Which albums do you think will pull through into the second round?
Which two albums from the two big feuds will win (YKH vs Yeezus, TMS vs Sgt. Pepper's)?
Which albums did you expect to be winning, and did they meet your expectations so far?
>>71710757
Voting for the second half of the first round, that is. Probably should've cleared that up a bit.
>>71709797

>Fucking DEVO is beating The Bends
Holy Shit What the fuck happened to this board.
worst album of all time guy here, i deeply regret my invention
my deepest apologies
>>71710920
this
>>71710926
No I'm actually right here and things are going fine, I'm just doing it a bit differently than this one.
Match-up announcements coming soon!
>>71710920
We learned that Radiohead's not perfect and that their straight rock albums are good at best.
>>71710757
>Which albums do you think will pull through into the second round?
Remain in Light, ItAOtS, all the King Crimson ones, and Trout Meme Replica for sure.
>Which two albums from the two big feuds will win (YKH vs Yeezus, TMS vs Sgt. Pepper's)?
YKH, Sgt. Pepper's. I have faith.
>Which albums did you expect to be winning, and did they meet your expectations so far?
I was expecting TMS to beat Sgt. Pepper's, pleasantly surprised it hasn't. Also, I was expecting /mu/'s plebbery to make The Bends win over DEVO, but /mu/ pulled through on that one, too!
Hey guys, I didn't knew a shit since last night because of work and stuff, what has happened so far?
>>71710993
but anon, TMS IS beating Sgt Pepper's
>>71711027
In a thread people would post albums and the first 128 to get 4+ replies were selected, and randomly pitted against each other into this bracket. The first half of round 1 was voted on last night/this morning, and the 2nd half started around 5pm EST today.
>>71711027
(Actual OP here)
Well right now Sgt. Pepper's and The Money Store are very close right now, so is Yankee Hotel Foxtrot and Yeezus. Voting for the first half of the first round is done, and voting for the second half is going on until 10:30 AM tomorrow. Poll-guy bailed on us, and I have no idea where he went, so I'm doing the polls now.
Here's all the polls for the second half of the first round: http://pastebin.com/6j8bkrCc
>>71711068
FUCK
If this isn't evidence of vote rigging, I don't fucking know what. Poll remains dormant for an hour, Sgt. Pepper votes slowly trickling in but nothing gamechanging, then Death Grips completely skyrockets.
This is such bullshit.
>>71711093
Thanks OP.
>>71711096
No, it's evidence of very basic statistical concepts.
Stop being delusional, you're only embarrassing yourself.
>>71711093
>Poll-guy bailed on us, and I have no idea where he went, so I'm doing the polls now.
Right here
I'm kinda busy rn but I'll try to post polls when you need me to
>>71711093
All the times are in EST, by the way. Forgot to mention that.
>>71711096
I'll keep the Sgt. Pepper's vs Money Store and YKH vs Yeezus polls open in another browser, and if I see any more evidence of rigging, that album will be disqualified.
>>71711122
>very basic statistical concepts.
lmao
>>71711093
How was your day today OP
>>71711157
Pretty good. Haven't been doing anything except running this tournament all day.
>The Money Store is winning
I'm so glad.
>inb4 Death Grips suddenly """""coincidentally""""" gets 10+ votes
>>71711451
I actually voted for it since I was the guy asking what happened (>>71711027). Don't know about the 9 others.
>>71711451
Don't worry. I'm watching the poll. If I see a large spike in a short amount of time, I'm going to disqualify it.
>>71711490
but what if a beatles fag cheats to make it seem like its TMS.
disqualify both if its needed
>>71711535
Don't worry, I'll disqualify if a Beatlesfag tries to pull some shit, too.
>>71711558
Which a Beatlesfag has already tried to do....
>>71711535
So far nothing strange seems to happen, but if something happens, yeah, both to the trash, sadly.
>>71711564
I didn't see it happen. If I see it happen, it's goin' in the trash. Sorry for not noticing before.
>>71708797
>Bitches Brew vs Pink Moon
I-I CAN'T DO IT
They're so different but both are tip top quality
>>71711567
>>71711558
>>71711581
Anons, some while ago at 80 voters, sgt. pepper suddendly got 10 more
>make a non-captcha strawpoll
>suddenly wonder why it's being botted with ease
literal embarrassment of a thread holy fucking shit dude
>>71711605
Didn't see it happen. Innocent until proven guilty. That's how I'm gonna run this whole vote-rigging case.
>>71711616
>implying that matters if someone just uses a proxy/VPN
literal embarrassment of a post
seeing how quickly the worst album tournament fell apart, i'm glad this is going well
>mfw the only one of my favorites album is F#A# Infinity and it's not going to win because of Lift. Yr. Skinny Fists Like Antennas to Heaven
Fuck.
>>71711666
Someone wanna tell me what happened in that thread? I've been spending the whole day watching this thread.
>>71711643
>implying that it wouldn't be a million times easier to bot a poll without a captcha compared to going through a proxy and voting it manually
reading comprehension or retarded?
also
>seriously defending captchaless strawpolls
>>71711688
people are just posting mucore and other good records and getting endless replies just for the sake of memes
>>71711766
Well shit.
>>71711666
it's still going
only like 8 albums left til choosing closes
>>71709166
The title track alone is enough to earn a high placement
> Sgt. Pepper's gets over 10 votes and TMS not even one
Mmmmmmm...
>>71711957
I saw that. I'm considering whether to disqualify it or not.
>>71711974
just wait
>>71711992
I will.
>THE FACT THAT plays in the distance
I kinda want to see more tournaments like these on other boards.
Someone should do a best vidya game of all time tourney for /v/ or a best TV show of all time one for /tv/
you fuckin spergs picked Yeezus over Yankee hotel Foxtrot?
>>71712007
Idea:
If you see rigging, instead of disqualifying it, start a new poll and make the first album to get 15 or 20 votes the winner.
>>71712068
Hmm. I'll think about it.
>>71712040
I don't know/v/ but /tv/ would be the worst thing ever. They've been lost to memes forever.
I'm just here cause I saw Demon Days on that list.
>>71712068
how does that make sense
>>71708811
>OK Computer vs The Queen Is Dead
i know it's over
>>71708836
good
>>71712143
It makes more sense than disqualification
>>71712197
>>71712197
>>71712197
>>71712197
NEW THREAD
>>71709397
never listened to either but i hate long season and fishmans fans are some of the most annoying faggots on this board so i voted for violator
I'd do one for /sp/ but the results of something like best player would be predictable.
>>71712040
I think I'll do one for /v/ if they're interested
Would any of you /v/ crossboarder niggas want to be the chart person while I do the polls for it or nah
