I see what people are saying but at the end of the day, there is no point in including songs that obviously aren't going to win in a poll where I am looking for the No 1 best song off the album.

I am 99.999% sure Novocaine wouldn't have won even it was included and theres no point in being abusive like some of the people on the thread have being just because one song isn't included.

Next time, I'll do what I did on the these days thread and ask people what not to include.

Yh, people have ranked the songs in order of preference before. I'm not doing that, I'm taking what's voted the best song off each album and then posting them in a final poll to get one song that can be seen as a good indicator of the overall fav song across the community. IT'S AN AVERAGE! YOU DON'T HAVE TO AGREE - some people seem to be struggling to understand what I'm doing and just blindly think I'm ranking tracks.

I do appreciate your polls matrix, thanks for bringing them up.

And I can't see how to make this any better, there's always someone complaining anyway.
Wasn't matrix bashed for asking which song to leave off the These Days poll?

There's just no way to please everybody.

You could do the polls without actually doing it in poll format, as had been done before.

Considering Novoacaine has won numerous HAND polls here before, I'm not really understanding your logic. And frankly, get off of your high horse. No one is attacking you, but there have been numerous polls doing EXACTLY the same thing you're trying to do, that have done so without leaving off any songs off of any of the albums.

lol, cheers. It was funny - someone sed the these days thread was the most pointless thread they ever read but someone else is saying its necessary to make the poll more fair. It's mad!

You know, if they'd just let people have more than 10 options in a poll this could be avoided.

Ok, show me some HAND polls novocaine has won and I'll agree. As for telling me to get off my high horse, I think people should be able to post polls without someone telling them it's "****ing stupid". Sorry, but I just thought as a community people could communicate without that kind of comment. If people aren't happy then don't vote, I ain't making them.

As for the format, I thought just being able to click on your choice was simplest. Obviously to get anything done around here you have to trawl through an absolute barrage of posts collating results for all the songs in case people get upset, rather than simply clicking a poll option.

Y'know, the simple answer here would be to include Novocaine and not DLS, as no other bonus tracks have been included in these polls, why should DLS?
