Dream Theater Studio Album Survivor: Images & Words wins!

Satisfied with the results?

This time it's a three way tie. This is starting to get ridiculous, so unless you guys like tiebreakers, I propose that we decide tiebreakers based on past votes, like a normal survivor that isn't in top ten.
 
None of these deserve to go yet. I'm abstaining for right now. Maybe I'll change my mind later.
 
Ugh. If only to stall Falling Into Infinity's inevitable early death, I'll go with Dramatic.
 
After giving some thought, I'm going ADTOE as well. Not only do I prefer the longer songs on FII, but I think it has strong shorter songs too. The only "short" song I care for on ADTOE is Beneath the Surface (unless you count OTBOA). FII on the other hand has Hell's Kitchen, Hollow Years, Peruvian Skies, and even Take Away My Pain. I can skip the three really bad songs and still get a pretty good album. With ADTOE I tend to just go for the epics and ignore everything else.

And now we've reached the point where this gets tough. All top tier albums for me. I suppose at this point it comes down to DT12 vs Train of Thought; I listened to both today and I'm still not sure which I prefer. It doesn't help that DT12 still has that new album buzz for me.
 
I know the s/t is new, but it's had such an impact on my life (lyrically and musically) that I simply can't vote against it.
