GREATEST METAL ALBUM CUP - Winner: Iron Maiden - Seventh Son of a Seventh Son!

@LooseCannon

I noticed that you listed me among the people who nominated Fear Inoculum by Tool a number of times, you must have an error in your notes as I didn't nominate that album.

(Haven't even heard that album, in fact)
 
I probably made the mistake at the beginning and it filtered through.

Yeah, it looks like Travis nominated it and he is right next to you in the spreadsheet. I'll fix it for the most recent one so it carries forward.
 
Normally you get this if someone votes for ------- but this is not the case here apparently.
So where are the missing 8 percent?

I think it's because someone only voted in the Purple/Pantera contest, i.e. there was 25 votes in that one so each vote is 4 percent, however in the other contests only 24 people have voted so they are all missing 4%

EDIT: and in your example only 23 voted hence 8% missing

But earlier it always summed up to 100 per cent no matter how many people voted. Seems to be different since LC refreshed the pole.

It shouldn't have been. And in fact it was doing the current behaviour earlier.
 
Bathory just doesn't appeal to me, so Van Halen wins the first match by default.

Pantera. easily.

The third match was pretty close, but Helloween has more to offer, here.

Sepultura was actually pretty decent, but there are very few albums that can approach the level of Divine Wings. Symphony X. Also, fun fact, we've now gone through every single song on the album.
 
Bathory burns up Van Halen's last GMAC album. They've won the right to face Halford in League 3.
Pantera holds on against Deep Purple to advance. Deep Purple has one album left, you know which one it is, and it's in League 2.
Helloween byooories Sabaton in GMAC history. The Swedes are done, and next up is Faith No More.
Symphony X handles Sepultura with some ease. We'll see them again, also in League 2.
