He doesn't need permission, but opening a survivor when he hardly understands the rules, not to mention for a band he doesn't even like, was silly.Well you included albums that aren't studio albums, like Garage inc. And Lulu wasn't even really a Metallica album. This round and particular was an failure because we're missing the poll. I get that your new here, but you shouldn't be running a survivor when your really this inexperienced. And I'm not sure about this but I think you have to get permission to start a survivor.
I'd suggest stopping this and I'll start an actual Metallica studio album survivor when my regular Metallica game ends.
