In this fase not a word spent on the elimination of the mighty Painkiller?
It almost made it, since it had as many votes as Darkside of Aquarius. Perhaps a tiebreak would have been better, but I am not running this one of course.
 
I meant to vote for 'Stargazer' ('Darkside of Aquarius' is my favourite Bruce Dickinson solo song) but accidentally clicked 'Darkside of Aquarius' instead. ::) Not that it makes the slightest bit of difference though.
 
I thought it was tough at first but after listening to Stargazer's opening sequence, I changed my mind.

Darkside of Aquarius
 
Darkside of Aquarius is good, but at this forum it's a little overrated.
Stargazer shall win.

This was a lot of fun and it was nice to see something else win the game for a change. Also, I don't ever want to hear anything about this forum having a Maiden bias after this. :D
Thanks for playing everyone!
 
Evil too high, Still Life and SiaSL too low and not enough Priest or Iced Earth in the top 10s. But happy to see that Maiden didn't just dominate everything. And Stargazer at #1 is a given.

EDIT: Also thanks for hosting Mosh.

Thanks for hosting

I feel some Priest songs (Painkiller included) should have ended up higher but it was a good ride !
 
So would you guys be interested in another head-to-head style survivor game like this one? I really liked this format and was thinking of trying a new Tournament of Champions-esque game.

Depends on what you think of "ToC-esque".
