Tournament of Maiden Solos: the Top 10 video!

[Saapanael]

Thanks, Foro, for hosting this mammoth of a tournament. It's interesting to see how the ranking turned out.

 

[Collin]

I never thought Dennis Stratton would make the top 20.

Thanks to everyone who made this possible!

 

[Forostar]

I never thought Dennis Stratton would make the top 20.

And with the most popular solo of the first four albums!

 

[Ariana]

Thanks for all your efforts, Foro and NP!
That's not how I would have ranked the solos, but I had a lot of fun participating.

 

[CriedWhenBrucieLeft]

Awesome awesome awesome, Foro! Good work NP also!

Overall, I'm pretty disappointed with the results though. Five Adrian Smith solos in the top seven is just too much.

 

[JudasMyGuide]

Thank you both for this one. The hugeness of this tournament was enormous.

 

[SixesAlltheway]

Excellent survivor. Thanks to everyone involved!

 

[adrian fn rules]

Yaaaaaas!

 

[Srogyy]

That was a great tournament. Huge props to Forostar for managing all the data. I'm happy with the winner, but I need time to take a look at the rest of the results.

I'm looking forward to TBoS mini-game! Are we going to do this? It should be fun - the amount of material to cover is not that overwhelming.

 

[Night Prowler]

Ah, what about a video with the top 10 in a row? If it's not ask too much...

Sure, why not.

@Forostar:
Numbers please

 

[frus]

This was the best game EVER!!!
Thanks a lot guys!

Agreed. 1 and 2 should have been the back to back Davey solos on Prodigal Son.

Yes, certainly! That would be a nice little epilogue to the game.

Nup.

My favorite Maiden solo won the game, the Top 6 is identical to my own Top 6. I'm a bit pissed about Adrian's Paschendale solo not making the Top 10, but can't complain.

Thanks for hosting!

 

[mckindog]

Great stuff guys.
And we even get a nice little Olympic touch with gold, silver and bronze fonts.

I've never ranked my top solos before, but I can tell you these are contenders:
Murray: Powerslave, Final Frontier
Gers: Alchemist, Como Estais, Here to Eternity
Smith: Sea of Madness, Stranger, Different World

Off the top of my head the best is Different World, but I'm sure I've overlooked a few that might be top 10.
