War Of Epics: Results

[Brigantium]

Rime.

 

[RTC]

Both songs capture the concept of an epic splendidly, but the difference for me is that Stargazer has only 8 and a half minutes to play with, whereas Rime has nearly 14 and needs to space it out.

Stargazer, but Rime is a worthy winner also.

 

[Night Prowler]

Why is this tied... it's pretty clear which song is better

 

[The Flash]

Not tied anymore. Rime.

The one about what not to do when a bird shits on you.

This is just ridiculous.

This is just ridiculous.

How so? I voted Stargazer myself, but it's not like Rime is When/All Within My Hands or something.

 

[Night Prowler]

Stargazer is better than Rime in all possible ways.

 

[SinisterMinisterX]

True story. Stargazer happened to me yesterday. Sort of.

Was out at a store. Walked out of that store, and a crazy old man was walking by at that time, talking loudly to himself...

"as he falls"

I'm walking away thinking, public annoyance, what an ass... when he finished his sentence.

"instead of rising"

I stopped dead in my tracks, walked back, and gave the old man a high five.

Stargazer is better than Rime in all possible ways.

I guess I agree as I think Stargazer is the best epic that has been in this game at all, but still, I don't think the anger towards Rime winning is justified. It is an IM forum, and Rime is one of their best and most popular songs after all.

Thanks to all the voters! Hope the game was fun for you as it was for me I'm not satisfied with the blasphemous results though.

Thanks for hosting, NP! It was a lot of fun, and I'm quite satisfied with Alter Bridge's result. The next milestone is to beat Rush.

 

[Brigantium]

Cheers for hosting! I wasn't sure about it to begin with, but it's been good.

 

[Black Wizard]

Rush are above Alter Bridge in one list and below them in the other.
