Not even that, I guess making some of the hardest most innovative beats just isn't important.

hey, if they suck, they suck. I'm not going to put an influental artist over a good artist.

LOL, they're good. In fact, they're GREAT.

Yeah, well, you know... that's just, like, your opinion, man.

ProggyMan · 03-07-2009, 06:35 PM

Well yeah, did I say it was a fact?

You vilify his opinion that PE shouldn't be in the final 2, and justify it with... your opinion.

I personally agree with, wait, I forget who you were talking about this with. FaSho? Anyway, I agree with FaSho (?) in that I wasn't voting based on influence or reputation or any of that.

Also, I don't think this is the most indicative final just based on the format. IMO you have to do this March Madness style with nominations, then voting to rank them in seedings, then playing 1 v. 1 matchups. I ran a "Hottest Woman" tournament this way and it worked out pretty well

Yeah, it's called disagreeing.

Never said it was.

Doing the voting with huge groups just at random allows for a crapshoot final that usually pins groups that overall people wouldn't necessarily put there.

Agreed on the first part, but 1v1 matchups do nothing to solve this.

What a hostile group of people the hip-hoppers on this board are.

What do you expect when you say Public Enemy shouldn't be anywhere near this final. If you're going to say stuff like that you can't expect people not to react negatively.
