    I am * * to be honest. This is a heavyweight competiton and most people brought their A game right away.

    I never brought an A band or A game. Bigger names than me are about to go bye bye.

    I kind of underestimated this comp but to be honest I wanted to use one of my favourite bands and knew I wouldn't be winning. Never thought I would be gone in round 1 though. Having looked at my group I wont be using any more from my band lol.

    Hey Taz, considering how good the comp is just in the first round i think you should make first prize 10 million vs not just the 1 million. :icon_mrgreen:

    Mate i * taked it with Doris Day last time and made it through a couple of rounds. This time i went for a favourite lesser known band, so what the *? Watchakeekee (or whatever) made it pretty far

    I loved Waxahatchee but lets be honest this is a heavyweight comp.

    My group was dripping with superstars.

    I'm not progressing with my primary I'm sure of it.

    Getting really conflicted if i have to vote against my own band(s) in later rounds.
    If allowed to change my secondary artist then it could be a final of 3 of my favourite bands of all time.:54:

    15/20 have voted. Have ping'd a reminder to those still yet to vote. :50:

    Re, the request to switch secondary artist, the rule through the nomination process does say once the comp begins you are locked in. Othrwise, once people see who the competition is, they sometimes can think of alternatives in hindsight.

    Even though this is different and the secondarys have not got underway yet, allowing changes to be made after the comp has begun would set a precedent, so in fairness to all, the picks have to remain as they are. Nothing personal, just what is fair for one has to be the same for everyone. Sorry mate.
