*OFFICIAL* STP Song Tourney: Results & New Poll!
« on: May 03, 2011, 05:33:10 AM »
First and foremost, I have to thank everyone who participated and made this whole venture a success. I really appreciate all the positive feedback and compliments on running this tourney. It was really fun to do and I consider it a privilege to contribute something to this awesome website that hosts the most awesome fans in the world! This is the only place I can come where I know I'm accepted and understood for my STP obsession. So, THANKS!

I feel like an annual tourney is in order and when the time rolls around again next year, I'll be more than happy to operate it again.

Now, as you all know, the winner was the number 2 seed, from Purple, Interstate Love Song. Not much of a surprise, I suppose, but it was exciting to watch it unravel. Here is a link to view the official song rankings from this tourney -------> HERE (click 'Full Results' to view the rankings on that page)

Since there was a nice reaction to the polling concept of "anything-STP" I've been thinking of new and unique polls to host. I came up with one immediately (or maybe I read it as a suggestion some time ago) about matching all the album track listings against each other. This is pretty simple and relatively short-term, but it's something for you all to have fun with for the time being. I'm working on something a bit bigger and much more interactive, but not quite done.

In any case, there are 13 match-ups that are pretty self-explanatory. Since SLDD is the only album with 13 tracks, I matched Long Way Home against the outtakes and All in the Suit. The idea behind this poll is to vote on your FAVORITE of the bunch. At the end, we'll compile at 13 track album of the winners.

Hope you like this for now; and I'll fill you all in on my other idea very soon. Please, please, please, only vote ONE time. I'll be really disappointed to see anything over 40-something votes in this poll when the last two polls hosted on this site barely drew that many, whereas one of the controversial polls earlier drew something like 95 votes. Get what I'm saying?

Anyway, have fun and enjoy!

Awesome.  Cool new poll.  An idea for next time, not to say it wasn't already excellently done, but it'd be cool to see if there was a better way to come up with the ranks.  Maybe use info from the "rank the STP songs" threads or something, or use information from this year's poll.  Just my 2 cents.
Picked a song, sang a yellow nectarine.
