So, when will be approximately known "Post 70´s Prog Champion"? I guess on Christmas probably, because your polls seem too prolonged for me ...Head on wall

Hello all . . . 

If one could . . . stop for a  . . . moment.   and consider . . . society as a whole, what does it really . . . mean.  

I think when you look . .. within yourself.  The prevailing view of what we call . . . society . . . can be questionable at . . . best

My exact reasoning for why I voted for The Flower Kings.

Flower KIngs for me because of the strength of their entire discography. I love BBT also, especially the last three releases.
A GREAT YEAR FOR PROG!!!

I love both these band. I'd give TFK a slight advantage on the modern symph-loving side of me, but Big Big Train gets an advantage in the melodic/crossover prog side of me. I voted for BBT because I don't think they'll get a lot of votes, but they deserve them.
But don't get me wrong, I love TFk too. I would love for both of them to advance. LOL

Big Big Train for me - The Underfall Yard is a wonderful album. I know lots of people love The Flower Kings, but I'ver never really got into them for some reason.

No no no, silly person, you posted it on the Internet which invites comment from a series of ninnys, myself included.  I think what you're confusing this with is a private message which is where you would have only asked Morningrise.

To clear things up (or not), I don't have the slightest idea when this tournament is going to end. Frankly I don't care. Until now, each poll has been about 3 days of duration. You can do the math if you desperately need an answer. But perhaps in the future I will extend the duration for the last rounds. Or shorten them, if I get tired of this, who knows?.

Perhaps I could have closed the first series of polls of this round a little earlier. The ones Riverside and Porcupine Tree stole.
 
On the other hand, you can't say the other 2 were prolonged. When I close them, they were still on fire. 11 pages of debate on 3 days on the Spock's Beard-GY!BE poll. Try to beat that.
