Interesting indeed. The poll was closed as soon as Genesis took the lead, after being behind Yes for days.

It was scheduled:
Schedule for Upcoming Matches
Round 3 Division 2 - September 19
Round 3 Division 3 - September 22
Round 3 Division 4 - Septemeber 26
Round 3 Division 5 - September 30
Undercover Boy closes the polls at the same time
Learn to loose, I seen Genesis behind Yes in most polls since I joined in 2004..

In Finland it was still 19th of september 20 minutes ago... It was a tie back then! ... I'm only joking, you know. I guess I have to wait for Yes to win Genesis in some future poll.

Well, that was exciting. To be honest, I would've been happy whatever the outcome. I seriously thought it'd be Yes toward the end, but it's Genesis... so

So has this ended? because it's a tie at the moment (109 a piece).
It's basically too close between them for it to be fair for either to win.

Well, my girl logged to her PA account on my computer and wanted to vote for Genesis, but she couldn't, because it said that she already voted, which she haven't. Because she's using the same IP address as I do (she lacks internet on her own). So count it +1 to Genesis if you want to. 'f course, she loves Genesis, I love Genesis. Yes I do love as well, but not that much.

Anderson III, I believe Undercover Boy gives always the same number of days for each poll (Maybe you should post it UB), but I believe that inthis case the margin was too narrow to eliminate one of both.
Anyway, if somebody has to leave, I'm pleased it's Yes.

I feel that eliminating Yes would be unfair! It seems like you waited for the second that Yes wasn't leading to close the poll. I'm not saying that this really took place, but that's what it feels like.

Aw, and Yes was solidly ahead for a few days. What bad timing.

Alright.
Poll's over. The winner of R1D3 of Battle of the Prog Bands is Genesis. Genesis will now move onto Round 4, and Yes is out of the tournament. They do deserve an honorable mention, though, seeing as they were only 1 vote behind. See you at the next match of Battle of the Prog Bands!

The rules should change you should take the winner with lowest number of votes and change it for the band who looses here.
You can't get Genesis or Yes out so early, for God's sake, we have 216 votes.

^ Completely agree.
Alas, there is still hope!

Holy. Flipping. Cow.
They're tied. 108 to 108.
I'm literally frightened.

I knew the day would come.
Let's see. I love more of Genesis's albums, yet some of Yes's songs just blow my mind (not meaning Genesis doesn't blow my mind  ).
I guess I like Genesis more.... But I can't seem to click on the little Cast My Vote button. Hmm...
Oh, no! They're tied!  |
Come on Chela!!! I sure hope you hit that little "cast my vote button" ....like...NOW!!! Oh, just make sure it's for Genesis.  |
I did my part.
It's all up for grabs now

A two point difference, Genesis are now back within two points. The Premeiership was never this much fun or exciting. Oh Yes.
