• Welcome to The Cave of Dragonflies forums, where the smallest bugs live alongside the strongest dragons.

    Guests are not able to post messages or even read certain areas of the forums. Now, that's boring, don't you think? Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

Rules:

You have two plus points and four minus points. You must use all these points.

e.g.:

+2 Within Temptation
-4 Epica

+1 Lamb of God
+1 Symphony X
-4 Dethklok

+2 Alice in Chains
-2 Emilie Autumn
-2 Amon Amarth

but not like this:

+1 Qntal
-4 Killswitch Engage

+2 R.E.M.
-5 Sonata Arctica

+6 Motley Crue
-9 Gorillaz

You may vote once a day. You may vote at 11:58 pm and then three minutes later, providing that someone posted besides you in that time, i.e. no double posting.

Scoring and Updates:

All bands (or soloists) start on 20 points. When they hit 0, they're out.

The top 20 contestants qualify automatically for next year.

I will update this way:

100-25 contestants: Every other page
25-10 contestants: Every page
10-3 contestants: Two per page

My last update will be at three contestants, at which point you must post the contestant's (resulting) score with each up- or down-vote.

The new rule is revealed now. It's this:

If you kill the contestant who finishes 100th, 90th, 75th, 50th, 25th, or 10th, you get a Save. You may use your Save to revive a dead band, albeit on 10 points instead of 20. If you use it, you will not have a Save unless you earn another Save. You may only use it when there are six (6) contestants or more remaining, you may save your Save (no pun intended) for whenever you like, and if you earn a Save when you have one, you will have multiple Saves.

The user with the most kills, again, wins the Golden Gun Award.

I officially declare the 2008/09 Music Tournament open! As is customary, I will fire the first shot.

+1 Lamb of God
+1 Dethklok
