if this is how you feel then how about - people need to stop using us then.

dont offer something and not offer up the conclusion. its like reading some really great book and then having some jerk burn the last 2 pages.

    i have a survey from 1985 about what people prefer VHS or Beta. sorry, i dont want to release the results yet, because people may still be voting.

    extreme example? yes
    stupid argument? oh hell yes.
    similar logic to jake's argument? without a doubt yes.

    that is all. case closed. lock it up.

    Holy christ, you're not putting an ounce of thought into this at all are you? The surveys are ENTIRELY different in that the winner is only for informational purposes in your survey and there are only two choices, while the one on this site has many options that actually influence those people's lives. There are FAR more variables to consider

    First of all, i cant believe people are shocked blue water wasnt played. no where in his poll did stefan say "we will play the winner." he probably went back to the band with the results and they all probably had a good laugh. as said before SUAD was#2 and we got that.

    you really are an idiot arent you? stop crying. new people join this site daily, shouldnt they deserve a vote. i still occasionally vote for shows, if someone posts a setlist and i like it.

    i can tell you that Camden N2, Hollywood Bowl, and 12.3.98 are definitely in the top10. its obvious people like these shows.

    you obviously will never be confused with a rocket scientist, thats for sure!

    trust me, we dont have the power to get DMB to release a certain show so dont kid yourself. also, people would not vote for it if they didnt want it, you should know that. there are more haters on this board that complain about everything DMB does, you think they will actually go to a show they hated/dislike and vote for it? no way! i actually bet more people would go in and vote "dont make this a livetrax" if this was an option. haha

    in addition, there is no way people are still voting anymore. at your rate, eventually you are just going to get everyone to vote for everything.

    and you said that you are already letting DMB management know the voting results, so whats with that! you are just holding out on the very people that voted! thats wrong!

    btw - I voted for LT11, so I am happy. if you dont release the votes, there are other subtle ways of finding out that are more effort, but atleast we would have an idea vs. what you are giving us, which is NOTHING!

    and yes, I really have a huge problem with this. I think you are on some weird ass power trip and your justifications are awful AND quite frankly dumb. "what if I said 20 more votes and dmb will release this". wow. give me a freaking break.

    and if you ban me because i hurt your feelings and you want to have the last word, then that shows how wrong you are.

    You should just calm down. This was not the point of this thread. You are using this a forum to trash management and personally I don't like it. Get over it. I am just trying to get some information and you are beating a dead horse here.

Therefore, in a survey in which people can vote for whatever and as many shows as they want that could possibly have an effect on the mgmt, you must rule out as many variables as possible. In lieu of the situation that it's an "all you can click" voting scheme, it has to remain unbiased. They want our TRUE opinions of our favorite shows. This is impossible if any information is revealed.
    Perfectly said.

    That's all I'll say - no hints or anything on the year/venue/songs. Sorry. We'll get some info out eventually, but we want to make sure everything is... well... let's just say we're waiting.
    And i'm sure it's 7.25.01

    Re: Any news on how the Live Trax voting is going?

    So, do voting numbers automatically go back to zero after each Live Trax release by the band? Or is it a continual tally? Obviously, ones that the band release would be taken off the board, even if that show isn't winning in votes. Does this question even make sense?

    no your question doesnt make sense, why would it reset after each release.

    to answer your question (im not in charge of this but i would guess) its a continual tally.

    Honestly I think all this voting is being done in vain. Who says that once there is a "winner" that it will ever become an official Live Trax...

    There is not a "winner". It is a continuous voting process and will just give ideas to the Band's management as to what the fan base wants. WE are the winners for them listening to anything we are asking for. The voting is just a way to measure which concerts the fan base enjoyed. As long as we keep voicing our opinons on which concerts are our favorites then the band will hear what we want. They could use that to release new Live Trax or hell they might even use that info to see what songs we want to hear again and it could effect set lists. Either way we all just need to keep voting and we will see good things coming.
