I see what I did wrong --- Mahlerian's post stands as the correct readjustment.

Okay then, to simplify this and avoid further confusion, I propose the following additional rules:

- Any poster who does not vote for Wagner or Boulez is automatically disqualified.
- Any composer whose score surpasses  that of Wagner, Boulez or Debussy , is automatically disqualified.
- Any poster who disagrees with these rules is automatically disqualified.

All for the sake of making the game easier for all, I insist. No need to thank me, guys.  ;)

;D ;D ;D

You'd have to hold a gun to my head to vote for either Boulez or Wagner. ;D

Edit: Well, to be fair, Wagner is a much easier sell than Boulez. ;) I do rather enjoy Wagner's Parsifal, Das Rheingold, and Tristan und Isolde. I remember spending one summer listening to the entire Der Ring des Nibelungen. It was an experience I probably won't repeat for a long-time, but it was enjoyable I must say.

I'm likely to vote for Wagner and/or Boulez in the future...can I remain in?

Can we vote more than once for the same composer ? I mean, while respecting the once a day rule. For some reason I was under the impression that, once you've voted for a commposer you couldn't any more  ::).

Yes. The one vote rule only applies to the initial stage of the game.

I went to sleep for a few hours and woke to find that Mahlerian fixed a big mess - a big thanks to the Fixer.  Let's try to adhere to the rules.  As for Wagner's disappearance - it happens now and then.  What's even stranger is when I eliminate an entry at half-time and later find that someone has put that entry right back into the game with higher points.  That's what I call creative cheating.   

Of course, you can vote for the same composer on a daily basis; I do it all the time unless I think that the composer is going nowhere in the scoring.  I don't want to vote for losers!

Anyways, reply #31 is the reference for copy and pasting.

Just one more thing.  I know everyone here is intelligent, but intelligence is not the prime ingredient for playing these games correctly.  FOCUS and CONCENTRATION are the key elelements.
