Beatle Album Tournament, Round 2
Voting to continue until at least 8:00 PM CDT, October 23, 2004. Please leave the number by the album for ease of counting.
1. REVOLVER 8. LET IT BE 5. ABBEY ROAD 4. THE BEATLES (The White Album) 3. RUBBER SOUL 11. HELP! 7. A HARD DAY'S NIGHT 2. SGT. PEPPER Quick analysis of the first round: For the first time in five opening rounds, one of the top seven seeds lost. The win for HELP! pits the duo from 1965. In times past, the action has been between the 4 and 5 seeds in this round, but since this is a new crowd that has already surprised me , I'm looking forward to seeing how this unfolds. |

My response is, "I like to put forks in an eletrical socket, just LOVE that feeling, can't ever get enough of it, so will you let me put this copper fork in that electric socket?" |

Your seeding is a travesty, as I believe White Album and Abbey Road should be in the finals, not the quarter finals (sigh).
1. Revolver 4. Abbey Road 3. Rubber Soul 7. Hard Day's Night

Let's keep in mind that the object here is to determine the winner; just like the NCAA basketball tournament in the US or virtually any other sports event, the two best teams could meet in the semis or quarterfinals. The desired result is to have the two best square off in the finals, but that's not always the way it works. Despite the "travesty" I made of this, I hope you're enjoying it! |

And I personally would have rated them differently. My top four in this order would be MAGICAL MYSTERY TOUR, PAST MASTERS 2, REVOLVER and PEPPER. I say that only to point out that the seeding wasn't totally subjective, or else it would have been different. |
