MISC 1 - KNOCKOUT POLL ROUND 1

There will be two 'miscellaneous' polls containing bonus tracks, b-sides, remixes, compilation only tracks and radio broadcast tracks.
Only material that has been officially released to the public domain will appear here.
The first poll will contain tracks released in the 90s. The second poll will include everything else after that.
Please vote for your TWO least favourite tracks.

Will there eventually be AFOT/OTV2/R35TT polls?

No. Only official material.
(Besides, can you imagine how long a knockout poll would last for OTV2's 36 tracks???? Do we really need to sit through 24 hours wait time to watch Blockbusters or Iraq says to be voted out!? Don't think I could stomach it!)
If people want to have these tracks included, I'd be willing to do a 'vote for your favourite track' poll for each instead, which could take a mere 24/48 hours. I could include the winner of each in the FINAL knockout poll? But a knockout poll for each is just too cumbersome a task.

I think you should make these rounds longer than the normal ones, since these are largely tracks that we aren't that familiar with compared to the full-length albums and EPs. I, for one, will have to make a playlist of these tracks in order to judge them appropriately.

What about.. "Last Walk Around Mirror Lake" "Poppy Seed" and "Poppy seed reprise", they should definitely be in their surely?
Oh and "seven forty seven"

Ahh yes sorry, on my phone it was hiding the first part and all I saw was the "Please vote for your.." part like in the other threads.

If you were to do old tunes polls I'd personally prefer you do them like the others, but perhaps vote for 3 or 4 least favourite for the starting rounds? It would cut them down much quicker, and I think considering many people on here love the old tunes, it's fair to give them the same or similar treatment.
I know they aren't official, but seeing the results of the final poll with them also in it could make things even more interesting.

This should be relatively interesting. Calling Happy Cycling for the win.

I would love for Orange Romeda to win, but there's a fair few I'd be happy with here

Surely as to not leave any stone unturned (we have made it this far) for longer compilations one can vote for their three least favourite tracks ?
It would be sad to see a lot of my personal favourites go unnoted.

Random 35 contains many of my favorite Boards of Canada tracks, so I would like to see what ends up being the winner there. It would be tough as hell to vote any tracks out, though, so I don't know whether I want that.

Not that I'm voting for it now, but just to be clear, the version of trapped being considered should just be the Hells Interface version
And not the one on Old Tunes! Since peacock tail said this is just official releases
So no one forget that whenever the time comes
I'd be much more willing to keep the Hells interface version honestly
