well i think the fact that it was forgotten says a whole lot about its popularity.  i\'m creating a poll and we\'ll let the people decide.

It is just a good fast rocking tune. good blues riffs. Me likes

I don\'t mind Tricky Ways but I wouldn\'t expect it to make it past the first round in the TOT.

I don\'t like any of the options in this poll

1.  Forget it, it\'s not that great...

not true.  it\'s a very cool song.

It deserves a chance, lets figure out how to implement it without restarting the tourney.

per Dave, the TOT is a huge pain for him.  Let\'s not give him any more work then he\'s already doing.

Misdeal! Start over!

See above

How about we just chalk it up as a mistake. And add it next year.

i mean i don\'t think it\'s a bad tune. i really don\'t think any breakfast tunes are that bad just way down there on my preference list to the point that it not being in the tourney doesn\'t matter to me

I don\'t think I saw kote in there either. Niether song stands a chance. put in a new poll with them as level -20, and then in round 2 put the winner up against buquebus. problem solved.

That being said, to put this thing together does take a ton of time and I think dave deserves some recognition for it. :thumbsup:

Kote already lost. No biggie, TW can just sit this year out. Dave, thank you for the time and effort that you put into the TOT and also .info in general!

the fun little patchadams game is over. the user has been banned due to the fact that votes were being placed in the TOT by the user, and i now have to try to find a way to get rid of all the votes, or manually make adjustments to every single fucking poll.

While I don\'t think it would have gotten to far, I think it def deserves a chance.  but start all over again?  nah fuck that.  I\'m sure as Dave said that this whole thing is a pain in the ass.  I\'m sure it certainly won\'t be forgotten next year now.

while I completely understand, that would be a very sad thing.  The TOT is always fun.
