Jethro42: Progland Elimination Rd

Donchivo 04.30.22	Excited for this! As a newbie to the tournament, how does the elimination round work?
zakalwe 04.30.22	From recollection you select the top 4 out of these
Jethro42 04.30.22	I want you to give your top 4 ranking out of these ten. So if Jono El Grande was your favorite, followed by The Mercury Tree, Pekka Pohjola and Novela, you would say ''1. Jono El Grande, 2. The Mercury Tree, 3. Pekka Pohjola and 4. Novela''. I will weight the number 1 spot over number 2, etc. Voting ends May the 7th.
Jethro42 04.30.22	Whoa, quick move guys. This Elimination Rd is still under construction. We still need the winner between Steel Mill and Present.
bgillesp 04.30.22	I known what my top 2 votes will be but I do not know the order. I think I know what my next 2 will be, but there are 3 in the running
Jethro42 04.30.22	I created that list too quickly. Due to the absence of Shark, I asked Intruder for help in regard to Steel Mill vs Present. I'm always waiting for one or another.
bgillesp 05.01.22	I’m taking the M10 into account for my thoughts. Whichever wins is probably going to get my number 4 vote unless Pekka grows on me some more
e210013 05.01.22	Nice to see that you chosen the same method of the last tournament. I have already 3 of my finalists. But, we need to wait for the last one to have a final decision. And I also need to decide the proper order.
Divaman 05.01.22	I already know my vote for this round, pending who wins the last matchup in Round 1.
Jethro42 05.01.22	Present got the tenth spot, finally. So let's all begin.
Divaman 05.01.22	OK. As promised, here's my vote: 1. Il Giardino Onirico - Apofenia 2. Novela - Sanctuary 3. Jono El Grande - Melody of a Muddled Mason 4. SBB - Memento Z Banalnym Tryptykiem
e210013 05.01.22	Ok. Here is my vote too. As these are the only albums which I gave 4.5, here they're by the order I chose. 1. Il Giardino Onirico - Apofenia 2. Present - Barbaro 3. Jono El Grande - Melody Of A Muddled Mason 4. Pekka Pohjola - Visitation
zakalwe 05.01.22	1. Circus - Movin On 2. Jono El Grande - Melody of a Muddled Mason 3. Il Giardino Onirico - Apofenia 4. Pekka Pohjola - Visitation
kalkwiese 05.01.22	Tactical comment. I need to revisit a lotnof these
porcupinetheater 05.01.22	Ditto, know 3 of my 4, but that fourth spot is all sorts of up for grabs
Jethro42 05.01.22	What a puzzle! Same here for my fourth spot. By chance they aren't five.
Jethro42 05.02.22	Here is ''approximately'' my ranking; 1. Il Giardino Onirico - Apofenia 2. Novela - Sanctuary 3. Present - Barbaro 4. Axis (GR) - Axis
Friday13th 05.02.22	1. Mercury Tree 2. Circus 3. Il Giardino Onirico 4. Pekka Pohjola
Jethro42 05.02.22	@Friday, pardon me if I borrowed your words. It was the best way to make me clear. :)
Friday13th 05.02.22	that’s perfect! no worries
Scheumke 05.02.22	God I'm so sorry I completely missed the last two weeks. Had a crazy time personally but should've posted something and let you guys know! Apologies to the people who's rec I missed :(. I will do a thorough listen of the two winners to give my top 4!
Donchivo 05.02.22	1. Circus 2. Axis (Gr.) 3. Maquina! 4. Mercury Tree Present and Novela being very close to snag that no. 4 spot...
e210013 05.02.22	To make this phase more perceptible and after 6 contestants had already voted we have the following contability in points: Il Giardino Onirico - Apofenia = 16 Circus - Movin On = 11 Jono El Grande - Melody Of A Muddled Mason = 7 Novela - Sanctuary = 6 Mercury Tree = 5 Present - Barbaro = 5 Axis (GR) - Axis = 4 Pekka Pohjola - Visitation = 3 Maquina! = 2 SBB - Memento Z Banalnym Tryptykiem = 1 I hope you don't mind I did this Jethro. It's more exciting. Lol.
Mythodea 05.02.22	I believe my top 4 should be 1. Axis (GR) - Axis 2. Circus - Moving On 3. Il Giardino Onirico - Apofenia 4. Mercury Tree - Spidermilk I kind of love most of the albums now, though, and Novela is a weirdly likeable thingy, but, yeah, I believe the above stuck with me the most this year
TheIntruder 05.02.22	My votes are: 1. SBB - Memento Z Banalnym Tryptykiem 2. Present - Barbaro 3. Circus - Movin On 4. Pekka Pohjola It is a pity that I cannot include Il Giardino Onirico - Apofenia rated in the 5th place. Sorry Jethro.
e210013 05.02.22	After 8 participants have voted, Divaman, e210013, zakalwe, Jethro42, Friday13th, Donchivo, Mythodea and The Intruder, the present contability in points is: Il Giardino Onirico - Apofenia = 18 Circus - Movin On = 16 Axis (GR) - Axis = 8 Present - Barbaro = 8 Jono El Grande - Melody Of A Muddled Mason = 7 Mercury Tree = 6 Novela - Sanctuary = 6 SBB - Memento Z Banalnym Tryptykiem = 5 Pekka Pohjola - Visitation = 4 Maquina! = 2
bgillesp 05.02.22	Oof, hurts to see myself in last place, but I kinda expected it. I just finished my last exam that matters for my first year of med school, so I'll have plenty of free time in the next couple days to finalize my rankings
e210013 05.02.22	Nice bgillesp. Don't be worried. If this don't works so well, I'm sure that it will runs better as a doctor. Lol. Many luck for your career, pal. I mean it seriously.
SlothcoreSam 05.02.22	1. Il Giardino Onirico - Apofenia 2. Jono El Grande - Melody Of A Muddled Mason 3. SBB - Memento Z Banalnym Tryptykiem 4. Maquina- Why?
e210013 05.02.22	After 9 participants have voted, Divaman, e210013, zakalwe, Jethro42, Friday13th, Donchivo, Mythodea, The Intruder and SlothcoreSam the present contability in points is: Il Giardino Onirico - Apofenia = 22 Circus - Movin On = 16 Jono El Grande - Melody Of A Muddled Mason = 10 Axis (GR) - Axis = 8 Present - Barbaro = 8 SBB - Memento Z Banalnym Tryptykiem = 7 Mercury Tree = 6 Novela - Sanctuary = 6 Pekka Pohjola - Visitation = 4 Maquina! = 3
Jethro42 05.02.22	@e21, your tally is acurate. And I give you the freedom to do it :) @Intruder, no worries; the fifth spot wouldn't be in a paying zone :)
e210013 05.02.22	Thanks Jethro. It seems your boat sails with very strong winds.
Jethro42 05.02.22	I will have to be careful not to fall into the water! Lol
e210013 05.02.22	Lol.
Jethro42 05.02.22	@Scheumke; Welcome back, dude!
Zig 05.02.22	1. Pekka Pohjola - Visitation 2. Present - Barbaro 3. Jono El Grande - Melody Of A Muddled Mason 4. Circus - Movin' On
SharkTooth 05.02.22	I have to do a relisten to vote this, but I gotta say, Il Giardino Onirico is absolutely stellar
bgillesp 05.02.22	I have my top 4 settled now. I just need to figure out which is number 1 between Apofenia and Why and if Present can squeeze out 3rd over SBB
porcupinetheater 05.02.22	Alright upon relistening im ready 2 go 1. Present - Barbaro 2. Circus - Movin' On 3. The Mercury Tree - Spidermilk 4. Maquina! - Why?
porcupinetheater 05.02.22	Was between Maquina!, Pekka Pig, and Giardiniera Onion for the last spot, but Maquina!'s just got the sweet "Melody? Who gives a rat's ass?" chutzpah and i'm here for it, gotta fly the flag
e210013 05.02.22	After 11 participants have voted, Divaman, e210013, zakalwe, Jethro42, Friday13th, Donchivo, Mythodea, The Intruder, SlothcoreSam, Zig and porcupinetheater, the present contability in points is: Il Giardino Onirico - Apofenia = 22 Circus - Movin On = 20 Present - Barbaro = 15 Jono El Grande - Melody Of A Muddled Mason = 12 Axis (GR) - Axis = 8 Mercury Tree = 8 Pekka Pohjola - Visitation = 8 SBB - Memento Z Banalnym Tryptykiem = 7 Novela - Sanctuary = 6 Maquina! = 4
bgillesp 05.03.22	The 2 biggest surprises for me so far are that SBB isnt getting may votes and Circus is getting a lot. I didn’t realize people felt that strongly about Circus nor did I realize people didn’t love SBB as one of the favorites
Jethro42 05.03.22	Lol porc. You and your pig sense of humour. My friends, one minute of silence; it's more tight than it was. Thanks for your tally, e21 bro. Always acurate!
Jethro42 05.03.22	@bgill, I would have liked to give to you a spot, although you would only get one more point. But seriously, it saddens me to see your entry being the last one so far.
bgillesp 05.03.22	Eh, it’s fine. I didn’t expect this one to be a universal hit, so I’m just happy there are several who enjoyed it
bgillesp 05.03.22	I also know that I have a huge bias for Spanish/Portuguese prog and music in general that not everyone shares. I even found a silly little music AI that’s supposed to guess your favorite music style off some random world folk songs and it’s guess for me was Buika, a Spanish flamenco/jazz singer with a lot of Nina Simone vibes. Funnily enough it was dead on and I gave the album I checked from her a 4.5
Mythodea 05.03.22	That sounds interesting, bgillesp. What's the name of it?
Sabrutin 05.03.22	Gotta try to save some of my favs! 1. Axis (GR) - Axis 2. Pekka Pohjola - Visitation 3. SBB - Memento Z Banalnym Tryptykiem 4. Il giardino onirico - Apofenia
e210013 05.03.22	After 12 participants have voted, Divaman, e210013, zakalwe, Jethro42, Friday13th, Donchivo, Mythodea, The Intruder, SlothcoreSam, Zig, porcupinetheater and Sabrutin, here is the present situation in points: Il Giardino Onirico - Apofenia = 23 Circus - Movin On = 20 Present - Barbaro = 15 Axis (GR) - Axis = 12 Jono El Grande - Melody Of A Muddled Mason = 12 Pekka Pohjola - Visitation = 11 SBB - Memento Z Banalnym Tryptykiem = 9 Mercury Tree = 8 Novela - Sanctuary = 6 Maquina! = 4
zakalwe 05.03.22	Good work e
Sabrutin 05.03.22	yeah that was surgically quick lol
e210013 05.03.22	Thanks guys. But you know, Jethro pays very well in these days. Lol.
bgillesp 05.03.22	https://www.themusiclab.org/quizzes/jan It was this @Myth
bgillesp 05.03.22	@sab, is that your actual ranking or is that based on how many votes they had at the time?
Jethro42 05.03.22	@e21; If you want to get paid, keep on working!
e210013 05.03.22	Ok Jethro. But don't go back. You promised, you promised.
Sabrutin 05.03.22	@bgillesp: yes, it works as a ranking since Supersister is no longer with us. That would have been my top spot
Jethro42 05.03.22	@e21; If you continue, I'll cover you with gold :)
Mythodea 05.03.22	@Bgillesp thanks bro @e you're the glue keeping us together
Jethro42 05.03.22	''You promised, you promised'' makes me think of ''Eleventh Earl of Mar'' by Genesis.
Friday13th 05.03.22	^ perfect reference lol
wham49 05.03.22	2,3,4,5
e210013 05.03.22	After 13 participants have voted, Divaman, e210013, zakalwe, Jethro42, Friday13th, Donchivo, Mythodea, The Intruder, SlothcoreSam, Zig, porcupinetheater, Sabrutin and wham49, here we are: Circus - Movin On = 23 Il Giardino Onirico - Apofenia = 23 Present - Barbaro = 15 Axis (GR) - Axis = 13 Jono El Grande - Melody Of A Muddled Mason = 12 Pekka Pohjola - Visitation = 11 SBB - Memento Z Banalnym Tryptykiem = 11 Maquina! = 8 Mercury Tree = 8 Novela - Sanctuary = 6 I hope this is another contribute to be covered by gold.
e210013 05.03.22	'You promised, you promised'' makes me think of ''Eleventh Earl of Mar'' by Genesis. And you think well, my friend.
Jethro42 05.03.22	@Friday and e21, you know Wind & Wuthering well, it seems. e21, keep the good work coming!!!
e210013 05.03.22	He Knows, You Know.
Jethro42 05.03.22	But he's got problems!
e210013 05.03.22	But I hope you don't, with your boat. Lol.
Jethro42 05.03.22	Cross your fingers. Water is too cold!
e210013 05.03.22	Depends of the place of the sinking.
Jethro42 05.03.22	No sinking to be seen, captain! But seriously, the first four have equal chances to win, is it exact?
e210013 05.03.22	Mathematically all can win in this moment. Even the 5th, 6th and 7th, are very close. 8 contestants to go. So, many points are in dispute. We'll see.
Jethro42 05.03.22	Yes, sure, everything could happen still. But only 4 entries have access to the semi-finals
e210013 05.03.22	Yes, it's true. And above all, who goes ahead is always in advantage.
Jethro42 05.03.22	Keep the good work coming!
kalkwiese 05.03.22	1. SBB 2. Jono El Grande 3. Present 4. Il Giardino Onirico Since this doesn't have to be definitive ranking and I want SBB in the final round ...
Donchivo 05.03.22	Yeah, I Assumed already that voting early isn't clever from a tactical point of view... ;) BTW, I tried that Music lab thingy and it recommended/guessed 'waka waka' by Shakira as my favorite music, WTF!!!!
porcupinetheater 05.03.22	Wild! You’ve always struck me as more of a Waka Flocka bloke
bgillesp 05.03.22	I feel like voting tactically is unfair. But here is my final ranking. It is with a heavy heart I must vote myself second instead of first, but honestly, I cannot deny that Apofenia is my favorite. 1. Apofenia 2. Why 3. SBB 4. Present
bgillesp 05.03.22	Thanks for all the work e21! (and of course Jethro as well) And lol, @donchivo

Jethro42 05.03.22	Look at that! I'm doing e21's job. I will share his payroll, that's all! I'm glad you liked Apofenia so much, bgill. I've listened to it so often, and I'm never tired of it. Well balanced, lite symphonic prog with a bunch of heavy ambience. And you're welcome for all the work!
bgillesp 05.03.22	I'm glad SBB is making a comeback. I'm curious how Frogg Cafe would've done if it had made it
bgillesp 05.03.22	I added my votes, so I'll take some of e21's pay as well
e210013 05.03.22	Hey guys, you're both are stealing my gold. And even worse, you both are plagiarizing my text. I'm going to process you both. I'm going to call to Friday to represent me, since he's a lawyer. Lol.
Jethro42 05.03.22	But...but i'm only practicing....It doesn't count!
e210013 05.03.22	Ok. If that it's true, I think I can forgive you.
Jethro42 05.03.22	double post
Jethro42 05.03.22	@bgill, for you, ''practicing'' is the word.
Jethro42 05.03.22	And Frogg Cafe rule so much!...jazzy prog meets proggy jazz.
hansoloshotfirst 05.03.22	1. SBB 2. Mercury Tree 3. Jono El Grande 4. Novela
porcupinetheater 05.03.22	SBB one is weird for me, was really looking forward to it at the start, really dig their Pamiec record and the one with the hand on the cover, but that particular record did pre much nothing for me and I’m still stumped about it, but relistening hasn’t helped it grow any

Finally.
zakalwe 05.04.22	lol
bgillesp 05.04.22	Who all is left?
e210013 05.04.22	Good question bgillesp. By my counts, if I'm not wrong, is missing 5, MrSirLordGentleman, SharkTooth, Scheumke, bnelso55 and BillyBrill. But once BillyBrill never participated, are only missing the other 4. This service msut be paid as an extra, Jethro. This wasn't in our initial contract.
Jethro42 05.04.22	The business man, you, e21! It's included in the customer service. Those who are anxious about the tallies, you must know that I verify them meticulously. e21 is doing a flawless job so far. And NO you won't get a bonus for that!
e210013 05.04.22	Ok, I accept. You know, a businessman must defend his interests.
Jethro42 05.04.22	You don't miss one, my opportunist colleague!
porcupinetheater 05.04.22	“This service msut be paid as an extra, Jethro.” Completing the service before renegotiating the terms of the contract is a bold move, e, gotta respect
Jethro42 05.04.22	An advisor must get paid, now.
e210013 05.04.22	Yeah, you might be right, porc.
SharkTooth 05.05.22	I got my faves Il Giardino Onirico-Apofenia Circus-Movin' On Pekka Pohjola-Visitation SBB-Memento Z Banalnym Tryptykiem honestly these are not ordered because ranking things is hard, and my god I wish I could've seen Frogg Cafe here, it's easily one of the best records in this tourney but only got eliminated by my splitting hairs on a side note it was interesting to see my album lag so far behind but then quickly gain momentum to one of the top ones
Donchivo 05.05.22	RIP Axis.... I really wanted to see you in the semis!!
Mythodea 05.05.22	I would have loved it if Axis had passed to the semis, but I'm really glad they got here at least
Jethro42 05.05.22	After 18 participants have voted, Divaman, e210013, zakalwe, Jethro42, Friday13th, Donchivo, Mythodea, The Intruder, SlothcoreSam, Zig, porcupinetheater, Sabrutin, wham49, kalkwiese, bgillesp, hansoloshotfirst, TwigTW and SharkTooth and here we are again with a fresh result: Il Giardino Onirico - Apofenia = 32 Circus - Movin On = 27 Present - Barbaro = 22 SBB - Memento Z Banalnym Tryptykiem = 22 Jono El Grande - Melody Of A Muddled Mason = 17 Mercury Tree = 14 Pekka Pohjola - Visitation = 14 Axis (GR) - Axis = 13 Maquina! = 12 Novela - Sanctuary = 7
Jethro42 05.05.22	From the get go, I was sure Axis would have reached the semi-finals. So fun and laid back to listen to. @SharkTooth, I agree with you about Frogg Cafe. It's a band I want to run through their discog. And even if you reach the semi-finals, you have courage to put your entry in the 4th spot.
bgillesp 05.05.22	@Jethro, he said those weren’t ranked so I don’t know if that point allocation is necessarily what he wanted
SharkTooth 05.05.22	Yea I don't really know how I would rank those top 4, I'd say average the points out and distribute them equally among all of them
Jethro42 05.05.22	@bgillesp, what you see is what you get. Earlier, Shark said that Giardino Onirico is absolutely stellar. No surprising he put it in the first spot.
e210013 05.05.22	But Shark said: "Yea I don't really know how I would rank those top 4, I'd say average the points out and distribute them equally among all of them" And I don't know how is it possible. You must decide with him.
Jethro42 05.05.22	@Shark, is it your final ranking?
Jethro42 05.05.22	My apologies, I haven't read Shark very well.
Jethro42 05.05.22	@Shark, you must rank in spot 4, 3, 2, and 1 So I temporarily remove your vote.
Mythodea 05.05.22	@Jethro42 Yeah, I expected Axis to rank higher at first, but tbh, I'm just glad it resonated with a bunch of people, that's the whole concept of the tourne
Jethro42 05.05.22	@Myth, yes, you're right. It's kinda summer music. Road music, for sure.
kalkwiese 05.05.22	Yea idk I just never got much out of it. Would have loved to love it more
SharkTooth 05.05.22	okay so here's my best attempt at a ranking 1.Il Giardino Onirico-Apofenia 2.Pekka Pohjola-Visitation 3.Circus - Movin On 4.SBB - Memento Z Banalnym Tryptykiem
Jethro42 05.05.22	All right, Shark. I will compile them, if these are your wishes. I confess, it's hard to choose.
Jethro42 05.05.22	@kalk, I wish Polis would have passed to the demi-finals, thanks to their neat songs.
Jethro42 05.05.22	@Shark, your vote is included in the tally above.
MrSirLordGentleman 05.06.22	1. Pekka Pohjola 2. Circus 3. Il Giardino Onirico 4. The Mercury Tree
Scheumke 05.06.22	Eight excellent albums but there can only be four. My ranking after re-listening to all of them: 1. Il Giardino Onirico 2. Pekka Pohjola 3. SBB 4. Circus
Mythodea 05.06.22	Pekka is making a trong comeback, and tbh, even if I had not voted for it, I am actually happy, as it is a really well made album
Scheumke 05.06.22	Try to Remember remains my single favorite song of the tournament.
e210013 05.06.22	After 20 participants have voted, Divaman, e210013, zakalwe, Jethro42, Friday13th, Donchivo, Mythodea, The Intruder, SlothcoreSam, Zig, porcupinetheater, Sabrutin, wham49, kalkwiese, bgillesp, hansoloshotfirst, TwigTW, SharkTooth, MrSirLordGentleman and Scheumke, here we are with the last fresh result: Il Giardino Onirico - Apofenia = 38 Circus - Movin On = 31 SBB - Memento Z Banalnym Tryptykiem = 24 Present - Barbaro = 22 Pekka Pohjola - Visitation = 21 Jono El Grande - Melody Of A Muddled Mason = 17 Mercury Tree = 15 Axis (GR) - Axis = 13 Maquina! = 12 Novela - Sanctuary = 7 So, only lacks to vote bnelso55. Where are you bnelso? Your vote is important because if Il Giardino Onirico and Circus are already in the next phase, SBB, Present and Pekka Pohjola can join to them. However, there's only 2 more vagues. So, one of the three must fall here.
Divaman 05.06.22	Hmm, Pekka jumped up there into the competition, huh?
Mythodea 05.06.22	Pekka's second time to pull the Uno Reverse card
Friday13th 05.06.22	Yeah Pekka and SBB moved up fast
Jethro42 05.06.22	This is such a sprint. A risk of collision is high!
Divaman 05.06.22	I've been surprised by the lack of love for Novela.
Jethro42 05.06.22	Yeah, we were only three to vote to them. It's a well made album with great melodies. I guess vocals have something to do with it.
SharkTooth 05.06.22	personally I never got that into novella, it had cool ideas but some tracks were a drag to listen to also hot dang SBB is now 3rd maybe this will get people to check out their other records
Jethro42 05.06.22	Novela have from good to great tracks imo. Bravo for SBB, Shark!
Friday13th 05.06.22	bnelso could still determine whether SBB, Present, or Pekka make it to the semifinals.
Jethro42 05.06.22	He's under pressure! And he's missing a big game! I left him a message. He can't miss it all.
Jethro42 05.06.22	@e21; Thank you for your collaboration.
bgillesp 05.06.22	What a nail biter
Jethro42 05.06.22	I can't wait for bnelso's reply.
bnelso55 05.06.22	Ugh. This was so difficult. Here's my top 4 picks though: Il Giardino Onirico Circus Pekka Pohjola Jono El Grande
e210013 05.06.22	To conclude this phase, here am I again with the rest of it. After 21 participants have voted, Divaman, e210013, zakalwe, Jethro42, Friday13th, Donchivo, Mythodea, The Intruder, SlothcoreSam, Zig, porcupinetheater, Sabrutin, wham49, kalkwiese, bgillesp, hansoloshotfirst, TwigTW, SharkTooth, MrSirLordGentleman, Scheumke and bnelso55, here we are with the last result: Il Giardino Onirico - Apofenia = 42 Circus - Movin On = 34 SBB - Memento Z Banalnym Tryptykiem = 24 Pekka Pohjola - Visitation = 23 Present - Barbaro = 22 Jono El Grande - Melody Of A Muddled Mason = 18 Mercury Tree = 15 Axis (GR) - Axis = 13 Maquina! = 12 Novela - Sanctuary = 7 So, I think we have the 4 albums that pass to the next phase, Apofenia, Movin On, Memento Z Banalnym Tryptykiem and Visitation. In the last moment Visitation passed Barbaro. This was very emotional, indeed. However, we must wait for our host to confirm these final results. That the tourney proceeds.

bgillesp 05.06.22	Wow, Present dropped at the last second.
Jethro42 05.06.22	We have the four winners in Il Giardino Onirico, Circus, SBB and Pekka Pohjola which run through the semi-finals. Present (porc) was eliminated by a hair, by one single point. Bravo porc! I'm preparing our next step.
e210013 05.06.22	It seems we are doing the same Jethro. Lol. But, there's a difference. You officialized the results.
Jethro42 05.06.22	There are exactly the same results in e21's post and mine. Lol, e21!
zakalwe 05.06.22	Pleased Pekka pipped it from Present
porcupinetheater 05.06.22	Crimes have been committed, moment of silence
Jethro42 05.06.22	Oh!
bnelso55 05.07.22	Yeah, glad to see Pekka moving on.
Zig 05.07.22	There are two things that made this tourney: - impressive comebacks; - Diva's curse.
Mythodea 05.07.22	True, and perhaps sometimes the two were intertwined
Friday13th 05.07.22	lol!
Divaman 05.07.22	: (
Zig 05.07.22	you're a sputnikological legend, Diva !
Jethro42 05.07.22	That's because he visited a proglogist.
Divaman 05.07.22	Diva sad. : (
