I'm not overly fond of Steuart, but if his input is what it took to complete this cd, more power to him. There were several surprise vote offs, songs I thought would stick around a little longer, but that just shows there is something for everyone on LROOE. Emotions ran high as we all had different opinions and reasons for the way we voted and many of us went back and forth on our choices, but in the end, all the songs were winners, no matter which one was the lost song still standing. I'm looking forward to playing again in a few months to see if our feelings have changed. Thanks for the great game everyone.

I am in complete agreement. I figure we'll play the game again in several months - perhaps the summer or so - we'll see what we feel like!

Congratulations Waiting in the Weeds. Although, it wasn't my choice to win the game, it is, in fact, an absolutely wonderful, gorgeous song. This was a fun, interesting and close game. I think there were some surprises for everyone, and there were only a very few rounds where a majority of the voters agreed. I agree that it will be interesting to compare when we play again.

I haven't had a chance to comment on the result until now. While I voted for 'How Long' to win, I have to be fair and say that WITW was indeed a worthy winner of a hard fought battle. Both songs are excellent, and I particularly love the harmonies and the lyrics of WITW! So well done to it. It will be interesting when we play this game again what the result will be. I think there was a lot more tactical voting (and I'm as guilty of the crime as anyone else) in this survivor than in any of the other games we've played. Will that happen again? No doubt we'll find out!

Well done, Soda and Dreamer for facilitating a nailbiting game!

Well done, bdr!

Thank You DonFan. Please remember it was me who quoted you first, I also believe you shared your feelings and thoughts in a most eloquent way.

I think I can tell you which song will win once the game is played once again. "How Long" lost because of a tiebreaker. I am willing to bet with that being known "Waiting in the Weeds" will get more votes early on to avoid that from happening again. Thing is this is a game and how many times have we all said if I knew this was going to happen I would have played that differently?

I do agree with you all, it will be intresting the next time around.

Unless those early votes are counteracted by early votes for How Long for the same reason...
