    Keep missing these votes. In fairness,. I was away for a little bit and I much prefer using the desktop version of Boards! I see most of my nominations so far have not been voted as over-rated. Damn!

    Jesus Christ - how is Ironic losing to Meat Loaf here? What is wrong with you people?!


    How that song still gets so much airtime I have no idea. Stupid lyrics and a whiny nasal American accent. What's to like?


    Can I vote Ironic for all four please?

    Yeah Meatloaf is just ****. Ironic is truly overrated.

    Again, I lost the timestamps from yesterday so I only counted until the votes I could tell were on time, if I had of counted all the votes it wouldn't have made any difference to the results but would affect the conceded votes for future rounds.

    Is there anyway to find timestamps for posts from previous days? Little things like this make running games here sh1t

    Not that I know of. I agree it's very annoying.

    Edit: I searched online Seems like an easy fix, but it's a background settings things, not something that users can display So, we wait for the staff to get around to it among a (presumably) huge list

    I finally got to vote on one of my nominations - U2's The Sweetest Thing! On the second match, I can't stand Hello and I quite like Wonderwall, but I believe it is more over-rated than the former which is not rated at all!

    @Kolido The time stamp issue is still a work in progress, I think, according to this.
