    I think it can only display 20 thumbnails. I don’t see @rummy or @PJ_Soul thumbnails among the more astute voters either. 
    Astute observation.
    I'm pretty sure that the individuals with the lower 10c numbers get put in the "displayed 20." 
    Mine's pretty high.
    I think it shows the order of when you voted and after 20 there's isn't room anymore. Mine is in there around the time I voted.
    It's a hopeless situation...

    If you click on each voters thumbnails and check their "joined" date, you'll see them get more and more recent as you go down the line. Also, I voted quite late in this round (tough choice!) and I am already off the board (joined in 2012, I think).

  • When the Levee Breaks
    I actually listened to Zeppelin IV the other day with headphones for the first time in years and man, Stairway really is a masterpiece. It's been a while since I actually sat and really listened to it. Levee is actually my favorite song on the album...but the world could live without it (though I'd hate to lose "Rhyming and Stealing" by the Beasties). The world needs Stairway To Heaven.

    Sad to see, but hey...if it is what people like most I get it.  For sure a great song...but it just doesn't bring it for me these days like Levee.

    Stairway was down by 2 early yesterday and now up by 2. Probably going to stay about that at this point. I have no complaints. It's a great song for the masses while Levee is an unheralded great song for the music connoisseur who enjoys the road less traveled :wink:
    It's a hopeless situation...

    Well okay, guess I'll pretend that I'm just happy my eyes are still in working order. :)

    I find this video incredibly frustrating, lol. They stop the song WAY too frequently to talk for way too long. I do like reaction vids sometimes, and these guys are very enthusiastic which I appreciate, but fuck, way too many pauses to the song. Also, they seem to not realize they are in fact listening to the greatest drummer to ever walk the Earth, lol. They do like the drumming, but I wish I could explain to them what they are actually listening to, lol.

    Be prepared for some skipping all over side 2. Give it a good Spin Clean and work with it a bit, and it should sound all right, though. I hope. Unless you got a UK pressing. Those are pristine. I've been going with those on the reissues. The US Houses of the Holy remaster is a glorified frisbee.

    Hope there are a flood of votes, late.  (Even if they go to Stairway.  These are fun.)

    I agree, they’d probably absorb more of the song by pausing it less but what ya gonna do? Lol. They have some reaction videos to Black Sabbath and Metallica that are pretty funny/entertaining.

    A lot of the older (my generation :lol: ) artist will block the video if they don't pause it cause of copyright - but I've seen reaction videos with WAY less interruptions. And actually play the whole song.  It did get annoying.

    These guys are pretty good - it's kinda cool that they are listening to genres that are not their thing and seeing quality in them. Some of the people that do this are just assholes, but these guys LOVED the black unplugged video, so I have seen them before (and they didn't pause it, except to briefly comment on, mostly EV's vocals & passion). 

    I fall down a rabbit hole every so often on these reaction vids.

    People  comment when they say something wrong or don't realize why something is amazing - like the drummer. I stay away from comment sections on most youtube stuff, I will never understand why someone who hates a band is constantly watching and trashing their videos. Must be a millenial attention thing. 

     I'm sure someone schooled them on Bonham in the comments.
