The final results for the PJ Survivor All-Stars game have been tabulated, and we have a winner! The championship round ended up in a blowout, showing the true dominance of the winner.
Before we get to the winner, let's recap the round-by-round results:
Round 1: Save You ELIMINATED
Round 2: Inside Job ELIMINATED
Round 3: Light Years ELIMINATED
Round 4: Footsteps ELIMINATED
Round 5: State of Love and Trust ELIMINATED
Round 6: Yellow Ledbetter ELIMINATED
Round 7: In My Tree ELIMINATED
Round 8: Given to Fly ELIMINATED
Round 9: Cordoruy ELIMINATED
That left Black and Rearviewmirror to battle for the title of the ultimate Pearl Jam Song Survivor. There were 224 votes casts in the final round.
The final tally was:
Black - 140 votes
Rearviewmirror - 84
The winner is Black!
On a final note, a huge thank you to everyone who participated in these threads. I truly enjoyed coming here (almost) every day and seeing what you all had to say about these songs. There were a few personal disappointments, and many pleasant surprises, along the way, but I can say it was always fun!
We started this game with the "Avocado Survivor" round on April 11th of this year; I didn't intend to go beyond that album, but it was so much fun - it garnered so many responses - that it was an easy decision to proceed through all the albums after that.
A few people have made suggestions for other topics that can be voted on in a Survivor-style game; I am contemplating those, but for at least the next month or so, I am done with the Survivor threads. After that, who knows? There are many possibilities.
On a final note, I'm going to be away from my computer most of the time after this weekend, so Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to everyone!

See These Bones
Butthead: It means that his friends are like turds and that they like suck.
Beavis: Heh heh. Oh yeah. Yeah! Get those spoons out of my face before I shove them up your butt!
Butthead: Huh huh.
I know this will piss a lot of people off, but Black is one of my least favorite PJ songs. It is just really over played through all these years.
A very cool little idea that ended up being an 8 month journey.
Now you need to start a "live show" survivor! GOGOGOGO
I'm sure as hell Rearviewmirror didn't win!
