[QUOTE="switch3flip, post: 184389, member: 2036"] I think it's fair there is a new poll. Xenon shouldn't have been included in the first place. It's xenon against older pins, and it became a matter of divide and conquer. If you make a poll and put one EM pin against a bunch of evenly rated DMD's, there's a fair chance the EM would win because the EM lovers would only have one pin to vote on and the DMD lovers votes would spread out among the DMD's. Likewise if you took the crappiest DMD against a bunch of excellent EM's the DMD would win. I think the poll is STILL a bit unfair, I think most people who voted fireball would rather have paragon over xenon, and most paragon voters would rather have fireball over xenon. Xenon looks more "modern" (wow a tube ramp!) than the rest and stands out more and seems more appealing to people who don't know these pins, and the ones who do are divided among the rest of the pins. (Generally speaking. I'm sure there's nostalgic xenon lovers out there as well, just not that many.) I could have voted for a bunch of those pins over xenon, and there's not much between paragon and fireball in my opinion, but hey it seems were probably getting all top three now so it's all good, maybe we're just voting for the order they are released.
