I went through each line up and literally counted how many acts on each I like. Whoever had more acts, got the vote
Kanye Surfer - This was tied on first count, but then I noticed the bottom of the poster. So Sunday Service snuck in and pushed it over in Kanye's favour.
Maddog - This actually surprised me. At first glance I thought this would go to Tristan, since I prefer his headliners and subs, but apparently Maddog's lineup just has more for me in the undercard. (side note: Madlib is spelled super wrong on your poster Maddog)
Sub - Another surprise for me for the same reason. Of the headliners I like, I prefer Portishead and Massive Attack over Madonna and Odd Future (would love to see all 4 though, just prefer the combo of the former) but DMS' undercard has more for me.
Cap - Yes, I actually did this count, and yes, Cap had more acts I'd want to see (by quite a bit actually). Which makes sense since I know we have a lot of crossover in our tastes. However, I do appreciate you taking Head Automatica Sang.
But just for the record Prince > Radiohead. No contest.
Twenty votes so far. One is very close and three are kinda sweeping BUT nothing is won nor lost. Let's keep it going! I really like the format of public head to head voting tbh so far.

lol Pablo told me about the Madlib/Jaylib thing, not even sure how I ended up putting that
Fwiw I had more fun at Afrojack '12 than Calvin '14
I thought you weren't at Calvin at all..
Edit: that might have been FPSF '13 where I got stuck at Calvin and couldn't go to Postal Service cuz my phone died. It was better than I expected, tbf.
All I've got so far is like all of these should have advanced.
I will say, from an outsiders perspective (and ref) I'm not a big fan of putting a group in a lower tier from the get-go, based on a poll. I didn't see a problem with it before, but now that we're here... Just knowing the amount of effort that goes into these things, I'd be pretty down if I was put into a category where I'm kind of doomed from the start. I'd rather just lose and be done with it. Its a shame powers of 2 go from 16 to 32. Fuckin math
Edit to explain my voting 'cause that's apparently what we're doing here:
I assigned point values based on who I would be excited to see and where they fall in a lineup, so if you've got higher billed artists I'd be excited for then they're worth more points than lower billed artists. It's not a great system but it's what I used. (I ranked the lineups before looking at the match ups.)
Silver Surfer beat Danbob 50 to 27. Jimma beat DE 58 to 38 Pablo beat DMS 51 to 34 Sang beat Cap 72 to 19
People who’d go to Pablo’s over mine, you just gonna skip Sunday?
Your lineup has a lot of stuff I don't know. So it's like a real Coachella lineup. In my points system he only beat you by 9 acts that I'd see, that's only 3 a day. So it's not as big of a gap as it seems.
