Hi Guys,

Here are the links to help get two bands into the Quarter finals on Our Stage.

Ultimatum is number 10 out of 394 songs in the metal category. With one day to go, they have a chance at the quarter finals.

I registered, but how do you vote?

I think you actually have to listen to the tracks and say which you like better. I don't know much about that site. Matt at Retroactive is really excited about this though, so I hope his two bands do well.

Register and account and then "judge".

You basically judge music, so you'd have to have a few minutes to listen to the songs. Ultimatum is competing in the METAL category, along with TITANIC.

I think playing the song/video also helps move it up the charts.

Well, after you click 'Judge', it looks like you have to judge whatever pops up on the screen. You can't search for Ultimatum or anyone else and judge it. They have it set up to randomize the bands.

That sucks!

Here's what the FAQ says:

"Why can’t I choose the artist I want to judge ?
If one could choose the artist to be judged then one could repeatedly judge that artist higher and higher in the rankings and unfairly influence the outcome. We believe it's critically important that the OurStage rankings reflect the true wisdom of the community by being free of gaming. It is one of the most unique things about our site differentiating us from the scores of other sites that are unable to separate quality from the noise. So on OurStage the artists in each channel are presented at random - to prevent gaming, and to give every artist a fair shot to be compared to every other artist. We know it's different and we know it asks more of our community to do it this way but we believe the results are worth it. Thank you for being a part of our unique community."

I had some trouble as well....finally got it to work though...I THINK.
