Best Classic Album Tournament: Qualifier

[Only348]

Okay, I know that many different tournaments have been made, but here's mine: Best Classic Album! This will take 128 classic albums this community considers the best, and pit them against each other! There are going to be several different rounds here, and I will tell you how they will work:

Qualifier Round

First, you will post 3 bands with albums you consider classic and you like. Do not post the names of the album(s). We will cross that bridge when we get there. After a band has been nominated 10 times, it will get on the list. After 130 bands get on the list, Pre-Preliminaries start.

Pre-Preliminaries

As the name implies, this is before the preliminaries. I will list the discographies of each band/artist nominated, and then you will vote on which albums by each band you consider classic. After an album is considered classic by 10 people, that album is on the roster for the tournament! Once all 130 bands have unanimously classic albums, then the Preliminaries start.

Preliminaries

Now, since there are 130 extra albums, 2 must be eliminated. You will vote on which albums you like the least, post up to 10 of them. Once two albums have been nominated 10 times, the actual tournament starts!

The Actual Tournament

Each round will have one album against another. You will vote on which album you prefer, and by the end of every 3 days, the album with the most votes wins! If a tie arises, the first album to get one more vote is the winner. This will continue until one album remains!

Voting

To vote, simply post the name of the band/album you are voting for. I will keep the scores.

Rules
1. The band must have over 1 album.
2. You may NOT nominate a band more than once.
3. Only 3 band nominations, 1 vote for what album to use, 10 votes for album you want out, and 1 vote for the band you want to win. Remember: First part applies to qualifier, second applies to pre-preliminaries, third to preliminaries, and fourth to tournament.
4. NO CHEATING!!!!

So, without further ado...

List your bands.
