I'm writing this regardless if Tokio Hotel wins or not.
So, yet again there is an uproar sprinkled with conspiracy during 2013's Music March Madness. A battle of the bands hosted online by MTV each year.
Last year, there was a Cinderella story when German rock band Tokio Hotel took home the prize. Now it's a potiental second year running, and here the Fan Base of the band is yet again up against other bands, and their newest named rivals Ed Sheeran fans or "Sheerios" as they so proudly call themselves.
As an Alien I have to say what happened Sunday night with the votes kind of wasn't fair. To both sides actually. On the Aliens side, they have been put against the ropes. Where as for the Sheerios they won't know what a fair game is...due to whomever is cheating for them. I AM NOT SAYING THE SHEERIOS ARE CHEATING....I'm only guessing a third party was involved that didn't want Tokio Hotel to win...
Continuing...
So it's Monday and apparently MTV has restarted the polls, to allow more fair voting. Not even ten hours in, the Sheerian fans are sky rocketing towards 100 % where as the Aliens hang on by the thread. As the discussion below continues on in a live feed format, there are more complaints of cheating, and well the Lack of effort MTV put into fixing the problem.
Also there is the theory that, if Tokio Hotel is voted fore more than once, their votes are going down and Ed's are going up?
Would MTV penalize the Alien Fan Base for something a faceless nameless band of cheaters have started? Or has the system been hacked once again?
Why is it that even if the other band is in the lead, the band below looses votes? That shouldn't be a factor in my opinion. I mean if one band is meant to loose, then my goodness let them have the votes that were counted!
So with that said, I will not be returning to Music March Madness in 2014. It's a poorly run contest now that MTV has been more about the drama, than the actual musical influence that inspires leagues of dedicated fans to flock to just to show their support.
Frankly it was only around this time that I really paid any attention to Mtv...I'm no one special, and they are a billion dollar figure head. But when you go from becoming a milestone for artists worldwide...to glorifying things like Teenage Pregnancy...It's rather ridiculous.
But MTV will be here forever. Unfortunately. If my band somehow pulls through and wins...I don't want to be bothered with this competition any longer. Even if we do loose I don't want to be bothered with this competition. I'm sure the lame ass trolls of the internet would be tempted to comment on what I have to say, basically calling me a "Jealous sore looser."
In retrospect, I'm not, nor have I ever been. Further more there is a likely-hood that I NEVER WILL BE JEALOUS.
With that said.
Aliens-I love you
Echelon- I love you
Sheerios- I only respect those who weren't fucking pricks to me on the discusions :)
