DAY 20: Eliminating “every” Non-Best Musical winner until there’s only one left!

Sorry I’m a little late today. Tbh, I was watching drag race and lost track of time.

PHASE 3: Eliminate 2 shows a day until we have our FINAL 3.

—————————————————————

Again, we are voting on the SHOW itself, not necessarily a specific performance. Top upvoted comments decide. Upvote the comment with the show you want OUT. Downvote the comment with the show you want to SAVE.

Full game breakdown and frequently asked questions can be found here- https://www.reddit.com/r/Broadway/s/YSIDpPQZgR

—————————————————————

The rules are quite simple:

  • RULE #1: ONE show title per comment and please include WHY. There’s no way to tally which shows the upvotes on your comment go towards if there’s multiple titles. Votes are tallied by number of upvotes on the top 3 COMMENTS containing a single show title, not on the replies/duplicate comments.

  • RULE #2: Do not comment the name of your fave show on the list. That is the opposite of how to play.

  • RULE #3: Keep the discussion civil. Please defend your fave with your whole heart. Make your argument for why your show of choice should be gone. Just don’t be condescending or unkind. General reddiquette and r/Broadway rules apply. This is a game! Let’s have FUN.

  • RULE #3.5: Everybody has to be nice to me. I’m doing this in my spare time for fun. PLEASE feel free to correct any misinformation you may catch! Incorrect year? Something out of order? Let me know! I’m always open to constructive criticism, just keep it cute.

  • RULE #4: Be objective. There is definitely going to be some recency bias, but consider the long term impression the show has made too.

  • RULE #5: Always read the body of the post. Results from the previous day’s votes will be listed, and updates will be posted to give any heads up you may need for upcoming phases.
