Rules are the same as the Metal Game, you vote 2+ and 2- anyway you see fit, one vote a day. Each band starts with 10 points.
Some of these bands were also in the Metal Game, but belong here.

+2 Rush
-2 Poison
Having to eventually decide between Rush, Lizzy and Skynyrd's gonna hurt me. I see a slew of glam bands I'll take out first though, so they'll take all my negative votes for now.
Enshin's prediction: Led Zeppelin will be crowned the Ultimate Hard Rock Band.
EDIT: I assume Ross will be in charge of counting votes?

we should probably have a playoff style bracket instead of this +2 -2 stuff, cause otherwise it takes forever. just an idea. throwing it out there.

Come on guys, what's with all the Rush hate so far? Surely there are worse bands on the list than Rush? But eh, to each his own.

-2 Poison

I don't think a Playoff would work. I can't really think of how to do it and there's always that 'oh you shouldn't have put those bands against each other' thing.

* Cinderella [10]

+2 Guns N' Roses
-2 AC/DC
Since this is my first entry into this competition and it is very early on (last one took forever). I have some requests that hopefully can be considered.
1) Can we remove Bon Jovi? Please?
2) Can we add the following Bands.. they can start with a little hurt... like 7 points each as latecomers?
* The Offspring
* Metallica (Fuck them... but they aren't metal anymore)
* Red Hot Chili Peppers
* Rage Against the Machine
* Stone Temple Pilots
* Foo Fighters
* Fuel
* Nirvana
* Green Day
The list as it stands has a lot of 80s hair in it, this would add some 90s grunge. I know that some of these fall into an Alternative title, but that is just a subcategory of Hard Rock.

I've noticed everyone subtracts two from a band they don't like. (for example, -2 Rush). But we're allowed to give one point to two different points, so are we allowed to subtract one point from two different bands as well?
Well until I know the official answer, here's my vote:
+1 Queen
+1 Nirvana
-2 Lynyrd Skynyrd

you can only vote once a day. and you can spread those points out however you want
so if you want +1 random band +1 random -1 random -1 random. you can
