Welcome to my second V2W! This V2W is based on the inductees of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, located in Cleveland, Ohio.
There are a total amount of 180 contestants in this V2W. There will be 5 matches a day because of the high amount of contestants. Matches will be updated everyday somewhere between 9PM to 10PM EST.
EDIT: Round 1 is finished, Round 2 has a total of 90 contestants. Updates will be at the same time, but there will be 3 matches a day now.

RULES (please read):
Please include all matches in your post - it gets confusing if you leave a match out.
Dont overly praise or criticize a contestant, or your vote will be revoked. Comments like Im not a big fan of this band/musician or I like this band/musician more than the other are fine.
Youre allowed to change your vote anytime during a match.
And any other normal V2W rules apply too, really.
