Where is @n00b100 I am super exicted to hear his response....I have a feeling he'll put in a good word for 12/6!!

My feelings are that I'm not too surprised (other than I figured 12/30 would be higher than 5th).

I get 12/6 being 2nd due to its second set, which is my pick for greatest set of all time. I don't really agree with @Sprachtor (quelle surprise) that 11/22 would be a safer pick for #1 than 11/17; quite frankly, I feel kinda dumb I didn't predict 11/17 would be #1 from the start. The arguments against 11/17 are covered by @J_D_G, so I'll leave that aside.

11/22/97 is my favorite show of all time, mainly because it is *such* a prototypical show. Me and @Sprachtor (again) dispute its greatness, because he feels that it's just a *consistent* show without anything being truly great. My feeling is that its consistency is *exactly* why it's my pick for the best show ever - we can all rattle off plenty of shows with 1-2 great jams and nothing else to speak on, but a show that is at least pretty good *all the way through both sets* (and extremely good w/r/t the Halley's and maybe the Hood) does not just float on down the pike every day. It's the same reason why I love 12/11/99 so much.

Anyway, this was a clear labor of love from the .net team, and to everyone that participated, I say a) kudos, and b) I'm still mad 12/29's not on the master list.
