Metallica wouldn't be number one even if there was no other music for comparison.

So a=b

I think this part of the proof was first demonstrated by Hetfield & Trujillo 1994. Stunning. �'�

Seriously I do so much maths every bloody day I'm not even funny making jokes about it.

Metallica should be #2 anyway, because Slayer is better.

So actually Metallica are The Beatles and The Beatles are Metallica, so you need to swap them around on the top-ranked band list, and then Metallica are #1

Oh, guys, I think I figured out what's wrong. You see, Metallica's rank score is calculated correctly, but the system seems to have erroneously determined that 414642 (The Beatles' rank score) is somehow greater than 43090 (Metallica's rank score), when in fact the truth is precisely the opposite. Here's a proof:

Let a=371553
Let b=371553
So a=b
Then a^2-ab=a^2-b^2 (Substitution property)
Then a(a-b)=(a+b)(a-b)
Then a=a+b (Divide both sides by a-b)
Then 0=b (Subtract a from both sides)
Then 0=371553
Then 43090=414643 (Add 43090 to both sides)
Then 43090-414642=1 (Subtract 414642 from both sides)
So 43090-414642>0
Therefore, 43090>414642

QED

Pff. I've found the mistake. b=1, not 371553.

Well done AliMetallica, with only one post you've rendered the whole outcome of the Best Ever User Tournament obsolete.

There's no need for us to fight about this. Let's agree to call it a 28 way tie. Then as a tie breaker, let's just list the bands by total rank score of all the albums. That put's Metallica at, let's see, doing the arithmetic....

#28.

Well, I tried.

You're dividing by zero there. Still, it's Metallica, so I don't see why that should be a problem in this specific case.
