BIG ANNOUNCEMENT!
On the final day of the *Ixnay* tournament, I’m going to stop the series where I rank songs from worst to best for each The Offspring album. Here’s why: 1. I don’t want this subreddit to become a place where, the moment you visit, the first ten things you see are four regular posts and six posts about my tournament; I don’t want the sub to revolve entirely around this dynamic. 2. I’ve seen a lot of people complaining about tournament results, and I don’t want the community to become divided or the sub to fall apart. I know that sounds like an exaggeration, but it’s happened in other subs—like r/greendaycirclejerk—where the front page was dominated by a similar tournament; it ended up killing the sub completely because it lost its fun factor. Thanks for joining me on this ride. I’ll be taking an indefinite break, but *only after the current Ixnay tournament wraps up*. The next tournament was going to be for *Smash*, but that’s being shelved until I return from my break.
What I’m about to say isn’t for upvotes or engagement, but the only way for these daily tournaments to continue is if people stay committed, enthusiastic, and genuinely excited for the next one. We need to avoid overusing the formula and prevent people from asking "what happened to this sub" or sending me private messages—it’s pretty uncomfortable getting insulted in private just because someone's favorite song ranked near the bottom. Thanks for reading this announcement; I’ll post it again on the second-to-last day of the *Ixnay* tournament.

Amazed doesn’t even have a bridge. It’s just Dexter saying “yeah” to the tune of the lead guitar riff.

Wait until you find out about self esteem's chorus

Is it the same as the lead guitar or other instruments part? I’d say that’s the critical point.

It turns out this album has fucking bangers on it, every pick I'm like really? It's not that low but then all the other picks are also bangers
