Probably the difference is only Dream Theater cared enough about this tournament to petition their fanbase for votes. I, for one, had never heard of the thing until now. |
No, actually, both bands were notifying their fan bases daily about it - in fact, on one particular day Metallica posted twice about it, one time just a little over an hour after the other. But Dream Theater's vote tally steadily climbed while Metallica's would jump a little every time they posted, and then stop climbing.
