A possible approach, using the power of functional programming, is
In[1]:= listone={{0,1},{1,w},{2,1+w},{3,1+2 w},{4,2},{5,2 w},{6,2+2 w},{7,2+w}}Out[1]= {{0,1},{1,w},{2,1+w},{3,1+2 w},{4,2},{5,2 w},{6,2+2 w},{7,2+w}}
In[2]:= listtwo={1,1+w,2+w,2 w,2,2+2 w,1+2 w,w}Out[2]= {1,1+w,2+w,2 w,2,2+2 w,1+2 w,w}
In[3]:= listthree=Transpose[listone][[2]]Out[3]= {1,w,1+w,1+2 w,2,2 w,2+2 w,2+w}
In[4]:= pos=Flatten[Position[listthree,#,{1}]&/@listtwo]Out[4]= {1,3,8,6,5,7,4,2}
In[5]:= listone[[pos[[#]]]][[1]]&/@Range[Length[pos]]Out[5]= {0,2,7,5,4,6,3,1}
