I'd be interested in a solo Beatles poll more than a Beatles poll, which feels like it's been done to death.

solo would be pretty interesting...

I'd prefer Beatles and solo-Beatles be separate, but whatever's cool.

Has this order been changed, and if so could a mod please let me know? If not could a mod please take a look at the rogue Madonna poll?

I'm on an iPhone so I can't make a thread but could a mod please delete or lock this thread as it's out of order and is likely to spoil the real Madonna poll when we do it?

Madonna Tracks Poll

Thanks.

If no one's going to enforce this, why bother doing it?

Forget it, I wash my hands of this.

Karen D. Tregaskin, Monday, 4 July 2011 15:01 (1 year ago) Permalink

KDT, would you PLEASE let people assess the situation before you go off!?

Josef K-Doe (WmC), Monday, 4 July 2011 15:02 (1 year ago) Permalink

don't let the bastards grind you down Karen! mods need to step up tho. i've done what I can (sb)

Volvo Twilight (p-dog), Monday, 4 July 2011 15:03 (1 year ago) Permalink

Yeah, I very nearly sb'ed, which I have never done.

ah you changed your name but you are still so very Masonic Boom. FITE!

NO FITE

I'm not fighting, I'm just amused by the 'will you give us three minutes to react' post upthread.

o so apparently this is the thread where a handful of aspie rubes unilaterally decided what polls are (beatles - exciting!) and aren't (madonna - a girl!) allowed on ilx and ASSUMED that the rest of ilx (the ones w/ jobs, lives, etc) would know/care/heed what the handful decided. what a fucking wasteland. bye ilx!

Who's going to do the Madonna poll now?

Ismael Klata, Monday, 4 July 2011 15:14 (1 year ago) Permalink

30 minutes is not 3 minutes, BTW and it would be really great if you could for once just keep the "OMG Masonic Boom!" jeering out of yet another thread.

Karen D. Tregaskin, Monday, 4 July 2011 15:14 (1 year ago) Permalink

The Madonna poll is after the Prince one.

The idea of scheduling was so we're not all doing polls at the same time.

Also, that the person having put their name against an artist is sort of comitting themselves to the work involved.

I know you know this, so hey.

Do I do it often? I only just realized with the stolen artwork stuff that you're her! You were so low key for a while I thought Kate had flounced off permanently. :D

Mind you, I don't know who balls is either. Heh.

Can we please stick to coordinating the order and timing of ILM ballot polls in this thread.

Josef K-Doe (WmC), Monday, 4 July 2011 15:26 (1 year ago) Permalink

ILM balls polls?
okay fine ;)

for this derail we're all out of order and are likely to spoil the REAL purpose of this thread when we do it

what's an aspie rube?

Iago Galdston, Monday, 4 July 2011 19:07 (1 year ago) Permalink

The exact opposite of someone wanting to throw a spontaneous Madonna poll...

i thought it was some sort of asperger's related slur :(

Oh, it is.

Aspie
An aspie is one who has Asperger's Syndrome, which is believed to be part of the autism spectrum. Aspies, while being quite gifted verbally, have social, emotional, and sensory integration difficulties, among others. Aspie is an affectionate term, and is not meant as a put down.
My son is an aspie, so he's not so great at making idle chit chat at parties, or even at being in crowds, but he can get us home from anywhere. He says he just consults the map in his brain.

That's the best balls has got? Practically a compliment!

Iago Galdston, Tuesday, 5 July 2011 00:13 (1 year ago) Permalink

So what's the 'rube' bit about then?

Mark G, Tuesday, 5 July 2011 00:13 (1 year ago) Permalink

1. pet shop boys - billy dods (results coming later today)
2. Beatles - Mark G (voting in progress)

Voting in progress on your Beatles poll? i didn't see that! better go find it...

Iago Galdston, Tuesday, 5 July 2011 00:18 (1 year ago) Permalink

thanks

I feel bad for balls. Seemed legitimately unaware of this thread as well as whether it was an actual authority over people being allowed to start a ballot poll. He didn't take Karen seriously off the bat and his thread gets locked pretty quick. Sucks if he truly was innocently trying to start the ballot for fun. Just giving the guy(?) a little sympathy is all. :)

Wacky Way Lounge (Evan), Tuesday, 5 July 2011 06:09 (1 year ago) Permalink

yeah, righto.

Mark G, Tuesday, 5 July 2011 06:42 (1 year ago) Permalink

He didn't seem legitimately unaware. Since the opening posts of the locked madonna poll thread it seemed pretty clear he didn't give a fuck and that he was only doing it to mock this sort of polls (?) Also he reposted the thread twice or thrice after it got locked but they got deleted by an admin.

Wtf would anyone do that for? That's a bit sad.

Ismael Klata, Tuesday, 5 July 2011 07:55 (1 year ago) Permalink

With Moka on that this was totally a trolling operation.

what? this did not "seem pretty clear" to me at all. balls started an 80s ballot poll years ago (tho infamously never posted the results), he's not mocking them.
