When will these results be rolled out? Dont wish to step on anyones toes with the poll im doing and i believe theres an indie poll too

Algerian Goalkeeper, Wednesday, 1 August 2012 21:20 (eleven years ago) link

what's this indie poll?

Legendary General Cypher Raige (Gukbe), Wednesday, 1 August 2012 21:23 (eleven years ago) link

whoa whole lotta polls will start counting.

Moka, Wednesday, 1 August 2012 21:25 (eleven years ago) link

i just read up a bit and it seems theres problems? sorry to hassle you.

gukbe i was informed there's an indie singles poll or something? i didn't know about it until i had decided to run my own poll (no its not an exclusively metal poll honest!)

Anyway i havent noticed a thread for it but i hadnt really been following ilm lately

Algerian Goalkeeper, Wednesday, 1 August 2012 21:27 (eleven years ago) link

i think there's a 90s electronic poll too? So we're last in the queue so im hoping to work out when we can start voting. Hopefully before xmas haha

Algerian Goalkeeper, Wednesday, 1 August 2012 21:28 (eleven years ago) link

Quick question:

Ranked ballots get 50 points 1st place and 1 vote 50th place, right?

I'm going to do a simple count. Only points per song and number of first place votes. Wont put the names of the voters next to each track.

Moka, Wednesday, 1 August 2012 21:37 (eleven years ago) link

Only unranked ballot is citizen smith's. What do I do about that one?

Moka, Wednesday, 1 August 2012 22:00 (eleven years ago) link

Give every song 25 points

"Ranked ballots get 50 points 1st place and 1 vote 50th place, right?"

I agree. Don't know about the others..

dan138zig (Durrr Durrr Durrrrrr), Wednesday, 1 August 2012 22:46 (eleven years ago) link

Only 5 ballots so far. This takes more time than I thought. Usually I start placing the numbers as the ballots get in the mail. Doing it all at once is exhausting.

I quit.

Moka, Thursday, 2 August 2012 02:50 (eleven years ago) link

just kidding. Hopefully I'll get final results by next week. Right now the top 10 is looking pretty weird safe for the first place which I'm sure will remain there.

Moka, Thursday, 2 August 2012 02:51 (eleven years ago) link

hi moka, can I resend my ballot?

dan138zig (Durrr Durrr Durrrrrr), Thursday, 2 August 2012 02:52 (eleven years ago) link

only if i havent counted it yet.

So far I've counted:

Mine, Lamp, Tuomas and some guys names Josiah and Matt (ilm alias wasnt provided).

Is your name Josiah or Matt?

Moka, Thursday, 2 August 2012 02:59 (eleven years ago) link

also counted EDB and some Thomas cracklebox right now.

Moka, Thursday, 2 August 2012 03:47 (eleven years ago) link

also late did you send me your own ballot in therE?

Moka, Thursday, 2 August 2012 03:47 (eleven years ago) link

my name is aditya. if it's not a hassle i'd like to resend it. there are two crucial omissions, i'm afraid.

dan138zig (Durrr Durrr Durrrrrr), Thursday, 2 August 2012 04:44 (eleven years ago) link

durr: I found it. It seems like your ballot was the last one that late received so you're fine if you send me one in the next couple of days. My email is above.

Moka, Thursday, 2 August 2012 04:45 (eleven years ago) link

Moka
Some guy named Josiah

Some guy named Matt

Aight. Anyone who didn't send a ballot they still have a until next week to send one and become part of the history of ILM.

Moka, Thursday, 2 August 2012 05:42 (eleven years ago) link

Moka - there was one poster who did their ballot in this thread (and probably didn't e-mail it):

Frank O'Fiall (Nasty, Brutish & Short), Thursday, 2 August 2012 09:56 (eleven years ago) link

Chewshabadoo, Thursday, 2 August 2012 09:56 (eleven years ago) link

Thanking u Moka

Commiserating 4 U Late Great

EDB, Thursday, 2 August 2012 10:02 (eleven years ago) link

yeah, and thanks for all the efforts, late great. I appreciate it.

dan138zig (Durrr Durrr Durrrrrr), Thursday, 2 August 2012 11:49 (eleven years ago) link

The person called Matt is possibly me.

Matt DC, Thursday, 2 August 2012 11:58 (eleven years ago) link

Or possibly me...too many folks named Matt around here.

chewy, Thursday, 2 August 2012 12:50 (eleven years ago) link

The person named Josiah is most definitely me.

Josiah Alan, Thursday, 2 August 2012 12:52 (eleven years ago) link

^ cocky

¥╡*ٍ*╞¥ (sic), Thursday, 2 August 2012 13:34 (eleven years ago) link

If there's another Josiah on here I'll Paypal him a dollar.

Josiah Alan, Thursday, 2 August 2012 13:56 (eleven years ago) link

Psyched for the countdown on this, thanks to Moka for stepping in to help.
TLG I'm sorry to hear that things have been rough for you and hope they continue to come more under control again. I'm aware these kind of internet commiserations can seem a bit perfunctory/unhelpful, but I do know how easily and suddenly this kind of shit can come along and mess things up, so sending good vibes your way.

The Rise of Owl-Bass (Mr Andy M), Thursday, 2 August 2012 15:16 (eleven years ago) link

well i do have a job interview in two hours, will be sure to point out my biggest professional shortcoming is tendency to overcommit

Ok that one wasn't actually in the polls that late sent me. Including it. Thanks!

Who too many Matts in here. The mate I'm talking about made a last minute change for 47 switching untold - dante for untold - sweat. Ring a bell?

Moka, Thursday, 2 August 2012 16:41 (eleven years ago) link

Late, three things:

1. good luck in the interview.
2. do you want to roll out the results after I have the numbers ready?
3. did you send your own ballot?

Moka, Thursday, 2 August 2012 16:42 (eleven years ago) link

1. thanks

2. you go ahead, i'm too busy

3. no but maybe this afternoon

the late great, Thursday, 2 August 2012 16:43 (eleven years ago) link

the late great, Thursday, 2 August 2012 16:43 (eleven years ago) link

Moka

Dante > Sweat, by the way.

EDB, Thursday, 2 August 2012 18:25 (eleven years ago) link

uh huh

the late great, Thursday, 2 August 2012 18:26 (eleven years ago) link

i agree but at the time i thought we could only vote for what was on the ballot so i was "correcting a mistake"

JUST FOLLOWING THE RULES OFFICER

lick of the rim (Matt P), Thursday, 2 August 2012 18:28 (eleven years ago) link

if you need help in rolling out the results please let me know

dan138zig (Durrr Durrr Durrrrrr), Thursday, 2 August 2012 22:37 (eleven years ago) link

Phew, counting has been slower than usual as I havent been around home this weekend. 15 ballots so far which means only 1/3 of the results are ready. Here's who I've got (as a reminder to myself).

Moka
Josiah
lamp
Matt P
Tuomas
EDB
cracklebox
Nasty, Brutish & Short
jibe
Tim F
Andy
mind taker
etc/Ess Kay
Paul (Scifisoul)
display name: or something

Moka, Monday, 6 August 2012 18:56 (eleven years ago) link

imma send one too

the late great, Monday, 6 August 2012 19:02 (eleven years ago) link

thx all for taking over

interested to see spreadsheets

the late great, Monday, 6 August 2012 19:02 (eleven years ago) link

Well right now tracks everything below 70 points is a clusterfuck of tie-ins. I expect the numbers to become more separate as the ballots get included. Results for place 66th onwards are looking good with only five ties in there. Depending on how the numbers spread out we'll see in which place it'd be best to start the poll.

Moka, Monday, 6 August 2012 19:24 (eleven years ago) link

K five more ballots to the list:

tpp
Matt chewshabadoo
Gavin, Leeds
Andrew M
conestelle

That leaves it at 20 ballots so far so were halfway there. I want to notice that of those 1110 nom tracks 537 havent received a single vote so far.
