groovypanda, Tuesday, 9 February 2016 11:22 (eight years ago) link

Oh, wait, is that a different poll?

groovypanda, Tuesday, 9 February 2016 11:23 (eight years ago) link

Cosmic Slop, Tuesday, 9 February 2016 11:26 (eight years ago) link

is Gukbe, gr8080 or someone else on the top of that list ready to go? i know some dude could do Hendrix in February. if anything i can do Bauhaus at anytime now.

Bee OK, Tuesday, 9 February 2016 14:56 (eight years ago) link

someone oughta help frobisher out with the Excel spreadsheet so those results can roll out

Οὖτις, Tuesday, 9 February 2016 16:35 (eight years ago) link

Cosmic Slop, Tuesday, 9 February 2016 16:41 (eight years ago) link

I've got the spreadsheet and a bit of time, I'm happy to do the tabulating and pass the results on.

thinking specifically of Oscar-brand health insurance and its unpleasant NYC subway ads:

oops wrong thread

the thirteenth floorior (Doctor Casino), Tuesday, 9 February 2016 18:12 (eight years ago) link

... OR IS IT?

La Lechazunga (Leee), Tuesday, 9 February 2016 20:08 (eight years ago) link

uh, don't want to piss anyone off and I'm sorry about how my poll fell off the face of the earth, but I finally got the results tallied so I'm doing the Extreme Metal albums rollout now...

Finally... The Top 200 Extreme Metal Albums of ALL TIME!

On the classical thread, I suggested doing a ballot poll for 20th century notated music. I'd be up for it if at least a third other person expressed interest. A suggestion was made that that poll could maybe run parallel to this queue since it might not involve as many people. Would this work, whoever is involved in co-ordinating these things?

Hi! I'm twice-coloured! (Sund4r), Monday, 15 February 2016 17:08 (eight years ago) link

they made frobisher wait his turn despite no one here being interested in it so i doubt those also waiting will approve even though they should

Cosmic Slop, Monday, 15 February 2016 17:14 (eight years ago) link

imo it would be totally fine to run whenever

Larry Elleison (rogermexico.), Monday, 15 February 2016 21:24 (eight years ago) link

Yeah do yr thing

Οὖτις, Tuesday, 16 February 2016 00:10 (eight years ago) link

man there's some really good shit coming up in the queue here. up-my-alley stuff anyway. kinda stunned that we haven't done the smiths! that'll be cool, small catalog but not too small, ton of desperately beloved songs. not predictable imho. pearl jam will be interesting also for different reasons (bigger catalog but maybe a divide between people who only know their 90s records, like me, and people who stuck with them as fans).

shandemonium padawan (Doctor Casino), Tuesday, 16 February 2016 00:24 (eight years ago) link

I'm really looking forward to running the Smiths poll.

nate woolls, Tuesday, 16 February 2016 10:12 (eight years ago) link

go ahead and run it now, then, nothing else is happening

droit au butt (Euler), Tuesday, 16 February 2016 10:43 (eight years ago) link

It could go out tonight...

Mark G, Tuesday, 16 February 2016 14:24 (eight years ago) link

Yeah, let's do The Smiths. I'm on board.

Ⓓⓡ. (Johnny Fever), Tuesday, 16 February 2016 15:03 (eight years ago) link

Done. Get voting!

nate woolls, Tuesday, 16 February 2016 15:30 (eight years ago) link

oh awesome!!

shandemonium padawan (Doctor Casino), Tuesday, 16 February 2016 15:50 (eight years ago) link

oh boo i'll be out of country for this. wonder if i can slap a ballot together in the next few hours...

Larry Elleison (rogermexico.), Tuesday, 16 February 2016 17:44 (eight years ago) link

SOME POLLS ARE BIGGER THAN OTHERS - ILM Artist Poll #72 - THE SMITHS

Bee OK, Wednesday, 17 February 2016 03:31 (eight years ago) link

two weeks pass...

really excited for Stereolab

Van Horn Street, Wednesday, 2 March 2016 05:12 (eight years ago) link

There doesn't seem to be an Underworld one. I'm happy to run that if you want to add it to the queue.

groovypanda, Monday, 7 March 2016 08:35 (eight years ago) link

YEAAAAAAHHHH!

hardcore dilettante, Tuesday, 8 March 2016 04:39 (eight years ago) link

what happened to the dino jr poll?

Van Horn Street, Tuesday, 8 March 2016 17:32 (eight years ago) link

The person who was running it decided to sub it out for someone else.

Bee OK, Tuesday, 8 March 2016 17:46 (eight years ago) link

who's next - CAN? Stereolab?

Οὖτις, Tuesday, 8 March 2016 17:59 (eight years ago) link

Bauhaus is up

Bee OK, Tuesday, 8 March 2016 19:13 (eight years ago) link

will someone call me when it's can o'clock?

La Lechuza (La Lechera), Tuesday, 8 March 2016 19:54 (eight years ago) link

it's always can o'clock somewhere

mookieproof, Tuesday, 8 March 2016 19:56 (eight years ago) link

well technically there's several things in the queue ahead of Bauhaus (including CAN) but the people who volunteered to run those polls are AWOL

Οὖτις, Tuesday, 8 March 2016 19:56 (eight years ago) link

Any reason why whoever was running the polls then ignored this?

― Bee OK, Tuesday, February 9, 201

Then the Smiths went which was queued even later

Bee OK, Tuesday, 8 March 2016 21:44 (eight years ago) link

When can I start the Stereolab poll!?

✖✖✖ (Moka), Wednesday, 9 March 2016 07:47 (eight years ago) link

Could someone be kind enough to pm me when I can start the threads?

✖✖✖ (Moka), Wednesday, 9 March 2016 07:48 (eight years ago) link

Οὖτις, Wednesday, 9 March 2016 21:07 (eight years ago) link

Excellent. The following is a test for browser/mobile size of the albums images don't mind me.

V excited for Stereolab, even more now after seeing that.

nate woolls, Wednesday, 9 March 2016 21:39 (eight years ago) link

omg so excited

Van Horn Street, Wednesday, 9 March 2016 21:39 (eight years ago) link

i've been thinking of a stereolab list since this summer. i'm ready.

Van Horn Street, Wednesday, 9 March 2016 21:40 (eight years ago) link

I wish you'd start it now so there was a poll going on that I'm interested in, but I guess that wouldn't be cool.

WilliamC, Wednesday, 9 March 2016 21:45 (eight years ago) link

ouch, sorry i'm doing Bauhaus.

Bee OK, Thursday, 10 March 2016 02:52 (eight years ago) link

Hey, I didn't vote but I really like Bauhaus and I'm following the poll!

✖✖✖ (Moka), Thursday, 10 March 2016 05:35 (eight years ago) link
