This last round of cuts is TORTURE. I was doing okay until I got to 55, now I feel like I'm killing my babies.

we're up to 45 ballots btw! with emil.y, sleeve, and alex in mainhattan's, plus my own, plus a mystery voter that i choose to believe in and that you cannot disprove, that brings us to 50

Karl Malone, Sunday, 31 March 2019 16:05 (five years ago) link

I'll get mine in later today.

I'm just so thankful for the under 30 seconds side poll, because that meant I could cut those from my main ballot and keep them for their own category (though I did really want to see 'You Suffer' in the main poll). Up until now I forgot about the artist side poll, and also failed to write down non-nominated songs as I remembered them, so might only have one for that (it's a definite big one for me personally, though).

oh, there's a non-spotify playlist? cool, it's far too late for me to vote but i will check out the youtube playlist at least!

Jaki Liebowitz (rushomancy), Sunday, 31 March 2019 17:00 (five years ago) link

dangit rushomancy, it's not far too late to vote!

just do an unranked ballot, 20 of your faves or whatever! vote or die! don't die!

Karl Malone, Sunday, 31 March 2019 17:06 (five years ago) link

sorry, i just can't do it! do a poll of favorite songs that are exactly 2:00 long and maybe i can do it. :) glad to see the kenny process team got nominated, though! i've loved "mouse in the hole" for ages.

Voted! had too many after culls, so removed some which would obviously have support from others, this will mean that none of my choices place, but so it goes

Karl, does that google ballot submission form happen to do the tabulations for you as well, or is it just a way to acquire the lists? I'd like to use this voting setup for the Bacharach poll if it's not too hard to figure out.

16 Historic English ILXors You Must Explore Soon (WmC), Sunday, 31 March 2019 23:04 (five years ago) link

Voted! That was too much for my heart

alrakis morissette (tangenttangent), Sunday, 31 March 2019 23:06 (five years ago) link

just a way to acquire the lists. it just collects i ripped the idea off from the recent 2018 year end polls. but it does let you organize the questions in a certain way, have different sections of the poll and mark some as optional, and then collects everyone's answers in a spreadsheet.

Ugh this is hard. My ballot will be coming soon.

kornrulez6969, Monday, 1 April 2019 02:13 (five years ago) link

i haven't even started wittling it down yet. i'm still at around 80-90 songs category, and still listening to more things. it's been a fun weekend of listening!

Karl Malone, Monday, 1 April 2019 02:15 (five years ago) link

Voted but couldn't bring myself to vote for any of the Mary Poppins tracks.

zama roma ding dong (Eric H.), Monday, 1 April 2019 02:21 (five years ago) link

kornrulez6969, Monday, 1 April 2019 02:23 (five years ago) link

Emperor Tonetta Ketchup (sleeve), Monday, 1 April 2019 03:08 (five years ago) link

i'm happily doing spreadsheet shenanigans now. still time to vote, though! it ain't midnight in Hawaii yet. (and it isn't 6pm EST on April Fool's day, either, although, is that deadline even real?)

Karl Malone, Monday, 1 April 2019 03:27 (five years ago) link

Voted! My first ILM poll not of the multiple choice variety.

Lavator Shemmelpennick, Monday, 1 April 2019 03:59 (five years ago) link

1,300 songs, 50+ voters...I bet 2.00 votes, appropriately enough, will get you onto the countdown.

clemenza, Monday, 1 April 2019 23:07 (five years ago) link

didn't vote but am eagerly awaiting results.

Fuck the NRA (ulysses), Tuesday, 2 April 2019 07:35 (five years ago) link

Loving this Spotify playlist! Thanks, Karl!

Darin, Tuesday, 2 April 2019 16:12 (five years ago) link

I voted for "Lights Out," so it must have been nominated (I didn't stray from the list).

clemenza, Wednesday, 3 April 2019 02:48 (five years ago) link

busy finishing up the vote tallies!

any thoughts on the name of the results thread would be helpful. otherwise you'll get something really bad, with even more ascii music note symbols

Karl Malone, Wednesday, 3 April 2019 03:57 (five years ago) link

keep it simple, use the Dead Kennedys' "I Like Short Songs" title

even though I did not vote for it, it is kind of a statement of purpose

'Brevity is the Soul of Hits'

Apologies to W. Shakespeare for that.

Something could probably be mined from Jacques Dutronc's "Mini, mini, mini", another actual treatise on smallness amongst the nominations.
