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

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 (seven years ago)

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 (seven years ago)

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

Emperor Tonetta Ketchup (sleeve), Wednesday, 3 April 2019 04:09 (seven years ago)

"Cut Off My Legs and POLL Me Shorty?"

'Brevity is the Soul of Hits'

Dan Worsley, Wednesday, 3 April 2019 05:00 (seven years ago)

Apologies to W. Shakespeare for that.

Dan Worsley, Wednesday, 3 April 2019 05:01 (seven years ago)

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

"It Won't Be Long," to paraphrase one of the nominated Byrds songs.

There's no time to explain:

they're not booing you, sir, they're shouting "Boot Edge Edge" (Will M.), Wednesday, 3 April 2019 14:46 (seven years ago)

You people are iconoclasts, mockers of institutions. Poll thread titles need to play off the word poll. Submitted for your approval: POLL Art Threat

(from Prole Art Threat by the Fall, a nominee)

I know I'm going to lose this one, but please, please, no.

YOU POLL BUT WHY

Yes!

emil.y, Wednesday, 3 April 2019 18:44 (seven years ago)

Someone explain to this dummy?

LEOPLOD BLOOMPS (Leee), Wednesday, 3 April 2019 19:43 (seven years ago)

idgi either

ILX Loophole Converts Your IRA/401(k) to Physical Gold (WmC), Wednesday, 3 April 2019 19:48 (seven years ago)

reference to "You Suffer" iirc

Emperor Tonetta Ketchup (sleeve), Wednesday, 3 April 2019 19:55 (seven years ago)

yes indeed

Neus Anneus (voodoo chili), Wednesday, 3 April 2019 20:09 (seven years ago)

sorry to insist but where is the relation to the shortness of the songs?

Ich bin kein Berliner (alex in mainhattan), Wednesday, 3 April 2019 21:02 (seven years ago)

that part usually comes after the pun

they're not booing you, sir, they're shouting "Boot Edge Edge" (Will M.), Wednesday, 3 April 2019 21:18 (seven years ago)

Hey everyone, here’s my rough plan:

Rollout on Friday, Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, about 20-30 per day. Mostly during daytime/working hours (USA) but maybe a few in the early evening as well.

I wanted to start today but I didn’t have time to finish up the first batch of images before heading in to work.

Karl Malone, Thursday, 4 April 2019 13:28 (seven years ago)

You'll probably have a slower start in terms of responses as people will be out for the weekend, but I like the sound of a Wednesday climax (ahem).

emil.y, Thursday, 4 April 2019 15:04 (seven years ago)

Yeah, there’s also the option of starting on Monday and finishing on Friday? That would give me time to get more of a head start on the images for the rollout, too. I just didn’t want people to be pissed that it was taking forever to get to the results.

Karl Malone, Thursday, 4 April 2019 15:16 (seven years ago)

End of year polls tend to be Monday to Friday and that seems to work for good engagement/excitement, and it's not been all that long yet! I'd probably vote for Mon-Fri but don't have a massively strong preference.

emil.y, Thursday, 4 April 2019 15:28 (seven years ago)

if you do start tomorrow then i would skip sat-sun and start up again monday. you could start tomorrow and do the first 19 then you have 20 per day next mon-fri. do what you want with the time you have.

but I can't let Trae do it I got Huerter on my mind (Spottie), Thursday, 4 April 2019 15:38 (seven years ago)

agreed with spottie

Neus Anneus (voodoo chili), Thursday, 4 April 2019 15:40 (seven years ago)

Side polls and a handful of results Friday, main deal starting Monday?

ILX Loophole Converts Your IRA/401(k) to Physical Gold (WmC), Thursday, 4 April 2019 15:40 (seven years ago)

Sounds like a plan. Taster on Friday before the main course next week.

Dan Worsley, Thursday, 4 April 2019 15:42 (seven years ago)

cosign last 2 posts

Emperor Tonetta Ketchup (sleeve), Thursday, 4 April 2019 15:44 (seven years ago)

Sounds good! I should be able to do 20 tomorrow. And also 2 of the side polls.
