…and in the albums list, you've got Streets and The Streets, leading to a large separation between the two.

50 for each I think! Will see to the remaining problems in a bit...

i know a weekend in the city isn't a good album but i'm voting for it

american bradass (BradNelson), Friday, 20 September 2019 19:26 (four years ago) link

added! any tracks feel free to add too

imago, Friday, 20 September 2019 20:10 (four years ago) link

also, all suggested changes have been made and 45:33 restored to tracks list

imago, Friday, 20 September 2019 20:10 (four years ago) link

tracks is a way too overwhelming a concept for me atm, just gonna go with what everyone else nominated

american bradass (BradNelson), Friday, 20 September 2019 20:21 (four years ago) link

ok! :)

if anyone else who hasn't posted yet by some miracle turns up tonight they might have their stuff added, otherwise i think the lists are as they shall be, misspellings and all. you've probably all got a few more hours of nabbing mistakes before we finalise everything idk

imago, Friday, 20 September 2019 20:26 (four years ago) link

i am going to try and finish these playlists this year weekend, if it kills me

imago, Friday, 20 September 2019 20:30 (four years ago) link

Oh, and we're working on a weighted ballot breakdown that skews things towards your top five (and even more so your top 4, 3, 2, 1), just FYI. Hope that's okay with everyone!

imago, Friday, 20 September 2019 21:05 (four years ago) link

To be clear, numbers 50-6 will get points ascending in twos and then 5-1 will get increasingly boosted

imago, Friday, 20 September 2019 21:06 (four years ago) link

seems reasonable! only unreasonable part is holy shit how am i gonna get down to 50 :|

we're giving you 3 weeks

imago, Friday, 20 September 2019 21:12 (four years ago) link

it's less the time and more the sobbing and begging if i can bring all of my toys on vacation with me

(i'm not complaining btw you are a hero for doing this and if i got to rank all 250 of the songs i've shortlisted already you uhhh would probably not have a fun time)

fortunately, seandalai's algorithms will be doing much of the heavy lifting!

nominations are totally and utterly closed now btw, errors and all

imago, Friday, 20 September 2019 21:14 (four years ago) link

Just a reminder to double check through the track playlist to get rid of instances where entire albums were put in there, such as Empire of the Sun's Walking on a Dream. Usually from when a title track was nominated.

MarkoP, Saturday, 21 September 2019 00:18 (four years ago) link

TRACKS

Kylie Minogue - Slow
Mis-Teeq - Scandalous
Richgirl - He Ain't With Me Now Tho

(30/30)

Going through the tracks list today and I think all three of these have been missed? Noticed only because I intended to vote for 2 of them myself!

technopolis, Saturday, 21 September 2019 21:08 (four years ago) link

Just noticed that Jazmine Sullivan is in there twice, once as "Jasmine Sullivan" for the track "Lions, Tigers and Bears."

Herman Woke (cryptosicko), Saturday, 21 September 2019 21:49 (four years ago) link

I'll try and amend that now

imago, Saturday, 21 September 2019 22:17 (four years ago) link

ok done. there's already a voting form so i hope this doesn't affect things too much

imago, Saturday, 21 September 2019 22:21 (four years ago) link

Doesn't affect at all :)

britain's secret sauce (seandalai), Saturday, 21 September 2019 23:39 (four years ago) link
