ILM Ballot Polls for 2020 and beyond -- the ordering, timing, "I would have voted if I'd known about it," etc

Let's nudge the thread for a couple of days in case anyone who's been on deck for a while gets prompted: I'm ready to roll on Underworld, but have the 2019 film poll going on ILE right now, so want to stagger them a bit anyway. (Being locked inside for months is probably the best time for folks to try and figure out which of five nine-minute versions of different songs are their favourites, to be sure.)

NickB? sleeve? aldo? LJ?

Heh I think the shoegaze poll was one of my first polls so there’s no images, some of the winners don’t really qualify as shoegaze (not my fault! That’s on voters) and I broke the usual tie system into a weird one, I’m sure there’s plenty of mistakes too.

I mean it wasn’t strictly a shoegaze poll...

Grisso / McCain? sarahell? Eric H.? crutis?

i'm so busy at work right now that i can't do anything. work in prescription drug industry. my next poll will be shoegaze albums...

I won't run Cardiacs and such until LSD is a vain hope tbh

I guess I could push up the Hendrix poll, and have it up tomorrow or Friday.

I GUESS YOU COULD

I mean, that would be rad.

Well, I had wanted to run it in September (see upthread) but I've got fuck all going on rn, and I have lately been digging into my Hendrix stuff (currently spinning Electric Ladyland).

sic campaigning worked, nice

Hendrix seems perfect

Good stuff.

I have the 20 vote spreadsheet, but is one programmed for 25?

does this help:

Yes, thanks!

I'll see about getting this up by this evening.

“Oh, Move Over POLLER, And Let Jimi Take Over!” – ILX Artist Poll #101 – Jimi Hendrix – Voting Thread

cool. Really don't know my Hendrix well enough and this will be a good education.

Should be wrapping up the Hendrix voting this week. Anyone interested in doing images for the tracks rollout?

i could try to find some images on the web but i have no clue how to integrate them with the poll & track information.

I can do them with the caveat that while I can sling shit together, I am not a good designer.

“Oh, Move Over POLLER, And Let Jimi Take Over!” – ILX Artist Poll #101 – Jimi Hendrix – Voting Thread is closing after this weekend, so if you're interested, get those ballots in!

"Not Necessarily POLLED, But Beautiful..."– ILM Artist Poll #101 – Jimi Hendrix – Results Thread

who's next now that the hendrix poll is done? is sic still up for underworld?

I'm now more inclined to think that nobody will be able to concentrate hard enough to even tell a 1994 b-side from a 2019 remix, but the results rollout would make for good decision-free listening.

just looking forward to what is next

How's about that trip hop poll? Though I'd suggest opening it to beyond the Bristol bands.

Bristol & nearby bands keeps a certain elegant purity & focus imo.

anyway UNDERWORLD IS GO!

one-week-in bump

Underworld poll is rolling out at length, top 77 start today: why don't you poll me I feel like flying to... the UNDERWORLD Poll Results thread -- produced by Smith & Hyde for ILM Artist Poll #102

I'd like to bump myself in the mix for a Janet Jackson ballot poll because, really, she deserves her own apart from her family.

Would participate.

would love that

is someone still planning to run a 2010s poll sometime in the next few months?

Not sure what the protocol is for waiting one's turn, but I'd be happy to jump in with Janet whenever soonest available.

I would definitely be up for a Janet poll and the 2010s one.

Oh god, yes please Janet poll asap

With Underworld complete, I'm happy opening up a Janet poll if the people demand it.

I'm there for a Janet poll, but isn't the 2010s hip hop poll happening now?

It is, but I figured there had been concurrent single-artist and broader-topic polls in the past. But I can certainly wait, also.

That's true. Not like any of us have a whole lot else going on right now, I guess.

I actually think a Janet poll is a great idea, this artist poll would finish in plenty of time. The other poll is only in the nominations period.

It's POLL For You -- ILM artist poll #103 -- JANET JACKSON (voting open until July 24, 2020)

It's The Pleasure Princi-POLL -- ILM Artist Poll #103 -- JANET JACKSON Results Thread

am i allowed to list ballot polls that haven't yet been suggested and then volunteer to run them ? i have a few.

is the 2010s decade poll still planned for sometime soon?

oooh oooh, what's next?????

I will be excited about the 2010s poll as soon as it stops being too hot to be excited about anything at all

Who's going to run it? I almost could but I also think someone else should

That is correct budo jeru, add to this thread which ballot polls you want to run. Bee will update the list with you in the queue. Ordering is all out of wack, so you can probably skip to the front if you are ready to go.

oh not quite ready this instant, but thanks for the response !
