It would be helpful to me if you could use the same delimiter between your rank and the artist as you use to separate the artist from the album/song. The deadline for your 1983 lists is 11:59pm forum time on May 31st. Lists must have a minimum of 5 albums and songs to be eligible, but feel free to come up with extended lists if you like - every ranked album and song will receive points! Moreover, I will assign points to all of your ranked entries, not only your top 15. Your ranked albums and songs will be assigned points using the following formula: Wildcard points = (Yearly points)/(number of ballots) At the end of the 10 yearly polls, the top 50 of the 100 candidates will qualify for the finals based on a new wildcard point system: Keeping with recent tradition, the top 10 albums and songs from each year will automatically qualify for the final, and albums and songs in the 11-20 range will become eligible to be "wildcard" entries. What will remain the same is that I will ask you to post ranked lists of your favorite albums and songs of each year. Next up will be your favorite albums and songs of 1983, yet another outstanding year!Ī few things remain the same with the decade poll, and a few things will be different. Come one, come all to the poll that will celebrate the yellowest decade of them all, the 1980s!
