resubmitted again, sorry for the second revision, the tracks list is difficult, I keep rethinking what mattered the most to me that decade, ended up re-ordering my top 10
― Dan S, Saturday, 12 October 2019 00:47 (four years ago) link

― johnny crunch, Saturday, 12 October 2019 01:28 (four years ago) link
Done! I only repeated one artist (Missy) in tracks, no repeats in albums. Viva variety!
― Johnny Fever, Saturday, 12 October 2019 01:59 (four years ago) link
Resubmitted my albums (no changes, but I had to fix a typo on the last entry)
― jmm, Saturday, 12 October 2019 02:22 (four years ago) link
typo?
― Johnny Fever, Saturday, 12 October 2019 02:22 (four years ago) link
I copied my picks from the nominations list into a Word file, and from there into the voting form, but Word autocorrected one of the hyphens into a dash. So I just fixed that.
― jmm, Saturday, 12 October 2019 02:32 (four years ago) link
Ah, just wanted to make sure.
― Johnny Fever, Saturday, 12 October 2019 02:44 (four years ago) link
love the video for Lust for Life, it's the most SF thing ever
also the one for Hellhole Ratrace which should have been nominated

Nobody nominated Monster Hospital, so I had to vote for Help I'm Alive. That's ok.
― Johnny Fever, Saturday, 12 October 2019 02:52 (four years ago) link

How did ILM managing to get through the nominations process without including either of the first two Fiery Furnaces records or Ciara's The Evolution? Both would have been unthinkable omissions at the time they came out.
― Matt DC, Saturday, 12 October 2019 10:03 (four years ago) link
I just realised there's only one Jay-Z album nominated as well.
― Matt DC, Saturday, 12 October 2019 10:05 (four years ago) link
Also can I be churlish and point out that 'The Magical World of the Strands' was relaased in 1998 and definitely doesn't count here?

Hahaha no one nominated 'Survivor' either.
― Matt DC, Saturday, 12 October 2019 11:10 (four years ago) link
This'll be a suitably spiritual successor to the original 2000-2004 poll as a result of all the omissions (although there were rather more brutal nomination restrictions with that first poll). Hope there's at least over 60 ballots.

Compelled to send an edited tracks ballot sorry
― or something, Saturday, 12 October 2019 12:45 (four years ago) link
I ended up voting with my heart on the albums list and heavily tactically on the tracks ballot. Impossible to pick my genuine ten favourite songs from an entire decade so I ended up piling the top 10 with records I both loved and passionately felt should be represented.
― Matt DC, Saturday, 12 October 2019 13:14 (four years ago) link
lol, Blueberry Boat was the first thing nominated in the entire poll
― imago, Saturday, 12 October 2019 14:27 (four years ago) link
I haven't listened to The Meadowlands in forever, but man, it aged tremendously well.

these did get a few votes (three so far) - those votes will be zapped (not the whole ballot, just those tracks); in a ranked ballot the tracks below will be moved up one position

Didn't quite manage to fill the ballot as I've been attempting to finagle my way into the Après Ski scene and I didn't want to take my chances with a fat ballot I might have to explain on the fly. Nevertheless, I voted.
― saer, Saturday, 12 October 2019 16:37 (four years ago) link
Voted twice today. One for parliamentary elections, one for ILX.My nominations were late and I had to let go of some top favorites, so I really can't complain about the selection. But it's rather poor to be honest :PBig thanks to the organizers for the idea.
― Nabozo, Saturday, 12 October 2019 18:06 (four years ago) link
Man, making a ballot is hard! I thought everything I liked would be nominated by someone else, but I forgot I'm the only Dane on here, one of few Scandinavs. I think I'm missing, like, ten albums I'd want to put on there, and that makes it all really hard.
― Frederik B, Saturday, 12 October 2019 18:51 (four years ago) link
How am I supposed to make a ballot without Håkan Hellström or Kaizers Orchestra or Bjørn Svin or Under Byen or Tiger Tunes or...

Voted
― Frederik B, Saturday, 12 October 2019 19:11 (four years ago) link
done, at least i got my act together to make top 5 mixed ballots. very curious about the overall results. thanks a lot for making this possible imago and seandalai.

Going to shut this down in about half an hour - unless there's someone out there furiously working through the nominations after three weeks of procrastination?
