That TT track has been my secret DJ weapon this year! Girls go fucking nuts when you put that on.

Q: would permitting a larger ballot flatten out the results or would it make them more esoteric?
― Johnny Fever, Thursday, 23 January 2014 22:22 (ten years ago) link
Would depend on how voters reacted, I guess. Also, "flatten" could mean different things. More homogeneous wrt genres, artists,...?
Personally I think 25 works well.

it depends on the voters rather than the amount on ballot. In previous years I would have said esoteric (and argued thus)but now? A larger ballot would work on albums but I dont think tracks.
How about giving the #1 more points tho?
― ۩, Thursday, 23 January 2014 22:25 (ten years ago) link
You could give a "#1 bonus", then you'd have to decide what to do with unweighted ballots and how to minimise fractional scores.

seandalai how different from metal poll is the points here?
― ۩, Thursday, 23 January 2014 22:29 (ten years ago) link
Agree. I was just curious what the effect would be on the results with a larger ballot, and I think the answer is "who knows".
― Johnny Fever, Thursday, 23 January 2014 22:30 (ten years ago) link
I'm impressed that 3 other people voted for Paramore's "last hope"! That was my number 1. Didn't really expert it to get any votes.

only change to voting I would make is to not allow ballots from people who have never posted
― sleeve, Thursday, 23 January 2014 22:30 (ten years ago) link
Metal albums poll had weighted ballots only, 50 votes per ballot, points go 50,49,...,1.
― a man with legs made of sausages - that's not real! (seandalai), Thursday, 23 January 2014 22:31 (ten years ago) link
There are some names I don't recognise but I think the vast majority of voters are legit and I'm not really interested in policing who can and cannot vote.
― a man with legs made of sausages - that's not real! (seandalai), Thursday, 23 January 2014 22:32 (ten years ago) link
so I am the top blood sausage voter that did a full 25 ballot, i deserve some prize for that

Glad to see some tricot tracks showing up, threw my main weight behind the album, will maybe get enough votes to go top 100.

I thought some years we gave the #1 more weight?
and re real users - in metal poll there's tons of names I dunno yet they've been voting year in year out since glenn and i started it and they had to email in ballots back then.I do wish Cronos Smith would identify himself tho!
actually a few lurkers did de-lurk this year on ilm and the poll thread.
there's never any block voting either to suggest its fake ballots. I think ilxors are too grown up to bother with that shit.

Lots of great finds though. Didn't realize how much I would enjoy Charli XCX...and I would have voted Sky Ferreira much higher but I the album didn't really start clicking until after I voted.

Please reserve judgment about artist repetition until you have seen my album ballot. I think this is the first year I've submitted a full 25-track ballot, and the list I cut this down from could have given me 25 different artists, but I voted with my heart (more or less). I tried cutting some of the extra tracks by the same artists, but it never felt right.
