It's not the self-promotion that bothers me the most. It's the laziness of not making an effort to spell a band correctly or to do a ctrl+f or to try to not mention the same artists in the ALBUMS and TRACKS list.

Whoops, not everything was included in the quotes. I am obviously not nominating anything in my last post. Sorry!

We've had the Arcana spammer on here before. FP away ppl.

I move to disqualify that poster's ballot

(ATTN: Johnny Fever and seandalai)

ALBUM

Zephaniah OHora - This Highway

17/30

Sanpaku, are you aware of Bachar Mar-Khalife's father? My favorite album, At the Border (from the early 80s).

Was going to on his twitter but public didn't seem right. He's just tweeted his EOY lists.

someone on facebook encouraged lex to return to ilx just for year-end voting but his response was a pretty firm no

therefore i suggest i be allowed to vote twice

maybe Lex is secretly the Arcana dude.

Spanish words ending in '_idad' are very often the same in English except you swap it with '-ity', so 'navidad/nativity, universidad/University. Therefore Trinidad is simply Trinity

Wrong thread, sorry
