# 90 on deck, anyone ready to run a poll?
― Bee OK, Thursday, 7 June 2018 00:15 (five years ago) link
did we ever do a 2010-2014 poll? I forget
― k3vin k., Thursday, 7 June 2018 00:15 (five years ago) link
nope, got canceled
― Bee OK, Thursday, 7 June 2018 00:17 (five years ago) link
at some point i would like to do a (no joke) all-time easy listening/adult contemporary poll if such a project has not been undertaken in the past
― dyl, Thursday, 7 June 2018 02:43 (five years ago) link
Easy listening/adult contemporary actually sounds very appealing. It would need a lengthy nomination perhaps.
― kornrulez6969, Thursday, 7 June 2018 03:36 (five years ago) link
i agree, it definitely would
― dyl, Thursday, 7 June 2018 04:22 (five years ago) link
not sure how you'd establish criteria for that
― Οὖτις, Thursday, 7 June 2018 17:45 (five years ago) link
How has no one suggested un-cancelling the 2010-2014 poll?
― I Never Promised You A Hose Harden (Eric H.), Thursday, 7 June 2018 17:48 (five years ago) link
because very soon it will be time for the 2010s poll
― mookieproof, Thursday, 7 June 2018 19:51 (five years ago) link
A pre-1950 poll would be interesting.
― Dan Worsley, Thursday, 7 June 2018 20:11 (five years ago) link
It is a blight on ILM that there has been no Elvis Presley poll.
― kornrulez6969, Thursday, 7 June 2018 20:16 (five years ago) link
xp I'd like a pre-war poll of some kind although it might be better to narrow it, idk
― ogmor, Thursday, 7 June 2018 21:16 (five years ago) link
A massive 2010-2019 poll would be better than a half-decade one imo
― josh az (2011nostalgia), Thursday, 7 June 2018 23:57 (five years ago) link
we really need a summer kick off poll. Elvis would be amazing!
― Bee OK, Saturday, 9 June 2018 01:15 (five years ago) link
Easy-listening and pre-war would be particularly cool, I think.
Is anyone ready to go with something? If it wasn't for the monumental queue-jumping involved I'd happily get a Go-Betweens poll running literally right now! :)
― Nag! Nag! Nag!, Saturday, 9 June 2018 03:48 (five years ago) link
if easy listening includes library/soundtrack stuff, that will be . . . intense
― mookieproof, Saturday, 9 June 2018 03:51 (five years ago) link
My thinking at the time of squelching the 2010-14 poll was that a "history of ILM" poll would be more fun, and would've covered 2001-16 at the time. But shit, we're so close to 2020 now, we may as well wait and do the whole shebang.

With the passing of DJ Fontana, perhaps someone (not me) could do an Elvis poll?
― Making Plans For Sturgill (C. Grisso/McCain), Thursday, 14 June 2018 19:09 (five years ago) link
I’m signed up for it, I guess I can do it now, but I can’t do fancy artwork or anything like that for the roll out. I can count the votes though and try to do the roll out at a reasonable time. Does someone else want to do art for it?
― droit au butt (Euler), Thursday, 14 June 2018 19:15 (five years ago) link
I’m up for the Elvis one if you want
― ✖✖✖ (Moka), Thursday, 14 June 2018 19:16 (five years ago) link
so Euler will run the Elvis poll and Moka will help with images is how i'm understanding it. it's Elvis so it should have two involved. looking forward to it you two.
― Bee OK, Thursday, 14 June 2018 23:40 (five years ago) link
Awesome. Euler as soon as you start counting ballots, Idk if you’ll use google docs or something else but share with me motelmoka at gmail.
When do we start and how many tracks will you post?
― ✖✖✖ (Moka), Friday, 15 June 2018 00:24 (five years ago) link
Yes! Elvis poll! I like this kind of party!!!
Let me be the first to say Change of Habit TOO LOW!
― kornrulez6969, Friday, 15 June 2018 00:40 (five years ago) link
I know you mean the song, but there should also be a sub-poll for the movies.

Oh yes. I'm very ready to vote for "Promise" and "Cloud Riders."
― geoffreyess, Saturday, 14 July 2018 21:56 (five years ago) link
Pre-1950s is too much music. Still suggest doing it decade by decade, though perhaps pre-1920 would be a more acceptable start than pre-1900?
― mfktz (Camaraderie at Arms Length), Saturday, 14 July 2018 22:12 (five years ago) link
how about an american songbook poll

if the current OPO thread has people excited, I could get the TMBG poll running.

I can send the spreadsheet I used to do the SP poll if you want (based on the one someone linked here a while ago) that automatically sums the results of submitted ballots instead of requiring you to manually input ballots against a master list of songs? you just need to check for spelling errors etc to prevent duplicates
― ufo, Monday, 6 August 2018 14:04 (five years ago) link
i was about to start a new poll tonight, not saying which one, but decided against it and deleted the thread at the last moment. i decided to do The Jesus and Mary Chain next instead but i feel that one can't happen in the summer. i will do that one in the winter of this year, maybe after my one year anniversary of Joy Division, who knows. all my other polls are up for grabs if anyone wants to take them over.
we have only done four artist polls this year?!? anyone in the mood to start a artist poll? ILM Artist Poll #91 is on deck...
― Bee OK, Thursday, 23 August 2018 01:35 (five years ago) link
if no one else is up for one I'm ready to start a Tori Amos poll in a few days
