Nabozo:
Fuxxor Quotient = the proportion of tracks on your ballot that were in Pitchfork's top 100. I believe the term derives from 'corny indie fuXXor', which is a very old ILM in-joke / term of abuse / badge of honour. (Search old threads for 'corny indie' for examples.)
Antifuxxor Ratio = your ILM Hivemind score divided by your Fuxxor Quotient. A high ratio means your taste is much closer to that of ILM than to that of Pitchfork. Infinite antifuxxor ratio = supposedly a good thing.
Blood Sausage Index = The average points total for tracks that didn't appear on the most well known online/critics' EOY lists. Essentially, whether you love songs that nobody outside of ILM cares or knows about. I can't remember why 'blood sausage' though.

Late to discussion re appeal of "Itgehane": I agree with characterizations such as "extremely warm and feel-good", "beautiful sparkling construction" etc, BUT would add that as well as being top bobbins it also works p well as an actual words-and-tune song. (The Orielles cover really brought this out for me.) This most likely broadened its appeal even more, I'd guess.

I’m late to this thread, so I saw this post only now, but you're in luck: I posted a country breakdown in the rollout thread yesterday. Here it is, in a slightly tweaked version (cheers, Tuomas!):
I know you’ve all been waiting for this one, a valuable tradition started (afaik) by Lex, here it is, beter late than never...

Bad Bunny & J Balvin] (⅓), mewithoutyou, Toni Braxton, Soccer Mommy, Ravyn Lenae, Parquet Courts, Andrew W.K., Kali Uchis (½)
Of course, Drake cheated by crediting neither Big Freedia, nor 5th Ward Weebie, nor Lauryn Hill, and DJ Koze would have done well to credit Gladys Knight - but then again, US artists are overrepresented anyway \_(ツ)_/¯
Please report any mistakes or oversights to me, so I can do the whole damn thing over again. Thank U, next!
