ILM Ballot Polls for 2014 and beyond -- order, timing, "I would have voted if I'd known about it," etc

mookieproof - yeah, baseball is almost here!

ufo - it's all yours if you want it.

Spottie - i think the interest is still there, my Talking Heads poll was in 2017 and got a huge turn out, one of the biggest ones in ILM history. i'm just a bit pissed at Joy Division. i got the ballots, more than your last poll, but i got little reaction and after how much time and effort was put into it i was upset. the votes were there but where was the reaction was my issue. (Go SF Giants)

Doctor Casino - Super Furry Animals is next then :-) talk about a very limited audience but my passion for that band is almost unmatched, only the Boo Radleys poll compares to that for me and that one was done. the B-52's would be outstanding and a lot of fun.

if ufo or someone else takes Smashing Pumpkins then i will do the Jesus and Mary Chain sometime in 2018 or next for me.

I can start the Smashing Pumpkins poll next week then to get things going

for those of you who use bookmarks, yay new poll:

POLLcelina of the Vast Oceans - ILM artist poll #87 - SMASHING PUMPKINS (voting open until 2 April 2018)

With Utopia out, I'd be happy to move to the front of the line with a Bjork poll soon imo.

please do, that would be great

No idea what etiquette is, so I'll wait at least until the Smashing Pumpkins rollout is done.

That would be great Eric!

Oh, which ends today, looks like. I'll make it a point to open that up soon.

The SP rollout started today and I think it ends on Friday.

My mistake. I thought they were wrapping up the songs but it was just albums.

That sounds great Eric, you can be poll #88. I hope there is a side poll for the Sugercubes.

Bang Bang You're Dead... POLL In Your Head - ILM Artist Poll #87 - SMASHING PUMPKINS - Results

Yeah, planning on side polling the albums + Sugarcubes tunes. But I think B-sides can be part of the main poll.

Also, something I'd been wondering about but too lazy to investigate. Has there been a '90s dance music poll?

that would be amazing

I volunteer to tabulate that one too, if not.

there's been a '90s electronic music poll, but

... not an '80s dance poll, though

Has there been a '90s dance music poll?

I seem to remember one about five years ago

I checked the results of the '90s electronic poll and it had an acceptable amount of dancey-ness in it. Probably don't need a repoll.

Excuse me, but I just have to explode this poll off me: POLL Neon Like -- ILM artist poll #88 -- BJÖRK (voting open until April 27, 2018)

... when would be a cool time to run a kylie minogue poll? i've never done one of these before so i'm a little clueless

you can open voting right when Bjork concludes. good luck and have fun. i was so nerves doing my first one, which happened to be New Order.

Does anybody want to do something now? With all due respect, Pre 1900 seems like it would get 10 ballots max. Maybe I'm wrong.

Well just to explain my reasoning, I've been making mixes for these years over here and there are full packs of mp3s ready to download, so maybe could get a little over 10 ballots. Then could do 1900s next year, then 1910s, 20s, 30s, 40s, 50s - think 60s onwards has been done enough.

Any input on this? I would like to run it, but if there's zero interest then fair enough, I won't bother.

can I do a Linda Ronstadt poll

in 2035 or whenever

lol sorry i'm seeing this just now, but yeah i think i can do this. my may is very open

There was talk of someone running an Elvis poll. That would be so great.

i will update this soon.

HYPERBALLOT: ILM Artist Poll #88 -- Björk Resultsness

National fair is finally over so I finally have time to run any poll you want in the following months if there’s noone else waiting in line.

oh btw i am dying bc of deadlines so i'm gonna have to delay the kylie poll so whoever wants to do whatever next can

who's up for a solo beatles poll

(meaning I will run it if ppl are interested in voting in it)

would vote

I would too, but mostly for Lennon and McCartney stuff probably (and some Cloud Nine tracks...)

hey those count

i'm the kinda person who could do a top forty ballot for just mccartney by himself. all of them together seems like it'd be REAL tough to make the cuts/inclusions, but that might make it pretty interesting!

well yeah that's the idea. I think we have some pretty conflicting opinions about solo Beatles around here tbh

All Ringo ballot from me

that's the spirit!

OK I'll start a noms/voting thread. No fistfights with Turrican plz

Shakey running: The Beatles' Solo Careers Poll - Voting and General Discussion Thread

I wonder if there might *just* be enough interest for a Go-Betweens poll. A number of ILMers have written quite eloquently about them, at least. I'd happily put it to the test if y'all add me to the queue.

I'd enthusiastically vote in a Go-Betweens poll!

<3

For sure

Great idea, go for it!

Would definitely vote in that, yeah.

omg yes please

missed a few days and things have already happened:
