Why do I start what I can't finish?

As evidenced in my ranking for Red's rankdown, I like this song a lot. I just can't justify ranking it in the top half when it just came out this year and I've known all the other ones for years.

This was by far my favorite discovery from the rankdown. Fantastic song.

I'm getting some P-P-P-P-PERFECT RANKINGS in this update, at least, so there's that. Let's see if my 46 makes the top ten! How exciting.

I promised that one person would not have any top 10s in the overall top 10. Luckily for Red, he has 3 left, so it's not him. Bangwave and peacebone both have one top 10 left, so one of them will leave tonight in tears. Surprisingly, janinho isn't even in contention. This song started out in the top 3 for the first ballot update, but it then fell into the bottom reaches in the top 20 before experiencing a resurgence and shooting into the top 10. It then got knocked out in the final update.
We lose five top tens, and one of them is a top five. There are only three bottom 20s, and none of them are bottom 10s.
This means Wheatsquares' #50 is in the top 10.

Wow I'm getting slaughtered here. Totally thought Royal Blood, QOTSA, and JEW were locks for top ten.

This means Wheatsquares' #50 is in the top 10. And my 46. I doubt they're the same song, though. Could see this being my #5 or my #10, and I thought that my #5 would be an easy target for this range...

Again, this is way too recent for me to rank in the top half. "Under the Pressure", "Red Eyes" or "Suffering", though?

I love TWOD, but this wasn’t one of my favorites of the list.

"Under the Pressure" would have been my #1, but that goes without saying. 1 | 5 | 10 11 | 14 | 15 | 16 27 | 30 ... 46 First seven all competed for my top ten, so no real complaints there, and my 27 and 30 would have been higher in lesser rankdowns. My 46 shouldn't be here, but I kind of figured it would be high for a couple of you, at the very least, so it's not a surprise that it's in the top ten.

I'm alright with my #45 making it in because I didn't dislike it.
Plus, that's my only low ranking left. Next is my #27, which I also really liked.

Not sure if I'll do a top ten prediction, but I can just about guarantee that "Sugar" will have multiple bottom ten rankings.

1 2 3 5 8 9 10 13 15 17
Can't say I'm disappointed with these results, I guess. Hoping my #1 has a shot at winning it all.
Here's my prediction for the top 10. 1. Rearviewmirror 2. Drones 3. Wolves at Night 4. Busy Bein' Born 5. Welcome Home 6. 45 7. All That's Left 8. The Quiet Things That No One Ever Knows 9. F.C.P.R.E.M.I.X. 10. Sugar

I knew it! I should've ranked Star Roving top 10 to avoid this embarrassing honor ... have to admit that I only love 2 of the remaining 10 songs

I'm really happy to see my #12, #15, and #16 in the top 10. I did not think they would make it this far along. I'll be rooting for my #4 to win but I'll be happy with whatever song takes the title.

Let's finish this off.
#10 was in the top ten for nearly the entire game. As we look behind us, it peaked at #4 and briefly fell out of the top ten before re-entering with the final list. This song has the third lowest standard deviation and takes care of three top tens, including one top 5. We lose no bottom 10s, but there are two bottom 20s.

I wrote this on my teacher's RateMyTeacher page. He recognized I wrote it in a day. #9 is a divisive one. We lose three top tens, but they're all top 5s. There are only two bottom 20s, but they're both bottom 5s. This song was once #50 and it was #47 after the first ballot update. Then, it shot upward with every single list except one, and the final one pushed it into the top ten for the first time. Quite the journey for this song.

#8 was in the top ten in every list after the first, because no song was in the top ten in each of them, thanks to Bangwave the contrarian. This song has four top tens, and only one of them is a top 5, but it's a #1. There are no bottom 10s, but there are three bottom 20s that prevented this from being in the top 5. This was in the top 5 for two lists.

Guessing that will be the only time we see SOAD in a top ten considering how the Serj tracks went down in the main rankdowns

#7 started out at the bottom and once it got into the top 10, it stayed there for a while before one bad ranking sunk it. Then, a late resurgence sent it back into the top 10, specifically #7, where it never left. This song has five top 10s, but they're all top 5s, and one of them is a #1. There are three bottom 20s, and one of them is a bottom 10.

Oh boy.
#6 is the big one. This was the dominant #1 for the entire submission process until one list sent it spiraling from #1 to #6. Then, it stayed there.
This has the highest standard deviation in the rankdown. It was consistently one of the lowest for a long time.
We lose a rankdown-high six top 10s. All of them are top 5s. One of them is a #1. We also lose three other top 20s.
On the other hand, there are three bottom 10s. Two of them are bottom 5s. The one other one might as well be.
Prepare yourselves.
