First things first... Exactly one day left until the deadline! If you still haven't started on the list, now's your last chance to start! If you'd like to make any last-minute changes to your list, do it before it's too late! I won't be posting any more Ballot Updates for this rankdown, though I will say whose lists I've received since the last Ballot Update - .indulgecountry and American Idiot . Daryl the Beryl also sent me a revised version of his list earlier today.

Next...our reveal schedule. Now, this rankdown's reveal schedule will be faster than it normally is, as I plan on taking full advantage of my free time this weekend and doing two sets of reveals on Saturday and Sunday. Barring any last minute changes, this will be the schedule:
#100-86: Friday 12/8, between 10 and 10:30 PM EST #85-71: Saturday 12/9, 12 PM EST #70-56: Saturday 12/9, 9 PM EST #55-41: Sunday 12/10, 12 PM EST #40-26: Sunday 12/10, 9 PM EST #25-11: Monday 12/11, 9 PM EST #10-1: Tuesday 12/12, 9 PM EST

And now, to have something to mull over in these last 24 hours...how about a survey? 1. Which songs do you expect to see in the top 10? Predict the #1 as well, if you'd like.
2. Which songs do you expect to see in the bottom 10? Predict the #100 as well, if you'd like.
3. Which songs do you think will have the highest standard deviations?
4. Which songs do you think will have the lowest standard deviations?
5. How far do you think your #1 will make it?

Interesting... this actually throws off my plans for 2008 Active because I intended to start revealing mine on Friday December 15, which given a normal schedule would be the day right after the end of this. A 2-day layover period won't hurt, though.

1. Which songs do you expect to see in the top 10? Predict the #1 as well, if you'd like. The Good Left Undone and Re-Education (Through Labor), just by virtue of being Rise Against songs, although I hope the latter falls far short. The Pretender is a lock, and so is Let It Die. Hammerhead, Well Thought Out Twinkles, Time to Pretend, The Stone, Believe is a stretch but I have faith, and maybe Leave Out All the Rest? There is one song I know that would likely be in the top 10, but I hope I single-handedly prevented it from doing more. peacebone, you may know which one I am referring to. 2. Which songs do you expect to see in the bottom 10? Predict the #100 as well, if you'd like. The two F uckcherry songs, Nickelback, Hinder, Puddle of Mudd, the ninth song on Dirt, Kid Rock, AC/DC, and my username 3. Which songs do you think will have the highest standard deviations? I'm not good with predicting these. 4. Which songs do you think will have the lowest standard deviations? 5. How well do you think you will do in this rankdown? How far do you think your #1 will make it? Decently enough, although my middle-tier could see a beating quite early. Don't expect to compete for closeness crown. My #1 could take it all.

After hearing the last songs I had to listen, I need to listen my pop music. Some songs annoyed me heavily. Sending mine in 15 minutes (or before) :)

My roommate just said he loves Puddle of Mudd and proceeded to play them. I think I need to move out. If the song he played wasn't "Blurry", I would demand a mental evaluation. Daryl predicting that "You're Gonna Go Far, Kid" will have a low SD, despite the fact that I'm participating... 1. Which songs do you expect to see in the to[bp 10? Predict the #1 as well, if you'd like."Hammerhead", "The Pretender", "Believe"...I think all of those will be there, as well as one of the Rise Against songs, though probably not both. "Well Thought Out Twinkles" could, but I think "Lazy Eye" has a better chance in 2007. If "Kids" was #3 in 2009, I'd think that "Time to Pretend" will make it, too. One of the LP songs will make it, though I'm not quite sure which. "Bodysnatchers" could get a surprising amount of high rankings. "Crushcrushcrush" could, but I bet there will be a Paramore backlash after the 2009 Alt RD. If I had to guess right now, #1 will be "The Pretender". If/when James ever finishes his Influential Artists rankdown, I'll know for sure. 2. Which songs do you expect to see in the bottom 10? Predict the #100 as well, if you'd like.Hinder, both Buckcherry songs, Puddle of Mudd, Kid Rock, Godsmack...all of those have to be there. "Bartender Song" is a good shout, too. I'd be more confident about Nickelback or "Bad Girlfriend" making it, but with more than one known fan of both submitting, that's not a given. Kid Rock would be my #100 choice, as of right now, but maybe it'll be a surprise. 3. Which songs do you think will have the highest standard deviations?The highest standard deviations tend to be the songs that are either heavy, pop crossovers, or incredibly divisive rock bands...so let's say "Ten Ton Brick", "I Kissed a Girl", "Gotta Be Somebody", and "Bad Girlfriend". 4. Which songs do you think will have the lowest standard deviations?Godsmack, Kid Rock, "Leave Out All the Rest", and "Long Road to Ruin". Just a hunch on the Foo song, it could be any one of the three with them. 5. How far do you think your #1 will make it?I think it has a chance at #1. An outside chance, but a chance. My #2 is the more interesting song to predict, because I have NO idea where it will land. I'd say somewhere in the middle, but who knows? Maybe I'm the only one that really liked the song. Maybe there are more people who really liked the song than I realized.

My thoughts about my own list and the answers.
My upper half of the list is super strong.
My bottom 20 is awful as hell.
1. Which songs do you expect to see in the top 10? Predict the #1 as well, if you'd like. CrushCrsuhCrush, The Pretender, The Stone (I have this pretty high and is nice to see is well liked), Human, Linkin Park songs..
2. Which songs do you expect to see in the bottom 10? Predict the #100 as well, if you'd like. Ricochet, Becoming the bull, Queen B, Psycho, Use Me... and I better stop because I'm revealing my bottom 10...
3. Which songs do you think will have the highest standard deviations? I Kissed A Girl, Rock N Roll Train, The Day That Never Comes, CrushCrushCrush.
4. Which songs do you think will have the lowest standard deviations? The Killers, The Offsrpings, Foo Fighters
5. How far do you think your #1 will make it? Hoping for the best, top 25. I wouldn't be surprised if my #1 leaves entering top 50

What "Believe" are you guys talking about for possible top 10 placement? The Bravery or Staind?
Both great songs nonetheless.

Staind's "Believe" is incredibly sappy. I expect that to not escape the bottom 25, maximum it goes is #61, me says. "Something to Remind You" was a great ballad, not this or "All I Want".
Fwiw the Staind song was one of the songs I put in my bottom 10 initially but it barely escaped it on my revised list.

1. Which songs do you expect to see in the top 10? Predict the #1 as well, if you'd like. "The Pretender", "Let It Die", "The Good Left Undone", "Re-Education (Through Labor)", "Hammerhead", probably a Linkin Park song. I think Metallica and Chevelle can be some sneaky picks here.
2. Which songs do you expect to see in the bottom 10? Predict the #100 as well, if you'd like. Hinder, Puddle of Mudd, Buckcherry are the three locks I have. Maybe just "Too Drunk" for Buckcherry with "Sorry" escaping. I can see "Bad Girlfriend" being there, but it has some of its love.
3. Which songs do you think will have the highest standard deviations? "Gotta Be Somebody", "I Kissed A Girl", "Ten Ton Brick"
4. Which songs do you think will have the lowest standard deviations? Probably all the Foo Fighters songs.
5. How far do you think your #1 will make it? I'm hoping all the way to #1! But in reality, I think top 40 will be a win to me. I really hope it can go further though. Please!

I don't get your guys' hate towards Staind honestly. What's wrong with them?
Spoiler: I have "Believe" pegged pretty high. The Bravery is decently high for me too anyways.
You guys better not do "Right Here" dirty when it comes up (that charted on Alt right? lol).

I expect three songs of my top 10 to be out in the first night. And my #13.
And some of you might be surprised about my #2 and my #3.
You can try to guess these songs.

Just added Leo ✔'s list. I said I wasn't going to make any more "ballot updates", but I will say this as it's major - for the first time in 15 lists (since janinho's list), the #1 has changed with Leo ✔'s list!
