1) Which songs do you expect to see in the top 10? Looks like this has been pretty well covered same thoughts as most: Foo Fighters and Rise Against. I'd love to see The Bravery get in there and judging by the posts in here so far, they just might.
2) Which songs do you think will be in the bottom 10? Same as most - Kid Rock, Buckcherry and I can only hope Rehab and Puscifer. 3) Which Song will have the highest Standard deviations? Probably IKAG and "Paper Planes". Throw "Handlebars" in there too.
4) Which Song will have the lowest standard deviations? Foo Fighters songs and probably Silversun.
5) How Far Do you think your number one will make it? I think its got a chance at #1 but top 10 for sure or you're all doing it wrong.

Right off the bat, I know I overranked my #31 by about 16 spots, I gave it a boost because of the artist, but it’s one of their worst song.
I underranked my #44 and #52, both should be higher

There's a song on here I vastly underranked, but through the active 2008 rankdown, I realized I loved it. I already changed it, but I'm curious to see how my change boosts it.

2) Which songs do you think will be in the bottom 10? Kid Rock, 10 Ton Brick, Bartender Song, Queen B, Cuckcherry And Paper Planes. I would be shocked if "Paper Planes" is bottom ten. I'd be more shocked to see that than "Ten Ton Brick", honestly.

sorry guys, too busy with finals to get the listening in for this one, and don't really have the motivation to go through the ~35 tracks required to finish my list. Break is starting soon though so I should have the time to get the next few in!
Btw "Paper Planes" was provisionally in my Top 20 so idk who that makes happy or sad.
oh also Bravery were Top 10.

1) Which songs do you expect to see in the top 10? At least one song each by the Foo Fighters, Rise Against, and Offspring. MGMT, Silversun Pickups, Radiohead, maybe "Never Too Late".
2) Which songs do you think will be in the bottom 10? Theory of a Deadman, Hinder, Buckcherry, "I Kissed A Girl", "Bartender Song", "Psycho"
3) Which Song will have the highest Standard deviations? A-Punk, Paper Planes, Given Up, Pork and Beans, Rock N Roll Train
4) Which Song will have the lowest standard deviations? Silversun Pickups, Foo Fighters, Radiohead, "The Good Left Undone", Buckcherry and Hinder
5) How Far Do you think your number one will make it? Likely top 10, possibly top 5, wouldn't bet on #1 but it's not out of the question

Closeish to being done with my list, looks like I should be able to squeeze it in before the deadline! And for those wondering, I couldn't bring myself to rank Psycho all that high, though it still should end up in my top 30ish.

Sent! This was a decent year imo, not awful but not amazing, the bottom 10 was quite easy to choose because there were so many mediocre tracks but my top 10 is also pretty great.

fine you guys got me, I'll have it in before 10pm. Plus don't want to miss an Alt rankdown for the first time ever.
btw Alt has changed so much in 10 years, can't believe some of these songs charted looking at the format now.

The more I think about it, "Ten Ton Brick" or "Psycho" have to be the highest SDs. "Ten Ton Brick" will have more high rankings for sure, but not as many very low ones, while I predict the high-rankers for "Psycho" (and with the 2008 Active data, there are more than expected) to be stretched by the overwhelmingly negative ones.

(Slightly less than) 3 hours left! Since Leo's list last night, I've gotten two more lists, both of which have already been mentioned above.

Just submitted! I totally stand by my statement about this being a terrible year for alt -- the bottom 5 on my list would've likely all been #100 and my #1 may not have even made my top 5 on a better year. Not to mention that when I was categorizing these songs, the mediocre section was even bigger then the good or decent one.
1. Which songs do you expect to see in the top 10? Predict the #1 as well, if you'd like. Believe, The Pretender, Long Road to Ruin, Viva La Vida, Time to Pretend, You're Gonna Go Far Kid, and Re-Education (Through Labor) all seem likely to make the top 10 (with The Pretender seeming like the most likely winner), then I'll guess Let It Die, Violet Hill, and the Good Left Undone as the other three.
2. Which songs do you expect to see in the bottom 10? Predict the #100 as well, if you'd like. Too Drunk (I'd be shocked if this isn't #100), Bad Girlfriend, Use Me, Amen, Addicted, Sorry, and Scream Aim Fire all seem like near locks, then maybe So Happy, Psycho (unless I'm underestimating the amount of apologists the song has), and Bartender Song for the other three. Thinking IKAG will juuuust miss because of some of the pop posters.
3. Which songs do you think will have the highest standard deviations? Paper Planes will probably have the highest, and I think Handlebars, Well Thought Out TwinklesI Kissed a Girl, Hammerhead, A Day That Never Comes, and Hard Sun will also be pretty high.
4. Which songs do you think will have the lowest standard deviations? Some of the more inoffensive generic post grunge (Good Times Bad Times, Its Not My Time), some of the truly bad stuff that almost no one besides drindie defends (Too Drunk, Use Me, Scream Aim Fire), and most of the Foo Fighters songs.
5. How far do you think your #1 will make it? Hmm, I'd say top 30 is a near lock, but I'm not 100% sure how much further. I'll guess about 15 or so.

The Bravery were hands down one of the worst live shows I've ever seen. Singer had to have been hammered drunk and he sounded atrocious and the show was boring altogether.

f**k you guys like the bravery are you kidding me I'm not head over heels for 2007/2008-era Bravery, honestly, but I expect a lot of people will be. 2005 Bravery, on the other hand...that's where my nostalgia really kicks in. "An Honest Mistake" is probably going to be top 10 for me, or close to it. I still love that damn song.

Not life changing but definitely peaked my curiosity

Daryl the Beryl, have you considered organizing your spotify playlists into folders? It would make things easier to navigate

I'm gonna make some fun out of my failures
I have Alcohol tonight, and for every ten points I'm off, I'll take a shot. Seeing as my Duran Duran list failed miserably, I'm expecting an interesting reveal
