RED'S JOURNEY - EXTENDED
Red's Pop Rankdown...II Well, as expected, the third Crazy rankdown got off to a roaring start with just a few submissions to its name. Part of that is simply because I needed a bit of a break from hosting rankdowns, but another part of that is, well, the Crazy rankdown model tends to inspire later submissions than other Journeys. Because of this, I wanted to host a rankdown that, I have a hunch, will be a little more popular. The first pop rankdown that I hosted was one of my personal favorite rankdowns to host so far, and I knew that a sequel was always going to happen eventually. I just didn't know when to go ahead with it. I suppose now is the time. One slight catch: Like the first pop rankdown, there are going to be a couple of songs that test the pop boundaries. Unlike the last pop rankdown, there's more of them this time. I like to think that the Crazy rankdowns rubbed off on this rankdown at least a little bit. You could also look at it as if I included something for just about everyone.
As always, here's a couple of notes...
- You will send your rankings (1-40, 1 for your favorite song, 40 for your least favorite) to me via PM. As of right now, the deadline is set for Sunday, November 17th. This deadline is not completely inflexible, as I've already extended the deadline at least once, but I would still try to submit before the deadline, anyway. The deadline time is the new standard: 8pm US Eastern.
- Spotify playlist only. I thought about bringing the YouTube playlist back for this rankdown, but...not yet.
- As has been the case with the other Extended rankdowns, there will not be a tag list initially. When it does show up, it will include a mixture of posters who have already submitted for Journeys, posters that submitted for the first pop rankdown, and some posters that I feel like would be good additions to the Journey participant pool. Out of all of the rankdowns that I host, I welcome new participants here more than any other Journey rankdown.
- As always, if you would like to be tagged when I eventually do start tagging posters, make sure to let me know! And make sure to keep reminding me to tag you. I have forgotten to tag posters before...many, many times.
Here's the 40 songs that prefer Big League Chew!
The 1975 - It's Not Living (If It's Not With You) ABBA - Knowing Me, Knowing You a-ha - Crying in the Rain Amy Winehouse - Back to Black Annie - Chewing Gum Backstreet Boys - Everybody (Backstreet's Back) Bananarama - Robert De Niro's Waiting... The Beach Boys - I Get Around Britney Spears - Break the Ice Carpenters - We've Only Just Begun The Chills - Pink Frost Christina Aguilera - Come on Over Baby (All I Want is You) Dawn ft. Tony Orlando - Tie a Yellow Ribbon 'Round the Old Oak Tree Duran Duran - Come Undone Ellie Goulding - Goodness Gracious Elton John - Philadelphia Freedom Empress Of - When I'm With Him The Four Seasons - December 1963 (Oh, What a Night!) Foxes - Let Go for Tonight Frankie Goes to Hollywood - Two Tribes Grimes - Flesh without Blood Heaven 17 - Temptation Jackson 5 - The Love You Save Jennifer Paige - Crush Kate Bush - Cloudbusting Kimbra - Miracle Kylie Minogue - Spinning Around La Roux - In for the Kill Lights - Same Sea Madonna - Into the Groove The Mamas and the Papas - Monday, Monday Mariah Carey - The Roof Rina Sawayama - Cherry Sia - Breathe Me Sister Sledge - Lost in Music Spice Girls - 2 Become 1 Tegan and Sara - Faint of Heart The Ting Tings - Hands XTC - Generals and Majors The Zombies - Care of Cell 44

I'm picky when it comes to pop, but I see serious Poptart wonders on this list. I'm in.

I've decide to make an executive decision and extend the deadline. I'm moving it forward an additional week, because I want as many people to get the chance to submit as possible. (That, and I'm not sure how feasible revealing will be next weekend.) The new deadline is Sunday, November 17th.

Well, I'd like to thank the three of you who submitted for this rankdown today, despite me not tagging yesterday. I really need to get back into the spirit of doing these rankdowns.

We're hitting the home stretch, and we have enough submissions at this point that I can't imagine that I'm going to extend the deadline any further...so, if you're going to submit, do so soon!
(As always, if you want to be tagged, be sure to let me know! If you do not want to be tagged, also make sure to let me know. I would rather know not to tag you than keep tagging you unnecessarily.)
(JUST BARELY OVER) 48 HOURS UNTIL THE DEADLINE.

Okay, so here's the deal: I'm probably not revealing the first set tonight. The earliest that I will likely start reveals is tomorrow night. What does that mean? As you would expect, this means that there will be a 24 hour late submission period after the official deadline passes. I would still prefer that people not wait until the last minute to submit, but I do want you guys to keep all of this info in mind.
(SLIGHTLY MORE THAN) FOUR HOURS UNTIL THE DEADLINE.

I just want to make this clear with a tag post: 8pm US Eastern tonight is the final deadline. We will be starting reveals tonight. If you do not submit within the next four and a half hours, your submission will not be counted.
(MORE THAN) FOUR HOURS UNTIL THE (final) DEADLINE.

Quick, rapid-fire survey, anyone? (And I mean quick.)
- Top ten predictions? What about a winner?
- Bottom ten predictions? What about a #40?
- Have any high and low standard deviation hunches?
- What was your favorite discovery?
- Have any guesses as to what my #1 and #40 are?
