AI's ROCK RANKDOWN PART 3
This is the final rankdown that once again includes 40 of 120 artists that I was a huge fan of at some point in my life. Within the list is one of their most popular songs that were not hits on radio. They range anywhere from 90's Alternative, Punk/Pop-Punk, Classic Rock, Synthpop/Indie Pop, Alt Metal/Post-Grunge, and the genre list can go on and on...
Give each song a thorough listen and get ranking! Please PM me your list of favorite songs from #1 to #40 in order from your favorite to your least favorite.
Please list each entry by Artist - Song. For example, if you were to rank "The Downfall of us All" at #17, you would enter it as "17. A Day To Remember - The Downfall of us All."
Hope that you enjoy listening and definitely comment below what possible discoveries or re-discoveries that you find.
This will be due on Tuesday February 11th at 11:59pm EST

I feel like it's way too early to tag people again as I just opened this rankdown the other day, but it is due "at this point" four weeks from today.
I do already have a list sent in from triliogy. I still have to work on my own list to be honest, so you have plenty of time to get yours completed and in.

Just doing my weekly reminder that your lists are due "at this point" three weeks from today!
I did get another list from gates and I finished my own, so we're up to three now.

Reminder that your lists if you're interested are due TWO WEEKS FROM TODAY.
There are still only three participants at this point. I was thinking of extending the due date to two weeks later to January 31st, so it's due after the year-end rankdowns submission dates. Should I do it?

Hey, all.
So... I'm going to extend the due date another two weeks until January 31st to give more people time to submit. There are a lot of other rankdowns due in the next few weeks that you all might be busy with.
Anyway, I did receive two new lists this week from sergejfordij and janinho to now have five participants. Thank you again, guys!

Just dropping by to give any interested notice that lists for this will be due in TWO WEEKS!
I did receive one new list this week from rowell to have six total participants at the moment. Thank you, sir!
With those six submissions, the #1 has changed four times. Unlike my last rankdown, I don't think there's going to be a huge difference with the top spots or a clear #1.

I almost forgot. Lists for this rankdown are due ONE WEEK!
I unfortunately did not receive any new lists over the last week, so there are still six participants at this point. If you're interested, please submit yours soon.

I've been debating extending the due date for this, but yeah... F it. I'm going to do it to give interested people another week or so to send in lists.
The new due date is Saturday February 8th by 11:59pm EST. That way, I can also hopefully start reveals that Sunday night.

Just a bit less than ONE MORE DAY to submit your lists!!!
As I said yesterday, if you would like to turn in a list and need more time, please let me know asap. I'm in absolutely no rush to close the deadline. Otherwise, I might as well close this on-time.
Also, If you would like not to be tagged, please let me know that as well.

Two more lists were sent in from newPoweR and Red. Thank you both very much! That makes 10 participants 
Now, here's the deal. I thought I'd have a free day tomorrow to work on writing some reveals and even post some tomorrow night, but of course I have a busy day instead with family. I'm expecting to be crazy busy at work on Monday and Tuesday as well.
So... with that being said, I will extend the deadline until Tuesday February 11th at 11:59pm. That gives you about 3 MORE DAYS to send a list if you're interested.
If you do happen to need a bit more time than that, I'm cool with it. Just shoot me a message. Thanks again to the nine of you that sent your list in by the original deadline!
Also, you're tagged and don't want to be anymore, I'll be glad to take you off. Just let me know.

With the extended due date, you now have 2 MORE DAYS to send in a list if you're interested in participating.
If you need a few more days after the deadline to finish, feel free to say so prior to Tuesday night below or send me a message.
Also, if you're tagged and I'm driving you crazy with new posts, I'll be glad to take you off the tags :)

Figured I'd post a final reminder that you have about 10 HOURS LEFT to submit your lists if you're interested.
If you're not going to finish by 11:59pm tonight and need more time, please let me know by then. I can wait a couple of more days if needed. Thanks!

With no one mentioning that they need more time, SUBMISSIONS ARE NOW CLOSED!
Lordeftones did also turn in a list today, so we'll have 13 participants.
I'll be out of town over the weekend, so I can likely start reveals early next week. Maybe earlier than that. We'll see.
Thank you to all of you that sent in lists. Your participation is very much appreciated!

Hello, everyone! Thank you to the twelve of you for participating in my third part of my rock rankdown series. Apologies for the wait. I will try to reveal about five or ten per night. Likely sometime between 9:00pm and 11:00pm EST depending on certain factors on a given night.
I hope that you had fun working on your lists and as always, it was interesting to watch the movements of specific songs change spots from certain people’s rankings.
Alrighty. Let’s do this! Numero Cuarenta!
Bottom 10s Eliminated: 9
Top 10s Eliminated: 2
Perfect Rankings: 3
Highest Participant Ranking: #10

Zebrahead fell apart pretty damn fast as our first victim to get axed at #40.
I’m actually pretty surprised that this was our overall bottom ranking and not a certain other song that we’ll see later.
They are much more known in Japan than everywhere else despite being from the States. I was a pretty big fan of theirs throughout the 00’s as their pop-punk/rap sound was different, but it’s quite repetitive throughout their discography and their lyrics are at times super cringy in certain songs. Unfortunately, while I’ll listen to a song of theirs on occasion, my interest in them overall has really dropped over the last five years or so.

This song brings back a LOT of memories for me and gives me nostalgia, but that's it. And nostalgia can only carry a song so far.
