Post by Daryl the Beryl on Dec 7, 2016 1:26:42 GMT -5
So, I thought I'll do something similar to Sam's pulse lowdown ranking of the 2015 Hot 100 year end chart, this time with alternative songs. Some of us posted our opinions of the best and worst alternative songs of 2016, but what would it be like if all of our rankings are combined? Is "Trip Switch" really our most favorite alternative song of 2016 as suggested in the Alternative best/worst thread? So here's what you'll do:
1) PM me the top 100 alternative songs, all ranked to your preference. (e.g. if you like a song the most, rank it the highest and vice versa).
2) The points a song has will be totalled up based on an inverse point system. So if you rank a song #100, it gets 1 point, and if you rank a song #1, it gets 100 points. All the points from the responders will be totalled up.
3) The due date for submission is December 18, Sunday, 8PM Eastern Time.
4) ALL songs must be ranked. If you haven't heard all of them, no worries! Here's a playlist with all the songs + the other charters on the 2016 year.
If you just want to listen to the 100 songs, here's the playlist!
5) All your rankings will posted when I post a song in this thread.
6) No DZ will be created for this yet, I'll do one once the rock DZ is finished.
