I knew that it was Mark with my 1 2 3 for my 38 37 36. :( punches MarkThe funny thing is that you and Mark submitted within like an hour of each other so I entered Mark's rankings right after I entered yours. In my spreadsheet, it's like: Song Name
| Mark
| gravey | Point Sum
| Mark's #3/Gravey's #36
| 36
| 3
| x
| Mark's #2/Gravey's #37
| 37
| 2
| y
| Shake It Off
| 38 | 1
| 308
|
(numbers are inverted because I'm using inverse points) NOTE THAT THIS DOES NOT MEAN THAT MARK'S #3 IS ABOVE MARK'S #2!!! (or that gravey's #36 is above gravey's #37. I just typed that for demonstration) Not to spoil anything (I don't think it does), but the other two songs in this coincidence finished very close to one another. Did they finish close to Shake It Off? Well, we'll have to wait to find out!

Next up: although the standard deviation for this song is quite high, it's still not as high as the previous two songs... or the two songs following it (which have the second and fifth highest standard deviation in the entire game). Nobody loses a top 2 or a bottom 3 (nobody even has a #38 left...). One player, however, loses a #3, and four lose a top 10. Meanwhile, three players lose a bottom 10, one of which also lose a bottom 5.

chicken077 you did it reversed, I had SIO at 38 and Mark 1, lol. nah, I entered in all the rankings inverted on my spreadsheet, because I'm using inverse points haha (#1 song gets awarded 38 points, #2 gets awarded 37 points, etc. and #38 song gets awarded 1 point). The numbers in that table are point values, not ranks.

Next up! Final song for the day and the song that barely missed top 15 (by 3 points)! (if it's not Bad Blood, Leo vows to destroy this thread, and I'll let him lol). This song has the 5th highest standard deviation in the entire game. This was doing really bad on here until the last few days before the due date, where everyone that sent me their rankings toward the end put this in their top 15, if not top 10, saving this from a #25ish finish. Will it be Bad Blood? 4 players lose a bottom 10 and 4 others lose a top 10!

That's it for today, guys! Tomorrow, first of all, happy New Year's Eve to those that live in the Western Hemisphere and Europe! To those that live in Asia, it might be 2017 when you read this, so Happy New Year!!! 2016 was pretty damn horrible for me at least, and I'm excited to see what this new year has to bring... hopefully not another 2016 or even worse, hopefully not the first half of 2014 all over again... sorry I'm getting off topic... I'll probably post something like that somewhere tomorrow Anyways, tomorrow will be our reveal up to #11, meaning the songs in the top 10 will be revealed! I will, however, be going on a vacation to Alaska with my flight on 1/1 and returning on 1/5. I should be able to get #s 10-6 posted on 1/1 night once we arrive and after we watch the Northern Lights (it'll be pretty late though, because Alaska time is one hour before Pacific time, where I live now, so it's literally only 10:30 12/30 there right now. It's currently New Year's Eve for many of you already, and it's around 11:30 12/30 at my place. So yeah, I'll figure out a way :) Teaser for #15! Next up: Second highest standard deviation in the whole game right under "Mean" (which means it's above SIO and Tim McGraw!) 5 players lose a top 10, two of them also losing a top 3 and four also losing a top 5! On the other end, three players lose a bottom 10, with two players losing a bottom 3. What song barely slipped in at #15, beating out "22" by only 3 points? Tune in tomorrow to find out! (When it's 2017 for some of you but when it's still 2016 for me )

SIO finished lower than Mine :'( damn you narwhals and gravey Haha the two players with the 38-37-36/1-2-3 At least y'all did better than Leo on here... But seriously Leo rip man... I wish you best of luck that your top 2 (which is still alive - you have 3 top 10s alive I think) survives as far as possible... (although I know how far they'll last haha) and that Bad Blood dies as soon as possible... edit: actually never mind! you have 4 top 10s left which means you're not that bad off, but still... inb4 Leo's gonna destroy this thread lol

It's a good thing I didn't participate in this rankdpwn cause I f*cking hate Bad Blood so much comparatively and would've raged like Leo has been doing the entire time lol.
Although maybe it would've helped him out by lowering its finishing position having ranked it towards the bottom individually myself, haha.

"Everything Has Changed" - This song is very sweet. I love the video!!! I also think the lyrics are strong, and the vocals are great from both parties. Not really anything bad to say at all about this one! Definitely could have made it higher on the countdown. "Tim McGraw" - Meh. I don't wanna say anything that will get me into trouble with my best Pulse friend indulgecountry, so I will say just one word. Overplay. (Okay, maybe a few more words. Boring. Underwritten. Not nearly good enough for the amount of confusion it causes having Tim McGraw's name attached to the song... Lol! "Shake It Off" - This song definitely comes across as annoying at first, but I'll be damned if it isn't a major ear worm after just a couple listens! Still, I'm not super disappointed to see it out at this point. Should have beat "Bad Blood", but otherwise it has made it high enough. "Mine" - Somehow this song completely slipped through the cracks and I have never heard it before. I guess I didn't listen to the radio much in 2010 On first listen it is a solid song, but it doesn't tread any new ground for her. It is definitely eliminated at an appropriate time. I particularly enjoy the "careless man's careful daughter" line. Pretty clever, Ms. Swift! "22" - Ugh, this song is the WORST part of being 22... I was never so happy to have a birthday as I was when I turned 23 Lol! Believe it or not though, I had never heard this song in its entirety, but I certainly knew enough about it. I pretty much vowed to always hate it because literally everyone in the world thinks they are just SO clever when they sing this song to you when you are 22! It evokes my curmudgeonly side ;) That being said, on first listen just now I didn't hate it nearly as much as I thought I would! But still, I'm glad it's out.
