Can we have an extra day? Thought it ended on Sunday night like it usually does, I can probably get it done by mid Sunday latest.

I have a quiz at the deadline, so I'll start the rankdown on Monday night (9PM Eastern). Lists will be accepted until then, but the lists must still be made ASAP. A survey will be done after my quiz, as was in the last alt rankdown.

Can you please tag me in the results Daryl the Beryl? I won't have time to do this sadly, but my top 3 probably would've been "Everybody Talks", "Paradise", and "Shake It Out" with "Colours" and Absolute Zero being honourable mentions.

You can actually start without me, I'm probably not gonna have time to finish my list today and I don't want to hold things up :)
I will say that this was a great year for alt and I'm still glad I listened to the playlist as I made a few nice discoveries. This year also had a great balance between heavier stuff and indie stuff, this is about the ratio I wish alt would return to although there are still some active crossovers which I don't think belong (sorry, Absolute Zero is not remotely alt even if Stone Sour kind of is).

Honestly this is the last year where both the good and bad active crossovers both coexisted on Active, so I don't see the "pop posters" argument being that much of an issue this time round as compared to the other alt rankdowns.

Just sent my list. Overall it was a decent year, but 2013 was much better for me. My #1 was an easy pick and I really hope it does well on here even though it's not really an Alt song. I'm pretty sure that my #100 won't be in the bottom 10 this time. I don't think that I'll do well in this Rankdown compared to the last one we did, but I hope my bottom 10 will clear up soon.

My #1 and #2 are so close it's almost impossible to pick, though I think my #2 may be better, it was already in 2013 rankdown.

I hope I don't get roasted with my bottom 10 :x As long as your bottom 10 doesn't include "Midnight City" (and based on 2013, I know that another certain song won't be close to your bottom 10), we'll be okay.

Sent. It was so difficult to choose between my #1 and #2. This was the first time my #100 (and #99) was a new discovery. One act doubled up in my top 10, and two doubled up in my bottom 10. My highest discovery was my #24.

I honestly have no idea how this one will go as there are plenty of active songs on the list that I don't know if they are liked or not.
1) What songs do you expect to be in the bottom 10? I would be surprised to see Narcissistic Cannibal & Count Me In escaping the bottom 10. Also, I can Gotye's Eyes Wide Open placing low along with the Dirty Heads songs. 2) What songs do you expect to have high standard deviations? Little Black Submarines, It's Time, Absolute Zero, Midnight City(?). 3) What songs do you expect to have low standard deviations? Probably the songs that will place in the bottom 10. 4) Which artist(s) do you expect to dominate this rankdown? I think that Chevelle will do quite well, probably Foo Fighters too. 5) Which artist(s) do you expect to flop in this rankdown? Dirty Heads, Coldplay, Grouplove. 6) What songs do you expect to be in the top 10? Madness, Take A Walk, Little Talks. 7) Which songs will finish higher than in the 2013 rankdown? (if they were in 2013 as well) Kill Your Heroes, We Come Running, Madness, Ho Hey. 8) Which songs will finish lower than in the 2013 rankdown? (if they were in 2013 as well) Little Black Submarines.
