Thanks to DistrictTwelve's ranking...it's time for another B-B-B-B-BALLOT UPDATE!
More stats to consider: - First, let's start with Pulse's favorite segment,
- Again, no alarm with this, but we a lone tie at #17. - Each song in the top 17 has at least one top 10. - Each song in the bottom 23 has at least 1 bottom 10. - Every song except the #40 has passed the 80-point mark. - The top half of the list has every song having at least 200 points. - District's list caused some shakeup, particularly in the bottom 10.In the top 10, 1 song enters the top 5 for the first time. The #1 continues to stay ahead of the #2 as well, the gap being 30 points now. We also see 5 songs to either drop or rise at least 5 positions. With regards to the bottom 10, we see 1 song escape the bottom 2 for the first time since the fourth update. (i.e. newpoweR's list) Things continue to not do well for the current #39, as that song has not risen a single spot in the updates at all. On the other hand, we see 1 song escape the bottom 10 for the first time since my list. Another song escapes the bottom 10 after a couple ballots in that region. 1 song also rebounds in the bottom 10, nearly escaping it.

Some of them are, not all. I was recently deferred from a non-Ivy school despite having a 1520 SAT and 5s on 4/4 AP tests and I've been seething mad, because now I have to apply to more schools. I was planning on enjoying my break, but what was supposed to be a sure shot turned into a nightmare because I have to do all of this unprepared test scores ain’t everything, it’s those extracurriculars man for getting into a college, I wouldn't say that. Extra curriculars are much more important for getting a job after college. I did nothing in high school, and that never held me back. Then again, I only applied to three colleges and got into all three. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Then again, I only applied to three colleges and got into all three. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I had similar stats to Green, and I only got into 3/6 colleges because my extracurriculars weren’t as good as some others. Luckily, I got into the one I wanted to go to the most, so it all worked out, heh.

Mine was fairly easy to get into when I applied, but now it isn't as much as they boosted their credentials.

Thanks to Green Baron and his ranking...it's time for another B-B-B-B-BALLOT UPDATE!
More stats to consider: - First, let's start with Pulse's favorite segment... oh wait, change of plans.
- Each song in the top 22 has at least one top 10. - Each song in the bottom 24 has at least 1 bottom 10. - The #40 has yet to pass the 68-point mark. Meanwhile, the #38 and #39 are getting close to passing the 100-point mark. - The top half of the list has every song having at least 221 points. - Baron's list changed the top 5 a bit, as the #2 and #4 swap. That said, the lead between the #1 and #2 is still considerable. Only 1 song re-enters the top 10. Nothing new enters the bottom 10, but the #38 and #39 continue to distance themselves from the #40. Only 1 song takes a 5 spot movement, and it drops out of the top 20.

Thanks to peacebone and his ranking...it's time for another B-B-B-B-BALLOT UPDATE!
More stats to consider: - First, let's start with Pulse's favorite segment... yeah, it's back.
- We have ties at #17, #24 (3-way) and #31. - Every song but 7 (only 1 of these 7 is in the top 30) has at least 1 top 10. - Each song in the bottom 25 has at least 1 bottom 10. - The #40 is still getting no favors. That and the #39 are the only ones not to pass the 100-point mark, but the #39 will be there soon. - The top half of the list has every song having at least 246 points. - With peacebone's list, no new songs enter the top 10. However, the gap between the #1 and the #2 has shrunk dramatically. 2 songs enter the bottom 10, 1 for the first time. We also see 1 song achieve it's lowest rank yet, and another achieving it's highest ranking yet.

Finished! And like with The National, I'm ready to buy a couple of Arcade Fire CDs Had downloaded 10 songs of them over the past 5 years, but now I believe I must have the full CD experience. Solid discography!

More stats to consider: - First, let's start with Pulse's favorite segment...
- We can finally SOUND THE ALARM AGAIN! We have a tie at #7. We also have ties at #17 and #24. - Every song in the top 30 has at least 1 top 10 now. Yes, every song. - Each song in the bottom 26 has at least 1 bottom 10. - The #40 remains apart from the #39. - The top half of the list has every song having at least 257 points. - With Juanca's list, again no new songs enter the top 10. Now the #1 distances itself from the #2 again. No songs enter the bottom 10. Remember the song achieving it's highest ranking with peacebone's ranking? It goes up again with this ballot update. Man, talk about a comeback.

Thanks to Leaf and his ranking...it's time for another B-B-B-B-BALLOT UPDATE!
More stats to consider: - First, let's start with Pulse's favorite segment...
- SOUND THE ALARM AGAIN! We have ties at #4 and #8. Somehow, these are our only ties. - The top half of the list has every song having at least 279 points. - With Leaf's list, again no new songs enter the top 10. However, the gap between the #1 and #2 has shrunk again. Two songs also enter the top 5, both of which achieve their highest rankings yet. However, 1 song takes a four spot drop from the top 5. Again, no songs enter the bottom 10. Leaf boosted a few songs in the #37 to #39 region, but their positions remained constant.

#38 is a tough one, as we see the fourth highest standard deviation of the rankdown. Here, we lose three top 20s, two of which are top 10s, and 1 of these two a top 5.

I Give You Power is the band's failed attempt at reggae. I think that Supersymmetry is pale comparing to other songs anyway regardless of length. Regine's vocal in Electric Blue is too sharp, and I usually like her vocal...

Woohoo! I start things off with a P-P-P-P-PERFECT RANKING at #40! The only proper place for "I Give You Power" sadly. I Give You Power is the band's failed attempt at reggae. I think that Supersymmetry is pale comparing to other songs anyway regardless of length. Regine's vocal in Electric Blue is too sharp, and I usually like her vocal...Such is the case for Regine's vocals in general on Everything Now. I don't get it. I guess she did pull that sharpness out at first as well but this time around it seems more off-putting for whatever reason. I thought a certain other song from the current album would be out before "Electric Blue" but I see it has its fans.
ETA: Just saw Daryl's clue so its probably coming up now.

Nice start! I like Supersymmetry, a little long though.
What does the red line mean in the charts? I understand the blue line but I'm having trouble with the red line. If it represents the rankdown ranking shouldn't be constant for all the participants?
Never mind, I figure it out. It represents the evolution of the rankings as you were receiving submissions.
