I'll probably be able to turn my list in today as I finished earlier this morning. This didn't feel as painful to complete as other Active Rankdowns, but still overall isn't easy to listen through.

Some of these lists are really testing my patience. I seriously contemplated just throwing one of them away. I don't know how you people deal with people tanking your favs. I guess the bright side is that I'll be the one upsetting you guys when these songs turn out lower than expected, instead of being the one upset.
With that said, two days left!

For me, the key is that I'm as unbiased as possible up until the moment the reveals begin. THEN, I let my bias show when the reveals begin. It's all fun and games until songs start getting revealed.

Working on my List Now
Edit: I'm officially announcing my attempt to sober up. I have NO idea why the fuck I put Too Drunk that high in Alt. I can only assume I was drunk.

Here comes the fourth, and likely final, ballot update - with rowellfarm490, dm2081 and Active newcomer @cagedjuggalo!
You're probably interested in the top action. #1 has not changed. It has held the #1 spot for four consecutive ballots, breaking #3s record of holding the top spot for three straight ballots. #1 has a 26 point lead over #2, which has a 30 point lead over #3. They are the only songs with more than 1000 points.
Three songs have been in the top 10 for the entire ranking process.
#100 is still #100. The bottom 3 are all under 200 points.
The highest STDEV changed constantly. Right now, it's at #86.
Lowest STDEV is a tie, at #8 and #93.
There are still a shit ton of ties.

DAMNIT
Was hoping the same chaos I brought in Alt, I coulda brought here. Thing is though there was SO MANY good songs, that I felt bad about even my lower 50

With that said, two days left! I think the effect would be different and depends on weather you are the host or the player. I know most of you now, so I'm used to it, but I still can't wrap my head around that year when Van Halen and Aerosmith were tanked. I honestly wasn't expecting that at all. I thought those songs were sure fire top 10. So much that I felt the confidence to put "Tattoo" as my #1 song. Since it was the first time Van Halen appeared on one of these rankdowns, that still remains to be the biggest shock I have experienced since I joined Pulse. I'm still in shock. Really.

If my #100 is not in the bottom 10 I lose my faith in all of you. It's not a cock rock song but it's perhaps the worst song I've ever ranked in one of these rock rankdowns.

If it's a song that sounds like it doesn't even belong anywhere near a rock list, then you and I might share the same #100 song?

I ranked it at #95 in the Alt rankdown so it's not the worst song I've ever ranked.

One day left!
To help entertain us before we start, I'm going to open up a survey. Forgive me Red for copy-pasting your questions.
- What songs do you think will be in the top ten? (If you want to take a stab at the #1, feel free to do so)
- What songs do you think will be in the bottom ten? (If you want to take a stab at the #100, feel free to do so)
- What songs will have the highest standard deviation?
- What songs will have the lowest standard deviation?
- What bands and artists do you expect to do well?
- What bands and artists do you expect to not do so well? (Besides Nickelback)

Only ones I think can make it are Saints of Los Angeles and Let it Die. Pretender might make Top 10 again but after winning Alt, I don't see Foo Fighters pulling a Drake
- What songs do you think will be in the bottom ten? (If you want to take a stab at the #100, feel free to do so) Addicted, Psycho, Amen and Too Drunk..., I would say songs everyone despised like Fake It and Pork and Beans, but I see them escaping Bottom 10
Skipping SD questions because I'm still trying to figure that out
- What bands and artists do you expect to do well? I think this will be the time A7X shines
- What bands and artists do you expect to not do so well? (Besides Nickelback) Atreyu, Puddle of Mudd

- What songs do you think will be in the top ten? (If you want to take a stab at the #1, feel free to do so)Well, based on the Alt ranking, "The Pretender", "Let It Die", and "Hammerhead" are mortal locks, even if someone tries to tank the first two. "The Day That Never Comes" should have a chance. Even with a song that I think could be polarizing, Chevelle should be in the whereabouts. "Already Over", "The Stone", "Discipline", "Shadow of the Day" all have a puncher's chance. I'll say that "The Pretender" gets tanked and one of "Hammerhead" or "Let It Die" is #1. - What songs do you think will be in the bottom ten? (If you want to take a stab at the #100, feel free to do so)"Too Drunk", "Bartender Song", "Amen", "Use Me", and at least one of the Puddle of Mudd songs should all be there, and I think "Too Drunk" will get "revenge" and be #100 here. I'm also hopeful that "Sorry" gets the bottom ten it deserves, but I'm not counting on it. - What songs will have the highest standard deviation?I'm never strong at guessing the highest SDs, but I could see "Empty Walls" having a similarly high SD compared to the 2008 Alt RD. Maybe "Fake It". Also, Killswitch Engage, as is tradition...unfortunately. There's also the obvious Nickelback choice. - What songs will have the lowest standard deviation?-- "Bartender Song" is a mortal lock for this, and probably "Good Times, Bad Times", too. - What bands and artists do you expect to do well?You might as well add "(Besides Foo Fighters)" to this. Avoiding the obvious choices, Alter Bridge could impress. I think Avenged Sevenfold will do much better, too. - What bands and artists do you expect to not do so well? (Besides Nickelback)Well, Buckcherry and Puddle of Mudd, but that goes without saying. I'll go for a curveball and say Airbourne and Motley Crue. I'm really rooting for one of each of their songs, but I don't see any of them doing well, save for maybe "Runnin' Wild".

- What songs do you think will be in the top ten? (If you want to take a stab at the #1, feel free to do so) Foo's, Offspring for sure. Could see Alter Bridge, Chevrolet, Stone Sour, or Red. - What songs do you think will be in the bottom ten? (If you want to take a stab at the #100, feel free to do so) Rehab, Kid Rock, Buckcherry, Hinder, Puddle of Mudd, the usual suspects. - What songs will have the highest standard deviation? Holy Diver, Hurt, Slipknot. - What songs will have the lowest standard deviation? Foo's, Offspring, Chevelle. - What bands and artists do you expect to do well? Foo's, Offspring, Chevelle, Stone Sour, Alter Bridge. - What bands and artists do you expect to not do so well? (Besides Nickelback) The usual suspects.

It's 12 AM in New York. I'll be closing submissions sometime later today, but there will be a dead zone in between where if I'm not too far along in the process of putting everything together, I can add your ranking to it.

I’m closing submissions now so I can work on the spreadsheet. If someone else has a pending submission, let me know soon or else you risk not being in the final rankings
