I swear to god if anyone tanks Our Lady Peace... I'd assume that will be in my Top 20 at least. I can say the same no tanking threat for Story of the Year or I'll start a riot with Three Days Grace..... ::crickets:: I'll be here all night ;) I won't tank them if you promise not to tank Interpol.

Well... I can't promise that since I'm not a fan of them. I'm just joking about my previous post. If you all hate Story of the Year, by all means go tank them. I'd hope you're all honest about your rankings. By how each song sounds and not by the artist that created it. While I might not like Interpol, I might love a song of theirs and rank it Top 10 one day. Who knows.

Wow, y'all sure are fast. Within 15 hours of me announcing this rankdown, I've received five additional lists besides my own. With at least three more lists being sent besides my own, that means it's time for our first BALLOT UPDATE! This Ballot Update stars two Alt board regulars - Red and Lordef†ones - and a recently returning member in singingrulebritannia! ( Troy and Cody will have their lists included in the next Ballot Update.) - The #1 has changed with every list.
- Five songs have been in every top 10 so far. They are the current top four and #10.
- #1 is currently just two points ahead of #2. #2 is 13 points ahead of #3. The top 22 are within 100 points of #1.
- The bottom 14 have not yet reached 100 points, while the bottom 3 have not even passed 50.
- Three songs have been at #100 - after Red's list, there was an unbreakable tie at #99/#100, and the #100 changed to a different song since then.
- Six songs have not left the bottom 10 yet. #96 and the bottom two have not yet left the bottom 5.
- #100 is currently 14 points behind #99.
- The highest SD is currently at #32, while the lowest SD is currently at #100.
- As always, let's end with Pulse's favorite part of the Ballot Update...
We currently have ties at #11, #23, #25, #27, #29, #34, #38, #41 (three-way), #52, #54, #57, #59 (three-way), #63, #69, #77, #83, #85, and #87.
Of course, we're only four lists in. Lots can change throughout the submission process!

"Evil" and "Slow Hands" are really great Interpol songs, and if you remember where I ranked "The Hienrich Maneuver", then you have a pretty good idea of how high they will be. BTW, why isn't "Slow Hands" on the list? Wasn't that a hit?

Another three lists means that it's time for the second Ballot Update! This Ballot Update stars three more Rock board regulars - Troy, Cody, and wheatsquares33. ( Green Baron will lead off the next Ballot Update.) - Cody's list led to a brand new #1. That song still holds the lead by a pretty big margin - 50 points ahead of #2. The top 7 are the only songs that are currently within 100 points of #1.
- Three songs have been in every top 10 so far.
- With Cody's list, our #1 became the first song to reach 500 points. 15 songs have now reached that mark. Also, with wheatsquares33's list, every song now has at least 100 points.
- Troy's list led to a new #100, which has remained there (and is currently 14 points behind #99).
- As with our former #100, which held the lowest SD in the last Ballot Update? It now has the 15th highest SD.
- Five songs have not left the bottom 10 at all - those five songs are the bottom 5. Our #100 has not left the bottom 5 yet.
- Our highest SD is the same song from the last Ballot Update - coincidentally, it's at #32 again. The song with the lowest SD has changed, as mentioned above - it's currently at #97.
- As for position changes, two songs have gone up over 30 spots from where they were in the last Ballot Update. The biggest drop is one song that dropped 28 spots.
- And as always, it's time for Pulse's Favorite Part of the Ballot Update...
Sound the alarm! We currently have ties at #3, #6, #14, #16, #34, #36, #40, #64, #78, #82, and #93.

Submitted. I don't think I've ever submitted a list for one of these this quick, lol.
I'm not really sure how I'll do in this. I definitely have some unpopular rankings in mine, but I think my middle rankings might line up with the rankdown (as usual).

I'm in for this one!
I'm kinda disappointed I missed all the previous years' rankdowns - especially 2006 and 2007. I am not really active on Pulse anymore, so I'm looking forward to this.

Alright, this font should make it more official-looking. I already have three more lists...so it's time for our third B-B-B-BALLOT UPDATE!
Our next three lists come from another trio of Rock board regulars - Green Baron, Pollen, and @humanshazam! Let's see how things have changed...
- The #1 still hasn't changed. Its lead has dropped a bit, though - it leads by 30 points. Only the rest of our top 9 is within 100 points of it.
- Our three top 10 constants haven't left the top 10 yet.
- 48 songs are now at the 500 point mark. Our bottom 3, meanwhile, still haven't reached 200 points.
- Pollen's list led to a brand new #100, but @humanshazam changed it to a previous #100. It's currently just two points behind #99. #99 is six points behind #98, and it's not even close after that as #97 is 35 points ahead of #98.
- One of our former bottom 10 constants left the bottom 10 for the first time.
- Both our highest and lowest SDs have changed. The new highest SD is currently at #90 (the former highest fell to the 5th highest), while the new lowest SD is at #87 (and the former lowest is now the 15th lowest).
- As for movements, one song has gone up 26 spots since the last Ballot Update - it was in the bottom 20, and it's now getting close to leaving the bottom half. Meanwhile, our biggest drop since the last Ballot Update belongs to a song in the bottom half that fell 14 spots.
- I may be a bit tired, but I haven't forgotten about Pulse's Favorite Part of the Ballot Update...
Ties can currently be found at #24, #35, #49, #53, and #65!

I’m probably gonna be the last one to submit. I feel like with the 2006 RD I didn’t give all of the songs fair shakes because i only listened to them once. For this year i want to hear all of the songs enough that i can give feel confident about where I Place them.

Speaking of No Address, it's a shame that they never really broke out on Active besides that song. I remember seeing them open for Papa Roach and Trustcompany back in 2005. One of the members got into a major car accident on the way to the show, but still got there right in time to play while having I believe I broken leg or foot. They were pretty damn good too in their short set. I've respected them a lot since.

What's that, another three lists have been sent? That means it's time for another BALLOT UPDATE!
With this Ballot Update, I'd like to welcome Geometrical, who is making his first appearance in a Rock Rankdown! Joining him in this Ballot Update are two regulars - Daryl the Beryl and Walking Contradiction. Anyways, let's see what has changed with their lists...
- We have a brand new #1 with Daryl the Beryl's list! It currently holds the lead by 22 points.
- Our top 5 are the only songs that are currently within 100 points of #1.
- With Daryl the Beryl's list, our top 4 became the first songs to reach 1,000 points! Another five songs have reached that mark with Walking Contradiction's list. Meanwhile, 29 songs haven't reached 500 points yet (and our #100 still has not hit the 200 point mark, although it's close).
- With Geometrical's list, a previous #100 has returned to the #100 spot. It has not changed with either of the two lists that followed, and it's currently seven points behind #99. After that, #98 is 31 points ahead of #99.
- Another former bottom 10 constant left the bottom 10 for the first time during this Ballot Update, leaving us with only three left.
- The songs with our highest and lowest SDs have changed. The current highest SD is at #79, while the current lowest SD is at #99.
- The biggest increase in a single song's position since the last Ballot Update belongs to a song in the bottom 50 that has gone up 17 spots, while two songs have dropped 10 spots since the last Ballot Update (one in the top 40, another right around the middle of the list).
- As always, let's end with Pulse's Favorite Part of the Ballot Update...
SOUND THE ALARM! Ties can currently be found at #3, #19 (a three-way tie), #45, #53, #63, #67, and #92.

No replies in almost an entire week. I see we're all quite excited for this rankdown. Not to worry though, because I've finally gotten three more lists...so it's time for a BALLOT UPDATE!
First of all, before I get to the Ballot Update at hand, I would like to make an announcement - due to the new rule preventing banned members from participating in forum games, I've had to remove Green Baron's list from the results. The old Ballot Updates will be left as they are (too lazy to edit every single one of them, so several inconsistencies will be present), but his list won't be counted in the results, and the movements have been adjusted to reflect the removal of his list - although I will post his list at the very end of the rankdown for those who are curious (along with how it would have affected the results).
This Ballot Update stars another trio of Rock Rankdown regulars - alexcuse, janinho, and rowellfarm490! In addition, a few users who already submitted have made edits to their lists. Let's see what they've changed...
- alexcuse changed the #1 to a previous #1, and it has remained there for the rest of the Ballot Update. It leads by 21 points. It's not very close after that, as #2 is 46 points ahead of #3 - and the top 3 are the only songs within 100 points of #1.
- After accounting for the edits and removing Green's list, we now have a fourth song that has technically remained in the top 10 after every list, besides the other three that have been mentioned already.
- 23 songs have at least 1000 points. 18 songs have not reached 500 points.
- #100 has not changed since the last Ballot Update. It's currently 15 points behind #99.
- The songs with the highest and lowest SDs have changed again. The current highest SD is at #85, while our #1 currently holds the lowest SD.
- The biggest rise for a single song since the last Ballot Update belongs to a song that rose 9 spots, while the biggest drops are two songs that fell by 10 spots.
- And of course, it's time to end with Pulse's Favorite Part of the Ballot Update...
Ties can currently be found at #15, #22, #53, #72, #76, #88, and #96.

Little tip: just rank the songs as you go in a document (and maybe try rating each song, which is what I do). The preference revealer is time-consuming and can result in lots of inaccuracies, plus you can't save your progress while working on it. ;)

The preference revealer is time-consuming and can result in lots of inaccuracies, plus you can't save your progress while working on it. I tried doing it that way honestly but it seemed more difficult for me. It was easy to rank the songs I like, but the meh and bad stuff was harder to do that way. I still review my list after the preference revealer to make sure it makes sense, and I usually move a few things around for me. It just works well for me some reason.
