The lists have started picking up again after the usual midway stasis. I now have another four lists, and I'm typing in Georgia font, so you know what that means...it's time for another BALLOT UPDATE!
This Ballot Update stars Web, alexcuse, and aerodynamite. (@doinktheclown has sent as well, and his list will be included with the next Ballot Update if I end up doing another one.)
-#1 has not changed, and its lead has increased slightly since the last Ballot Update. It's ahead by 78 points right now. -#2 is still the only song within 100 points of #1 (although #3 happens to be 101 points behind it, lol). -The upper half of the top 10 still tends to have big gaps in between, but the lower half still has generally smaller gaps. Just one point separates #6 and #7, another four separate #7 and #8, and five points separate #9 and #10. In addition, there's only two points between #10 and #11. -One of our last three top 10 constants fell out of the top 10 at one point during this Ballot Update (although it rebounded back into the top 10), leaving us with two remaining constants (currently at #1 and #3). -28 songs currently hold at least 1000 points. -17 songs have not reached 500 points yet. -The same pair of songs continue fighting it out for #100. The #100 changed to the other half of the pair after Web sent before switching again with aerodynamite's list. #100 is currently 20 points behind #99. -Another former bottom 10 constant escaped the bottom 10 for the first time, leaving our bottom 3 as the only remaining bottom 3 constants. -The song with the highest SD still has not changed, and it's currently at #67. However, the song with the lowest SD has changed...and the lowest SD now belongs to our current #100. -And let's wrap things up with Pulse's Favorite Part of the Ballot Update:
Ties can currently be found at #21, #31, and #38.

I want to put this thread back on my Participated bar, and I miss when people would discuss stuff prior to the reveals sooooo...I just thought of something. There are, in particular, two songs on this list that ought to do very well, based on those artists' past rankdown history with lesser songs. I'm not saying where I put them, but, yea. I have pre-emptive words for the tankers if they don't. www.youtube.com/watch?v=RWl2QsTosfk&t=27m8s

Just submitted. My ratings are as followed:
5/5 - 6 songs
4.5/5 - 8 songs
4/5 - 28 songs
3.5/5 - 23 songs
3/5 - 23 songs
2.5/5 - 8 songs
2/5 - 4 songs
I believe this is the only rankdown that I didn't absolutely hate anything to give it a 1/5 or 1.5/5.

Muse vs killers round 3 is an interesting: which song will rank higher? both are their American breakout songs. I hope they are not 1 and 2 again and will give some other bands a chance at the top 2

There's a total of 42 extras for this year, so I'll be posting 14 in each set - one set this morning, another set later tonight, and a third set on Saturday night. The first set begins with an 80s cover (of a song originally by Wall of Voodoo)! MEDIABASE EXTRA

We'll be ranking this on Active, and I'm assuming it would have been an even stronger #100 candidate over here than it already seems to be on the Active list. MEDIABASE EXTRA

And finally...some good ol' British rap. I'm surprised this even got enough airplay to make the top 50. Would've been in my top 20, though it's not my personal favorite from them.MEDIABASE EXTRA
