Pulse Rankdown: 2018 Year End Alternative Chart (WE'RE DONE)

[Leo ✔]

P-P-P-PERFECT RANKING!!!

[Zach]

Nooo not Florence *cries profusely*

[maine]

"Hunger" is kinda bland coming from Florence.

[Deleted]

Meh, I don't care at this point what goes out of my top 10, just as long Rex makes top 5.

Also, I don't know about Florence being out below Merton?

[SHOOTER]

Yas! Only 4 left to clear my bottom-half.

You have way more hope in this outcome than I do


I'm glad Florence is still able to get sizeable Alt hits, and not just get relegated to AAA

[peacebone]

Another reveal, another song with 36 top half rankings. #24 spent almost every ranking in the top 25, and it actually got fairly close to the top ten multiple times before being pushed back later on. 21 top 25s are lost, and though only six can be found in the top ten, half of those rankings are top fives. This song also has seven bottom 30s, including two bottom tens.

[maine]

This is super catchy, especially for this kinda song. Not sure what there is to dislike about this. Great song all around.

[peacebone]

There is no shortage of high or low standard deviations tonight, and #23 marks our first "big" one: the sixteenth lowest SD. While this song was placed in the top half by all but fourteen participants, a mere 15 ranked it top 25, and a scant five ranked it top ten...though one poster is losing a top five. Despite the low SD, three bottom 20 rankings will leave us, with one poster also clearing their bottom ten.

[maine]

Can we get rid of the lone terrible song that's left?

[singingrulebritannia]

Other than my 50 that was my last non-top 30 lol

[SHOOTER]

They've been so hit and miss but this was a hit for me.

[peacebone]

We now ZOOM into the other direction with the eleventh highest standard deviation at #22. This time, all but thirteen posters will lose a top half ranking, but the real telling numbers here are higher up: 24 top 25s, 19 top 20s, a new rankdown-high 13 top 10s, five top 5s, and one, big, shiny #1. But the opposition here was fierce: Nine bottom 30s, six bottom 20s, and two bottom 10s. One is a fairly low bottom five.

[House Lannister]

Could have had a better start, but could be way worse.

I think I liked Florence's last era better.

[Alex1901]

Finally a perfect ranking!

[singingrulebritannia]

This is my 2 or 5

Aaaaaaand now my 50 is my only non-top 25 lmao

[Deleted]

lol I thought this was a lock for top 10

[Leo ✔]

really surprised this missed top 20!

[fearlessarrow]

*Logs onto Pulse*

First thing I see: “Always Ascending”

Maybe I shouldn’t have logged on

[House Lannister]

I'm honestly not crazy about this finishing better than Do You Want To.

[Red]

I knew this was coming, and I still wasn't ready for it.

This was in the top 20 for so long...

[peacebone]

#21 is one of the last songs to not spend time in the top ten, though it did get very close at one point. 22 top 25s will be lost, with ten more top 10s falling by the wayside. Chief among those top 10 losses are the four top fives that are being swept away, a couple being very high top fives, indeed. Most of this song's lowest rankings are of the bottom 20/30 variety, but two bottom ten rankings will also be shown off to the viewing public.

#79 Alt 2013 (Right Action)

Remember when this happened

We're past this phase which is cool
