Our first tag session! Isn't it lovely?
Wait, why am I contemplating a post on an internet forum like it's a human being?

I made some discoveries. I do like my top 50, until 80 they were listenable and the last 20 were either bad, mediocre, horrible, unlistenable garb.

I figured there'd be no better way to start the new year than doing the Alt rankdown, so I've been working on this since yesterday.
Just sent my list in; I guess it was better than I expected...? (I really love my top songs, so I may be biased.) Can't wait for the reveals to start.

Hey, no changes to the graphics this time! Have I found the balance?
(Now, watch as I make changes next time. I'm never totally satisfied.)

Heh, started work on 2019 before the holiday break.
Saw the deadline on this was earlier and shifted priorities. Couldn't really work on it until today, but I'm working at it.
Should make the deadline, but I've already noticed a few surprises as I approach 20 songs so far.

I may need an extension a couple days back because I’ll be busy with school Okay, so here's the problem (and, really, I should have brought this up a day or two sooner): I literally cannot give an extension, at this point. There's a couple of reasons for that:
1) I am going to be busy the weekend of the 18th. I'm not really going to be available much at all from the 18th until the 20th. The current deadline allows for everything to be completed before this busy weekend. Now, I could push the deadline back enough to where I'm still able to find the workload balance between me and peace, but there's another problem... 2) I am hosting another rankdown series on the rock forum, and the deadline for the first part of that series is the 20th. Could I push that back? Yes. I would just have to push back the deadlines of the other rankdowns in the series. Ultimately, this is manageable. There's one more thing, though... 3) The current deadlines for the other rock chart rankdowns are the 18th and the 24th. Why are those important? Because the deadlines are sequenced, and, the way things are currently set, when one rankdown finishes revealing, the next rankdown begins its reveals. If I push the deadline back, either the other hosts could have to push their deadlines back (and potentially cut into their busy schedules), or peace and I would be revealing at the same time as another one of the YE rock chart rankdowns. This is something I would really like to avoid.
I am normally flexible with deadlines, and circumstances may still change, but I may not be able to offer an extension this time.

I've been wondering what kind of listening methods you all use to do these. Do you just go down the list or skip around?
I could never just go up and down the list and this is a rough list to sit through. The good thing is the list doesn't bunch up more than 4 travesties together, so it gives you time to breath. I like to skip around the list, so I don't become numb, and end up sticking 5 songs that sound exactly like each other together. The music videos always help.
Another of my methods is by inserting other songs in between from better Alternative rock and even pop years. Like a an intermission between each song. But I'm 80's weak so I just end up putting on an 80's playlist and putting off the Rank down for another day.

I go straight through, but on a difficult rankdown ::cough:: (Active), I'd recommend either putting it on shuffle or listening to other music in between a block of songs.

I usually just listen in order aside from any potential youtube only songs if they exist, I've thought about listening on shuffle but I don't usually listen to rankdown lists all at once and if I came back from a break to shuffle it again I'd probably get a few songs I've already ranked in shuffle then lol

Short deadline... but I suppose if I start right now, I might be able to finish in time. Wish me luck!

I always break the list up into chunks and listen through once, sorting the songs into categories as I go. Then I go back and run each category through the preference revealer and once I paste the sets together, I make final edits and submit.

That makes sense, if that other chart was due mainly to streaming. Early last year it got played frequently on web radio station slacker (LiveXLive)’s weekly alternative countdown, so I assumed it was also played on terrestrial radio.

Finally sent. I sat on my list this go round because normally I send right away and make Red take my 10 edits before the deadline, so now I don't have to edit it after changing it a ton over the past weeks.
I honestly don't mind songs until getting into my bottom 20. Except, that's where it starts to fall off a fucking cliff in terms of quality to me.

Again, if you haven't gotten started by now, now would be a good time to start. If you need a little more time on Saturday, I may be willing to grant an hour or two beyond the deadline, but a) that's about all I can offer and b) you need to let me know soon.
