I really like the two-stage polls we have done for songs (nomination round and final scoring), so I hope we'll do that again.

Thanks Nassim for taking the 2010 album poll

after all, I'm with the pazz & jop format for albums

I'll take the EOY songs list.

Whatever format for tabulating the votes is fine by me.

Great Jackson

Now all we need is someone to take the 2000s decade poll next year, from february to december. It's a long run job but it's a great job.

I think I'm going to do the following format for the songs poll.

In round 1, everyone nominates 10 songs. Each person's top 2 songs automatically make the second round, while the other eight songs must be nominated by at least one other person in order to make it. This way ensures everyone's absolute favorite songs make the list in addition to the consensus favorites.

In round 2, everyone gets a certain number of points to spread among up to 20 of the nominated songs. This would be pretty much identical to the way this part of the poll was run last year.

If anyone has any other thoughts or suggestions, comment here.

Nobody objected to my proposed system and Nassim started the albums poll, so I'll make the thread for the EOY songs poll tomorrow.

You may want to consider capping the number of songs eligible for the second round. If a lot of people participate there could easily be 60+ songs in Round 2, which could make participating more difficult and increase the bias against lesser-known songs.

I'd rather keep the old system of nominating 20 songs and keeping those with most nominations, first because I would rather vote for 20 songs than 10 and also because that would avoid black sheeps in the 2nd round !

But I'm fine in both case ^^
