Re: The 90's album and song poll : voting and point system brainstorming
Also, maybe I did not understand the voting system, but isn't this way a little too restrictive in terms of the albums which will compete each other for the final rankings?

Spaz I have no time to explain, but please go the "Best albums of the 2000s poll" thread and you'll get the rules. Add the updating I did here and you'll get the picture
Re: The 90's album and song poll : voting and point system brainstorming
I like any system that raises the odds of an album getting in even though fewer people have given it a chance and listened to it. I would prefer the '2 reserved slots for best with only points from the highest X votes' thing, but the steeper scale is a step in the right direction.

Well I like the cultural quotas. Let's say it will be the Nicolas touch in this poll. Unless there is a strong opposition to it, of course

I know we don't need more alternatives, but short after I came up with the top 20 scoring for the previous 90s poll I wondered why I allowed points for more albums than what went to the finals - I don't think it makes much sense to give points to albums that I don't think belong in the final.
Therefore, maybe we should only give points to the top 15. That also means less work for the person who counts the scores. The simple change of the scores would be

I like that (not only because it is less work for me )
So Spaz' comment was accurate (we've spent so much time rating 20 albums that we'd forgotten about that)
the 2nd scale is good
