These aren't actually the critic lists of Soundi. It's just a writing where one of critics asks readers and others to tell them favorites of the year. The first list is the favorites of that one editor.
I don't have the magazine right now right here but I remember that National was the first. I will send the list as soon as I get the magazine again.
According to a number of Finnish music sites I checked via Google, these appear to be the actual Soundi lists for 2010:
