Re: History of AM forum polls

Awesome sticky. I was just going to search for Bracketology.

Re: History of AM forum polls

It's really cool to put all these together, but you spelled my pseudonym wrong. Maybe I should change my name, lol.

Re: History of AM forum polls

Dammit! I'll replace this thread with a corrected one soon.

Any other comments on this summary?

Re: History of AM forum polls

You don't have some kind of admin function to edit posts?

Re: History of AM forum polls

No, I'm afraid not. I can lock, sticky and delete whole threads, but that's it.

Re: History of AM forum polls

Maybe you should consider putting up phpbb or some other free forum with more administrative funtions.

Re: History of AM forum polls

And lose everything that's here...?

Re: History of AM forum polls

You have a point, I don't think it's possible to convert these posts to a new forum.. If I find out a way (besides manually copying every post) I'll let you know.

Re: History of AM forum polls

Unless there's an export buton somewhere that's not spoken about anywhere on their website I think we're out of luck.

Re: History of AM forum polls

OK, I shuld remember to tick "disable smilies"...

Re: History of AM forum polls

Looks pretty complete to me.

Re: History of AM forum polls

You could keep an archive of this forum.

Re: History of AM forum polls

Individual Lists from 2008 song poll

Sorry if this is posted already, but I can't find it and I reference it a lot.

Countdown:
part 1
part 2
part 3
top 10

And all details, including individual lists, packed together in a spreadsheet!

Re: History of AM forum polls

Just wondering (I'm still new here): are these forum polls gonna be calculated into the official AM rankings, and/or STEFAN's end-of-year list? Or are these just being done for fun?

I think it's a cool idea in either case.

Re: History of AM forum polls

Sean, forum polls are fan-generated (obviously), hence not eligible to be added to AM. It's certainly a lot of fun to compare our results to the site rankings, though!

Re: History of AM forum polls

This has been just for fun, and will continue to be! We (at least most of us) are not critics, that's why the lists won't be included at AM.

Re: History of AM forum polls

Is anyone able to provide me with the sort of formula that was used to calculate the "Top 100 albums of all time (2008)" list? I'm curious as to how they were matched up.

Re: History of AM forum polls

Some of us are slower than others... Almost four years ago someone suggested that we should make our individual best 100 lists. And now - finally - I managed to complete mine!

Re: History of AM forum polls

I'm surprised the 80s albums and song polls aren't in here.

Best of 80s Albums

Best of 80s songs
Part 1 (100-51)

Part 2 (50-1)
