Okay, so here's the next round of stuff. Same voting structure, except I need to add some stuff:
1) Please try to keep formatting consistent because it makes it easier for me to tally votes
Please number stuff like how I numbered the first point above. Do not use periods or anything like that
When putting your choices in a list, do the following:
Band - Album
Do not use other markers (like a long hyphen or a back slash or things like that). If an album has periods in it (like R.I.P. for Coroner), take them out (so it will read RIP)
Do not use ampersands (&)
Please also make sure the album title is complete and correct. I had someone choose:
Exodus - Bonded in Blood
which isn't an album they did
2) Keep flaming to a minimum
3) You are allowed to change the order twice. This is because every time you change it, I have to redo the spreadsheet. Make a decision and live with it! (I'm looking at you, TechBarb)
THIS NEXT ONE IS IMPORTANT
4) Please rate all 20 albums. If you don't, I'm not counting your submission.
Feel free to rate them if you only want to do 15 as it will add to discussion, but it's going to skew the averages if you only do 10 out of 20. I did it for the death metal series because it was a dry run and I wanted to see what worked and what didn't and not having a full list can be material to the outcome.
Here are the top 20:
Tiebreaker was the number of votes an album received
Here are the losers. There are probably duplicates and it's not my fault if there are:
Voting closes a week from today unless the thread kinda dies then I'll call it sooner.
