This is dependent on getting enough lists in to be worthwhile. I will run it either way but if we only get a few lists, the sample won't be as meaningful and I'll do a pretty short countdown.
Deadline is Thursday February 10th. Countdown will be Friday February 11th.
***Album suggestions, recommendations, song samples welcome/encouraged in this thread. PMing lists to me is strongly encouraged vs. posting them here, so there is some drama in the big reveal.
Help in getting the vote out is appreciated.
