As you are well aware this helps reduce all the mistakes caused by cross-posting. Additionally many people use their telephones or iPads and it can be a challenge to post/edit correctly/quickly.

@theoldlady... your list is not right... @CaptainChorizo was faster than me.

Sorry... I'm terrible busy... I have to go.

Edit:

@MariNisialooks the list is correct now, to include the @CaptainChorizo ‘s choices and your own choices — plus corrections/updates of the previous errors you found. Should be ok now hopefully. Cross posting happens a lot. No worries. Thanks for keeping a good eye out here for all the errors!

If you get ninja'd, you get ninja'd. Deal with it and move on.

What's your problem with it?  There's no race to get your post in first.

A placeholder helps to avoid simultaneous posting.  It can easily take a minute to copy a long list, paste it, delete the previous poster's scores, add your own and make the necessary adjustments.  It provides a little breathing space, that's all.

Much as I also appreciate Beat Dis, I agree. Better than Salt-N-Pepa too if you ask me.

I know it won't help much but Bobby McFerrin's score — Don't Worry Be Happy  is wrong

So the song should have 3 more points, I'll post my list correcting it
Sorry if I missed anything
