These are the rules:

  

  • Each song starts with 20 points.
  • You can vote once a day. Since we all live in different parts of the world with all sorts of different timezones, please add a date at the top of your votes to avoid any type of confusion (e.g. 18/9/24, 18th of September, Wed 18 Sept, etc.). 
  • Each day you can give 4 points and subtract 6 points to any song on the board, you can split your points between as many songs as you want. Please use all of your points, unless it's a game ending turn.
  • NEW RULE Until the first song is eliminated in each round you cannot give more than 50% of your score (+2/-3) to a single song.
  • Placeholder posts are allowed, but if you don't edit your votes within 5 minutes, then the next person can go and do their votes.
  • Consecutive votes are not allowed.
  • Before voting, please listen to the songs of each round and vote according to your own opinions, don't vote for songs because they're high/low on the board or because of your opinions about the artist, only the song matters.
  • Make sure you copy and paste the most recent voter's scoreboard when you take your turn to score. For your own ease, ‘paste as plain text’ to get rid of the previous poster’s formatting. Then, delete their +/- scores, add yours, adjust the song’s points total and make your scores bold

* The Wikipedia entry for Yesterday states that it was originally released as an E.P. in 1966, which reached No 1, there is no citation for this and I have been unable to verify this. The Official Charts website (officialcharts.com) does not have an entry for the Yesterday E.P. only the listing for this single in 1976, so for the purposes of this game this is the initial release.

1970-1974: 44 songs, 10 go through to the final. 
1975-1979: 42 songs, 10 go through to the final.

 

I think that covers everything, so with no further ado, let's begin the  Killing :2guns:and Saving :angely:

I'll admit, Pipkins was added by me as a joke because I couldn't find a damn thing I liked from 1970 (well, 6-10 anyway). But I can't bring myself to vote for this novelty tripe once we get to the sharp end. Had we had the ability to pick two from '74 or '75 instead it wouldn't ever have been there. Doesn't say a lot for 6-10 in 1970 mind.

 

Ok, fucked by the length of time to edit these again. I'll re-edit this to allow for bendee  (badly formatted as it is). Don't go adding anymore in the meantime or I'm throwing the toys out the pram and doing something else..........

 

Edit to edit.  I'll post later, spent 20 mins on this and got nowhere.

Actually nvm, just post away. I cba this takes far too long when this happens. Ignore mine (I'll remove it)_ and I'll do it later or something.

I know I didn't add 'posting mine' first time around, then when I do add something it gets ignored anyway. I know I have a bad habit of only voting once in a while but It needs a spreadsheet where you can just add or subtract your entry to speed it up (this is only half a joke :))

Can you just fix this, using mine and @Bendee87 votes? And perhaps take away all of @Toast and she can vote again later?

 

Cat Stevens - Morning Has Broken -3
John Lennon and the Plastic Ono Band - Power to the People -3

 

The Temptations - Just My Imagination (Running Away From Me)  +2

It happens sometimes, especially when lots of people are trying to respond to the same thread. Some players will use placeholder posts to let everyone know that they are working on their scores.
