Re: Best of AM Top 100 Competition: Academy Style: Round 1.1
Flaw #1 found in this system:
It requires a certain amount of voters to really work. With the current amount of votes and format, Like a Rolling Stone would instantly win for being the only song to get more than one vote.
Solution:
I'm probably going to split the way the vote is counted. The same votes can be used, but the competition will be different. If so, I will split it as such:
1-40-41-80-81
20-21-60-61-100
These numbers corresponding to the ranking of the album/song. The smaller the pool, the more chance an entrant has of getting 2 or more votes, which is necessary for the system.

Re: Best of AM Top 100 Competition: Academy Style: Round 1.1
No surprise that the non-edgy BOTW worked its way to the bottom of the list for our beloved AMers.
By analogy to songs like ABACAB (b Genesis), I wondered about whether the "Bridge" could be a musical reference, e.g., the middle eight ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Song_struc ... lar_music) ).
While this interpretation is not widely held, I wondered in view of the lyrics, "I will lay me down." After all, it is difficult to imagine a literal bridge laying down itself. The laying down of lyrics and music for the middle eight bridge makes a little more sense in this context as far as I am concerned.
