Guest neurogen Posted October 24, 2012 Share Posted October 24, 2012 Dude Im not blaming anyone. It was fail due to too few votes. Thats it. Shouldnt have ended it with only 1 or 3 votes of each. Should rather end with "sorry not enough votes" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should rather end with "sorry not enough votes" You may be right. It really saddens me that such few people voted. I wish we could redo it and find a way to attract more voters.

I wish we could redo it and find a way to attract more voters. yes very sad indeed. :/ and i do appreciate your work on the poll - thats not why im upset its that you ended it before enough votes. just so we are clear and of course, mainly im upset due to the lack of votes, that is the real problem of course. sorry for my bad manners earlier Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drosophila Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 Just an enquiry.. the excel sheet(s) used to calculate the results, do they still exist Rotwang? I was thinking that was the really time consuming part...(??!) Of course if more votes are placed more releases is needed to be added, but only if it is real success (many people voting) will that mean many more releases (my guess)... so maybe it makes sense to open/continue the same vote and collect for a year or so?! The excel sheet could be continuously updated release-wise, maybe a google document that the mods can edit!? Just an idea... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rotwang Posted October 25, 2012 Author Share Posted October 25, 2012 Just an enquiry.. the excel sheet(s) used to calculate the results, do they still exist Rotwang? It's a Gnumeric spreadsheet rather than Excel, but yes. I was thinking that was the really time consuming part...(??!) Yes, it took way longer than I thought it would. Frankly if I were to do another poll I wouldn't use a spreadsheet. I'd knock something together in Python instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drosophila Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 Oh I see... maybe it would easer to make a discogs account, add the releases in there and finally when judgement day arrives just export the data and add the votes... the only data that would be missing is the release country which frankly is of very little importance.

Rotwang Posted October 26, 2012 Author Share Posted October 26, 2012 Frankly if I were to do another poll [...] I'd knock something together in Python instead. I have now knocked something together in Python. If enough people want the poll reopened I'm willing to count votes again, since it should be considerably easier now. Personally, I wouldn't expect to receive significantly more votes if we do reopen it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thefreewave Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 I don't supposed anyone has ever tagged the results with subgenre tags have they? Uptempo and Dowtempo doesn't do a whole lot when there's better subgenre tags that can be used.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
