 Topic: top 100
Posted: September 20 2006 at 19:46 |
|
I do not care at all. My own top ten or hundred are completely different from this list, and, moreover, it is changing constantly. As to top 100 as presented here, I believe that more than a half of the albums listed are not even essential.

I personally don't care a bit about the top 100. I only know if I were to decide what the top 100 albums are, the list would be VERY different.
but since the top 100 exist, I suggest an amendment: it is quite boring that the same artists appear in the top 100 again and again; nothing but fanboys (and perhaps girls) at work here voting the albums of their favorite artists up. so my suggestion is: allow only one album per artist to be in the top 100. then that list would at least make some sense, and the fanboys and -girls would be controlled a bit

Agreed. I'm interested on the top 100 as a whole, because it gives a certain artist/album exposure, but I don't care that much about which album makes the top 10, or which position it gets.

I don't care about the ranking of the albums, but I like the fact that most albums present really deserve to be in it, so it's a good quick scan for what the good albums are.
of course the lesser known albums are not present, but that's the challenge, to find those gems and make them your discovery instead of just goinng with the popular choices.

I'm happy everytime I notice that VdGG and Gentle Giant climbs, and Dream Theater/Riverside/Areon drops. So I guess I do care a bit.

I don't really care. However, it would be fun if the admins messed with
it a bit for April Fool's Day, so that some Genesis album of the '80s
or something similairily loathed appeared as no. 1.

Funny, I'm on the oposide opinion  I don't realy care that much, but I'm happy that CTTE is not nr 1 and that the dark side is that high.
I use the list more as a guidline than the unquestianable truth, but it's always nice to see that your favorite albums are being apriciated.
Now, to get Foxtrot and Snow Goose higher....

It's all subjective - not to mention political - so I really don't care... though I really like all of the top ten, my order would be slightly different. It's quite fun watching for instance Yes - CttE plummet down the charts as some Genesis and Pink Floyd fans vote tactically - it's just like a progressive Pop Idol!

I normally don't pay any attention to it unless it's brought up in one of the forums. Then I may check over for a peek.
