Lamest Entry Ever

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

I have now done a huge spreadsheet with all the Pazz and Jop data, and am prepared to do a gigantuous tournament poll by a complex method of my own choosing. I think this will be quite entertaining, as it's a wider range of music covered than the Now poll winners one.

Anyway you're getting one whether you like it or not. The question is, what do we do about the 06 entries? Do we wait a month or so until P&J under its new management comes out? Do we instead go with the self-claimed spiritual heir of the old P&J poll, Jackin Pop - OR do we ignore both and start the tournament polls tomorrow?

There is no option for "stop wasting your time doing polls". I find it oddly relaxing and quite therapeutic.

[Poll #907296]
