REVISED:I have a class I need to go to, but I'll get you kiddies started with the first group of albums. As I did last year, I compiled a top thirty with the only rule being that you needed at least three votes to qualify. That rule only impacted two albums (Cruel Summer and Centipede Hz). Let's roll, you guys.

You should've given it points. Then it would be on the list.That's how I felt about Centipede Hz
I laughed.Too late to get my list in???
I like that the vast majority of albums we submitted only received one vote.
Ha. The funny thing is that I figured this would be your first comment. I know you pride yourself on that ability to subvert the tastes of this forum.The perk of Peef failing to include my list is that I can see that 9 out of the 15 albums on my list were nominated solely by me.
