It's a shame Sad Punk wasn't eligible. That list was possibly my favorite DI entry yet. I couldn't get her links to work, so I made a YouTube playlist for it, and even the damn videos had coherence to them.
So that brings the hardware count to:
Phanan - 3 wins (3, 4, 9)
LemonMelon - 2 wins (5, 7)
LMP - 2 wins (1, 2)
Mr. V - 1 win (6)
Screwtape2 - 1 win (8)
Well done, worthy adversary. We will meet again.
I was looking over the other results threads to see how this one matched up to the others as far as traffic (it surpassed VII, didn't come close to VIII, which I think devolved into a bitchfest towards the end) and I noticed you came in second twice in a row. I'm glad you won this one, you'd have been the Buffalo Bills of DI otherwise. Now that we're past the results, feel free to use this thread to discuss plans for DI 10.
I suspect I am doomed to forever meander in the top 5, but never win.
FWIW, ElMel, you did have the highest # of Top 5 placements, correct?
Nice work, everyone.
You will never have last place, it is forever mine!
I intend to return to your list in a few years when I get over this anti-classic rock phase I'm in. I guess my list sort of reflects it but I'm ... I don't know, exhausted by it? Who knows.By three, had Bonnie got her list in. A handful of people got some kind of ear disease from my list, I guess.
Nice work, indeed. We had lots of fresh faces this time and they generally did very well. Can't wait to see what DI10 brings us. Probably more Tame Impala.
You will never have last place, it is forever mine!

The whole thing is in flux right now, which is why it's good we're taking another year or so off.
We're not doing this for another year??
Shit, I could do this like every few months.
This pretty much. I can honestly say I enjoyed almost each list I listened to.Ranking these was hard. I think my top 3 and last five were solidly how I felt about them, but the order in which everyone else in between fell wound up being almost arbitrarily based on what my fleeting opinion was at the moment I sat down to actually rank them. I could probably listen to everyone's list a second time and come up with a different opinion. Hell, I listened to LJt's list a second time last night at work, and realized if I had listened to it in a total chill out 4am mood the first time around, it could have been ranked differently. Same goes for almost everyone else. If I had actually been driving on a sunny day while listening to Lm's list, it may have been my #1.
Well I did the mistake of checking the new u2 album thread while I'm waiting. Why.
A question I've asked myself too many times.
Really enjoyed your list, LMS! Excellent first run
Nice cross-posting, Peef.
Shit, I loved LJT's list. Great flow with variety but consistent atmosphere and some superb artists that I had not come across before. That one deserves to be much higher, IMO. Bonus points as well for the Wittgenstein shout-out.
