Please don't say you love me

Tell me "don't" so I can crawl back in

Hello, there's about eight and a half hours until the deadline. Just a reminder that this deadline isn't a hard stopping point and if you're still coming and can get your scores to me within the next 12 or so hours after that before I wake up and get going tomorrow you're good to go. Please let me know if you're still coming though so I can try to keep an eye out for you/take my time when I get going tomorrow if need be. I know there's a few who mentioned being interested who haven't shown up yet.

How about some of our host's averages for now then?

Bury Me at Makeout Creek - 9.4
Puberty 2 - 8.9
Be the Cowboy - 8.5
Retired from Sad, New Career in Business - 8.4
Lush - 7.9

Averages look about on par with how I would've ranked the albums if you asked me to before starting up this rate. The main takeaway/surprise is just how strong Puberty 2 is in spite of the two weak points it has for me personally.

This rate is turning out much more interestingly than I thought and I'm looking forward to getting into the results with y'all shortly.
 
Didn't think I'd have time to get this done, but was able to get everything rated the last few days. (No commentary, so I'll just just chime in as compelled.)

I basically stan Be the Cowboy. It was one of my fave albums of 2018. I had never heard her first two before this rate or some of the extras. Made some great discoveries!

I'll go back though & get caught up on the thread & write-ups. Here are my album scores

Lush = 8.4
Retired from Sad, New Career in Business = 9.1
Bury Me at Makeout Creek = 8.9
Puberty 2 = 8.7
Be the Cowboy = 9.2
 
Yeah, my favorite Mitski songs are her balls-to-the-wall rockers. I would kill for an album full of Drunk Walk Home, A Loving Feeling, Cop Car, My Body is Made of Crushed Little Stars, etc.

As for my favorite on Be The Cowboy, it's Lonesome Love. Never thought a song that is barely 1:50 long could understand me & gut me to the core. It was a contender for my 11, although I went with the more cliche, obvious song in the end.
 
I made a second page in my spreadsheet as a snapshot of the leaderboard placements at different counts of voters. I don't know if there will be anymore before we get going and how many there will be regardless so I'll throw this out there.

- As of the stat/count freeze, there were 9 unique 11s given out to different tracks. (up from 5)
- Our #1 track has an average of 9.76 (down from 10)
- Our track in last place has an average of 6.65 (up from 5.4)
- Our bottom 10 tracks reach across 7 of the sections/categories (up from 6)
- The total number of 10s given so far is 101 (up from 55)
- Our lowest individual score given is still a 2

These don't account for any ballots I received but didn't enter before said stats snapshot but they're fun and give a picture of where we might be heading.

What are y'all wanting or expecting to see go first?
 
It's past midnight which means we've hit the deadline but if you're still working, don't panic.

I'm gonna go to bed in hopefully an hour or two and then I'll need to make some food/get the spreadsheet fully in order and so forth before we begin. I'll post first thing when I wake up tomorrow before I do anything else to give people a final warning/chance to get in while I do daily chores. Then I'll get our first elimination out later that night.

If you've got yours done and I haven't posted about being awake or things being Completely Closed yet, just send it in xx

Hi, it looks like I received a handful of ballots overnight. I'll work on updating the sheets as soon as possible. Happy to have y'all joining.

If nobody else is coming I can get things going in a few hours once things wind down a bit for the day? I'll leave my inbox open until then but I don't think anyone else is coming.

This is your Final Warning, I guess dddddd.

How much time do I still have? I have most of the scores ready but couldn't do the extras due to uni exams, but I might try to do that right now if there is enough time.
