[Black Dagger]

BLX2 was robbed.

[Shaun]

Right, the OP's been fully updated, the qualification stuff rubbed out, and Round 1 is now open. From the big 200-song-long list in the OP, pick your favourite twenty! (You don't have to pick 20 but that's the maximum).

As it's the first round, usually any song that doesn't get any votes is eliminated but if loads vote, then maybe any with just 1 vote can be culled too.

[Shaun]

Oh crap wait I forgot the rules You can't pick all 3 songs by one artist because this isn't a game for stans (and it makes it quite interesting and open) that's about it really.

[Shaun]
