OK, folks, I'm going to restart this countdown.Can one of the mods edit the thread title to remove the "on hold" parenthetical?
The rules are the same as for all the other countdowns and as set forth in Kev's original post in this thread, but here they are as a reminder:
Alright, since we have done singers, guitarists and drummers, time to show bassists the proper respect and do them as well!
I will count down the 25 bassists in order, and they will be taken from lists of anyone who wants to send me theirs via PM. Do not post them on the forum here. Send them to me via PM. I will take all of the lists and come up with the cumulative list and do the countdown from 25 to 1.
The rules:
-Bassists must be listed from 25 to 1 in order (in reverse order), with no ties. No having three bassists at number 4 or anything like that. DO NOT list your bassists with the points total. List them in your order (I will figure out the points on my end).
-Any list submitted with the bassists not numbered will be ignored.
-
Anyone wanting to submit a list must do so by the end of day, Saturday, March 2, 2024. I will then begin the countdown shortly thereafter.
-The list will be tallied numerically in a simple way. On each list, whatever bassist is at number 1 gets 25 points, number 2 gets 24 points, number 3 gets 23 points, etc.
-List each bassist by their stage name (first and last name or just one name if it's someone who goes by just one name like Flea; do not send acronyms or just first or last names assuming I will know who you mean).
-PROOFREAD YOUR LISTS BEFORE SENDING THEM. Any list with the same bassist mentioned twice will be not be counted.
Feel free to post in this thread as well that you have PM'd me, if for no other reason than to bump this back up for others who may want to participate who may not have seen the thread yet.
This ranking engine link below works great if you have too much difficulty making one on your own. You can input all of the bassists you want, and then you pick your favorite of every 1-on-1 matchup and then it spits out your list.
