The DatabaseIn addition to keeping the waiting list up to date, I have also I taken all of the top 50 lists that have been posted thus far and listed every selection in a spreadsheet including Album, Artist, Year of Release, and Forum User. I also assigned points to each User's list based on their album ranking. Their top ranked album received 50 points, 2nd ranked got 49 and so on. If more than 50 albums were listed, the extra albums each received 1 point as if it were ranked 50th. (if you choose not to rank your album list, there isn't really a way for me to include your list in the database, sorry)
Some artists and their various projects have been combined due to one person being the primary driving force such as: Porcupine Tree/Steven Wilson/No-Man/Bass Communion, Devin Townsend solo projects/Strapping Young Lad, Arjen Lucassen/Ayreon/Star One, etc
The database is an excel spreadsheet at the moment, but I have placed some of the info in a google doc that can be accessed here:
