I accidentally rated SDV one point too low. Oh well, I'm sure everything will even out in the end...

You can remove your vote and change it.

Gorgeous, thanks!

Too many if you ask me. Of course, you can do whatever you want with your 10s but I think, even though you love them all, you should separate your very favorites from songs you love little less. 10s just for all time favorites :D

Yeah, I get that feeling. I didn't really put that much thought into giving like 25 10s (or however many). It's hard to think about it too much, because I change my mind often and I think the greater choice with the .5 increments makes my ratings scale upwards. Note how aggregate ratings out of 100 are far higher than they are when they're out of 5. I don't really know why that is and I may be slightly wrong as well.

This is what i'm doing, giving 10 only to my top 10 songs.

That's an interesting question: how many Dream Theater songs would you give a 10? 

I think so far, I have given a 10 to:

Take the Time
Surrounded
Metropolis
Learning to Live
Erotomania
Voices
Scarred
Lines in the Sand

I still haven't voted on the songs put up today, but I think the only post-FII songs I would give a 10 to might be Home and The Spirit Carries On.  That gives me 10.  Trial of Tears is usually in my top 10, but I gave it a 9.5.  Weird.

I'd probably only give 10s to: Learning to Live, Metropolis and Octavarium.

I've given one 10 out so far and that was to A Change of Seasons. I'm giving a 10 to my top 4, a 9.5 to my 5-8, and a 9 to my 9-10.

The only 10 I've given yet is to Take the Time. 9+ is reserved for clear top 10 type songs, so I've only given a few of those so far, with the rest yet to come. There will be more 10s once we get to SDOIT.
Speaking of which, since this is song ratings, you'll be keeping SDOIT disc 2 as one, right?

8, 8, 9, 8 for this batch of SFAM songs. They work better as a whole, even though they're all still great on their own.

So far I have only given one 10. I might give one more, but that's about it.

I find it very difficult to rate the songs off of Train of Thought. Every one is at least a little bit brilliant, but more than any other Dream Theater album, which is saying something, there's so much soloing and instrumental fireworks that it gets exhausting to me.
