Countdown List Megathread!
« on: October 06, 2023, 09:41:22 AM »
Alright so as I'm running the PF list, soon to be artist countdown, and pg1067 seems like he is going to start a Dream Theater Song countdown list I figured I'd consolidate everything here so people can view old lists, see upcoming lists, gauge interest for new lists. I went back and tried to find every thread with a countdown but if I missed something please let me know. I'll ask one of the mods if they think it's a good idea to sticky this thread.

Currently Running:
Upcoming:
Albums:

Songs:
Misc.:
What's Next:
  • Haken Albums
  • The Beatles Albums
  • Devin Townsend Albums

Let me know if there is anything you'd like to see next.

Cheers for this Reap. Seems logical to sticky it.

As for upcoming, it seems inevitable that a top bassist one will be done sooner or later.

Is the Dream Theater one a top 50 songs thread?

Kev made a Top 25 Bassists thread, but then put it on hold for a different countdown. My list for that is ready to go.

I'm a bit confused how this is different than jingle's Top 50 stickied thread. 

But here is the bassist one, which is not currently linked in either.

As someone suggested, if I decide to undertake this, I will "advertise" it in the GMD board since some people don't visit the DT board.

Yea I found that one but didn't include it since it was put on hold.

Will get it added!

Wow I'm an idiot. I'll try and get this thread deleted then. For some reason I missremembering jingle's thread as the personal top 50 countdown.

Yeah, I did too for awhile, because personal album threads are usually 50, and rankings we've done recently have often been 25.  But because I've off and on been working on starting my own I've looked in there a lot more often so I'm more aware of what's in the OP.

Will do:

Genesis songs
Beatles songs
Bassists

Absolutely will not do:
Haken songs (Just not familiar, and not enough there to make me want to learn)
Haken albums (just not familiar enough, and not enough there to make me want to learn)
Steven Wilson (don't like)

Problem is, Chad hasn't updated the thread since June.

Which is also quite behind on updates.  :lol
