Thanks for adding your vote Morrison. Without realising it, you did something very spectacular to the standings...

After 37 votes counted, 2 songs have exactly the same amount of points, I can reveal. Keep voting, people... and encourage other people to do so as well... It's a really close race.

I will not reveal standings yet, but perhaps it's nice to give a few general trends so far: The 18 singles on Discography (+ Seriously = 19) get remarkably better results than the 19 post-discography singles: 15718 vs 11699 points.

Every participator could give 741 points (38+37..... +2+1).

SynthDuos was the most Discography-friendly voter so far with: 504 vs 237
Steve Fett was the most post-Discography friendly voter so far with: 312 vs 429
The most Discography/post-Discography balanced vote came from Blossom: 374 vs 367

Exactly 19 different singles topped the lists of the voters so far. That's exactly 50 percent of the available tracks to pick from. The number of different tracks listed as 'worst single' is 17. Seven singles weren't picked as favourite, nor least least favourite track.

Wow that makes interest for your final stats. I am interested in every little significance you find

As for the two toppers I guess it's either IASin, LTMODevices, WEGirls or CYFHer. I could go and check, but why do the work double and I can be patient ... until a certain degree at least. Surely I think CYFHer will be the most favourite post-Discography... But I rather stop now with my thoughts or I will influence future voters.......

As said before, reaching the number of 40 lists, doesn't mean I will close this survey yet. People can still add their lists here. On the German forum (www.petheads.de) an identical topic was started. I requested users to give me permission to post their lists over here, or to do this themselves.
