Posted November 18, 201212 yr Hello Buzzjack! I believe that this type of thread is allowed to be in here, and the lounge mods want to lessen the divide between the chart forum and the lounge by making these threads, so it wouldn't be advisable to close this thread. Anyway, the wildcards round of Buzzjack's Favourite Christmas Songs is going on in the Lounge right now, and we need our budding chart forum posters to vote in it! 50 songs have been selected and autoqualified to go through to the voting round, which will take place this time next week. However, we want more songs to go through to the voting round, which is why we have set up a wildcards round! The 25 most popular songs (the songs with the most points) from the wildcards round will go through to the voting round and will compete among the autoqualifiers for your votes. You have to vote for your 15 favourite songs and your 10 least favourite songs from the list of songs below in this layout: +250 (favourite song) +225 (second favourite song) +200 +175 +150 +100 +75 +50 +25 +20 +18 +16 +14 +12 +10 -10 -12 -14 -16 -18 -20 -25 -50 -75 (second least favourite song) -100 (least favourite song) Here are the songs that are in the wildcard round and are the songs you need to vote for in this round! If you do not know any of the songs, please click on the YouTube links below and don’t mark them low because you don’t know them! I've tried to include some Buzzjack favourites and I've probably forgotten some songs but I think I've got most of the obvious ones that aren't on the final shortlist! ABBA - Happy New Year Band Aid 20 - Do They Know It’s Christmas? Bo Selecta - Proper Crimbo Bon Jovi - Please Come Home For Christmas Burl Ives - Rudolph The Red-Nosed Reindeer Cascada - Last Christmas Carrie Underwood - Jesus Take The Wheel Cliff Richard - The Millennium Prayer Darlene Love - All Alone On Christmas Darlene Love - Christmas (Baby Please Come Home) David Essex - A Winter’s Tale Delta Goodrem - Happy Xmas (War Is Over) Dina Carroll - The Perfect Year Enya - Silent Night Faith Hill - Where Are You Christmas?

November 18, 201212 yr Do you have to fill out all the points? I've only heard seven of those songs and I don't particularly want to have to listen to all of them :lol:
November 18, 201212 yr You could try doing what someone did in the international charts forum, and re-post this same thread about 20-odd times. That should get more people's attention :D
November 18, 201212 yr Do you have to fill out all the points? I've only heard seven of those songs and I don't particularly want to have to listen to all of them :lol: Um, it would be good if you did! Because I'm thinking of not counting someone who didn't fill in all of the points' votes, and it would be unfair if I let you get away with doing the same thing. You could either use the minimum voting system: +250 (favourite song) +225 (second favourite song) +200 +175 +150 +100 +75 +50 +25 +20 -20 -25 -50 -75 (second least favourite song) -100 (least favourite song) Or you could fill in the points by judging the songs on the artists. But it would be good if you did vote! You could try doing what someone did in the international charts forum, and re-post this same thread about 20-odd times. That should get more people's attention :D :lol: The hype levels will go into overdrive next week with the voting round, I'm going to try and make it the biggest thread of 2012 that isn't related to a popularity contest. ^_^ Edited November 18, 201212 yr by Grief
