May 30, 201510 yr I think that's something we can definitely discuss further! If we leave it for a few weeks while we catch up on this backlog of rates I've mentioned above then that'd be the best idea, but after they are done then I think we can definitely look into it :D I think that's a good idea, maybe start around end of June :)
May 30, 201510 yr Author Ace of Base results are done... Cheers! ^_^ I think that's a good idea, maybe start around end of June :) Sounds good, if you or anyone else have any suggestions of artists you think would be popular then let us know so we can consider who to choose! Taylor Swift or Ellie Goulding would be my top choices I think, but maybe there are some other obvious ones.
May 30, 201510 yr Author The first post of this thread is finally fully up-to-date with every single host put alongside each rate for the first time (we'd only done certain sections before). I have to say the number of rates we have all hosted and participated in over the last couple of years in particular is nothing short of phenomenal, we really now have such an incredible library of rates so a really big thank you to everyone who has played their part in creating it! :cheer:
May 31, 201510 yr Can I do a Lily Allen Singles & Featured singles rate? Edited May 31, 201510 yr by ♡ Heezus Froot ♡
June 1, 201510 yr Author Yes that's fine as I'm aware that less people take part in full discography rates which is what Lily had last year. So a singles-only rate is fine, and feel free to start it now as JSG has informed me he is delaying his for the time being. Also, thank you for giving me an idea - see the Conor rate thread for what the idea is! :kink:
June 2, 201510 yr Author Just to copy this from the Notices thread as it applies here too: Notice for future rate hosts! Following the trial of a new idea in the Conor Maynard rate, it's success means we'd like all future rate hosts to do the same. We are fully aware that it is much more difficult for non-fans or casual fans to take part in full discography rates without skewing the results for a select number of tracks, such as the singles - therefore they often don't take part at all. Therefore we now ask all rate hosts to provide a "basic" and "premium" version of their rate so to speak, so non hardcore fans can just rank the singles which they are probably only aware of and by making this happen in a separate section, the results won't be skewed negatively for the singles (as naturally non-fans will rank tracks lower than fans) as they would be if it was all combined in one rate. Then in a separate "premium" section of the rate, the hardcore fans who know every track can then rank every track. Please see the Conor Maynard rate for an example of what we'd like to see in future! If the recently started rates for Alesha Dixon and Fifth Harmony want to make a "basic" version of their rate available too, that'd be great!
June 2, 201510 yr Author Could I be in the queue for a No Doubt and Gwen Stefani rate I'll add you now!
June 9, 201510 yr Was just wondering if I could do be in the queue Jessie J rate as I don't think there has been one yet? Bring on all the 0.0's from all those vultures :kink:
June 9, 201510 yr Author Cheers Acidburn! And sure Davidson, I'll add you to the queue now! If possible will you be able to provide a singles-only section as well as the full discography (if that is what you were planning) so more casual "fans" can take part too (see the Conor/Alesha rates for example)? :D

If possible will you be able to provide a singles-only section as well as the full discography (if that is what you were planning) so more casual "fans" can take part too (see the Conor/Alesha rates for example)? :D Yeah of course. That sounds like the best idea to get the maximum number involved.
June 17, 201510 yr Author As we have 3/4 rates about to reach their conclusions, all of the five people that have rates queued up in the first post can now begin their rates! :cheer: If you are planning on doing a complete discography rate, please also include a singles-only version for the less hardcore fans to rate. See the Alesha Dixon/Conor Maynard rates for examples. ^_^
June 18, 201510 yr Author UK top 40 singles seems a good idea to me, makes it a more manageable number. Feel free to start it now, just please remember to finish it! :D
June 22, 201510 yr Sorry about the Fifth Harmony results taking a while, I've been really busy with work and having family visit but they WILL be done by Friday! :D
