With over 100 songs in the list this is quite challenging given that I also curate my own charts each week incl. extensive NMF listening (which blocks 2 days alone) + several other contests ongoing here. I don't feel that comfortable giving my ranking in such hurry, particularly for years I am not that familiar with it.Saying you want to be fair to the songs like they have feelings. It needs to be the organisers of this event more than it needs to be āfair to the songsā. If you donāt feel ācomfortableā giving a ranking then simply donāt. If you want to host one for the 90ās and have it take over half a year of work and tallying scores etc so that you can be fair to the songs then you do that but donāt put that expectation onto others.

But I had various things going on which meant I couldn't really commit (in fact looking back I;'m surprised I did it in 2024... but I may have bailed when it came to then semis/ final write ups). Am back this year... I had actually forgotten how messy the noms thread was and how long the count up takes š¤£Iz used to run it solo, for many, many years though.... Christ knows how š¤£It is very much appreciated the hard work the posters who host Record of the Decade.

And I have written in the same post, which you not fully cited, that I appreciate the work of the organisers. I do the multichart once a month and know how much time it takes to compile something like this.And I did not put any expectations on others - it was just a suggestion and I am free to put those whenever I want.
