I love the 90s part deux

[Iluvatar]

Okay, since Eliminator Jr. can't manage a thing on his own, I am basically completely lifting his idea and making it completely my own brainchild. Yay.

Well it's time for a list here, this time being the 50 Greatest Albums of the 90s. I plan to do this for every decade going back to the 60s, and I hope it works out as I want it to.

1.) Whoever wishes to participate must compile a list of 15 albums (in no particular order) from the specific decade, in this case from 1990 to 1999. EPs will not be accepted, obviously, and anyone who does not list a full fifteen will have their votes nullified.

2.) After compiling the list, send it to fa.iluvatar@gmail.com, my email dress. I will then tally up the albums and put them in order by number of votes by artist. Then, I will list the top 50 on the site in that vote order. Users will submit blurb-esque writeups on the albums. A user is permitted to write more than one, just to let you know.

3.) I will then post the results, writeups, and images of the albums in numerical order from 50 to 1 in a muse/article. Editors Note- I don't know how this will now work with Muses axed for the time being, but it will be done anyways.

Come on people, send those top 15 lists in. I don't mind if you post them here in the thread, but they must be sent to my email if you want them to count for top 50 list. I also don't mind if you happen to have a top 50 list laying around for some reason and just send it to me...yeah.

Come on folks, remember to whore this out to all your friends here on the forums so that we can have this one succeed!

pixies, thats a good idea, but I'd have to ask you to make your own thread on that one. The two would go hand in hand though, and these general rules should easily apply to them as well if you just want to copy+paste the body of this. Or whoever else might be interested in doing that.
