[QUOTE=Anxious Mo-Fo]The album one did good. I dont see why the band one wouldn't do good. Even though an underserving band will win.[/QUOTE]

Yeah. I don't know if I should split it into genres. R&M has had a Classic Rock one, a Metal one, and a Modern Rock band.

Just doing punk would cover a LOT of bands, but there it is hard to split bands because of small genres and crossovers.

ok, but I should use cardboard instead of bristol board?

[QUOTE=Brain Squirmin' Like a Toad]Hmmm. R&M has Top 100 band polls, I'm thinking about doing that for punk, but I don't know.[/QUOTE]

Do it.

Will you include hardcore bands?

If someone could split the polls up to no more than 5 genres I think it would work out good.

[QUOTE=robenshtein]ok, but I should use cardboard instead of bristol board?[/QUOTE]
What the hell is bristol board?

what would be the 5 genres? Punk, Ska, Oi, Crust, Street Punk, Celtic, Anarcho...?

[QUOTE=Anxious Mo-Fo]What the hell is bristol board?[/QUOTE]

the harder type of paper, thats what its called here.

[QUOTE=BERSERKER!]Do it.

If I don't split anything, they will be included, if I do, new hardcore bands would be discluded (word?) such as Carry On, Champion etc

what ever happened to punk of the month?

I've got the format down I think.

Everyone will give their Top 15 bands. The Top 100 of those (counted by number of times they are said) will be put into 10 polls of 10. Then the top 3 from each of those polls will be up in 3 polls of ten, then the top 3 will be put together in the 9 band final poll. There will be tiebreaker polls as needed. After the final poll, it will be put in the top 100 order.

Died due to lack of interest, everybody thought it was stupid.

So no categories?

[QUOTE=robenshtein]So no categories?[/QUOTE]

Is there 100 Anarcho bands? Or 100 modern hardcore bands (80s hardcore will be included in punk, because it is still hardcore punk). Only cateogires I can think of that will have enough bands are Punk, Hardcore (modern mainly, but 80s too), Ska, and Pop-Punk.

Why? 100 bands is a [FONT=Arial]s[/FONT]hitload.

Is this going to be like Reiner's voting threads?

[url]http://www.myspace.com/pinstripemelee[/url]

everyone should check out this excellent ska/punk band, goin to see 'em wed.

[QUOTE=StruckEverywhere]Why? 100 bands is a [FONT=Arial]s[/FONT]hitload.[/QUOTE]

Everything is top 100 or 50 but 100 top punk albums sounds good seeing how everyone picks their 15 top fav. bands.

I think I have this figured out. Here are the categories I'm planning

Punk - Will include Ska-punk, Hardcore-punk (80s hardcore, not modern), punk, anarcho, street, oi, Pop-punk, etc. Will not include bands that cannot be discussed here.
Hardcore - Will inclcude Hardcore-punk and modern hardcore
Ska - All waves
Pop-punk - Self-explainitory.

this is going to cause alot of genre disagreement, i called it now.

No. I'll be the official genre policeman.

"Ska-punk" would include bands such as streetlight, Mu330?

Yes. Third-wave

-genre policeman

[QUOTE=robenshtein]"Ska-punk" would include bands such as streetlight, Mu330?[/QUOTE]

Yes, all 3rd wave bands (besides ones that have older wave sounds, like The Slackers, The Toasters)

alright, I know who I'm voting for, now if you guys will excuse me im going to go get my fix on Family Guy in 5minutes.

[QUOTE=Brain Squirmin' Like a Toad]Yes, all 3rd wave bands (besides ones that have older wave sounds, like The Slackers, The Toasters)[/QUOTE]
I can see that getting confusing

[QUOTE=ScuzzBucket89]I can see that getting confusing[/QUOTE]

Yeah. I'll just say Ska-punk, no wave stuff. Most people understand the term ska-punk. Bands that don't qualifiy and are voted will be put in a list on the first post, and not counted.

So top 100 for each of these genre's?

So all Ska 1st, 2nd, 3rd wave will fall under ska punk?

[QUOTE=StruckEverywhere]So top 100 for each of these genre's?[/QUOTE]

Yeah. It may be best to leave pop-punk and hardcore to their respective forums, so I may put them in there.

I'm thinking for punk, since modern hardcore is not included because it has its place in the hardcore poll, pop-punk will not be in the main punk one, but borderline bands will exist (Rancid, Nofx, The Adicts, etc)

[QUOTE=robenshtein]So all Ska 1st, 2nd, 3rd wave will fall under ska punk?[/QUOTE]

No, you misunderstood. Ska-punk is the third wave, but there is third wave bands that arent ska punk (Toasters, Slackers, Hepcat). I won't use wavbes, I'll just say ska-punk can be in the punk one. The other waves won't be allowed,as they have no punk influence ie like the top 100 albums.
