[Sir Ian Plätschisch]

2022 - 2023 Talossan Music Top 20 Special Edition: Final Voting

Many thanks to everyone who nominated songs. Of course, people who did not are still very welcome to participate.

The final round for each group has 10 songs. Since people might not want to rank 10 songs for six different groups, you have three options to vote:
-Give your top 10 songs 12,10,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1 points
-Give your top 5 songs 5,4,3,2,1 points
-Give your top 3 songs 3,2,1 points

SEND YOUR VOTES TO ME IN A PRIVATE MESSAGE. DO NOT POST THEM HERE.

Voting will last one week. The top-ranked song that has not already been nominated to a previous edition of the TMT20 will be automatically nominated to the 2023 edition.

Classical
Antonin Dvorak - Symphony No. 9 4th movement
Edward Elgar - Enigma Variations, Op.36: IX. (Nimrod)
Guiseppe Torelli - Concerto for Guitar & Violin in A Major: I. Allegro
Johann Pachelbel - Canon in D
Ludwig von Beethoven - 9th Symphony
Ludwig von Beethoven - 7th Symphony 2nd movement, Allegretto
Ludwig von Beethoven - Mondscheinsonate, 3rd movement
Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky - Piano Concerto 1 (B Flat Minor)
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart - Lacrimosa (Requiem)
Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart - A Little Night Music Serenade No. 13 in G Major

Tiebreakers:
- Number of voters giving 12 points
- Number of voters giving 10 points
...
- Number of voters giving 2 points
- PPV in Round 1
- Random chance

Tactical voting refers to either giving more points than you normally would to a song because it would make the difference between it going through or getting eliminated, or giving fewer points than you normally would to a song because it might kick a song you like even more out of the competition. This is hard to prevent, but my very strong request would be to not do it. Give points to the songs you believe deserve to go through, regardless of how others are voting. Doing otherwise reduces the value of votes that came before you, which is unfair to them. Remember that it's not a competition between voters, but a collective effort to make a nice list of songs we like. Thanks.

I did my best with all the links but there is always a chance some are broken or have a wrong version or bad audio quality. If a link is broken or you have a suggestion for a better link, please contact me or post the link in the thread. Officially, we are not voting on the YouTube link, but on the listed Artist + Title.

COMMENTARY ON THE PROGRESS OF THE GAME, THE RULES, WHAT SONGS YOU LIKE, ETC., IS VERY WELCOME.

I'm not sure it's the best time of the year to get in the mood to judge Christmas songs, but that's how it goes sometimes 😁

Alright, last group. We've been at this for almost six months so it's about time.
