@HannahHowe I wonder: what’s engagement like for the 95 and 96 stuff? I only ask as there’s a lot I’m not voting on because I dislike each track so much, or don’t know them at all.
I wondered if others are feeling similarly, or if it’s just me being grumpy
@WiteWulf @HannahHowe I'm in the same boat, won't vote on something where I have no clear preference, or when it's "x's least iconic single" or whatever
@WiteWulf The 1990s series is the least popular of all the polls I’ve run. I think at the end of the qualifying process we will have twenty excellent songs. How they will fair when matched with songs from the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s will be interesting to see.
@HannahHowe interesting, thanks.
Just to be clear: my lack of voting in some rounds isn’t due to lack of interest, but due not having a clear preference for either track on a surprising number of occasions.
