The Sixth Songfactors' Choice Ultimate Top Ten - Final

[Farin]

[big]THE SIXTH SONGFACTORS' CHOICE ULTIMATE TOP TEN - FINAL[/big]

- No nominations are required, as the songs have been selected from our 25 top tens.

- Voting rules will be exactly the same as the normal top tens - rank your favourite songs in the list from 1-10, and 10 points will be given to your number 1 song, 9 for number 2 etc.

- We have decided to restrict eligibility to vote to only those people who have nominated or voted in at least one of Top Tens 126-150.

- We realised it would be ridiculous to expect people to come up with a top ten from all 250 songs, so I have seeded the songs and split them into fair groups.

- The results will be announced in about five days from the start date of this thread.

- This is the ultimate group, and this group contains the 50 winner songs from the rounds 1 to 5.
