BrilliantDisguise Posted June 15, 2012 Report Posted June 15, 2012 Quick question...does your top ten have to be in the order that you like the songs or random order is ok?
MindCrime Posted June 15, 2012 Report Posted June 15, 2012 Quick question...does your top ten have to be in the order that you like the songs or random order is ok? In the order that you like them, they receive points based on how you rank them. Your #1 gets 10 points, #2 gets 9 points all the way to #10 which gets 1 point. All the votes are then counted and the final top 10 based on the combined lists is presented.

pinkstones Posted June 16, 2012 Report Posted June 16, 2012 Also, make sure you check the lists of songs that have already made the Top Ten. There's two; one by artist, and one by song. Sometimes we do specials where you can pick songs that have already made it, but most of the time it's songs that haven't. Welcome to Songfacts!
