MindCrime Posted July 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2012 We are voting on 12 instead of 10 for this special. Any song by the Stones are eligible to be voted on, the nomination list are the songs that have already made the regular top 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucky Posted July 30, 2012 Report Share Posted July 30, 2012 How long is the voting period Kenne? The usual, or will you let it run longer? Nice idea, btw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MindCrime Posted July 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 30, 2012 How long is the voting period Kenne? The usual, or will you let it run longer? Nice idea, btw. I'll let it run until it doesn't appear any more Stones fan are voting. Another 10 can be started while this one is going on, I don't think it will interfere, since this one doesn't have the nomination stage or really require any listening.

Brad_M Posted August 3, 2012 Report Share Posted August 3, 2012 Wow! I know it's tough only picking 12 songs from such a great band with so many good songs but I'm still very surprised that "(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction" only showed up on one other voter's list, besides mine. Ok, here's mine. 1. (I Can't Get No) Satisfaction 2. Beast Of Burden 3. Ruby Tuesday 4. She's So Cold 5. Get Off Of My Cloud 6. Sympathy For The Devil 7. Jumpin' Jack Flash 8. Honky Tonk Women 9.
