Yearly reminder: Your Top Ten still exists! If you enjoy sharing your taste in Best Of every year, you should consider doing it every week/month in Your Top Ten! The section is severely underfunded and we're running out of basic necessities, so this is a real chance to make a change in the world.  If you need an example of what a YTT chart looks like, here's my latest update  It'll also give you a peek at what you'll see in this thread.

[Moonlightbae]

Love how big your lists are... can't wait for this!

[JGibson]

Totally agree with Remmy about the YTT, as it's a pale shell of its old ATRL-era (and even early new ATRL-era) self.  

 

Cannot wait for the goals to be to be delivered like Salah. 

[Lazuli]

hello again fatty, you know i'm always perched for the slay that are your 1782 lists and the occasional bad taste you display  can't wait

I'll be posting in everyone's threads shortly and reply to comments in here tomorrow.  I got a new weekly countdown up right now as well  ~ click here

HERE for taste! Love to see you got into Kpop, though it's been a pretty weak year I'll say that

There's been a few solid tracks throughout the year, but I still have much, much more to explore

Totally agree with Remmy about the YTT, as it's a pale shell of its old ATRL-era (and even early new ATRL-era) self.  

 

Cannot wait for the goals to be to be delivered like Salah. 

I had to google Salah to totally understand this reference  and yup, YTT needs some love and activity! But it looks like my promo failed again

What happened in 2012?

I was "permabanned" for around 16 months or so  I was too messy back in the day...
