- A #1 vote still counts 3x a #30 vote.
- Repeat votes are still discounted, but at a less-sharply-declining rate: 1, 1/2, 1/3, 1/4, ...
- Votes for the same artist-but-not-album still help, and more than before: 1/6th rather than 1/15th.
This time I normalized the final scores to the original unweighted range. If I had done this with the 64-nominee data, then we could have compared final scores directly. Sigh. You can compare them if you divide the total scores from the other list by 16.
Here's the results. There was a tie for 128, and so there are actually only 127 nominees. (The top seed would get a bye in the first round of the tournament.)
Here is the distribution according to how many albums from each person made the top 128. For example, you can see that once again Brian has the most picks as nominees.

Interesting, even with the kinder "diminishing returns" factor on the repeat votes, and even with 128 nominees, a few albums got more than one vote but didn't make the list.

Karl, you are pretty amazing.
ReplyDeleteWhoops, I listed the canonicalized artist name rather than the real artist name. Like it says "Will Oldham" rather than Palace Music. But you know what it means.
ReplyDeleteJust so everyone knows, because of a mistake that Steve made regarding the title of a certain album, Marvin Gaye is now our number 128. Awesome.
ReplyDeleteJust wanted to say that I have Bob Dylan Blood on the Tracks on my list but it doesn't show up on the scoring above, although the album did make the final 128,so maybe it doesn't matter.
ReplyDeleteNever, mind, my vote for it just got pushed down to the bottom half of the list as a single vote for some reason
ReplyDeleteYeah, Kev, you're right -- I missed the capitalization difference ("tracks" vs. "Tracks") and so my program thought it was two different Bob Dylan albums. It is regrettable, because it would have made a difference. I think Andrew manually tweaked it, though.
ReplyDeletePhew. Cuz that album is on my list too.
ReplyDeleteYeah, Blood on the Tracks was on the list twice. I took one off. I'm actually thinking of adding a wild card album--maybe Bon Iver. I should probably just pick spot 129, but I like to abuse my power.
