You will notice that I left a space after a tie which is what I should have done the first time. I also inserted The Sun Sessions by Elvis @ #78 because I simpy forgot to put that in the original list. This list is accurate to a T but the only problem is that, in retrospect, I think we used a very flawed scoring system: 1=50, 50=1. I think we should have used 1=60, 50=11. That way your #50 counts 1/6th of what your #1 counts. A much better scoring system. If I can find the lists that I scored over on RS. com, I'll post the real Top 100.

I also feel certain there will be less ties that way since there will be more points.

OK, I found the lists. ;D This took a while, but it's fun to me so I didn't mind. This is the real top 128. The reason I did a list of 128 is because that's the exact amount that scored over 100 points. Like I mentioned in the previous post 1=60pts and 50=11pts. These are the best albums to all who posted at The Rolling Stone Project on RS.com. The following are the participators:

Melon, thanks for bringing all that stuff back, our hard work is not lost indeed after your efforts! Some interesting picks in there, too... I like the way you included the last 28 as they scored over 100 and were hence close to the top 100, it's always good to get a perspective of what was "just under the radar of what was chosen!!! :-)

I'd love to participate in that, but to be honest, I am really not sure I could think of anything before 1970, and even then my picks would be sketchy indeed...
