This post is for voting on /c/rage’s Lemmyvision 2 song nomination.

Over the past few weeks, our community has submitted nominations, and we have until April 1 to pick a winner. Our Lemmyvision representative, @Gorgritch_umie_killa, has delegated our election to an independent agency, the Aussie.zone Eureka Commission (AEC).

Anyone who has recently commented a few times on aussie.zone before today is allowed to vote. (This includes, for example, some quokk.au users and various Australian Lemmy users on other instances)

This election uses preferential Instant-Runoff Voting[wiki] just like our federal elections. Put simply, this means that if your [1] choice has no chance of election, your vote then runs over to your [2] choice, and so on, so there’s no disadvantage in picking an unpopular song you love for your first votes, your vote is not ‘wasted’ at all. Vote sincerely.

A couple of the nominations weren’t released during 2024, we’ve received confirmation from the organiser that they’re allowed!

Here are the entries. Please listen to them all before voting:

Here is the ballot template for you to fill in. Copy and paste it as a new reply to this post, and number ALL boxes from 1 to 10 in order of your choice. [1] is your first preference, [10] is your last preference.

18 - '70s Football

    Other observations:

    https://www.condorcet.vote/Vote/AEA9DC099A/

    From the river to the sea was a Condorcet winner (would win in a one-on-one race against each other opponent). There was no Condorcet loser; International, '70s Football and Friend of Dorothy had a scissors-paper-rock stalemate going on.

    International was the most controversial. It scored 33 out of a possible 70 in the Borda count (averaging a preference of #5) while managing to earn a #1 vote, a #3 vote and two #10 votes.

    Everyone preferred:

    • From the river to the sea over I HATE RICH CUNTS and '70s Football
    • Transcendental Cha Cha Cha over Friend of Dorothy and '70s Football
