By request, I'm ramping back up the MB's Album of the Year voting. Please use this thread to submit ballots, and I'll close the voting in a week or so to tally up the votes.

Now, if you want to submit a top ten list, you can do that, and I will accept it. 1st place is 10 points, 2nd place 9, and so on. However, you can also divvy up your points if you so choose.

That top 10 list has 55 points. You can instead divide those 55 points up however you wish within these limits:
- No album can receive more than 15 points
- You cannot vote for more than 15 albums
- If you exceed 55 points, I lop off your ballot the moment you hit the limit

If you do not number your list or assign points, I will give every album the same amount of points, getting as close to 55 without exceeding it. If you submit a numbered list short of a top 10, I will assign point values as if it was a top 10 list.

Here is a list of 2014's official releases:

Please submit your ballots in this thread. Let's see how crappy our taste is.
