Yeah I could help. I would probably use an excel sheet to help calculate the points from voting positions

I like the idea of leaving decades behind and going for something new.


Not me, we're just starting to get to the good decades.

but the format of letting people write whatever they wanted failed. Horribly. (So freedom fails...hmmmmm...?)


I opted out of writing for directors because I don't think i could have done it justice, but I will always volunteer for MWADS lists and in fact have a basic write up for a 70's movie i'm sure will make the top 10 done already

I also would be happy to help with the counting, i work in excel all day.

1b) Does someone want to seriously HELP me with the WADS. I would need someone detail oriented, and with Spreadsheet experience, It can be a little daunting at times counting votes by hand. And it takes 2-3 recounts. Which is also annoying, but I would welcome this help.



Why not use Google Docs and have users input their own info?

Guess you have the risk of greater user error, but using that + formulas should make tabulation go easier.

Oringinally I wasn't even planning on voting cause I wasn't sure i could come up with a valid list of 20, but after I saw some ballots come in I figured I could make it work, plus I wanted to vote for Woody Allen, if for no other reason, just to piss iwy off

Yep. I can barely form a few coherent sentences for a movie that I love and have seen numberous times. Trying to that for a director would have been a Herculean effort for me.
