I'm about equally interested in three of these. I might wait a bit to see how the contest develops before casting a vote.

I forget exactly when I created this poll, but people will definitely be able to vote at least until March 31 at 6 PM Eastern Time. I'll tally it up later that evening after the poll has closed.

I know mine is weird. Vote for me, so I'll be done already!

In the context of these threads, weird is good. Theres not much point in me voting for a list I'm already largely familiar with since the point (at least for me) of these dedicated listening threads is get exposed to things I might not otherwise discovered.

I was pretty clueless walking into Tap's list an ended up getting a lot out of it.
