  • Post subject: Best Album Game: The '70s
  • Quote
Alright, here's a game I used to play on other music forums. What you do is you list the top ten things of any given subject, then pool them all together and vote on a winner. I'll explain in detail.

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING BEFORE YOU PLAY

So. This game is the Best Album Game: '70s edition. What you do is make a list of your ten favorite albums from the '70s. The one you put a TEN next to is the one you give the most points to. The one you put a ONE next to is the one you put a one next to. I'll give an example with my own entries:

10. Quadrophenia-The Who
9. Black Sabbath-Black Sabbath
8. The Lamb Lies Down on Broadway-Genesis
7. Red-King Crimson
6. Armed Forces-Elvis Costello
5. Another Green World-Brian Eno
4. Black Rose: A Rock Legend-Thin Lizzy
3. Wish You Were Here-Pink Floyd
2. London Calling-The Clash
1. Mothership Connection-Parliament

Quadrophenia gets TEN POINTS. Mothership Connection gets ONE POINT. After everyone's list has been tallied, the ten albums with the MOST POINTS from everyone's combined lists will be entered into a poll, and the album with the most votes will be THE BEA FORUMS' UN/OFFICIAL BEST ALBUM OF THE '70S.

People will have seven days from now to get their list in. Feel free to ask any questions you might have. Let the games begin!
