Ok I'll vacate the premises whilst plug spams the thread.

I said I'll put noms up after 3 o'clock, over in the west where plug is that probably isn't due for another 2 days, so it will be a plugger free zone for a while

 

[Allikat]

I didn't realise that things like 'don't stop' would count. Obviously I don't understand double negatives properly, I thought it had to be thinks like "ain't no"

Yeah same. No wonder I had so much trouble finding a stupid song.

 

[MrsEddieBetts]

I didn't at first but it was well argued by the nominee so I allowed it, other entrants could have done the same.

I hate to be a nerd, but according to an online dictionary the "two negatives combine to form an affirmative". On that basis I'll only be voting for true double negatives.

The Marvin Gaye clip doesn't work for me. Don't know about anyone else but try this:

Yep just inboxed the nominee that I'm changing his video. Cheers.

I've got no problem with that, that's entirely your prerogative.

In light of the relaxing on the interpretation of the double negative rules, I'll allow any changes since I've received no votes yet, although it will be obvious who voted for what as songs get cut and replaced.

Soon as votes start coming in, no dice.

 

[edgie]

Yeah same. No wonder I had so much trouble finding a stupid song.

I like your song

 

[Plugger35]

This should've just been called the Ain't songs round.

Ok I'll vacate the premises whilst plug spams the thread.

I really can't think of many other songs that haven't already be nominated tbh.

It's not a double negative.

 

[Hard Ball Get]

This is a great song, but probably wouldn't have received many votes.

 

[Hard Ball Get]

A bit surprised no one nominated this when you consider all the Cake talk earlier in the competition...

 

[edgie]

It's not a double negative.

And Drops of Jupiter wasn't alliteration but what can ya do?

 

[Allikat]

I like your song

Oh I love my song! It was super hard to find though

 

[edgie]

Some votes have been received, no further changing.

 

[Plugger35]

Another great Ain't song but I don't think it counts as a double negative.

A bit surprised no one nominated this when you consider all the Cake talk earlier in the competition...

The only two Cake albums I own and really know well are Fashion Nugget and Prolonging the Magic, both great albums.

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

And Drops of Jupiter wasn't alliteration but what can ya do?

I only accepted that to give Jose the Billy.

 

[edgie]

Figured as much, but people gotta earn their billy's with me!

 

[Hard Ball Get]

Dicey but may have passed...

So how did everyone else host?

I've got an Excel document typed up at the moment to do all the work for me, was a pain setting it up but. Been a while since I've done office type work.

I don't have excel on my laptop so I had to write all the songs, botes and billies out by hand on a sheet of paper, was a pain in the arse.

I used an excel spreadsheet.

Sounds like a pain alright, but that is endearing. I like it.

I wonder if I should offer my template up for the next host?

Similar setup to me but way more professional looking. Very nice.

I didn't think to blot out the cells so they can't vote for themselves. Best get on to that now.

Yeah just found that was the easiest way.
A few of the simple formulas totaled up everything and ranked it for me.

Votes are in.
