After a bit of consideration, I think maybe we would be better off ordering the lists ourselves from 1-10. #1 gets 10 points, #2 gets 9 points etc. Tally up the totals and publish the overall ranking and winner.
Thoughts on that system?

I've only participated in a couple of survivor threads here, but I can definitely see why the 'survivor' format has been popular. Because it plays out over many rounds, people end up discussing the relative merits of the albums as they go, people sometimes change their minds as they go and a particular album grows on them, some will join the thread toward the end if they haven't had time to listen to the whole list at the start, and when there are only 2 or 3 albums left things get heated (usually in a friendly way). Basically it becomes more of a game. However if you want a quick way to find out which album of a list is the most popular amongst the MB community, what you suggest will definitely be quicker. Obviously it's your thread so I'll go with what you choose.
