Fun facts from part 2:
>Future/Tame Impala poll was the most voted on, with 111 votes. Future won by only 9.
>The closest match was FJM and Joanna Newsom, with FJM winning by a mere 8 votes.

The albums are simply a consolidation of various publications' AOTY lists, I didn't choose them. Also I know that the bracket is wonky, the list order was randomized which I now realize was a bad idea but oh well, which is why the Jenny Hval pick seems out of place compared to albums like OPN's or Joanna's that were eliminated early. Now I know better for next time.

Viet Cong - Viet Cong
vs.
Kendrick Lamar - TPAB

Father John Misty - ILYH
vs.
Julia Holter - HYIMW
http://strawpoll.me/6278125

Sufjan Stevens - Carrie & Lowell
vs.
Future - DS2
http://strawpoll.me/6278128

Bjork - Vulnicura
vs.
Jenny Hval - Apocalypse, girl

What publications even had Jenny Hval on their list?
You should've used the top albums here:
albumoftheyear.org/list/summary/2015/

if Kendricuck wins I will kill myself

I should have, but even then she was in the top 32 yesterday when I started this (she's at 35 now). The reason I got more specific than just using albumoftheyear was because of anomalies like Chris Stapleton and Jason Isbell that /mu/ doesn't give two shits about. I think next time I'll use something more concrete and specific to /mu/ though, maybe last.fm or comb through a bunch of the AOTY threads and charts.

No reason whatsoever the winners shouldn't be Viet Cong, Honeybear, C&L, and Vulnicura.
>>
>>61059283
Seems the most likely, though given voting trends in previous rounds I think Viet Cong and Kendrick will be close. Next round will likely have FJM and Sufjan which will be a good one.

Someone messed up eliminating Viet COng and placing them ahead.

So is there a second side of the voting, or is this it?

I know it's a meme, but I seriously expected there to be the Powers That B for voting, if this is it. I guess that it wouldn't be on many publications' lists but I'm still surprised, somehow.
>>
>>61061227
the brackets were pretty much rigged from the beginning. I really wish rusty were still around to do the /mu/ awards, his system was always on the money

but overall voting tournaments dont work because everyone gets asspaind that their album lost to another album, its a really silly system
>>
>>61060770
your posturing is obvious and annoying

Well essentially he would have a ballot sheet that had numerous categories such as best album, best single, best new artist, worst single, worst album so on and so forth. People would fill out the ballot sheet and email it to him and he would count them along with some helpers.

About a year ago I personally try to reach out to him to see if we could take over because he made it clear that he didn't want to do it anymore. See I wanted to still carry on the /mu/ awards but have them more as an award ceremony over /mu/tant radio (which I run) but he never really got back to me :/

How are you supposed to vote when C&L and DS2 are objectively tied for AOTY?
