The Definitive Smiley Smile Message Board's Song Ranking - Ranking Process 2021-

[Doobidoo]

Hi everybody, and welcome to The Definite Smiley Smile Message Board's Ranking.

The instructions and rules are as follows:

• Listing a song as your #1 pick will give it 10 points, your #2 pick receives 9 points, #3 receives 8 points, etc.
• You are able to edit your Top 10 list as free as you want, but as the results are getting calculated, your presented version is the one that is getting counted
• You may also include solo perfomances from the members of The Beach Boys (B.Wilson, D.Wilson, C.Wilson, M.Love. A.Jardine, B.Johnston) in your rankings
• Any song that recieves points will be presented in a Google Spreadsheet. This speadsheet will be presented in a month from now, and will also be updated annually.
• Wether it is an alternative mix, demo recording, official album version, single version, live version, etc, of a song, you are able to freely rank your top ten. These different versions of the same songs in your rankings are going to get merged in the Spreadsheet
• If your list presents the same song twice and/or are not a complete Top 10 list, your list are going to be disregarded from the spreadsheet calculations
• Lets keep it simple: Don't comment other people's lists and/or engage in a discussion. You can comment your thoughts about your list in your post though.

I understand that the rules are pretty harsh, and that the point system might be a bit limiting. But this might be a way for us to "officially" present our lists to eachother, making it also possible to have a semi-objective stance on what the Smiley Smile Message Board really thinks is the greatest Beach Boys songs. It's far from perfect, but it is atleast something!

Have fun!  


EDIT: The 2020 results are now live: http://smileysmile.net/board/index.php/topic,26093.0.html.
The ranking process doesn't end here though. The new results will be presented in September 2021. Keep on voting!

Love the idea for this... I’m going to pin this.

I think at some point we should do a separate discussion topic, and this will be moved to a sub forum. Been meaning to reorganize the board a bit.

I do think there should be a separate list for solo tracks. Just my opinion.

Don't comment other people's lists and/or engage in a discussion.

This seems a terribly depressing stipulation to make on a discussion board.
