Aggregation is awesome! I took the lists, assigned the ranked ones point values and the unranked ones a general value, and then did some other stuff and produced this. Higher number = More "Must See"

Only my favorite band EVER, that's who!
1. Broken Social Scene 158.5
2. LCD Soundsystem 137.5
3. The National 128.5
4. Pavement 127

Hells yeah I'm excited! Do you want to borrow my copy of the LP? It's soooo good.
5. My Morning Jacket 114.5
6. MGMT 102.5
7. Band of Horses 90.5

New Jersey,
I am going to give you props for your algorithms and spreadsheet calulations because for some reason, no one else has.

I enjoyed you post.

I second that. Very curious how this system works.

If someone made an ordered list, I gave ten points to the first name, nine points to the second name, etc etc. If someone just named ten bands, I gave each band 5.5 points. There were exceptions; like, with the guy who put LCD Soundsystem really high above everyone else, I gave LCD Soundsystem bonus points and subtracted some from the other bands he named to keep things even. Other people who did multiple lists had both half-weighted.
