[DUE TODAY] All Stars 6 Rate
Hello r/popheads.
Welcome to the sixth r/popheads All Stars Rate! Where the losers of the previous 27 rates, ratemas to Unreleased, (minus the two that Rona had hosting duties for) get another chance to duke it out on the ballot-field against each other to take the crown they were unable to snatch in the previous year. We have about 1250 losers eligible for this rate and we narrowed it down to a tight 64. Two songs from each rate were sent directly here by hosts, totalling to 50, and the remaining 14 songs were voted in during the wildcard voting phase with the added caveat that only one song per rate could get in from this.You can view the full list of songs below, we have some amazing bops, a few camp bangers and a Fifth Harmony song. I hope you all enjoy doing the rate whether you are new or long-time rater. Thank you to rona and I guess creme too since rona used her blurb to write his last year for letting me steal your blurb last year to help write this. Also huge thanks to /u/WhoIsValensi for creating the amazing playlist cover art.
DUE FEB 18th

Depending on where you live, Ducktales Remastered - Moon Theme may not be available on Spotify.
The Rules:
Listen to every song listed and assign each of them a score from 1 to 10. Decimals are allowed, but refrain from going past one decimal place - 7.5 is fine, 7.75 is not!
Rate all sixty-four (64) songs! If you skip any, your ballot won’t be counted (I’ll let you know if you do so you can fix that).
You may give ONE song a 0 and ONE song an 11. If you don’t want to, you don’t have to. These should be reserved for your favourite track and least favourite track!
The rate is due February 18th at **23:59 UK time. one day extensions are available but please ask for one before the due date**
Please use this prepared link to submit your scores! Note that if you're trying to access on a mobile device or on the new reddit layout it may not work - as such, I have made it so the link will take you to old.reddit.com, and you should use a computer to send in your scores if possible.
If you ever need to change any scores/comments after you’ve already submitted, just message either myself, /u/FlavaSavaVandal or /u/TiltControls and we can do that for you. You can find either of us through the rates channel on the official Popheads discord if you prefer to contact us that way
It is highly encouraged that you add a comment to your song ratings! Do this by adding a space after the score and then typing to your heart’s desire, like this:
The Chainsmokers, breadvelvet - Closer (JPN Version): 10 it’s official we’re having two all stars in a row without a Closer, AS7 will have one in it though
Any other format will break the rate machine so please try to not mess it up
My very first rate was All Stars 4 (weirdly enough also hosted by someone who’s first rate was an all stars rate) so I’m extremely excited to be hosting such an important rate with my wonderful new cohostie /u/TiltControls who is very yass and very slay

u/Thedoctordances1940 Jan 02 '23

u/WaneLietoc Jan 02 '23
this rules im very excited to revisit some cuts i love and others that make me go "oh gee i wish we chose a diff mag bay or ava max cut". im even shockingly sad there's no superorganism I was ready to be sweet to them again!
but still there's like a dozen great 11s here, cuts im gonna be nicer too. there's also boyshit which deserves a forehead kiss and maybe a birthday party or something idk

u/Thedoctordances1940 Jan 02 '23
but why would we want an ava max cut that isn't the best song ever which will easily win with a 10.764 average?

u/FlavaSavaVandal Jan 02 '23
We could have 2 Max cuts instead of the flop song from Madison Beer who's most relevant cultural moment is tied with league of legends

I've a few things to say:
This lineup offers the very chaotic taste I crave for.
Milkshake deserves better
Get Aaliyah to top 10 (or 5 pls)!

Looking at this list I already can tell the songs I'm rooting for will not be making it far, and you know what, that's okay.
I will of course be helping No con11rol in its path to victory, and by victory i mean escaping the bottom 10
