INSTRUCTIONS FOR VOTING WILL BE GIVEN TOMORROW.

REMEMER WHATEVER THERE IS ON THE SHORTLIST STAYS PUT UNLESS AN APPROPIATE REASON GIVEN. PLEASE RESPECT THE DECISION MADE BY MYSELF, YOU AND OTHER MEMBERS IN ANY BEMANI COMMUNITY AS THERE IS NOT ENOUGH MEMBERS CONTRIBUTED TO THE DISCUSSION BEFORE THE SHORTLIST IS ANNOUNCED.

Voting will begin very soon. Until then, share your views and tell us what you think of the final shortlist.

---

Wow, I should have been following the last topic more closely. A thing called LOVE and Horatio are two of my favorite BGVs

---

First page is updated. Now the final shortlist for GF/DM is now up. Voting will not start yet.

---

Why is GMD not in the iidx worst list and why aren't the best songs in the best songs list?

Those songs are from the original beatmania, not IIDX. In fact, Catch It! never made into a IIDX game.

---

Well let's put it this way. We all know at least some people gave choices for this but it is not enough. So for that, I had asked other people and all had their different opinion. So what I did is I go through all of the choices and include my opinion to make it final.

I do apologise if this had to look so bad. Unfortunately that's the way it is I'm afraid since you guys didn't contribute much to the discussion before.

---

PREFERENCE

These are the only far worst songs in the whole beatmania series fans come up with. I'll change it.

First page is updated again. I am now working on 'Pop N Music' at the moment so keep an eye out guys. ;)

---

Except for the fact that Catch it! is good. Not to mention...


No female DJs. What kind of faggotry is this?

---

First page is updated again. I am now working on 'Pop N Music' at the moment so keep an eye out guys. ;)

---

Needs more tits

Edit: ninja'd

It's also funny that, despite I named a handful of songs for the Best GFdm songs, none of them are here, and they were replaced with GFdm songs that can also be found on DDR, lol.

---

The awards are handed out by whom?

My lovely assistant, Vanna White.

---

I like where this is going.

Making this final clear and i'll let you have your say. It's just to be double sure. No regrets.

---

Your decisions don't balance out with our decisions.

I know that but that is final. If only I had more of you guys contribute discussions and share your choices, the better.

---

So basically it's LBS's Favourite Things 2011.

---

Lol. Not really. Retract what I said last time and what I really mean is that the final shortlist is made by me and all those nominated are the ones decided by you guys not me.

I would have been selfish to do that way.
