Alright, so I've been noodling the poll idea for a bit now and have a few thoughts on the issue.
First, I think if we're going to do something similar to the DJ list, the best way to go about it would be to run a poll similar to the TA top 250 poll (but maybe only a top 50? I'm not sure) and refresh is once per month i.e. Everyone can vote once per month, at the end of the month each poll/thread is closed after having the end results posted, and the next months poll begins.
My only concern with this methodology is that the poll could become a novelty that not many people participate in each month. It is by this logic that I'd suggest considering the following:
- An annual poll would more than likely ensure significant participation as it could be highly publicized on TA (cross forum).
- A bi-annual (twice yearly) poll would display change/reflect new talent only slightly more often, but may still be infrequent enough to not discourage participation.
- A quarterly poll may more accurately reflect change over a shorter period of time, but participation may suffer for the same reason a monthly poll would.
In the end, I think annual or bi-annual polling would be best; It would at very least ensure higher participation as people wouldn't "get tired" polling. The less frequently it occurs, the longer you can promote the poll, the more likely people who don't frequent the promo forum will find their way here and listen to some things.
The only other issue that I have to raise is how do we keep this poll to TA DJ's and avoid some of the "bigger names" that frequent TA from dominating the poll time in and time out? In general I guess I feel if we're going to do this poll, we should try to do it in a manner that will likely help promote up and coming talent, and not reinforce the status of well established DJ's who consistently place in the DJ Mag or TA DJ poll each year. I honestly don't know a good way to deal with this as all too often a TA DJ/producer finds a fair amount of success - And that's no reason to exclude someone who's been a contributing member of this forum for a good amount of time.
Just some thoughts... Hopefully we can ration this out sometime soon
