I'm just wondering why it's 87 and not 84, 85, 86, 88, 89, 90, 91, 92, 93, 94, or another?

I guess 87 because that's about the first year since the 70s of Jarre & Kraftwerk when more than a minimal amount of good EDM (influenced at least) tracks came out.. before that it would have been a little too short of a TOTA contest. TOTAs for '88-'01 will come later, we go through them year by year. Since 2002 TOTAs have been already made on TA.

i chose '87 as it is the (official) beginning of acid house.
'86 will probably be held aswell due of the big demend.

people originally doubted that the '87 toty could be done, so i took the initiative.

Heh, i thought about that but doubted it would be that obvious.
