It feels like there's less people voting now. I know I was against it before, but maybe we should start to gradually lower the limit down to 15 albums now? Might make things move a bit faster. Just a thought.

most of the albums on the list now are uninteresting to me, so I've been quiet. you guys voting down LHP can fuck right off though.
 
I'd support reducing the list size as well.

I don't think things are moving any faster or slower than usual. If anything, it's somewhat faster. Ulver got on with 40, and previous albums needed closer to 60 to get in. I think fewer people just voted recently due to NFL, etc.

I definitely do not support shrinking the list, since the problem (if any) is more likely people not seeing albums they care about on the list. In the early going there were more consensus choices, and a lot of stuff people agreed on, but now we have many of the classics in, and shrinking the list doesn't help people who don't know what to vote for.
 
yea I don't think shrinking helps either because when this project started there were far fewer people than now and it was already at 20 then, also I would say that things are going faster than they were 2-3 weeks ago
