I received the confirmation of the votes of the other friend of anamnesis from Twitter @IceBlood34 - thanks (I'll be fine to add the points for the remaining 3 sets of votes including this one).

That voter does seem to have 2 years with only 2 players chosen though I see doesn't he?
1985: Platini - Maradona - Idk ('I don't know', I guess it means)
1997: Ronaldo - Romario - Idk

I found his Twitter-post by the way actually:
Mr.Idolo on X: "My top 3 in Ballon d'or since 1946 to 2023. I could forget someone & sometimes it was close between some names https://t.co/OKuOaNzKAf" / X

If you want IceBlood I can allocate 4 points to Platini/Ronaldo and 3 points (or 2 points?) to Maradona/Romario for those years (rather than 6 points and 4 points respectively).

Or an attempt could be made, involving anamnesis, to try to get a 3rd name chosen for 1985 and 1997 still maybe....

It won't make a lot of difference anyway (especially for 1985). But I'm aware I guess that those years in his list don't fully meet the criteria you/we have set out in a way.

Remaining 4 sets of votes (including the one @Bin1250 provided) I should have said.

I'll start by adding in those votes of Bin1250's acquaintance now actually, beginning with the 1930s....(every update following will for the moment just factor in the votes of this voter, so I'll still need to account for the other guys anamnesis has mentioned in further posts...as well as probably at least making an adjustment to the 2000 list for Titanlux's newest post relating to that one, if applicable (I need to check if it's necessary, comparing to his original list he sent me) as that seems suitable, and Titanlux was even summarising decades ending with 1950, 1960, 1970, 1980, 1990, 2000 etc (not eg 1999))

I'll leave you to add on the points for 2023 then @IceBlood34 when you add them on for the 4 friends of anamnesis too for that year.

The next updates I'll do will be to incorporate the votes of the 'Velvet d'Or' from one of anamnesis's friends - I'll leave 1997 with no 5th place unless I get any notification about a new choice there (Bergkamp was accidentally placed at 4th and 5th on the spreadsheet provided by this voter)....

And when it comes to this voter I am assuming at the moment I will add on 4 points for 1st and 2 points for 2nd re: the 1985 and 1997 years, unless a 3rd choice is provided, or you say something different IceBlood (I guess that would be kind of in line with our guidelines since it's within a full set of votes albeit with 3 choices per year anyway; and it would mean half of the points for 1st and 2nd that would normally be allocated).

Like I said, I'll at least factor in any adjustments necessary for Titanlux's 2000 voting too (I'll do that within the 2000s update for the last one of anamnesis's friends I add on the points for).

I'm not sure (about whether it's all of them, or whether it's in exact order) but at first glance I see a video on his timeline now that looks like it perhaps has all of Zico's free-kick goals in chronological order by the way!

I see it's a bit of a complex situation. Are you also planning to do the years 2010 and 2020?

Yes, my idea is to continue indefinitely, so it is a long-term project. Right now, I have “beta” (or “gamma”, or “delta”...) rankings of all the seasons of the 21st century, which will undergo some changes (I don't think they will be extremely significant). If you like, I can publish the top 5 of all those seasons, including 23-24) knowing that in a nearer or more distant future they will be revised, at least once.

Ok, I can check these against previous votes allocated to you mate for up to 2021/22 (relating to 2022 Ballon d'Or Revisited) - I guess IceBlood will be able to do that for the final two years as well (which are kind of seasonal Ballon d'Or Revisited editions I think now aren't they indeed, in line with the new Ballon d'Or methodology).

PDG1978 · Sep 14, 2024

I think actually you can just add Titanlux's 2022/23 and 2023/24 votes on as normal @IceBlood34 because I don't think there was any previous vote by Titanlux that you had incorporated into the 2023 standings for example was there (I don't seem to find a previous vote by you @Titanlux since the 2021/22 one anyway).

This was Titanlux's provisional vote for this year/season:
1999-2000
Figo
Zidane
Rivaldo
Shevchenko
Henry

So, assuming I didn't already do it (I will check when I make the final update but I think the last adjustment I made was probably for 1999 re: Titanlux's votes, although I have a slight doubt about it) the points adjustments to be made will be:
Henry +1, Raul +1, Shevchenko -2

Ok mate, I'll tag you to give you the go ahead and also be clear when I'm adding in the votes of the final voter provided by anamnesis.

I can compare the provisional and final votes of Titanlux up until 2022 myself and leave you to add his 2023 and 2024 votes (I think there weren't provisional ones made before like I said, but I guess Titanlux or you will correct that if it's not right). I can find the 2021/22 post he made, and previously he had posted for 2000/01 onwards here:
https://www.bigsoccer.com/threads/b...-bigsoccer-users.2119696/page-4#post-40323447
I haven't yet compared to his newest post, but I'll do that while I'm making these updates at some point.
