Yes I'm doing my personal countdown and doing survivors for the Hot Top 10. I really don't know how I did the countdown last year with school and everything, but I did. I can't see myself bringing this back because it would be hard to do and time is a major issue.
Even though I go to school, I can still update my Top 12 Rock Videos daily (except on Sundays... for now). Wish you luck for attempting to do the countdown. I will never drop mine or go on stupid TRL hiatuses with the exception of Christmas, Thanksgiving, and New Years Day.
Note: I pretty much stopped doing this countdown because it was too time consuming for me and my social life and personal life are so much different now than they were a year ago, so it's just different terms.
To those who think that updating a personal countdown is just as hard as a voting based countdown need to realize that it's not. A voting based countdown takes forever to add up the votes, which is one of the main reasons that I stopped doing this countdown. If you have to add votes for your countdown, then you'll realize why some of us chose to stop doing our countdowns. If you vote one day, and then not the next, then that person who is doing the countdown has to re-add your votes and then count them up however they may do so.
I really didn't want to end this countdown, but as you all saw, I tried to do different things towards the end of its run and it just didn't work out. Not to mention, I had some survivors in the Game Forum and my own personal countdown to deal with, so I had to let go of something.
