Say management wanted 1,000 votes for a show before they decided to release it, but they got 980 votes and that single show was ranked #1 on the list, do you really think they would say, "Geez we'd love to release it, but we still need 20 more votes..."?

So whether we know the Top 10 shows or not, I'd still only vote for the shows I wanted. Maybe the Top 10 would enlighten me on a few I didn't consider, or maybe not. I mean, say LT8 from Alpine was not yet released but we found out it was topping our voting list -- I wouldn't jump on that bandwagon and vote for it. I'd stick with my vote for Hershey '04 and carry on my merry way.

Releasing SOME information is pretty harmless.
You're right, but seeing as though this is still a survey of opinion, and in all surveys you must eliminate as many variables as possible (bias), it must be done. Any science majors here, anyone?
