Have not read all the posts so maybe my Q has already been answered ... but ..

Why are prog-related and proto-prog excluded from the Top Progressive album charts ?

If these artists are to be included in the progressive archives, then surely they should also be included in this feature !

Or at least I should be allowed to include them for my own purpose !?

Would be nice to see this list extended to 500 ... or even 1,00 entries LOL

Yeah proto prog and prog related are not actually prog albums, only related to the genre.

you want the list extended to 500 entries or even 100 - er...... you mean 1000. Its been done on other sites.

I don't think of prog as a genre in terms of the diverse music categorised at PA (I think the prog term overused). And even if we were to consider all of the acts in the so-called Prog categories Prog-worthy, not all of the albums in the Prog categories would be considered Prog. I would also say that one could very well consider various albums in Prog Related and Proto Prog to be Prog-category worthy. I do. If only we had album tagging (with all users being able to tag them) while keeping the act in its current category. Furthermore, we've had various acrts moved from Prog Related to Prog categories -- this does not change the nature of individual albums, but it does change how the site/ system deals with them.

let me recheck, but I fixed a bug so , from my understanding, they were not meant to be listed before..

But I will re-check and post back here

Prog On !

bugs are cool, without bugs I'd be pretty much out of a job Geek

how is pendragon already on the top albums of 2011 if it hasn't been officially released yet???

How does the updated algorithm results looks like ? Thumbs Up

or

Prog On !

What about a maximum rating value option? Maybe not very useful, but just a thought.

God appears, and God is light,
To those poor souls who dwell in night;
But does a human form display
To those who dwell in realms of day.

Pink Floyd, Jethro Tull and Yes are all overrated! Even though Spirogyra albums score 4.48 and 4.41 they have been left out of this list? Why. If they had more reviews they would probably be in top 5.

Jazz-rock conspiracy? Zappa and Miles played at the same festivals in the
summer of '69 right BEFORE Hot Rats AND Bitches Brew were recorded.

Also would you like to submit some MP3s for streaming Finn? I would be happy to stream them.
