JoeJoe Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 Sad to say but I don't see it for her this year. I don't think they want her in. Voting hasn't been working since the first time when all of a sudden Janet went from being at the top to being at the bottom smh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlackCat1989 Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 Fan voting doesn't matter It really doesn't. Even if Janet was #1 on the fan vote that does not guarantee she will get it. There are what 800 other voters!!!! If Janet gets in this year will she even attend? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are what 800 other voters!!!! If Janet gets in this year will she even attend? Yes. And the fan vote amounts to 1 of the (roughly) 800 voters. That's .12% So the top five artists get 1 vote.. doesn't matter if 900 million people voted, the Top 5 will still get one vote in the "election" Edited December 15, 2016 by Game 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J. Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 The winner of the fan vote for the last 4 inductions wound up being inducted. Fan voting does matter.There's probably just a strong correlation between the two, but it is possible the voters could be swayed by the outcome of a popular vote 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black Eagle Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 There's probably just a strong correlation between the two, but it is possible the voters could be swayed by the outcome of a popular vote Fan vote is considered because it represents the public, maybe not the entire general public, but the public nonetheless. You have to factor in what the general public wants during the decision-making process, considering the Rock Hall is for the public. Fan vote just gives them insight into who the general public wants in the Hall. It isn't the sole deciding factor though, because the top five who win the fan vote isn't necessarily inducted. But for someone to say it doesn't matter at all is just ridiculous. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rock & Roll Hall of Game Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 (edited) Math doesn't lie.. the "fan vote" is literally worth .12% of the total votes.The fact that the fan votes correlate with the inductees is just coincidence. You made up your own facts based on your unsubstantiated opinion "the voters use it to guide them". You can't prove that they do but I can prove that the fan vote is worthless its Opinion loosely based on history vs. Facts based on a simple mathematical equation Edited December 17, 2016 by Game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dlite Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 the fan votes are just the result of 'rock purist' who are anti other genres of music. nwa was like at the bottom of the fan votes last year when they got in.do yall really think 70s rockers have that big of an online presence to dominate fan votes like that? its the collective of anti other genres of music movements that wins these online votes. all the acts that won those fan polls were gonna get inducted anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DasSad Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 She wouldn't have been ready to perform by April anyway. Their last 2 choices in the hip hop category have been head scratchers. NWA only 2 albums and PAC who was more influential away from the mic. What is this committee looking at. Journey was a horrific band Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Journey was a horrific band Tupac is definitely deserving but so is Janet (moreso). But whatever. It doesn't even make sense. 2016 fucked most people over again 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
