Lightbulb Damien Rice Song Game

So, instead of an elmination game where people post more than once and it becomes the a few people posting all the time deciding the winner.. i was thinking maybe we could do it a little bit differently... like so...

All the songs would be listed, i'll use 9 as an example...

9 crimes 0
the animals were gone 0
elephant 0
rootless tree 0
dogs 0
coconut skins 0
me, my yoke and i 0
grey room 0
accidental babies 0
sleep don't weep 0

and beside them is the current point value... now, everyone gets to post once, and u have 10 points to spend as u wish... (not sure what a good value is, so i thought 10 maybe...) u can add them all to one song u really like, or u can distribute them how ever u like... but be sure to make it clear like this...

9 crimes 0
the animals were gone 0
elephant 3 +3
rootless tree 4 +4
dogs 0
coconut skins 3 +3
me, my yoke and i 0
grey room 0
accidental babies 0
sleep don't weep 0

so we know where ur points went and how many... makes it easier to catch mistakes... this is a one post time thing, so we don't have people voting like crazy.. when the posting stops, we have a winner... it can still go on, but will generally come to a stop...

Making sure people post once is the only issue i can see coming from this, maybe having the first post edited each time would help, but i think this would be a good/fun lil game to do for the unreleased or all of his songs infact(no covers), and see which one gets crowned with the most votes...

wat do u think?

A lot of those have been released

I guess there's nowhere else to put them in a competition though.
