Fediverse Vote: Rank your top 10 Favourite Series (piefed.social)

The community seems big enough across lemmy now, with a lot of active lurkers and posters. Rather than making a Google Survey like r/television does for its yearly vote - that doesn't capture nuance and possibly provide enough shows to account for taste variety, I've decided to simply ask people to list their top 10 favourite shows. Your 10th choice will give the show 1 point, your 9th will give it to 2 points etc with the 1st choice getting 10 points. Eurovision style.

I'll reply to all comments acknowledging that I've recorded them.
