Do people like me who posted their top tens earlier in the thread need to choose again? Or are they already counted?

Deadline for submitting entries - December 10th, 2012.
I hope the compilation work is over and we have the 100 with us before New Year's Eve. It should be a fitting New Year gift from the good ol' Doc Faustus to HDC.

Thank you for all of your submissions, folks. We have received an overwhelming number of entries.
Compilation work starts from today. Will keep you posted on the progress and developments as they happen, before chiseling out the final top 100.

I have completed the first round of compiling. 50 books have made the cut so far.
We need 50 more. And for this, I need your collective help. As many as 145 entries have ended up being nominated ONCE. I will need you to back up some of these choices, to make it into the final tally. Since we need 50 out of a possible 145, we will tackle this with batches of 5 - five master lists of 29 nominations in number. You will have to select 10 nominations, out of the 29 posted, to back them up with your support. You may post your choices in this thread, or through PM to me. If you feel a particular book/short story/poem doesn't deserve to make the cut (out of these lists), feel free to post it along with your reasons. Vice versa, if you feel that a particular book/short story/poem DESERVES to make the cut, post your reasons why. If you get enough people to agree with you, it will be in. Please don't select a written work just because you nominated it, but look at the overall picture and see if it is a fitting entry to be marked permanently in a Top 100 list. Remember, quality comes first. Here we go with the first list of 29 nominations. All the best choosing, folks! The First Batch A Clockwork Orange - Anthony Burgess A Warning To The Curious - M R James Abraham Lincoln, Vampire Hunter - Seth Grahame-Smith Adrift on The Haunted Seas - William Hope Hodgson And Then There Were None/Ten Little Indians - Agatha Christie Annabel Lee - Edgar Allen Poe (poem) Ariel - Sylvia Plath (poems) Batman: the Long Halloween - Jeph Loeb (comic book) Black Man With a Horn - T.E.D. Klein Bleak House - Charles Dickens Blood Meridian - Cormac McCarthy Books of Blood series - Clive Barker (collections) Brain - Robin Cook Cabal - Clive Barker Carrie - Stephen King Catch 22 - Joseph Heller Cell - Stephen King Children of the Kingdom - T.E.D. Klein Coma - Robin Cook Complete Stories and Poems of Edgar Allan Poe Crime And Punishment - Fyodor Dostoyevsky Dagon and other Macabre Tales - H.P. Lovecraft Darkly Dreaming Dexter - Jeff Lindsay Der Struwwelpeter - Heinrich Hoffmann (graphical book) Desperation - Stephen King Duncan's Diary: Birth of a Serial Killer - Christopher C. Payne Dune - Frank Herbert Eyebrows and Other Fish - Anthony Scally Fengriffen: A Chilling Tale - David Case
