Does this mean if we haven't posted our list yet, we need to get it up, or just that the ones already posted will be locked in? Thanks!
Just that the ones I get to will be locked in. I doubt I'll even get to all the ones posted so far since I still need to add up the AOTY weekly thread before I put it on winter break and start counting up this thread. Everyone has until New Years Day to get their personal lists in

Awesome, thanks, I haven't been able to get as much reassessment listening in this week as I'd planned on.
