    That's a pretty small change. Is it even statistically significant?

    n=112 in February. so no, not significant, it's only a move of one or two votes.

    I think it debunks the myth that no matter what year or what the lineup is that people's view of it will increase as the festival gets closer. I think that's what you were kinda sorta alluding to when you said:

    Dropping and heading lower (not there are that many votes so far). The average so far for March is ~ 3.9. Understandable given wallpaper and mea.

    As time goes on, I get less excited about it. Knowing we don't get the dome and we haven't gotten any word on the Do Lab either doesn't help ratings. (Not that the Do Lab ever has a spectacular lineup, but anything helps)

    I'd be more excited if we had one more decent headliner.

    Votes are skewed by the glowstick set, which no one else cares about anyway. Time for a pruning, Coachella. Wheat from the chaff.

    The non-EDM lineup is stellar, and I care the least about EDM, so I gave it full approval.

    I'm disappointed about the shitty EDM but it wasn't really on my mind when I first saw the lineup and now that I've discovered other top notch indie and rock bands in the undercard I'm still excited. I'll still be dancing, just not surrounded by rave kids in the Sahara.

    The dome can go fuck itself. It turned the food court area into a dubstep and do lab shit noise sandwich and ruined all my spicy pie.

    I can't believe people are getting less excited about the line up as the fest gets closer. Doesn't make any sense to me.

    Do these statistics take 2011-2012 Hater Inflation into account? Because the uptick has been exponential.
