Ties are the laziest--err, easiest--solution. Remove whatever is definitely not going to be eliminated at this point; everything left over is tied & eliminated simultaneously. I wound up with three massive sets of tied songs and it was fine; a 20 way tie here, a 10 way tie there, and bam everything not in the top ten has been eliminated in two quick steps.

(A 40 way tie for first would be unorthodox, but not technically forbidden. You can do whatever you want. Obviously replace made up numbers with however many songs you want, don't go with a 20 way tie unless you want one.).

You also have the ability to retroactively un-eliminate songs. You've done, I've done it. If an elimination turns out to be in error, just... ya know... fix it in post instead of stressing too much.

Things get messier if you refuse to do ties and refuse to retroactively fix things you changed your mind on. In that case, I went with the strategy of "repeatedly listening to every song I didn't want to cut, assigning points each listen, and using each song's average score to determine placement". Made sure the winner was the most consistent song, instead of what I was into at that exact moment... but it's a long process with no real pay off. Possibly fun and rewarding, but long and only fitting when you refuse to go with the tied option.
