Onno - Anathema - Untouchable part 1
5 points
Judging by the number of Anathema fans on DTF, I think everyone in this roulette knows this song, so I don't have to be creative with the writeup the number of points speaks for itself.

Oh hells yes. I had a chinese friend stay at mine this weekend, and when I put this on this morning, she insisted I write down the band and the album so she could find it later.

I have never listened to Anathema.

Schweet, performed a lot better that round!

And you're right that Insomnia is pretty straightforward for Haken, but I want to make sure it fit the theme, and that's one of their more guitar-driven songs.

Glad the Anathema scored highly as well, that's a wonderful song!

Shut up, I'm busy judging

It's just that there are ~~three~~ four 9 minute songs and I won't rush things

I meant the band I sent you. Correct the mistake of not listening to it sooner.

I did. I've already judged your entry

Guess jazz isnt your thing. I got an amazing song for this round. It's kinda jazz but I know 100% you'll enjoy it. You'll see.

Oh, it's a really great song so don't be afraid to send me more in that vein, it's just that I liked the others better

MoraWintersoul · « **Reply #115 on:** February 17, 2013, 03:49:49 PM »

Standings:
Scorpion - 10 points
Dr. DTVT - 10 points
ariich - 8 points
Mystery Participant - 7 points
Elite - 7 points
Lolzeez - 7 points
YtseBitsySpider - 7 points
Onno - 7 points
Ruba - 5 points

I think my arbitrary scoring system contributed to the fact this is really close

hopefully it'll get better in the following rounds. Some of you, start underperforming, fast

Dr. DTVT · « **Reply #116 on:** February 17, 2013, 05:04:42 PM »

As long as you have a "must" system where the each round two songs get 2 points, two songs get 3 points, four get 2, five get 2, and one gets 6, we should eventually spread out. It's when people are afraid to give bad scores to good songs everyone clumps up.

It's also why I've tried to get rid of scoring in my roulettes. Live or die.

MoraWintersoul · « **Reply #117 on:** February 17, 2013, 05:09:31 PM »

Eh, when I participate in a roulette I don't usually worry about how I'm scored as long as I'm not a bore to the person judging. So I just assume everyone's like that and give low points to good songs. The point is, DTFers know their shit but some two songs will have the bottom tier because some songs have to be in the bottom tier. That doesn't mean I hated them. Usually, when I hate something, I will openly say I did

Dr. DTVT · « **Reply #118 on:** February 17, 2013, 05:18:27 PM »

I was telling you there was nothing wrong with your score system. Given enough rounds, we should spread out. It just happens that the people who did poorly in round 1 found their way in round 2 and vice versa.

Yeah, it was 1AM and my train of thought went to shit, sorry about that

Ruba · « **Reply #120 on:** February 18, 2013, 12:28:21 AM »

I think I should re-sign. Only 5 points, damnit.

Anyway, if I'm going to lose, better to do with style and go till the end.

If I send an instrumental, can it have spoken samples?

It's only been two rounds

Yes, absolutely.

Ruba · « **Reply #122 on:** February 18, 2013, 02:14:32 AM »

This round is going to be tough. Because I can't send Rush for lyrics and I have used Bruce Dickinson, I have some obscure songs in Finnish which would need translation and stuff like

"You probably lick more ass than anyone
I guess you like the taste of shit on your tongue" (Ministry - Crumbs)

, which I like, but I don't know about anybody else.

And I rarely like instrumental music and the most usual occasions; Rush, DT and Pink Floyd are out, I don't really have anything which would score more than 2 points.

I'll think about something, but my expectations are low.

ariich · « **Reply #123 on:** February 18, 2013, 11:43:41 AM »

I agree with the Doc. Having just run (well, co-run) a roulette where I just scored each song, it was really hard to make myself give some lower scores. Ranking it can be brutal, but makes it more fun, and like Doc says it can make more difference in the rankings.

YtseBitsySpider · « **Reply #124 on:** February 18, 2013, 12:48:53 PM »

I had no problem scoring low.

ariich · « **Reply #125 on:** February 18, 2013, 03:30:00 PM »

Round 3 sent!

Scorpion · « **Reply #126 on:** February 18, 2013, 03:48:11 PM »

This is good advice for everyone. Most PM's aren't worth keeping longer than a few months. Don't be an e-hoarder.

Depressing update: due to not having access to a computer with a fast enough internet connection to actually buffer youtube stuff, and no headphones, judging is postponed til firstthinginthemorning.
