Hey guys,

Rich has given me the green light.. so here we go...

Not many rules

1. 7 rounds
2. Score scale. 1-10
3. I prefer mp3 to have the songs on the go. Spotify is the second best. You're good to go with Grooveshark and YouTube, too. (If there's a video, or a good live version of the song, I'd love you to give me a heads up)
4. No whining, no bitching, no nagging..
5. Timing is crucial...
6. If we spam the thread up, I will bold the relevant posts. (see rule #4)
7. Themes are listed below
8. Some songs are growers rather than instantly accessible. I might re-asses such songs if they grow on me during the course of the roulette. Scores can only get higher because of reassessment.
9. No pressure on me of any kind, it tends to backfire
10. Reviews will be short write ups, but you will get the point (see rule #4)
11. No PMs, only e-mails, even though it's a YT or whatever link.
subject line should include:
In the case of song submission:
Roulette - Round # - participant name - Artist name - Song name
example:
Roulette - Round 1 - lonestar- Dream Theater - Misunderstood
in the case of a a question
Roulette - Round # - participant name - question - a keyword
example:
Roulette - Round 1 - lonestar- question - I'm one whinny hippie bitch
12- After the submission, post here letting me know that you are in (no I have no problem with dirty jokes, have a go)
13- I appreciate short introductory write-ups about your submissions, and why you chose that particular piece
14- I am a busy woman, if I screw up something, like a song / a player name or whatever it may be, be kind as to send me an e-mail rather than bashing me publicly (also see rule #4)
15- Abide by the rules

Players:
Scorpion
elite
lonestar
Lolzeez
jingle
Ruba
~~kirknosehair~~ --> Ytse (Barry can join later on, if he likes)
Onno

If you changed your mind, let me know and fill the empty spot up quickly

Yay! But is there a banned list?

obscure · « **Reply #2 on:** March 19, 2013, 04:21:31 AM »

No banned list.... My last FM should give you an idea about what I am familiar with though... if you get the impression that I am missing out on / overlooking some songs even by those bands listed on my Last FM, do send them to me... I'll let you know if it's a no go...

Sco!

Nekov · « **Reply #10 on:** March 19, 2013, 07:34:34 AM »

Oh Nem, I just saw your new sig. Do you have any insider info on the new Ayreon album you wanna share with us?

obscure · « **Reply #11 on:** March 19, 2013, 07:43:35 AM »

to share? no luv.. that's why they confide in me

Nekov · « **Reply #12 on:** March 19, 2013, 08:13:46 AM »

Ok

obscure · « **Reply #13 on:** March 19, 2013, 08:17:47 AM »

awww.. please don't cry

lonestar · « **Reply #14 on:** March 19, 2013, 08:27:02 AM »

OK, count this guy in. One thing, I didn't see a time limit to the songs anywhere in the rules. Is there one?

obscure · « **Reply #15 on:** March 19, 2013, 08:29:57 AM »

oh hai

and nope there isn't..

lonestar · « **Reply #16 on:** March 19, 2013, 08:33:23 AM »

Cool. *sends Transcend, The Mind*

obscure · « **Reply #17 on:** March 19, 2013, 08:39:11 AM »

hahah good one

well, song length is one of the criterion I will use to assess your judgement. If it's a 20 minute song that can justify its length, what more can I ask for?. I have time to listen to songs

lonestar · « **Reply #18 on:** March 19, 2013, 08:51:08 AM »

And sent yo....

obscure · « **Reply #19 on:** March 19, 2013, 09:03:11 AM »
