I like how these lists are shaping up. It seems like Nic35, El Barto, and I are forming very similar lists that take bits and pieces from the DTF community, we've got DTVT with a more prog-oriented list, Numbers with a heavy metal list, Ravenheart with his indie/goth stuff, and the rest with bands and artists I don't really know about. This shall be interesting.

Very, and you are correct. I dig the fact that we are forming different lists with different tastes. It will eventually lead to a sweet contest. Granted, I will diverge from the heavy soon enough. I want to have a wide spectrum of stuff. Better for everyone.

Anyway, on the off chance I win this, I would like to propose something. Whoever wins should be able to advance to the next draft.

I like your idea. Since the next draft should be the favorite artists or albums, this sould be fun.

Oh, and btw, in the future, I think it would be awesome if once you use a band, it can never be used again. Think of all the FFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUs that will happen once people use DT, PT, Opeth, PoS, etc. It would also lead to some more thinking and interesting bands.

Ħ · « **Reply #149 on:** August 06, 2011, 09:04:39 PM »

Or, if this is really popular, we could have the 8 winners from the first 8 contests compete.

Nic35 · « **Reply #150 on:** August 06, 2011, 09:05:21 PM »

But our lists wouldn't change. Maybe 1 or 2 songs each, but still.

73109 · « **Reply #151 on:** August 06, 2011, 09:06:52 PM »

We already have more than on DT, PT, and Rush. And it's not even half over.

Ħ · « **Reply #152 on:** August 06, 2011, 09:07:37 PM »

Or hey, maybe once a song is used, it can't even be used for subsequent contests. As we have more and more contests, we'll really flesh out DTF's tastes.

73109 · « **Reply #153 on:** August 06, 2011, 09:08:42 PM »

That'd be intense.

Ravenheart · « **Reply #154 on:** August 06, 2011, 09:09:24 PM »

Doubtful. Many people won't be very interested in going out of their comfort zones, which is understandable.

Edit: Oh yeah, also:

Anathema - One Last Goodbye

73109 · « **Reply #155 on:** August 06, 2011, 09:10:44 PM »

What I'm worried about it people judging. People will be more likely to vote for a song they know rather than one they don't that is possibly 46788765678x better.

Ħ · « **Reply #156 on:** August 06, 2011, 10:13:41 PM »

I think that adds to it. That's why I'm picking songs that I both love and think that DTF loves.

After this round, after I had picked fucking Dogs, I was going to diverge quite a bit. My only thought of strategy was making sure I got the ones that others might pick. I'm largely out of that now, as I suspect others are. My guess is that 5-8 are pretty unique for the three of us.

I think this would be a very interesting format to do only DT songs, and also picking whole albums.

I'll update the OP and make my pick manana.

You know, that word loses a lot of what is supposed to be without the little hat thing. I read it like banana but with an m.

Riceball · « **Reply #160 on:** August 07, 2011, 12:51:58 AM »

Its gonna be pretty interesting to see who comes last as well as first, should shape how people approach this kind of game in the future. I'd be interested in a game where theres a fixed pool of songs (like 64 DT tracks) that are drafted. Nonetheless, this is great stuff so far; I've got a feeling I'll lose though.....

Yeah, I noticed that at the time. Normally I'm a real stickler for little details like that accent, but I'm a bit drunk and not real inclined to hunt down the ascii code.

I'm glued to this thread even though I'm not participating (yet hopefully)

73109 · « **Reply #163 on:** August 07, 2011, 07:10:29 PM »

Who's up? I gotta draft to lose.

Nic35 · « **Reply #164 on:** August 07, 2011, 07:13:11 PM »

I think it's Barto's turn.

73109 · « **Reply #165 on:** August 07, 2011, 07:16:30 PM »

*sigh* Old people and their senility.

El Barto · « **Reply #166 on:** August 08, 2011, 12:53:40 PM »

Close to the Edge.

Nic35 · « **Reply #167 on:** August 08, 2011, 04:53:51 PM »

Now the real competition begins. We all picked awesome songs, but now the big titles are out so we should see more obscure songs.

Just like in any drafts, the three or four first picks aren't as much important as your following ones.
