Dr. DTVT's Peaceful, Euro-game styled roulette - Round 7 results

[Nekov]

It could easily be me. What I sent is very hit or miss

This. Trying to match the Doc tastes, being so different from mine, it's near to impossible for me.

Just as impossible as it is for a round to take less than 10 days around here.

I don't think you can match that level of impossibility.

[Sacul]

Don't give him those ideas .

[jingle.boy]

Let's fucking wrap this up already.

Who wants to take the over/under on this thing finishing by Christmas?  I'm leaning towards 'over' at this point.

[TAC]

This Christmas or next Christmas?

[Obfuscation]

You mean next Christmas 2016 or 2017?

[Sacul]

You're talking on this decade, right?

[lonestar]

I hope he realizes I'm in my late forties, I don't have that much time left man....

[TAC]

I hope he realizes I'm in my late forties, I don't have that much time left man....

Didn't you just turn 40 when this roulette started?

[jingle.boy]

I swear, if I was your Secret Santa, this would be your gift.

[Nekov]

So, 17 days since the results were posted. Is this some kind of record?

Apparently Mason gives about as many fuck's as I do at this point.

None.

[bl5150]

Well you can't say it hasn't been peaceful

Yeah, and it'll get there when it gets there!

[Dr. DTVT]

I'm sorry, it has been a very busy and stressful three weeks - way more than I'd like to discuss.  I can score the round soon without write-ups, except for the one I already wrote up.

[TAC]

Hope all is well, man.

[Dr. DTVT]

Round 7 – Cold
Sorry for the lack of write-ups.  I promise you I have a really good reason, but it is not one I’m going to disclose, but it has nothing to do with the quality of the songs.  Aside from one song, this was the strongest bottom of the round to date.
Sacul:  Obsidian Kingdom – Oncoming Dark/Through The Glass/Cinnamon Balls    7/8
TAC:  Shooting Star – Last Chance  2/8
Obfuscation: Immortal Technique – Dance With The Devil
This content of this song was really uncomfortable.  I don’t really care for rap.  I don’t relate to most of it.  My personality, lifestyle, and upbringing are pretty much the antithesis of most rap songs.  Call me cold, but I don’t want to hear about gang-banging, drug dealing, and life in the hood, even when it is presented like it is in this song where it is not glorified, but vilified.  The guy can rap.  I even liked the simple, minimalist music that was underneath it.  If someone told me Immortal Technique was their favorite musician, just based on this song I could easily respect that decision.  But I still can’t get into rap.  I don’t relate to it lyrically, even when the musical part isn’t drek.
1/8

senecadawg2: Gallowbriad – Stone of Rememberance  8/8
Nekov:  Pure Reason Revolution – The Twyncyn / Trembling Willows  6/8
jingle.boy: Kamelot – The Haunting (live)  4/8
lonestar: Prospekt – The Great Awakening 3/8
Scorpion: Caladan Brood – Wild Autumn Wind 5/8
Dark Castle:  The Atlas Moth – Coffin Varnish 7/8

Round theme winner: Dark Castle

Final Round - Epic

[senecadawg2]

I had a really good feeling about my submission. Glad you enjoyed it! 

Also, almost goes without saying but I feel like it should be said regardless- I hope everything is going alright with you.

[lonestar]

Well crap, I figured I was at a wash anyways, but that seals it. Sending right away, been holding this one...

[Dark Castle]

Ooo man Immortal Technique. That song gives me the chills.

[Dr. DTVT]

Ooo man Immortal Technique. That song gives me the chills.

Yeah, that song was really uncomfortable at the end.  As far as rap goes, it was good, I just can't relate to that, living in the ghettoes of academia.

[Nekov]

I was sure you'd like that toolish sound the song has (I'm assuming that's why you liked it)

Also this

Also, almost goes without saying but I feel like it should be said regardless- I hope everything is going alright with you.

Will send later today

[Sacul]

Ok, I went with a very risky choice. Sent.

[Nekov]

This was by far the hardest round. Sent

[TAC]

I sent. Do we send parameters in this round too?

[Dr. DTVT]

Send parameters.  No one is handicapped at this point too.

[Obfuscation]

Ooo man Immortal Technique. That song gives me the chills.

Yeah, that song was really uncomfortable at the end.  As far as rap goes, it was good, I just can't relate to that, living in the ghettoes of academia.

This was sorta the reaction I was expecting but I was just rolling the dice in this roulette and seeing the what the reaction would be.

[Scorpion]

Do you have an email that I can send to? The song I want to send isn't on YouTube.

[jingle.boy]

Sent. 

Goes without saying, but hang in pal.  You always got friends here.  And awesome music always gets the mind in a different (better) place.  You got lots of it this round!

[Sacul]

I'm a bit lost, but what happened with this one? I hope everything's ok.

[senecadawg2]

I hope everything's ok.

Me too

Perhaps we should just call the results final, as they stand in the public rankings 

[lonestar]

Nope, gotta finish or it doesn't count as a legit roulette win. You'd be at 8 with an '*' after it. 

[senecadawg2]

I think I've actually only won 6, but thanks for the bump 

[lonestar]

Ah, it's Zander with 7, and he's not really active anymore. So with a two win cushion, plus the inevitable 'w' in Ruslan's roulette, I think I can let you have this one, with an asterisk of course.

[Nekov]

Don't forget there's hidden points. Someone else might be the real winner
