Looks like the OP needs to be updated.
Sorry, I hadn't checked into the forum for a couple of days, it's all up-to-date now. :tup

I may want to run a short barebones roulette in a couple months. 8-10 rounds, 10 players (elimination round if 11+ sign up), single song entries, just something fun and easy.

You made it thru all the best songs/albums/artists from your last roulette already!?!?!

No - this would just be for fun. The last two were for discovering new music, which I'm still actively doing - but I like the competitive spirit of roulettes so a quick and simple one would take no time to do :)

I'll be setting up my next roulette soon... the only thing I'm struggling to decide is number of rounds. 7 or 8?

Screw it, yeah let's give it a go. Should make it a similar size to my last roulette, which was manageable.

Looks like Tomislav is getting close to his final round. As my overeager post on the last page might have indicated, I'm ready to go and plan on posting my thread once Tomislav starts his last round.

Format will be very straightforward: It's going to be a mini-roulette with 3 open rounds and an EP round. No limit on the number of participants, and in fact I would be thrilled with a larger number. I will narrow the field to a manageable number of finalists for the EP round, but other than that, no qualifiers/eliminations.

Current direction of my tastes is pretty hard into prog metal and quite classic prog/neo-prog curious, FWIW.

Hope folks are interested?

A quick skim thru your last roulette (hot-linking the results was very helpful!), and that's a lot of holes.  Not often you see Zeppelin, Floyd, Genesis, Queensryche all eligible.

Count me in for a quickie.

Great to see so many people interested in my quickie.  :biggrin:

A quick skim thru your last roulette (hot-linking the results was very helpful!), and that's a lot of holes.  Not often you see Zeppelin, Floyd, Genesis, Queensryche all eligible.

FWIW, there should still be a lot of holes, but I will be tightening up the banned list a bit this time to prevent repeating many artists from the last roulette.

Just letting everyone know that Bizkit has informed me that he would like his roulette to go on hold for the time being, given the situation. :-[ Hopefully it can be picked up at a later time when things have settled, but for now the next person on the list has been given the go-ahead.

I got the go ahead so I'll be starting one soon. 5 rounds, then an EP round, then an album round based on one artist. Considering a concept album for the final round. Any takers?

Maybe.  Should be easy(ier) not to have to submit 30 songs/bands in a roulette.

 :lol

The banned list will be relatively short for this one. Most of the artists submitted in the last one will still be eligible, only a few I won't allow. The first 5 rounds are more about fun than me actively seeking new music (still combing through artists from the last one, naturally), and the last rounds are all about being creative.
