legit considering running a mini roulette because by the time I'll get around to hosting a proper one I'd be at the top of the wait list again anyways

I probably wouldnt be able to join another train roulette because he's listened to too much of what I've been posting about tbh
Well my banned list has grown massively but I dont think I checked out a ton of your music, not counting roulette stuff maybe 2 or 3 bands? Idk

Yeah, I don't know if I have enough music yet to attempt a defense of my crown so soon! :lol

Likely not :lol by the sound of it during the first one you got away pretty lucky with first place considering you wete pretty much sending leftover bands at that point. But somehow it worked amazingly well and God Is An Astronaut is actually one of my favorite bands at the moment.

Honestly, I got insanely lucky that no one had sent Lorde (I guess that was right before she became a quasi-DTF-roulette-fave), that I had kept Tay back, and that I found the right GIAA song to fit in with those two artists to make a concept. You're definitely a bigger GIAA fan than I am by now, actually! I actually just have the one album.

I'd have to look at what is on your updated banned list. I have a few new artists from the championship. But I think I'd have a hard time and probably would not be able to do it.

I'm pretty much ready yeah, so I'm up when kade is done with his already then?

Though I am going on a vacation for a week, roughly one month and a half from now, so if I go now there will be some delay at one point in the roulette if that's alright.

A week isn't too big of a deal I guess, if you think you can maintain a good pace before/after. Also it's not necessary to wait for Kade to finish as he is on his final round, so if you're going up next you can begin ASAP.

I suppose I should get my shit together and get a list of songs prepped.

Cool, I'll have it up today!

Nope. I guess I can give this away since I'm starting today anyway: going for 10-12 participants like last time. First come, first served.

When I said this I'd actually forgotten that you were on the list waiting at the top. So if you still want to slot in with a mini roulette let me know. splent is probably going to be the next person to finish up.

It'd mean taking you off the list and putting you back on at the bottom to wait for your next full-length roulette, but the waiting list is less than 6 months long and you didn't want to run your v3 this year anyway, so it all works out.

Can you chuck me on the bottom of this thing. If it looks like I won't have the time when my turn rolls around can I just let the next person go in front of me  :biggrin:

Need to try it at least once.

Normally I don't add people back onto the waiting list for another until their current roulette has ended. For now I've put you on the list with a smaller font so I remember, but if anyone else asks to be put on the list between now and the end of your v1, they will be put in ahead of you (though that probably won't happen anyway).

Just a quick update from me: I said a while back that I would have time to start my roulette in early September or at the end of August. As it turns, I now have 2 jobs simultanously during a few weeks in September and I'm organising a small event in the same period. I doubt I'll have my hands free to run a roulette properly before sometime during Novemver. So, as of now, I'll probably choose to opt in and do my roulette when there's a free spot near the end of November.

I mean, I have most of it planned already (and scratched some original ideas because they were crap). It's just a matter of finding the time to actually run it :lol.
