Fuck...just realized Rich has tied me in the standings...I gotta take these things seriously for a bit and finally pass Seneca.
If and when Puppies feels able to return to his roulette, I'm somewhat hopeful I might win/have won that one too. I was in the lead and I put quite a bit of time and effort into my final concept album.

Ditto... except for being in the lead part.

I might do another one of these soon, anyone potentially interested? It'd be my normal bare-bones style, no themed rounds or complicated rules, just send songs and get scores. I might do the '20 minutes of music from an artist' thing again instead of single songs, though. It tended to make scoring and writeups a bit more work, but overall I think I got a better impression of the artists people were sending me.
i feel like i could send you anything and it would have as much a chance of doing great as doing terribly, which is the most fun kind of roulette so yeah i'm game

Thanks guys, seems like there's enough interest to get something going. Is there still a waiting list? I probably wouldn't be able to start for several weeks or so anyway.

TAC's is in the final round and probably just a few days from finishing.

Vmad's just entered the playoff rounds, so over half of the participants have just been eliminated and only 8 remain.  Not sure how Bolsters wants to count that. 

Metro's and Jamesman's just started.

425 has been AWOL for several months, so who knows whether anything will happen there, it's not counted as active even though someone bumped it back up. 

Sacul and jingle are next on the waiting list. 

Reaper's won't start 'til after the top 25 artist countdown ends at the earliest, which will be another month or so minimum. 

Soundscape is unknown for now, he said he'll let us know when he's ready.

I'll be all up in it. I think I've entered one of yours before?

I put 425 on hold ages ago, so that roulette doesn't count anymore. Sacul said he wanted to run his January, so jingle.chad should end up being next.

TAC got a higher score than me in the electronic round? Honestly, can I just drop out now? :lol

So, just putting out feelers at the bar, if you will

I see a glaring hole in my schedule in January and wouldn't mind concocting a 20 people cannonball roulette

Would 20 people be interested?

Indi, we've now bonded over video game music, so it's a done deal. I don't know much about your tastes other than you hold Uematsu in the highest regard and Slayer in lowest. Also, you weren't instantly repulsed by King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard (which is always nice).

If you'll have me, I'll dash all expectations.

I skimmed a little bit of his two roulettes earlier this year and if I recall, they were much less about exposing him to new music and just having fun with the format and camaraderie, but I can go for either, or am curious if he has something even more exciting cooked up.

And if we're allowed to reserve for others, make sure you hold a spot for Wolfking, since he won't be up for a few hours.

Also, BOTH Indi roulette's were God Tier.

Thanks everybody for the enthusiasm. I'm thrilled to have the old gang, new blood, and for the first time wolfking. I anticipate the usual funny carnage.

Dear Bolsters, can we que this in a way to not let it start until January while not stepping on anybody's toes while starting on January?

Thank you and please know that I don't see myself above bribing a moderator.
