If I were you, I would've never sent me Magic Power either. It's just sometimes these songs click with me. It was a huge risk, in fact, and it just paid off.

Anyway, I've got 8 songs in. I'm missing Nelson (because he asked for my e-mail and I provided it only now), Casper, Mason and Kade. It would be great if I get every song in the next 24 hours, but if not, no sweat, we all have real lives and all that. Just remember the faster you guys send it, the faster I'll be able to post the blurred pics, tidbits, results, all the good entertaining stuff.

yeah, that was just knowing the audience more than anything.

Knowing my audience would've probably helped me in this last round. :D
Quote from: wkiml on June 08, 2012, 09:06:35 AMwould have thought the same thing but seeing the OP was TAC i immediately thought Maiden or DT related
Quote from: DTwwbwMP on October 10, 2024, 11:26:46 AMDISAPPOINTED.. I hoped for something more along the lines of ADTOE.

Need to do some more digging.  i have a couple of options but there are songs I'm not all that happy with.  Will send tonight, so around 15-16 hours.

The search continues.

I'd offer some helpful suggestions but ... I don't want you to win.   :biggrin:

So I just checked, and, uh, you are one of the two who haven't sent.

 :lol

I have a couple of decent options, but 2 high scoring rounds has put the pressure on.  I hope Ruslan is a little open minded with this round.

You're due for a bad round..........might as well make it this one  ;D   I want you up there with me mate - just not that far up  ;)

I think I have had at least one bad round in every roulette I have been in- win or lose.  Keeping it to one is the secret.

Sent.  Went with something a bit left field and perhaps unexpected from me, but IMO the song and band are brilliant.

Will send in 4 to 5 hours, I fell asleep behind my laptop yesterday  :lol

Evermind

It's fine, I'm going out for a drink this evening and Mason hasn't sent yet anyway. Either he's busy as he's been warning me before the roulette began, or he's pissed at his 6/10 score and doesn't want to send next round. :biggrin:

If you indeed get your song in within the next six hours, I'll start listening this evening.

I'm in a musical this weekend, and I've been putting in 16 hour days between work and rehearsal.

It's all fine. Try to send something (it doesn't have to be a link if you're from your phone, just band's name and the song title will do) during the weekend if you can.

I've got 11 songs right now and I'm starting my first listen. The picture will be up when Mason gets his song in.

You'll love it or hate it, but you can't deny it doesn't fit the theme.

Evermind

Everyone is in now. I'll fire up the picture when I get home in a few hours.

I thought of giving away more, but you guys are supposed to be good at this, so you get this one. Let's see how many you will be able to recognize.

I'll be baffled if someone can guess any of these.

Mine's the first, meaning I totally won this round  :metal

Well I admit I may have made it too difficult. :lol I think a few of these are guessable though, and seeing how good you guys did at the previous rounds guessing, I thought you might as well get a challenging blurred picture.

I guess what makes this one so much harder to guess than round 3 is

one, when the artists are the more visible parts, it's easier to guess a song based on a few visible letters, seeing a word that looks like 'Paranoid' in the 11th song title won't get me anywhere.

two, because of the theme I can imagine there being more obscure bands, or atleast nothing too straightforward.

EDIT 2: Oh and taking a closer look at it, the 3rd song might be titled 'Lost Chance' though I have no idea what that is

Totally. In last round I could guess bands I heard of but never listened to.

Evermind

All valid points. Still, let's see if someone guesses something. I still think some of those are possible to guess, the fourth and the eigth ones in particular. Anyway, the second picture will be more revealing for sure.

By the way, I've got four instrumental songs this round. All in all, the entries for this round are so diverse and unusual. I'm really glad I decided to do this theme after all. Some very interesting band/song choices from you guys.

Well, I can see mine, simply because of my unique title.

The first song is something Path?  Firth?
Someone sent a live song - that's easy enough to tell. 
"Moment of " something.
Something with an Angle... or Angie.

Got one though... and I know who it is, because they sent it to me in my 2nd roulette

I didn't think you'd remember that, since it didn't go over too well with you.

Whoa, I didn't know "firth" was a word. I learn something new every day!

But actually yes, the first song is "Path".
