Ok Native Construct's debut is awesome and anyone who disagrees is objectively wrong

My next bonus round will be 'whoever can listen to Quiet World the most amount of times without passing out wins'

But for real I'll update the hangman right after I do this

Oh yeah, anciients
This is literally the same thing that happened in wolfking's roulette  :lol
That was my first thought too. Later found out that it was Big Hath who sent Raise The Sun but it's still bloody close. So this band should be good or something right?

Yup. Nowhere (Sweet Sixteen) from their latest record that has a title that can't be pronounced.
Hey dude slow the fuck down so we can finish together at the same time.  :biggrin:

Well, that only leaves two more to be guessed, one of which is just the band name consisting of 2 letters, other one should be fairly obvious now I think. Put them on the bottom for convenience.

Based on what he already likes... idk that's the risk of a roulette. Although I bet I get a low score because I actually read the banned list instead of like last round when I just took a shot in the dark :lol

Now I want to know what you based it on :lol was it Dream Theater?

All songs have been guessed good job guys. Finished my first listen and while I don't want to be too forward about this, I think it's safe to say this is my favorite round so far. Still, not everything is awesome but this'll most likely be the round with the highest average score so far.

Yeah I just updated my team yesterday. Haven't even touched it since the start of the tournament so I never switched in new players, I'm in last place :lol

Unfortunately won't be seeing Switzerland vs. Poland and will probably have to miss Wales vs. N. Ireland aswell because, ironically, we've planned a football tournament with some guys from work and they rented a hall for it. :lol I think everyone except for one or two of us is absolutely terrible, including me, but it should be fun.

But obviously I won't miss Croatia vs. Portugal, I'm fucking stoked for that game.

I'm third in my league even though I was switching players. Many of my players were rested in last match.

You can do it until the start of first match tomorrow.
Also, you roasted us on matchday 3 :tup

I had like 3 players from Austria in my starting 11, including their keeper whom I don't even know by name. And well, they were my biggest disappointment of the tournament by far as I thought they were going to be the major dark horse, making quarters and maybe even semifinals.

Done my transfers, let's see how it goes now.

I mostly got lots of points because I had Cahill, Vertonghen and Vermaelen in the defenders line and both Belgium and England conceded no goals. And Neuer as a captain of course, that's the second time in a row he scores 12 points for me.

Possibly going to miss all games today :-\ I really want to be able to make it to Croatia - Portugal though, but it's gonna be a busy day.

I'd like to use this post to warn some people that the first and only cut-off point of the roulette will be after round 7. Everyone has 3 bonuses available and some of you haven't used a single one yet. So if you don't want to miss out on them you'll have to start using them soon. I've actually purpously missed out on a bonus point once because I think sending a great song is more important than following a certain theme just for an extra point, so I do appreciate that, but if you want free points it is recommended.

I'll repeat the 6 available bonus themes here:

* Foreign lyrics: Songs with lyrics sung in anything but English and Dutch, I’ll allow Spanish. I’m technically Spanish but I don’t speak it as well or as frequently as the other two in my daily life, so it still has that foreign spark to me.
* Instrumental: This speaks for itself.
* World music: I think I have a soft spot for this kinda stuff, but it’s still a tough one, I also barely have any world music influenced stuff so yeah, help me find more.
* Songs with prominent brass/strings/woodwind inclusion: For this one I will allow synthesizers aswell as the actual instruments, I can often hear the difference pretty clearly, but it doesn’t take away from my enjoyment.
* Songs released in 2016: I’ve found lots of cool newly released stuff already, help me find more!
* Cover songs: There’s lots of great covers around, usually the ones I like best are the ones that really form their own identity. A great example is the Johny Cash cover of Hurt by NIN, and Metallica’s covers of Turn The Page and Astronomy by Bob Seger and Blue Öyster Cult respectively.
Note, the banned list applies to the band that’s covering the song, if it’s the other way around, I need to approve of it first, if I know the song or if I think it’s too similar to the original that I already know I will deny your song.

And this is where everyone's at:

- Parama: W/B/S, Foreign lyrics
- Bolsters: World music,
- Sacul: World music, 2016
- Elite: 2016,
- twosuitsluke: Instrumental, 2016
- Evermind: Foreign lyrics,
- Scorpion: Instrumental, Foreign lyrics
- Tomislav95: Foreign lyrics,
- 425:
- splent: W/B/S,
- Shadow Ninja 2.0:
- home: Instrumental, Cover

1 more bonus available: home, Scorpion, twosuitsluke, Sacul and Parama
2 more bonuses available: splent, Tomislav95, Evermind, Elite and Bolsters
All 3 bonuses available: 425 and Shadow Ninja

Correct me if I missed one.
