jingle.boy's 4th roulette: That's all she wrote folks - another happy ending

[jingle.boy]

Katt, TAC, lonestar, wolfking... one of you may be getting handicapped.

There's an inappropriate, highly politically incorrect joke in there somewhere.  And not very well hidden, either.

Don't leave in suspense boy.

[Elite]

Hang on there tiger.  As the last-ranked person, Elite gets to assign a handicap to anyone in the Top 3 (inclusive of adjusted rankings).  The 'handicap' is in the form of assigning a theme to the submission.

Possible Handicaps:
Instrumental or ballad
Epic (15+ minutes) or shorty (under 3:30)
Elite picks a letter or color - the song, band or album must start with that letter, or have a color in it the title/name
Opening or closing track
Seven Deadly Sins - something to do with any of Lust, Gluttony, Envy, Pride, Sloth, Wrath, or Greed
Aggressive or Mellow
Song from the childhood years of the handicapped player

Katt, TAC, lonestar, wolfking... one of you may be getting handicapped.

Can't I just have wolf send female vocals or something silly like that?


Some of these are brutal though, like the letter option.. "Here, send something with a Q or an X" I looked at my music library and the colour thing is a terrible handicap as well. You can work around most of the others.

I'm not going to be an asshole right away, but TAC has to send an opening track next.

[Crow]

The color one is easy just send baroness

[Elite]

And have it start with a Q

[Nekov]

Should have made TAC or RJ send something from their childhood. Good luck finding recordings of baroque music from those times....

[The Walrus]

You son of a bitch.

[Stadler]

And you guys think I go see Blackmore's night because of Ritchie.  Or Candace.  (Total non sequitor, but that woman is even more beautiful in person, if that's possible.   I shoot hands with her after the show, and her hands are as soft as velvet.)

[TAC]

   I shoot hands with her

I heard that grows hair on your palms.

Took this shot at my first concert!

[Elite]

Why do some of those people have really tiny heads?

[TAC]

Got this PM this morning from our host:

Congratulations!  You've randomly earned the "I'm rubber, you're glue" option... if Elite assigns you the handicap this round, you can turn it around on him.

So....

I'm not going to be an asshole right away, but TAC has to send an opening track next.

Back atcha!



I have about a half dozen songs on my list to send, but unfortunately none of them are album openers. Plus, I sent my song for this round yesterday. No need to find another track if I don't have to..

Holy shit, Blackmore played that exact instrument (I'm not really kidding...)

I sent that right before I revealed the handicap rules.  25% chance, and you nailed the guy that randomly (I used a random number generator) got the 'back atchya' idol.

Jesus, now I really do feel like an ahole.   

[TAC]

Why? For your quoting skills?

By no means is it my intention for these handicaps to be SUPER limiting... I mean Q or X or Z would be brutal.  I'd probably limit it to the Wheel of Fortune Letters - RSTLNE.  Not the Homer Simpson scrabble letters - KWYJIBO

[King Postwhore]

Since I wasn't top 3, SENT!!

[jingle.boy]

Why? For your quoting skills?

I have no idea what you're talking about. 

Protip... if you want to burn someone on their quote mishap, you better quote it for evidence.

[The Walrus]

Chad... what did you think of that Power Quest song I sent in Puppies' roulette? (Children of the Dream)

I should have done something stupid like Q or a colour (and have a back-up just in case this would happen). Luckily, I did check whether or not I could do this and sending an opening track is no problem for me either

[Indiscipline]

Sent!

Send Dream the Dead by Caligula's Horse

[jingle.boy]

Chad... what did you think of that Power Quest song I sent in Puppies' roulette? (Children of the Dream)

Uuummmmm... it was PowerQuest.  So



Honestly, I don't remember a damned thing about it.  I suspect that ought to be enough of an answer for you.

[The Walrus]

  Gotcha. Was seeing if you were big on that 80s keyboard stuff or not, since you seem to like your cheese keys.

[lonestar]

Sent for this round...I got a few songs lined up that'll test the limits of Chad's tolerance of growls.... 




(mainly cause after looking through my whole library of over 400 artists, the only ones that aren't on his ban list either have growls or suck, that's the problem with sending every OMG YOU GOTTA LISTEN TO THIS artist I come across to him, and vice versa)

Ayup... that's why you got The Tragically Hip, Johnny Van Zant, and Italian Power Metal in yours.   

[Lethean]

Um, hey, what did you think about all of the songs that have been sent to me in my roulette so far? 

[wolfking]

Happy with that score.  I have some work ahead of me tonight.

Honestly, haven't been listening to those ones.  1/2 of the players in yours don't align to my tastes; the other 1/2 - if I don't know the songs, I wasn't listening so that they might have some ammunition for mine.

[wolfking]

Got a couple of bands in mind.  One band I think I will send this round Chad you have listened to an album from a few years ago once it seems according to your last.fm but the band has one particular album that is head and shoulders above the rest of what they have done so might gamble on them.  I don't think they are a band you would normally like but as I said they struck a winner with this one.

Too early to send a 10 minute odd song?

Nope... there were a couple of 8 and 9-minute tracks in Round 1.  Give it to me nao!

Okay.  Will sleep on it and send in the morning.  Will get up earlier and send before work just for you Chad!

[The Walrus]

I'll send mine today. I was agonizing all day yesterday over what to send.

[jingle.boy]

Sometimes being the leader sucks, eh?

Dude, I expected that TR track to get maybe 4th place at absolute best, so I'm pretty stoked, I think it's all downhill from here 

EDIT: Sent, and I'm crossing my fingers so hard that it goes over well.
