I don't know if I can get to the last round with still available music. I will probably have to recycle some albums from ariich roulettes and I hate to be predictable, but I'm in!
Good to have you
Really don't have time to keep up with roulettes as much now, even though jingle's and ariich's are coming to an end now. You'll get plenty of music here anyway so it should be fine and if you want to have the illusion of me being present in this roulette just listen to Odyssey To The West every round
It's a good album, but not as great as you think it is. A 7/10 at best...
Wait wait, I've got a question for Puppies. I just noticed this!
TAC - Prelim immunity for having the best album in the album round (besides Evermind who said he is sitting this one out) in my first roulette
Will Tim lose his immunity if I join? If so, I'm in.
In fairness I'd probably give both of you immunity. If you really want in, the more the merrier.
One observation/question, and one request.
Observation / Question - your banned list has a lot missing that were on your last roulette. Are those that were banned last time but not this time fair game?
Request - can you (if you have it readily / easily available) list the bands you received in your last roulette (unless you already put them all on the banned list of course). I just don't want to inadvertently send you something that someone else sent earlier this year.
To answer your question, I removed a bunch of artists from the banned list that I had only rated/heard 1 album and am not familiar with the rest of their albums. Those artists are fair game, but you will have to be a little diligent in checking my RYM page to see which those are. You will have to work for that bonus point.
As far as bands from my previous roulette's, I just noticed I forgot to add in the ones I want to ban. Basically any band that rated 8 or higher is off limits. I will type those up in the third post in a bit.
How many people get through the prelim round?
This is yet to be determined. I'm going to base it off of how good the albums are. So potentially everyone could make it through.
