Ruba's Roulette II v. Final results!

[Crow]

there's one song i wanna send but i have a suspicion that if we're using really vanilla themes it might be better saved for a future round 
i narrowed down to a top 5, but they're all really dang good songs it's hard to pick

[TAC]

For my first two roulettes, I used this theme for the opening round. Gotta find a song now. Don't have much (actually nothing) for 90's rock. 

Tim, it doesn't have to be. I like many different kinds of music, sometimes from rather unexpected genres.

Well, I just sent an unexpected 90's genre.

Damned themes!

[TAC]

Don't know if you remember but I got Killer by Alice Cooper because you had recommended it. It's been some time I've listened to it though, but it's really solid record.

Huh? That must've been years ago. Seems you went on a hiatus?


I consider Killer essential.

Yeah, probably some time in 2012.

After a few quiet years, I started posting more regulary last year-ish.

I've narrowed mine down to 7. I'm curious if we have any overlap.

PM me your song list if you want to check 

[Ruba]

Right now I got five submissions, two guys going eenie-meenie-miney-mo and Sacul has posted here so he's on board. I haven't heard of Stadler or senecadawg, but there's still two days left.

Stadler usually doesn't post on the forum on the weekends.

I was wondering whether you had him filling out your tax returns or something.

No real rush though. And if any of you are unable to post for a while, message me and I can give upcoming themes in advance.

You gotta work on your looks sometimes. Or maybe he can file it under work-related costs.

[TAC]

Nope, it's purely cosmetic. He's tried filing those visits on his expense reports.

[senecadawg2]

Sent!

[King Puppies and the Acid Guppies]

Sent!

Likewise

[Crow]

i'm down to two songs and both are so dang good i'm going to regret not sending the other one, whichever one i do settle on
i might just spend the entire roulette sending you b-sides to all my submissions because i have so much music for you that i can do this and then still put together a several-hours-long playlist after the roulette's over, like, dammit, only 8 rounds? 

[King Puppies and the Acid Guppies]

Yeah, I was thinking his banned list looks a little on the thin side.

[Crow]

even if his banned list was double the size i'm sure i'd still have plenty of voids to fill

[Ruba]

Nine out of ten so far, very good.

I assume I could start hangman as soon as I have all submissions?

You can start it whenever you want, it's your roulette 

[Sacul]

Sent a great banger

[TAC]

When I read this this morning, my first thought was..Gee, I wonder if Sacul is playing..

Sent a great banger

...and the answer is YES.

[Ruba]

OK, time to start the hangman. I'm not still 100% sure how it should work, but I'll give it a shot. (and I can make some horrible puns  )

Nightingale - Nightfall Overture
Orphaned Land - The Cave
Threshold - Light and Space
Amorphis - The Bee
Hole - Violet
Thrice - Broken Lungs
The Human Abstract - A Violent Strike
fun. - Be Calm
The Panic Channel - Teahouse of the Spirits
Porcupine Tree - Blackest Eyes

After you've guessed a letter, wait for two turns before you guess another.
You can try to guess artists and song titles anytime. If you get it right, you can guess a letter instantly. If you get it wrong, wait for five turns before guessing a letter.

DIS OT

[Crow]

with those guessing rules i suspect this might get stuck in a standstill sooner rather than later, but we'll see 
give me the inaugural D, anyways

[Sacul]

I

[TAC]

That’s one guess per day!!


T

[Ruba]

That’s one guess per day!!

OK, I'm also a bit unsure about those rules myself. If you have ideas for improvement, be my guest.

E: Lowered the "cooldown period" to two turns. Don't really want this taking the better part of the week.

[The Walrus]

O

[Evermind]

It's fine man, I'm not gonna guess letters anyway, give me a few minutes.

The Human Abstract - A Violent Strike
Porcupine Tree - Blackest Eyes
Orphaned Land - The Cave
Threshold - Light and Space
Thrice - Broken Lungs

[Crow]

Goddammit Ev

Well, five outta five.

Ah, I see you weren't familiar with Ev's ruthless hangman guessing abilities

[Evermind]

Nightingale - Nightfall Overture

I'm also kinda tempted to call Amorphis - The Bee but the first word of the song has four letters and I don't know any Amorphis song that would fit that.

[Luoto]

You're most likely correct. If it's not The Bee, then it's The Way

[Evermind]

nvm, hopefully no one saw this. I'll edit the upper ones if Luoto will also edit his. Although I guess it's too late now.

Evermind waits until the next hangman.

Just noticed that, sorry man.

edit: okay well, Hole - Violet got through, that's that. I won't do this in the next rounds, but I love to do this shit in the first one especially when the host is someone I didn't see hosting roulettes in the last few years. Hopefully there's no hard feelings on your end.
