Katt's Roulette 3.0 v. post-roulette jingle concept playlist thing results!

[The Walrus]

Wait so can I still play? When's the hard deadline?!

Technical deadline is Wednesday by midnight my time. For reference, as of this post it's almost 5 PM on Monday. So you have a little over 2 days from now to get a song in if you still want to play...

Of course if I get it like Thursday morning that's still plenty of time for me to listen and judge accordingly so whatever. Just get it in within a couple days lol.

I have one more question...

I've been struggling with how many people to eliminate in the first round. I set it at 3 people for both round 1 and round 2, and yet I can only think of 2 songs I don't actually like in round 1, so that third person will just be unlucky.

Should the third person be allowed to stay (assuming they're not Nekov or Sacul who have immunity), or do they get the boot ("rules are rules")? Going to try to add a poll to this...

[Stadler]

Your roulette; short of gaming the outcome, do what you want.   (Though I don't think you should go the other way, meaning, don't say "no eliminations!" then turn around after everyone submitted and say "wow, there's some shit here, and someone's going home!".  I know if I don't have to fear elimination, I might send different things.)

[TAC]

I just find it weird that you would lobby for more players only to do eliminations. I'd rather have 8-10 people that were interested in my roulette in the first place than signing up on a whim only to be kicked out after a round or two.

^ This.  You make the rules; you can change the rules.  I'll again point to my experience last year; I thought 16 people was going to be too much, but in the end, it turned out to be something I could actually handle.  Despite saying that I was going to eliminate some people, I ended up keeping everyone ... well almost everyone - there was one Don'tCare-quit.  That user doesn't post around here anymore

Eliminate everyone in the roulette round 1, just to get it over with

Well I want as many people to participate in the beginning as there are people willing to play. The eliminations serve as motivation to send your best/something I'll latch onto, because more people = more competition. I didn't have eliminations in my other 2 roulettes and after a while I started to feel bad for the people coming in at the bottom because even though I was getting good music from them they were just lagging behind with no real shot at winning anyway. Also I don't want to listen to 16 concept albums. 

Okay... and this actually works out perfectly, once ariich sends his song. 2 eliminations every round, meaning there will be 2 players left for the final, concept album round. That works out extraordinarily well. Also the poll shows 1-5 in favor of 2 so hooray.

[ariich]

Don't worry Katt, I'll send something you hate so I can be the third round 1 elimination.

[The Walrus]

Don't worry Katt, I'll send something you hate so I can be the third round 1 elimination.

  I believe in you!

Results SATURDAY everyone, and then hopefully every weekend after that. Gonna fly through this.

[ariich]

Sent!

Elimination here I come!

Really interested to see your thoughts on this. Walker's stuff from that album onwards is really bloody miserable.

The Tori Amos song is Spark.

[ariich]

Oh and Narrow Gate - Wages of Sin.

[Crow]

Godmaker
Michael Camilo - Not Yet

Let's try.
Ruba - Tori Amos
Romdrums - Vola, Starburn
TAC - Narrow Gate
Elite - Ben Folds Five
King - Vanden Plas

That's a starting guess at least

It's your thing but kicking 3 people out after only the first round seems tough.  Personally would have the first round as non elimination then go from there.

Agree with what Tim said.

I appreciate your thoughts! I thought about no eliminations in the first round but I wanted to give Sacul and Nekov some reward (read: immunity) for being clear champions in the last roulette, particularly Sacul as he somehow won both of my roulettes.

Hangman is correct, if nobody guesses the senders by tomorrow I'll throw them up along with vague thoughts

[The Walrus]

Ruba - Tori Amos
TAC - Narrow Gate

these are correct!

[Crow]

Romdrums sent the other VOLA then

[The Walrus]

Romdrums sent the other VOLA then

He did not!

[ariich]

Did Elite send some VOLA?

[The Walrus]

Elite indeed sent one of the VOLA songs - I'll count that.

[Crow]

Romdrums sent Gunship maybe?
Wolf sent Vanden Plas

[TAC]

Are getting impressions? 

[The Walrus]

romdrums did not send that!

Are getting impressions? 

Yeah, I was going to wait a day or so but I can make some tonight. It'll just be a bit quiet til Results Day.

[Buddyhunter1]

I'll be a bit salty if Starburn ends up ranking (significantly) higher than mine.
