RouletteMania! v. Do It, Gregg!

[TAC]

So here's what I said after Alex's first roulette.

Alex, you have set the bar on how roulettes should be run. You were entertaining, committed, and this thread never got boring. Every future roulette host take heed. I always say that when you run a roulette, it's YOUR party. YOU are the host and it's YOUR duty to maintain its pace. So outstanding job.

Again, this thread did not disappoint. Love the theme, and I try to run my roulettes the same way. You basically invite people in, and it becomes a music sharing party. I have stated in my roulettes that I don't do it to find new music. I can find new music. I do it to get to know people and to give us a place to gather daily to shoot the shit.


Everything I said then, still applies.

So well done again, brother.

Randy Savage: "I'll see you in the ring, ooo-yeaaaahhhh"
TAC: "I've never heard of you."

Congrats, Chef lonestar!! TAC, congrats to you as well for a great run and a near victory.

Thanks to all the rest of you for putting up with this roulette noob. I stand in awe of the familiarity you all have with great and obscure music. I will take time to learn and purchase quite a bit of these bands/albums...especially if it from King or Evermind's collection.

Thanks again Alex. I don't know what to say that hasn't already been said. It's one thing to have comedic and writing gifts, it's an entirely different thing to have them in two (maybe more) languages. Your command of English, modern western culture, and all things U.S. just astounds and impresses me. For bringing all of that to this roulette you created the gold standard that I don't see ever being beaten and elevates Indiscipline into the pantheon of DTF contributors reserved for the likes of LeeHarveyKennedy, IMO.

I'll actually miss this thread.

Time for me to run my own Roulette.

In!!

Golf theme.  I'm Craig Stadler.

Gregg will get it. 

[TAC]

I thought Stadler would be Stadler.

[The Walrus]

Someone start a new roulette. Podaar included

What kind of trash talk?

“Your mother is a day trader!”
“My mutual fund is bigger than yours!”
“I hope you make a sandwich and then you realize you have no more Grey Poupon!”

[Indiscipline]

I'm calling dibs on Al Czervik!

No doubt! I am playing checkers are you are all playing 3-Level chess.

I’m calling Jean Van de Velde.

Gregg, don’t let us down.

🤣🤣🤣

[Podaar]

Y’all are sweet. It’s not going to happen, and even if it did. It would need to take place in the winter months when I’m not so busy. Sorry, guys.

[jingle.boy]

In my profession, no means maybe.

Excellent, next winter it is!

That's what you said, right?

[Cool Chris]

In my profession, no means maybe.

I wish I could say the same about Mrs. Cool Chris.

[The Walrus]

Well I'm maybe definitely probably never running another roulette so someone needs to.

Did you avatar just WINK??

Like it wasn't creepy enough!

[ariich]

TFW everyone is sad about the absence of roulettes when they're all currently in your roulette.

Only because I gotta wait a week before sending moar

I clearly meant The F*ck What.

(or "that feeling when", in case anyone doesn't know...)

Hey I think it's pretty impressive that I'm keeping rounds to a week each with the amount of music I'm getting!

Also on a related note, I have two different ideas for more fun approaches to roulettes that I might use in future.  - more for entertainment than anything else - which would be more quickfire.

[The Walrus]

That wasn't a dig at you being slow, but rather some impetus for someone else to run a roulette! 

[Podaar]

Like it wasn't creepy enough!

You can't know how much it pleases me that my visage creeps you out!

[Crow]

yeah i think i've moved past the need for roulettes too but i might run short ones occasionally if i feel like it

[The Walrus]

Yeah, I discover so much new music now on a weekly basis that there's no need to run a roulette unless/until I tap out of that. My #1 goal in sending in roulettes now is just to give a taste of what I like and who I am, as well as introducing the host to stuff they probably wouldn't listen to otherwise, since I have zero grasp on what people here like in prog music 

All that to say, someone, please run a backyard wrestling roulette so I can piledrive Cyril's ass east of the wall

[Elite]

Should I think of a silly concept for one again? It's been almost two years since my last one.
