ariich’s inclusive roulette (v6) – EPic final results!

[wolfking]

Up to 19/21 submitted now.

I think I'm going to cap this at 24, if indeed I get more sign ups. As a multiple of 8 that would allow for a fun knockout cup competition alongside the main league starting from round 3 or 4 (top 8 ranked would get a bye to the second stage).

That's a shitton of music.

[King Postwhore]

3 to 5 songs. Let's say 4.  4 x 21.  84 songs. Crazy!

[The Walrus]

My next roulette will require everybody to submit 35 songs each and they all have to start with different letters of the alphabet

[King Puppies and the Acid Guppies]

Which alphabet are you using?

It's around 6 hours of music, which is less than I was receiving per round in my last two roulettes (which were album roulettes with 10-11 players). This is me taking it easier this time.

EDIT: Although that said, an album generally has a certain coherence, so I suppose I only needed to take in and get my head around 10 albums last time, whereas this time I need to get to grips with >20 different artists, even if it's less music overall. So a different challenge, but one I think I can meet!

[jingle.boy]

You're all playing for 2nd place, bitches.

[TAC]

You're all playing for 2nd to last place, bitches.

[jingle.boy]

You're all playing for 2nd to last place, bitches.

If that's what you want to be playing for, knock yourself out.

[The Walrus]

Ladies, please. We know you're both losing to me.

[Crow]

i'm playing for 3rd, personally

[ariich]

Let's see what happens the rest of today and most of tomorrow, but I'd be happy to cap it at 22 players tomorrow evening and get cracking with epic hangman and first impressions.

Yeah, let's go. I don't think there's anyone left on DTF that's not in this.

And yet this isn't the biggest roulette ever in terms of participants (though it is the biggest for quite a few years). Chad did one with 23 players once.

EDIT: From a quick search through old roulettes, I think I'm in 4th place and Chad/jingle is in 3rd with 23. Nem/obscure is in 2nd with 25 players, but Mason/DTVT wins with an epic 28.

[TAC]

Chad needs to feel important though.

[ariich]

Chad's was only the third biggest - see edit in my previous post.

[Buddyhunter1]

I thought TAC's earlier this year was the biggest I'd participate in.

[ariich]

I thought TAC's earlier this year was the biggest I'd participate in.

Tim's being all EPs also made it bigger than the number of participants, as we were all sending multiple artists and up to 40 minutes of music each round, so yeah that was pretty epic.




Also, scrolling through some of those old roulettes and came across this gem:

Since Rich sent I'm assuming you have all the songs now, right? I'm joking Rich

I KILL YOU!

Not sure things have really changed that much after all in the last 8 years!

[Nekov]

 

Well, we still have a Rich that delays roulettes, just not the same one 

[Elite]

Hey hold on, I sent a few days ago!

[ariich]

We're just waiting on Stadler, and then I'll close sign ups and get cracking!

[Stadler]

Try to get it to you by lunch; I can't access RYM from work anymore due to our fire wall, so I have to go to a different PC.  I'll try to do that here shortly.  I have the song list, I just need to confirm the band.

Excellent. If you know what you want to send but want to check the band isn't banned, feel free to just PM the song list to me and I can confirm.

[Crow]

Is Dream Theatre banned?
