Yeah seriously, your bad luck in my roulettes is unfathomable. But your strategy was amazing, I'd definitely urge to you use it again in future.I sure will, probably not in your roulette though. On one hand, this was well-run and a lot of fun, but on the other hand, I'm not sure I can stand another defeat like this.

Quote from: Evermind on July 02, 2020, 09:18:55 AMHoly shit, it was your first win? I feel a little better then (although you still would've had it had you shared )Yeah, I know. But where's the excitement in that? If Indiscipline's roulette taught me anything, you gotta play things up for the crowd.

Ariich is a freak, or somehow has more hours in the day than everyone else.
I be am boner inducing.
Indiscipline is a dirty boy.
Quote from: Evermind on July 02, 2020, 09:33:13 AMMy most ridiculous victory when I sent Blind Guardian - Wheel of Time in Sacul's roulette and got like 19/10 because of the ridiculous scoring system. What the fuck I mean that was probably the best song you sent me in my third roulette if I'm remembering correctly, but what?

“Zantera / Sacul music”
I want your D if it's still up for grabs
I outpopped Sacul

What the fuck I mean that was probably the best song you sent me in my third roulette if I'm remembering correctly, but what?I had a rule that would give you like 5 extra points if you sent me a song from a genre I didn't like and scored at least 8/10. Which meant most people that tried to go that route ended up with very low scores except for one or two tracks that managed to get that bonus, Wheel of Time being one of those. Yeah it was a pretty broken system
Most epic song (Theme winner - 4 points)Blind Guardian - Wheel of Time (Evermind)Evermind, album from the to-listen list (2 points)Evermind, song from a genre I dislike, but your tune was great (5 points)
This first band is Soen very cool swingy jazz fusion kinda stuff.
That's a word salad - and take it from me, I know word salad
I fear for the day when something happens on the right that is SO nuts that even Stadler says "That's crazy".
Remember the mark of a great vocalist is if TAC hates them with a special passion
I've only just twigged that my last two roulettes have been won by first-time winners (Luoto and now Buddy).

That's amazing. I'm not usually too keen on power metal either so if I had that I'm sure Evermind would have gotten it a couple times as well.
Quote from: ariich on July 02, 2020, 10:07:47 AMI've only just twigged that my last two roulettes have been won by first-time winners (Luoto and now Buddy).I think that's been the case with all of mine as well. Cyril almost won twice but got cucked by Katt at the very end. EDIT: er wait, misinterpreted that one. Thought you meant won by people playing in your roulettes for the first time. But senecadawg and Katt did both win their first victories in mine!
You were one of the people I specifically had in mind when designing a no-eliminations roulette this time, after your bad luck in the prelims of my last two. And it’s paid off for me hugely, as you’ve sent me consistently great stuff – in fact you’re one of only a handful people to have never dipped below an 8.0, which demonstrates that the final rankings aren’t the be all and end all. It was very much a roulette of two halves for you in terms of style – the first half was dominated by djenty prog metal, one of which was amazing (Valis Ablaze) and the rest of which was still really solid and kept you upper table. In the second half, you branched out into other styles and never reached the same high point, but you maintained a higher overall level of quality with some really exciting music. Unfortunately, your competitors upped their game in the last two rounds, which saw your standing drop. Still, it’s been a real pleasure having you on board.You win the award for: Most Djentlemanly

OMG TEH NUGGETZ!!Thanks for having me and I'm glad I got to be in more than one round! This was a lot of fun, and I'm glad you dug my submissions. Looking forward to the next one!
I peed next to Ian Mosley and Mark Kelly
Derek Sherinian probably stands 10 feet away from the urinal, shoots from downtown, and announces loudly that he's making history.
Thes sng is are sounds rally nece an I lyke tha sungar
would have thought the same thing but seeing the OP was TAC i immediately thought Maiden or DT related
Winger Theater Forums........or WTF.
TAC got a higher score than me in the electronic round? Honestly, can I just drop out now?
50 participants
Hey dude slow the fuck down so we can finish together at the same time.
SquscRa are the resultaten of sound nog bring propey
Snap! I never knew Buddy was a Bostonian. For some reason I always thought European.
I went and added + ranked the EP scores, for anyone who was curious. If anyone notices any errors in my arithmetic, I will ignore you and talk shit about you behind your back.
FUCKedit: OK, I added you and Train who I skipped for some reason.
Also, shoutout to whoever sent Psychonaut (Puppies, I think?), because I checked them out (based solely on the strength of the title 'All I Saw as a Huge Monkey') and ended up really loving the whole album.
people on this board are actual music fans who developed taste in music and not casual listeners who are following current fashion trends and listening to only current commercial hits.
*glances at your RYM*jeez Ariich, on a Thy Catafalque binge much? Looks like you enjoy them even more than I do
I'm happy to report back here as I work through each artist, if people are interested!
