  • Pointing out the "unfunny" since 2014!
It was ten minutes from thirty years ago, so I can't tell you.   It was hot AF in there, and crowded, so the guess would be some mix of sweat and cologne.   My lasting impression was "hair".  Lots of hair.|

Good news: I have 11 of 19 writeups finished. Scores are not yet determined, but I have a rough idea of how everyone will do this round. Comparisons with your round 1 scores coming in sometime this evening.

Results - maybe - tomorrow. No promises, but it's looking likely.
From a Mega Man Legends island jamming power metal to a Walrus listening to black metal, I like your story arc.

Really looking forward to being the opening write up!

my round 3 is completely different from my round 2, which was also completely different from my round 1 (which round 3 is also completely different from)

there's minor overlap in a few places but i'm trying to keep it diverse

Ouch. You pain me.  Can’t wait to read this write up. 

My thoughts last week: wonder how risky this submission will be?

Katt’s roulette: Leeerooyy nnn-JENKINS!!

Fun fact: while TAC hated this round possibly more than anything he's heard in recent years, I think it's one of the strongest rounds I've ever received in a roulette. That said, there is one - ONE - submission that I just do not connect with, and a couple others that aren't quite sinking their teeth into me, but I don't dislike them. All the others are in a vicious battle for scores, and scoring is going to be a doozy this time.

Writeups are all done... I try to put some thought and detail into each writeup so they take me a great deal of time over the course of several days. I'll finalize the scores tonight and share them tomorrow. Guess I'm making the deadline after all, Rich!  :lol

I'm predicting Buddy is sending something from the Tales or Star Oceans games. Or even Ys. Maybe Persona?  :corn

Rich, we could hold each other's scores hostage and see who blinks first.  :lol

It's another RPG, but no, not even close. :lol I've never played any of those games actually (though I'm quite familiar with Persona 5 at this point).
