It'll be interesting to see what the best strategy is for this. Send the best songs and get the same score as like 8 other people? Send unconventional choices and hope to end up ahead of the pack instead of behind it? Try to guess which are the TACiest songs for very non-TAC artists, or just go for what you think is best?
And if spirit's a sign,
Then it's only a matter of time

Or send nothing, and win the whole roulette.

That's why I'm sending nothing!

From TAC's list Devin Townsend is the only artist I haven't heard a single track in any iteration of him. I've heard one album of Coheed and haven't tried again. The rest are pretty dope.

I'll pass. I can make do with Haken, Devin, PT (although Deadwing is my favourite at this point) and Opeth, but I don't like Mastodon, Coheed or BTBAM. Neal Morse is hit or miss with me so yeah, I'll skip this one.

Looking forward to see the write-ups though!

Throw two dice and pick track X from album X for any artist you don't know :neverusethis:

Good stuff. I'm in! :rollin

Ok Ruslan.

That’s it though.
would have thought the same thing but seeing the OP was TAC i immediately thought Maiden or DT related
Winger Theater Forums........or WTF.  ;D
TAC got a higher score than me in the electronic round? Honestly, can I just drop out now? :lol

We could also turn this around and try to win by losing. Pick the most un-TAC tracks for every artist and go for the lowest score. Not to mention his commentary.  :biggrin:

Yeah I only really like BTBAM and Strapping Young Lad out of these. I might like Mastodon and some Devin solo stuff but haven't really gotten around to them.
