It sucks that this is tied to scoring. I got work during most days, and vacation coming up. I don’t have time for this hangman stuff. I just want to beat all your asses by sending awesome stuff.
And I was going to send Advent Horizon next round, you goof.
The Hangman points are assigned not by players actually guessing, but awarded to the player who's submissions are "hardest" to guess, and "hardest" to match to the player. Unpredictability is solving the song/band; Anonymity is solving the participant who submitted the song.
In this case, the player who submitted Days Before Tomorrow / Wasted Years Part II: Sleepwalking will only get 0.5 point for
Unpredictability because their song was guessed first. Conversely, Stadler gets 1.5 Unpredictability points for his song being guessed third, and 0.5
Anonymity point for being first matched to his submission. Hopefully this will all be much clearer at the end of the hangman. I'll put the order of things being solved in parenthesis to keep track of things.
To clarify, only Mason, Josh, and Tim are blocked from guessing letters (and Rich, I suppose). EVERYONE can guess a letter per day. I just didn't want any one or two people to rhyme off like 8 letters and solve the hangman while they were the only two people that happened to be online when the hangman was posted - which, I'm going to try and do at different times of the day throughout the next 7 rounds. For fairness.
Have at it the rest of ya!
Fuck that...I'm not giving Ruslan any more letters to figure shit out....
You should've tried before he woke up. The monster is lurking now!
