Themed Mixtape Game

Pompey you need to get your ass back in these games. Hope you've submitted something for this one.

I'm also quite shocked that we've made it through 33 rounds.
 
Yeah, I haven't played for a while. I didn't have anything good to submit for the past three rounds. But this time I did! I'm quite excited to get back into it. I'd like to win again too, because there's a theme I really want to do. Definitely not happening this round though...

i could start being harsher i suppose. i don't much like giving shitty scores to songs i rly like though. i've typically been knocking off a couple points.
 
Generally my policy has been to dock 1-3 points for obviousness and also to award a bonus point to songs I really like that I haven't heard of before.

Of course he says this right after I submit my first "obvious pick" since like round 2

I wasn't criticizing you specifically, I wasn't even aware of what you'd submitted. I'm not above submitting canonized stuff myself; I submitted Iron Maiden for the literature round and I won a round with At the Gates. But I do try to go for obscure stuff most of the time.

Nah I'm not taking it personal lol. Just ironic that I've been saying for a long time people should pick non-obvious things, lost every time. now people want non-obvious things when i switched back to obvious things to try and win one
 
I'd like to win again. I had to submit a The Chasm song when HamburgerBoy was hosting to get my sole victory. But a lot of The Chasm fans here didn't even vote in that round and I don't think you gave it a particularly high score Pompey, so I'm not sure how I still won.
 
It's maybe unfamiliarity with the lyrics/subject matter of more obscure songs as well as to why we get more obvious picks.

I've gone with a rather obvious band this time, however, the song isn't at all obvious for this theme I don't think and this band hasn't been in the game before.
 
Since this theme is much more open to interpretation, I'm currently edging as I wait to shoot my 0/10s all over inevitable bad interpretations this playlist.
 
nature and natural disasters are pretty fucking sameshit lol so yea cataclysm was duplicated can't remember every song ever played lol
 
Currently sitting at 12 submissions. I'd like to get the list up in the next 10 hours or so, so anyone who wants in and hasn't submitted please get your skates on.
