Themed Mixtape Game

[Phylactery]

It's a stretch to say it's thematic. As HBB said, it'd be better suited to an anxiety or nervousness theme.

 

[Phylactery]

Listen again to the full album, and again and the scores will go up, this stuff is up there with Rust In Peace and Ride the Lightning as some of the best thrash available. That's part of the point, that it's progressive without being unlistenable garbage. The instrumentation is extraordinarily tight rhythmically and actually changes keys, smoothly, unlike every Metallica album in Em. Very effective guitar solos, more variety in vocals. But I don't think you're a fan of RiP or RtL either if I remember right. The others who are have no excuse.

I'm actually a big fan of RtL and I like RiP plenty, although I find it to be inconsistent. I didn't hear that many similarities to those on the Antidote song, though.

Nice, I'll tally it all up in the morning.

 

[Vegard Pompey]

I could not resist the opportunity to subject people to Voivod's latest, so I regret that I could not have submitted this:



Fantastic song and would've stood out in the playlist, I think.

inb4 the next theme is "Solitude".

[HamburgerBoy]

What the fuck kind of math did you do for two songs to average higher than a 10 out of 10

 

[CiG]

Wait did I fuck up? I've been drinking all day.

 

[CiG]

I just added up each track's ratings and then posted the total.
So 11.25 up there was actually 112.5 total.

 

[EspaDa]

A great playlist it was. 2 below par tracks, other than that I'm very content.

 

[Phylactery]

I just added up each track's ratings and then posted the total.
So 11.25 up there was actually 112.5 total.

12 people rated so you should have divided each total score by 12. That gives the average rating. I'm not sure why you divided by 10.

 

[CiG]

I didn't do any dividing at all.

But if anybody wants to do the tallying differently feel free as I don';t plan to sober up anytime soon.

 

[EspaDa]

Drinking alone is dangerous mate!

 

[Phylactery]

Then how did 112.5 go to 11.25? That a division by 10. I assume you've done this for all of them. So for the Messiah Force song, it was actually 99.5 total but you've put it as 9.95?

It doesn't make any difference to the results if you've done the same thing with all of them. It just not the average score.

[CiG]

Okay I fixed it.

 

[Sirjack]
