SAUS Discussion - "LET'S HUG IT OUT, BITCH!"

Encephalon · 04:18 AM

It occurred to me that perhaps this event could use a discussion thread in order to keep the clutter in the nomination thread down to a minimum. Of course, being as how I'm only a lowly peon, my mental cogs only processed this AFTER I cluttered up my nomination post with the ramblings below:

In response to a now-deleted post: these are the 512 tracks from last year.

Umm, just out of curiosity, what won last year? =X

I dunno. I lost interest after the arguement with the CHetards died down. It was probably some schlock 80's metal though, there seemed to be a lot nominated last year.

Israel Kamakawiwo'ole - Over The Rainbow

Rating for the final thread: 1.00/5.00 (3 votes)

Also worth noting: "Over the Rainbow" was not one of the original 256 nominations but was instead a "tiebreaker" song used to provide a third option whenever a poll was deadlocked due to the Concert Hall zombies' refusal to acknowledge anything created after 1730.

The winning nomination was offered by Skexis, who in retrospect may have been joking.

Over the Rainbow is not the worst song I've ever heard but apparently, people lost interest in this contest after a couple of weeks. There were like 30 people voting in the final bracket, which is really not that much. So it's good that Pangalin decided to have 256 instead of 512 tracks this time, I guess...

It's probably not as cool to you people, but I don't care what you think. Because you're all a bunch of assholes who nominate shitty metal. <3

For real, its going to be over 3/4 of the stuff.

Only so much we can consume at one time really.

Uhh no?? At least I don't hope so.

I mean, we are all more or less educated, civilised, cultured and accomplished human beings, so this year's metal music rate should be below 50%. Or maybe below 75%, but below 50% would really be a great development this year.

The only thing I nominated that could possibly be interpreted as metal was my notional comedy 80's track. The rest is a diverse mix of genres that several uneducated idiots will doubtless group together as "Techno".
