Don't have discord access until tomorrow so I can't send a yaml this time if that's okay to set the game up on your end. I'll do Timespinner with the following settings all turned to YES:

Quick seed
Inverted
Lore Checks
Boss Randomization

The rest can stay on their default setting.

I'd prefer the 22nd, since I'll be on vacation on the 15th

Alright thanks for the info, gonna boot it up tonight

Also, if anyone does not own Hollow Knight, I have a Steam key up for grabs. I figured I'd offer it to one of you guys first

want to join this but I'm having computer issues at the moment, hopefully will be fixed for the next one. Definitely want to do Zelda 1 and check if Blasphemous/The Messenger will work with the Amazon Games port

First time hearing Grimes. The rankings truly reflect the quality on this one, as in the bottom songs are bad, the middle songs are fine, and the top songs are great

I don't think the other singer is very good. With that said, the top songs on the list are really great, Iris in particular being an all-time karaoke favorite

I have definitely considered VGM and do plan on nominating a set. It's just been a matter of finding a group that fits well together and also isn't too long (like I wouldn't want to throw a NES soundtrack in the same group as a modern era one). Same for electronic minus worrying about the length.

Also I should do a top ten of all the volumes soon as well

Reggae is a genre that I can put on a playlist and chill but I'm not into it enough to seek out specific songs to listen to. If any of these songs came up randomly I would know it's Marley but would probably never remember what song it actually is. Cool album though, it serves its purpose of being something to chill out to.

Roughnecks

Goo Goo Dolls > Talking Heads > Godspell

Black

Even Flow
Alive
Garden
Porch
Deep
Release
Why Go
Oceans
Once
Master/Slave

I've been sitting on this with a blank top 2 for awhile since I couldn't decide which of Black or Jeremy I like more. They're two of the greatest grunge tracks ever. I never got into Pearl Jam as a whole, but this album is stacked with bangers with the aforementioned two tracks being on a whole other level.

Fate/Zero

did I forget to rank Quebec

Fate/Zero

Marley > Cliff > Toots

Man Made God
Colony
Zombie Inc.
Pallar Anders Visa
Coerced Coexistence
Insipid 2000
Ordinary Story
Behind Space '99
Resin
Embody The Invisible
The New Word
Scorn

In a genre that is extremely hit or miss with me, early In Flames is consistent with releasing solid albums, and Colony is no exception. There is one thing In Flames is really good at, and that is making fantastic instrumentals; Man Made God fits the bill here.

Pretty much spent back and forth the whole album questioning whether I like the vocals or not, and that includes flip-flopping my thoughts midsong, for pretty much every song. As Seanchan said, "middle of the road" seems like a perfect descriptor for this album.

i got sniped!

Madoka Magica if I still have my save

Fate/Zero

sent one for SM

Madoka

Tool - 10,000 Days
Sonata Arctica - Ecliptica
Alanis Morissette - Jagged Little Pill
Rage Against the Machine - Rage Against the Machine
Kylie Minogue - Fever
Michael Jackson - Thriller
Green Day - American Idiot
Slipknot - Vol. 3 The Subliminal Verses
Cyndi Lauper - She's So Unusual
Black Sabbath - Paranoid
The Birthday Massacre - Walking With Strangers
Elton John - Goodbye Yellow Brick Road
Nas - Illmatic
Backstreet Boys - Millennium
La Dispute - Rooms of the House
David Bowie - The Rise and Fall of Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars
Protest the Hero - Palimpsest
Bad Religion - No Control
The Ataris - So Long, Astoria
Lindsey Stirling - Warmer in the Winter
black midi - Hellfire
Sigrid - Sucker Punch
Ween - Quebec
Arctic Monkeys - Whatever People Say I Am That's What I'm Not
Duke Ellington - Far East Suite

So a lot of the albums on the lower half have really great songs that I'd listen to individually, but the album as a whole gets brought down by the weaker tracks. Thriller fits here too but the best songs from it are so good that they elevate the album to where it is on my list. Outside of that, I'd say everything from Tool to Birthday Massacre is consistently good start to finish.

I'll be submitting on time

I'm ok with either.

37. Beat a game you'd dropped or had a long hold on

Kentucky Route Zero. Played Act 1 a few years ago and never came back to it. The game leaving Game Pass soon got me back in it. Pretty weird story imo
