Eliminator Walrus - Page 3 - Puzzles and Other Games Forum

same thoughts here but then again I was actually rather surprised to see I wasn't eliminated with my pick before I even knew about the preference for hiphop

may have to start digging into my college era playlists

7/20 submissions so far - I am sure it is unlikely but if we get all 20 in today, I should be able to reveal either tonight/tomorrow! If not, will shoot for Sunday or Monday reveal.

when I saw the category I knew you'd submit The Mountain Goats and I was pretty confident that the conversation of "Is this a solo artist?" would ensue.

If only I knew what song to submit for round 2...

I went down a long path of country westerns but figured it'd be too much hubris to push that on OP

No worries - still have until EOD to submit. Sorry won’t be able to reveal today, at the shore. Will listen to the songs on my drive home tomorrow and try to reveal tomorrow or Monday.

yeah would rather you take your time and listen to everything a couple times before eliminating to be fair

Uh oh with my song you've got to listen to it a few times and watch the actual youtube video to get into it

Yah I always listen to the songs at least a couple times - don’t really watch the videos since that isn’t what I’m judging.

Revealing in this format is still much easier though since I don’t have to order every submission.

First listen through...oh man, wayyy worse than the first category haha.

Also; there were a few songs that I though were borderline from a category fit perspective but I asked the submitters to explain the clever/uniqueness of the title before I listened and we are good to go. Will be doing less arbitrary categories going forward though.

Reveal will be sometime tomorrow.

I had to submit something that got questioned because all straight up clever/pun titles were comedy songs which I figured wouldn't do well.

Yeah it’s all good - it was my fault for choosing a vague category.

Every song that got submitted is fine and like I said I am judging off which song is the best/worst not on how creative the titles are.

Just wanted to preface to avoid any arguments after the reveal.
