1 week. You miss it you miss it. No member albums.

I'm with one week as well.

I take it we are starting the The Black Ryder's debut?

Occulthawk, I'm not going to be holding anyone's hand, ffs! We're all adults. Your name will appear in the OP along with your album when it's your turn, and if you're following and participating in the thread you'll know. What do you want, a PM? Come on man: it's not rocket science. Your turn will come as per the signup sheet, in other words, you'll always (unless something unexpected happens) be after my turn, but the signup sheet will be highlighted in green to show whose turn it is.
Can you go over that one more time, please.

Right: let's make this simple. The proposal is to have ONE week to listen to the album. That's the proposal. I'm the creator the thread and this is what I think. This is, however, not a dictatorship, but someone has to make the rules up, and that's me. So I propose one week.

IF YOU DISAGREE THEN POST AND SAY SO. As I said, before, silence will be taken as assent to the original proposal. I can't read minds, so if you don't say you don't agree then I have to assume you agree.

Currently, we have a 4-3 in favour of two weeks, but this only covers 7 of the 13 people we have here, so what do the other six of you think? If I take your silence as assent then we have 4-9 in favour of one week. If you don't want me to do that, then you have to speak up and vote. Not voting means you have no problem with the proposal, ie one week.

The deadline for voting is midnight Irish time Sunday coming. At that point the decision will be made and there will be no changing it.

****ing hell! I bet Trump hasn't got this much trouble getting his poxy decisions through!

So, 4-3 at the moment in favour of two weeks. What say you who have not yet spoken?

Should have just said one week and left it at that. :rolleyes:

Alright, JGuy.

Reminder: Don't get agitated. Maybe I can get Mr. Gulag...

Should we wait til after Sunday to start? I might give that Black Ryder album a spin today.

Are we...are we doing it now?

Sssh! You'll blow the whole deal! :pssst:

You'll get just as many people making excuses for missing a deadline with 2 weeks as you will with 1. The longer deadline just drags the next album pick out longer than necessary.

And I would also suggest adding a rule that any member who doesn't meet a deadline and participate in a round, has to forfeit their next album pick by having their name moved to the bottom of the list.

I'm going to say no to that. Look at the mini-****storm that kicked up over a simple thing like how long we were going to take to listen to the album. Can you imagine if I tried to implement this? :yikes:

You can start whenever you like. And post from today if you want. Officially I guess the period (be it one or two weeks) should really start from Monday, for the sake of convenience, but you can post now if you wish to.

If you want. I'd like to get things off the ground asap rather than be bogged down in this Fortnightgate for too long.

Currently standing at 9-4 for one week, by the way.

I'm going to take the matrix I made for the PRAC and add it to the OP. It won't be mandatory, or anything, but it'll be there for those who wish to use it.

One week sounds fine to me.

Check the OP. Also, you're not on the signup sheet: you want in?
