[Plugger35]

5 contest wins for Marklar, he's become the David Boon of the song contest, a Taswegian punching above his weight.

I award him the coveted Talking Boony for best Taswegian in the song contest.

Bad luck Jazny

Looking forward to this round more than the last. I know it was deep cuts but the same bands popped up.

 

[ChappyUK]

Wonder if roo2macca has stats on who has nommed the most variety and who has stuck to their faves.

 

[Marklar_33]

Positives!

• Chaisa gets back to back podiums which means he's one away from the Hall of Fame. He botes well so there's a chance here!
• Hard Ball Get gets the coveted moral victory and his 31st podium in the contest. HBG = Huge Bote Getter

Now on to the Hall of Fame!

Marklar_33 wins on countback! Yeah sure, you're thinking "**** I have to host now" but it's not all bad. That was your 5th win meaning that you get inducted into the Hall of Fame! You're the 8th user to win 5 contests.

Am I up to 50 consecutive yet?

 

[Plugger35]

Wonder if roo2macca has stats on who has nommed the most variety and who has stuck to their faves.

I've tried to mix it up with different bands, I've nommed some of my favourite bands more than once like The Church, The Panics, Tool, The National, Stone Temple Pilots and Modest Mouse but no more than 2 or 3 times at the most.

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

Yep, updated.

I'm yet to nom my two favourite bands (mentioned them a million times here) but Rage(3) and Foo Fighters (2) have both made multiple appearances for me. Apart from that, a bit of diversity with Billy Joel, Ben Folds Five (another favourite), Roxette and Hunters and Collectors.

 

[MrsEddieBetts]

Daaaamn the band I was gonna nom has been nommed once before

 

[CakeEater]

Damn- I cant nominate Meatloaf again.

I don't but the fly's spreadsheet does. Most vary it around a bit but edgie has nommed AC/DC 20 times (less than expected) and LG has nommed them 9 times. Illinois Nazi has a knack of nomming Midnight Oil, Warumpi Band, Pink Floyd and R.E.M. Loonerty has nommed Arctic Monkeys 10 times, Marklar Faith No More 6 times and Arcade Fire 5 times for me. Otherwise, I like to mix it up.

I knew you nommed Arcade Fire this week. They disappoint me - Tenacious D promised they were the best ****ing band in the world. Hence the billy. Sorry.

I also think its the second time I've billied Arcade Fire

 

[MrsEddieBetts]

Marklar_33 am I in or not?! #worsthostever

 

[Marklar_33]

Yep, updated.

Thanks. And that's a Shane Watson too

 

[Marklar_33]

Marklar_33 am I in or not?! #worsthostever

I'll consider it

 

[CakeEater]

I got tripped up by a typo in the spreadsheet.

Would have had a sure fire moral winner on my hands.

 

[Smeg Head]

How many are we up to Marklar_33 ?

 

[Bomberboyokay]

I spoke to someone at a party last month who hadn't heard of Beck. This surprised me. But I guess if you're not really into music, and maybe more importantly if you haven't seen the Futurama episode he's in, it's not that strange.

 

[Bet on Blue]

I dunno (or don't remember) the episode.

 

[Bet on Blue]

Checked out a clip. Lol @ Bender & Beck performing Sexx Laws.
