A couple of halls from that round...

  • A drought breaking win for NaturalDisaster who won his first contest since round 346. That was his 7th win along with his 15th podium.
  • Hoos participated in his 50th contest.
  • MWPP "won" her 14th billy earning the double in the process.
  • On a positive note, William Wonka, once again, earns a podium threepeat taking his tally 36.

Thinking I might skip the next two rounds. I've had a lot of stress and anxiety at work this week and I need to look after myself. On Saturday I fly to Melbourne, seeing the Cursed Child play with MWPP on Sunday, and then have a work conference next week.

Have fun guys :)

I saw a question : Does Power Change People Or Reveal Them?

#Theme Power: songs that sing about or use these words: Power , corruption, domination , Port (for the Billy record) , Machiavellian, change, reveal etc

No previous podiums
no songs released after Round 299

Noms due 11.PM ACDT : released Midnight ACDT

I will be at the football so checking shall be done in a rush .
For those struggling it can be songs that use these words

TedDougChris welcome! It's an amazing time here really. You get to listen to some of the least imaginative pieces of music one could conjure and then are forced to honour five of them with votes, a universally celebrated currency.

Do you want a stock, standard response or one that requires thought ? ‘Cause I’m on holidays, so the latter could be a while.... :p
