Mudcrotch?

Haha, yup. Mudcrutch actually. It's Tom Petty's old band, they got together and recorded an album this year. Mudcrotch, ironically, is a drinking game I used to play that has been banned in 36 states and most Spanish speaking countries.
 
I think there should have been a rule about lists that were under 15 albums, as it's essentially in your best interest to do a list of 10 instead of 15 so all your choices get more points.

I actually did read it as "Mudcrotch" the first few times I looked at it.....

:uhoh:



GAF, Mudcrutch was good? I never got around to it, much as I meant to. I actually rented it from the library :doh:.
 
I wasn't trying to single anyone out on this, I just realized after I finished my break down that it would have been better for me to do a list of 10 instead of the 15 as was requested by IMPeror.

Yeah, although the instructions were kind of confusing, so I chose 10 albums:

Last year, we had a thing where everyone was given 100 points to distribute among 15 albums, not to exceed 15 points per.

You can rate however many albums you want. Just use up your 100 points and don't give more than 15 to any one album.

oh I was just kidding. I had done 15 initially, when I noticed there were others doing 10, and I wasn't confident about that bottom five, so I dropped them :)
 
I'm a-gonna tally these bitches up later this evening mayhaps. Tomorry at the very latest.

Well I got halfway through tallying everything and then I had to reinstall Windows. So I lost it all.
 
The only person that I remember who hit my up via PM was YLB. The rest are in this thread. I'll compile it at some point, I'm just a little busy right now. Being sick doesn't help.
