Oh, I see it now. This was really difficult to follow.
Not sure I understand, but I’ll take it.
Not to speak for Louis, but if you don’t mind me giving my thoughts -
Throughout this entire game you have been really great about communicating where you were at in terms of timeframes, if there might be delays, etc. It has seemed to me that it was important to you that you get the reveal done and fulfill your obligation to your fellow contestants. And seeing through that same lens, as well as considering some of your other posts (including in the mental health thread), I can see that the rules would be important for you to stick to. As one of the people penalized, I don’t for one moment thing you revealed things in the order you did as a means of causing any frustration/confusion. I believe 100% your intention was just to add some spice/drama to the reveal, or perhaps it felt more “correct” to reveal that way.
I would just suggest thinking of it as something similar to the endowment effect - it is just a different process to have your song revealed in say 8th with the penalty explained, than to have your song revealed in 1st, then be told its actually 8th. That’s the part I think would be better done differently in future. And if you are unsure how to deal with a quandary, feel free to just DM one of the people running that Walrus, or any other contestant for that matter, just to get another point of view.
All in all, it’s just a silly music game that we play on the internet. I’m glad you are playing in this one and hope you don’t feel any stress as a result.
As for your last question I’m afraid I don’t quite understand why you might be dying before doing a reveal? Is that something to do with the trip you are on, or something happening in Vegas? Regardless, hope everything is ok for you.
Waaiiit a minute! Has anyone seen NBZ and miliboo logged in at the same time?!?!

I am very likely to go to Las Vegas to play live poker in a few days. Maybe I shouldn’t, but that’s my job. I wanted to do something fun before I possibly get COVID and die.
The way my mind works, if there are reasons for penalizing a song, I have to come up with a quantifiable explanation. Maybe I don’t need to share my reasoning, but I will have a reasoning. It bothered me that I couldn’t come up with more detailed explanations of why I liked the songs I liked.
I wasn’t going to share this before I did my reveal because I was curious what people would submit, but I understand why I listen to music. I want music that is fun. I want music that make me happy. I don’t want music that fuels my rage. I don’t want the sort of music that people listen to while fondling a gun and contemplating suicide. That doesn’t mean I don’t sometimes listen to music like that, but I can’t handle too much of it.

So did I get first place or what?

No. Yours was legitimately the song I least enjoyed listening to.

I understand now re Vegas. Tbh I think it might be better to ask your question about going in either the mental health thread or the covid thread since people can probably speak more to the topic there.
Anyway let’s move on 
More categories and more pain awaits us all!
The guitar tracks are pretttty pretttty good. Nothing that I would have submitted, which is actually pretttty cool.

Are you able to tell us with certainty that all submissions correctly meet the requirement of having a guitar used in them?

They all have a guitar. Not all guitar bits are created equal, as we shall see…

I’m legitimately excited for your reveal, no matter where I finish. Personally, I think it’s tough not to enjoy my submission, but YMMV!

This game can hurt you. It cuts you deep and leaves a scar! Yeah, things fall apart. Gotta have thick blubbar.

I just wanted to explain my mindset. I’ve talked about my choices in other places.

I like my songs for Swanky and cassette and think they will do well but of course you never know. Other two categories are total wild cards.
Nice work. that’s a great choice - I’m a bit jelly I didn’t think of that album

NBZ - WiFi trouble means delay.
Me - Ahh well, it’s late here, bedtime.
NBZ (seconds later) - Crushes my dreams.
Well, it was better to sleep through it I guess.
