Yeah but I made it totally clear how this was to go. I can't help what you personally took from it, but unlike other threads where the premise was somewhat unclear to some people, I think everyone here got it from the off.

With one exception.

Also, let's set the record straight about the PRAC: you wanted to just breeze in and out of that, reviewing when you felt like it and ignoring albums you weren't interested in, while the whole point of the PRAC (may its proggy soul rest in peace) was that EVERYONE listened to EVERY album and gave their opinion. You tried changing the rules for you, and everyone knows if I'm nothing else (and I'm not) I'm a stickler for rules. So you only had yourself to blame there.

Guess you had the last laugh though: wasn't that you I saw dancing (out with the moonlit knight) on the poor PRAC's grave? Or is it a case that You can't dance?


I meant a smiley, dammit, you king of the emoticons....
I figure as much that is how it went, but i doubted myself to thinking otherwise. Let's just say I was conditioned by your negative waves, esp. in the Proggy album thread.

I like how you said that "you wanted to just breeze in and out of that..." just call me "Breezy" I would have loved to participate more, if I wasn't so busy (sorta), and have access to those albums, etc.

Yeah, It sorta reminds me of this too:

... but in this instances the albums members mention are being voted on, maybe that is how that the 1001 thread should had be done in the first place, maybe, idk... I'm not stoked about a popularity contest.
