The Torture Chamber

Are we to assume you're still staying here on the list, or do you want me to remove you? Nice one anyway.

We all need a boot up the arse, including me!

Everyone's slipping. I should have issued Yellow ALerts days ago, but since I failed to do so everyone is getting some extra time. However, the Yellow Alerts go out today, so from today you have four days to do the first of your recced albums. If you don't, then on Saturday a second Yellow will be issued to you, and on the next day if you have not completed or at least started your review you will forfeit your score.

Extensions are available if you have a good excuse, but in general I'd like to try to keep this moving along, and everyone is building up a backlog so we need to get on this. Obviously, nobody expects you to listen to three or four albums a week, so for each additional album recced to you you gain an extra week. For example: say Frownland has four albums not yet reviewed. His first is due Sunday October 25, then his next is due November 1, the next November 8 and so on. Of course, you don't have to wait, if you feel like getting a review binge done, but these are the maximum dates allowed.

The OP has now been updated with everyone's albums, dates recced and dates due. As Yellow Alerts are issued, the album in question will be coloured pale yellow for the first and dark yellow for the second, so that you can see at a glance when you are running out of time.

Yellow Alerts will be issued in the next post, and you will also receive a PM, so that you can't say you weren't warned. Anyone wishing to apply for an extension please let me know, but be aware you can only have two extensions per album, to a maximum of one week per extension. After that, you automatically forfeit your score to whoever recced you the album, and there will be no further warnings.

So let's get some reviews done, huh?

All the below need to be reviewed by Sunday, Oct 25.
Frownland: New Jersey (Bon Jovi)
Deadchannel: Rockin' with the rhythm (Judds)
Batlord: Lost Shadows: In Defence of the Soul (David Topp)
Oriphiel: The Road to Hell, Part 2 (Chris Rea)

A second Yellow Alert will be sent, should your album not be reviewed before then, on Saturday Oct 24. You will then have one day to review or forfeit.
