And, Occult, you're not even the second one to review this round. What happened?
We have a problem with Neapolitan, as I have him on ignore. It's going to be hard for him to take part unless someone can quote his posts, or maybe he might stop with the snide remarks and I can take him off ignore? Would that be a plan, do you think? I have to say though, originally Neapolitan was one of the ones who complained about having to listen to and review every album - he only wanted to do the ones he was interested in - and that breaks the rules for being a Full Member. So unless he's prepared to review that stance, then he would certainly not be eligible for round four, or any round.

Ball's in his court, I guess.

Take him off of ignore and all of your worries will be no more.

He's ****ing annoying to me. So unless he decides to stop with the snide comments on everything I do, he's staying there.

Also, as I mentioned already, Neo was one of the first to complain about having to listen to every album, from round one. If he wants to comment that's fine, doesn't bother me, but I am not disposed towards putting him on the Greenlist. If he makes an effort to participate more, then we'll see. For now though, going on his previous record, it's not an option.

He should make a Rogue Album Club thread.

As far as I remember I couldn't participate in the Album for the Month of 2017 because my computer crashed and I couldn't look up albums so I couldn't participate. I even stopped journalizing too, if you look back at my journals you would see I haven't posted anything there during those months as well.

Maybe we are confusing of deliberately refusing to listen to the albums to finding it difficult listening to albums never heard before. You should appreciate this because even in your thread Trollheart Listens to Every Album on Wiki's List for 2017 you said you will not listen to an album in its entirety if it doesn't suite your fancy straight out of the gate (paraphrasing of course.)

A. I joined up after getting a new computer, not in the beginning of the year when my computer had issues.
B. I tried to establish myself in the club before I ask to be vetted in the club after I had reviewed a few albums, out of respect.
C. I know I fell of the bike and missed an album (forget which one) but I got back up and started pedaling again with more albums reviews.
D. I have middle-child syndrome. I guess what I am saying is (and I am not trying to be snide here) you don't have to go out of your way to exclude me, I'm already there feeling excluded. While I honestly look forward to being vetted, whether or not I am vetted in the album of the month club, I will still feel like an outsider.
E. If I am vetted into the album of the month club this is my album to be criticized by the Album of the Month Club Members.
