I started this, and never got started: https://lemmy.ca/c/musicleague
Part of the problem was that musicleague only works with a spotify login, but it could work with a fediverse login!
MusicLeague: https://musicleague.com/user-guide/
- Each league is made up of a certain number of rounds.
- Each round has a musical theme, like ‘covers’ or ‘I want your sax.’
- When the round opens, league players are notified to submit a song that fits the theme.
- When everyone has submitted (or the submission deadline arrives), everyone receives a link to the playlist to listen, consider, and then return to Music League to assign points and add comments to reminisce, toast and maybe a gentle roast.
- Once the votes are in, everyone will be able to see the results, including who submitted what, how everyone voted, and all the comments.
- Points are earned from round to round and accumulate through the entire league until a winner is crowned.
What we can do better:
This shouldn’t be an annual event, but rather a perpetual one
This belongs in !bestoflemmy@lemmy.world.
I remember in school when we covered these, we were trying to find examples of all the combinations but we couldn’t get some of them.
Saving this!
This looks good, thank you. I will give it a try!
Ideally it would give public links too, such as Youtube

Some other good songs from 2023

Faster than light + Tokyo Vice
So a spaceship full of journalists are trying to escape a fleet of Yakuza so that they can report on a breaking story. Gameplay includes making/breaking ties with factions of Yakuza and reporting on smaller stories along the way. Featuring Ansel Elgort and Ken Watanabe
I’d play it
I actually haven’t seen the one in the screenshots, is it this one?
I hear it as well, and it confused me at first
The line is quippy, but it’s silly when you look at the batman stories. Anything can be funny if you get reductionist with it
When the writers have her saving plants, they do it in a way that you root for her. Same with Mr. Freeze, those episodes and the movie is really touching, solely because of his motivation.
You don’t root for batman to beat them up or flex his wealth on them, you want Batman to help them. You want them both to get happy endings.
The stories usually end with batman stopping the carnage, while also arresting whatever CEO was cutting down trees or doing experiments on Nora. In other stories, he funds social programs and advocates for reforms as Bruce Wayne.
Maybe there are other stories where he acts like a frat boy. I skip content that has shitty writing
I’m open to trying out things outside my requirements, so I’ll look into some of these. Thank you!
I didn’t know the metal socket types ones existed
The one you have looks decent, I’ll keep that on my list of potential options.
I appreciate the recommendation! Weird I haven’t tried this before, I like it :)
Edit: I like ‘Ghost at Number One’
Agreed! Adding some Foo Fighters too
If you attended, how did you find the show? I couldn’t make it this time
