outloud.fm/ILXORS — it's like Listening Room but not buggy and like turntable.fm but not designed for tweens. (RIP 2012)

The reason I put the max amount was because few others seemed to be uploading, but maybe they didn't want to upload because of so many tunes in the queue? Oh no, it's a vicious circle!

a bit of restraint and turn-taking and not queueing anything when there's more than half a dozen already up ought to fix that. again not pointing a finger cos i've shoved plenty of tracks up.

Yeah I think we can place our faith in self-regulation.

I'm also liable to queue up drones, horrible noises and/or insect music, stuff I figure might not go over too well.

people cd maybe delete anything they've queued if they're gonna leave the room. wouldn't want to have rules about what kind of things people shd play but obv i wouldn't queue up 5 looooong Merzbow tracks and then fuck off cos that wd be a bit doltish imo

Okay, we decided that tonight's theme is SPACE! Log in to Outloud and get your cosmic kicks!

I'm down

I'll be there in, um, 5 hours or so.

Also, we thought that if there's 5 or more people uploading stuff, it would be a good rule for each person to have a maximum of 2 tunes in the queue.

I think if people hang fire queueing as well you've got more chance of thematically linking into the track before.

yes

The space theme is rolling nicely, but it'd be cool to have more people uploading stuff.

lol the moment I show up today, there are but four tracks in the queue. By the time I upload my second one, there will be an hour wait to until it plays. I know it wasn't the case, but it felt like "JF is here...let's load up the queue really fast!"

this seems pretty civilized to me

I've stunned the room into silence

headbump

boomp

ooh would like to do this today, but i'm in the office. curses!

is that slipknot guy still there?

no he's gone

Actually he uploaded Rammstein and Slipknot, then quit the room before they played. No way to remove tracks = :-(

blechh

It got really eclectic and good for ~30-40min after that guy left. Then another person uploaded 6 tracks out of 7, and also left.

wow i bet whoever did that was really funny and cool

yeah that is lame. do they have a suggest ban system in place yet?

Turns out he was in the room after all and got his feelings hurt when I complained.

11:32MS_EsR:i am not that dude. why do you assume 'I' am a 'he' too? just because you dont like the music you should not criticize me. you are all very unfriendly and cliqueish. im so sorry i dont fit in. i'll just not bother coming here again

"I came into this room uninvited, uploaded half a dozen tracks without any regard whatsoever for other users, then when I was called on it I got all butthurt."

as long as you can shame shit uploaders into not returning, the system works

im so sorry i dont fit in.

Years of posting to ILX has hardened us to lame passive-aggressive attempts at guilt tripping.

i'll just not bother coming here again

pfft, wvs...

That person has been in there before and played some great stuff. But yeah, overloading the queue is not a good thing to do.

Also, stop celebrating yourselves for being unfriendly arseholes to people.

being unfriendly arseholes to people who do things that are not good things to do tho

The scene that celebrates itself being unfriendly arseholes.

I've been really enjoying this night's selection. No arseholism there anymore, either.

MS_EsR is a pfunkboy sock and no one will ever convince me otherwise.

please god no the sadness

i'm getting an empty room, is that a bug or is nobody there? it worked for me before at the weekend

ah solved

Just dropped some Level 42 - today's gonna be a good day people

Hello again.

Come join us, I'd love to hear some summery music tonight.

The uploads problem has already been sorted and now some of you have multiples of the same song in the queue (Tuomas, miketd). Come back and delete the extras! (Or don't...I'm sure they're fine bits of music that wouldn't wear out their welcome if played twice.)

google+ or gtfo

That's basically so you can keep a "favorites" list, which I've found is quite a useful tool. Instead of writing down songs you hear that you like, you just click a little heart while it's playing and it adds them to a list for you that you can back and look at anytime you want.

eh you can just set up a dummy Twitter account, it's an order of magnitude less risky than sharing your entire life with Google imo.

there's nobody on google+ yet. it's boring as fuck. paranoid about your personal info? don't share any.
