The lockdown is a bit hard on the morale, but right now mostly in good spirits. Thanks !
Woo! I'll admit to being a bit overwhelmed these days by, you know... the world we now live in. My life has been nuts. I am working from home, which for about a week seemed kind of cool, but wore thin pretty quick. My toddler is home with me a lot of the time which, don't get me wrong, is amazing, but also makes it difficult to be very productive. In any case, I debated punting here, but I am going all in. This may be EXACTLY the distraction I need and I've known the album since I threw my name in the hat when these forums were born. So, with that... the games will begin in a few weeks!
Good luck

I think we need a timely reminder of pretty much the only rule that we set out at the start.
Is there an obi for #4 Camaron? I missed that one.
Anyway, they look great! Cheers to @Alexander for making these!

Awesome, thanks! I didn't think to look in your thread.

BTW, with Vol. 11 being announced this club is officially one year old, isn't it? Would y'all be down for a discussion/retrospective of the records we have featured? Not a ranking, but maybe do pick our "Biggest surprise", "Most spun", "Slow grower", etc.
I think with us starting on a half month numbered zero those french anarchists @Skalap and @ChristoBee have landed us with a 13 month first year

Yeah I fully intend to do this, going back through the first year of AOTMs and giving my thoughts on them and such. I think it will be fun to see everyone reminisce over them ^_^
Yeah definitely, whilst I hate any ideas of ranking a good reminisce sounds lovely!

Yeah I dont wanna rank them. Also because all of the AOTMs are so different, it's hard to compare them! I do think people are generally going to say which AOTM has been their favorite which I see no harm in
Neither do I, I just know, as I’m sure you do too, that by picking one you’re kinda putting a bit of yourself out there. I completely understand it not being the one someone picks as their favourite, or even it not being someone’s cup of tea. That said. I can‘t pretend I’d not be a little devastated if it was towards the bottom of a list or if someone called it shit.

Why not. I would like to know what you guys consider the second best AoTM after Mark de Clive-Lowe.
Why not indeed, I’m embracing your anarchistic ways
As for the second part, big of you to admit, but I think it’d be mean to say

I had Gloaming 3 and Heritage I on my end of year best of 2019 list. But I’ll be darned if I can remember now which of those I had ranked higher!
Anyway, I’m down for joining in on a retrospective. My thoughts are probably going to be slanted to the first half of the selections because I used to start from 0 and work my way up through all the previous picks to the newly announced album, then spin that one about 5 times. But then that got to be too time consuming.
