DENIZENS OF CLASSIC ROCK TUMBLR: I PRESENT TO YOU....

ROCKLEMANIA 2024

You may be asking yourself: Okay, Violet, what the fuck are you up to now? And when are you gonna get back to writing your fucking essays? And I would say to you: that's quite rude, chill out. Anyway, Rocklemania is an idea I conceived ("no, I wasn't conceived" quote here) during the Beatles v. Monkees poll, the massive Yes poll, and recently my very own Rush v. ELP poll. What do all these things have in common? Theoretical violence between rock bands! So, I thought to myself that it would be fun to do this with a shit ton of different bands in a March Madness style tournament bracket.

Each day during Rocklemania (which will begin on March 1st, 2024 to coincide with March Madness), I will post a couple polls (the amount is to be determined based on how many submissions I get), which will stage a theoretical fist fight between two rock bands. You guys will vote on who would win in this situation, and based on the results of the poll, the winner would move on, and I would write a funny little scenario describing what I think would've happened.

The submission form is NOW OPEN HERE!!!! You do not have to submit any personal information, any email, nada. Just what bands you'd like to be considered for this tournament. You can even submit more than once if you want! One thing I do ask is, just because there are SO MANY FUCKING BANDS OUT THERE, is please try to keep it limited to 60s and 70s bands! If you have any other suggestions, I will still consider them based on how funny I think they would be. One last thing: try to only submit 3 bands in each category, so I don't have an overwhelming number of bands to sort through! Last day to submit will be February 23rd, 2024.

Anyway, please, please PLEASE reblog to spread the word of Rocklemania 2024!!!!

(this is a tournament bracket btw)

CLASH! Playtest Campaign Diary, April 14, 2024

Preamble 1: CLASH! is currently crowdfunding! If you're interested in supporting my work, check it out here.

Preamble 2: Truth be told, I'm bragging here. I don't usually do campaign diaries; but this session was special. I'd just finished a huge rework of the system, and I was terrified about whether it'd work as intended, or if I'd need to go back to the drawing board and further delay development. I needn't have worried; we played an episode of anime.

It's time for the first official round of the Battle of the Bands. After qualifying against DJ twins Oskaar and Byrna, classic rock & roll band Nail in the Coffin is up for their first real opponent; TOEJAM, noise music duo and technical masters.

Kenshin (The Analyst), the protege of the band's missing sponsor Ian Sachs, needs to win big to follow the clues about his missing teacher. Princess Moonbeam (The Specialist), frontwoman and mysterious European weirdo, has just been informed that her favorite glam-rock band, Xenon, will be performing in town in a few days. She needs to look good if she's going to impress her idols. And Kit Tripod (The Vessel), the band's drummer, knows that winning this contest means an official meeting with Beatrice Boxer - the woman she thinks killed her father.

The battle begins without much unusual; two Contests, one win and one loss for an even score of 1-1 against TOEJAM. It's at this point that Kit's player remembers to play with the new rules and activates a Tech: Shadow on the Wall.

Raising her drumsticks above her head, TOEJAM's guitarist momentarily thinks that he sees the image of a fiend - Tom Snare, the Demon of Drums, glimpsed through stage lights. The guitarist gains the Hopeless Condition, hampering his ability to gain Potential.

With this, the floodgates open. Kenshin opens his next turn with Look Out!, giving Moonbeam useful intel on the duo for her next turn.

Meanwhile, his own turn goes to a CLASH!, Insight versus Insight, against TOEJAM's masterful DJ. Everyone at the table stands up and cheers as his four dice come up with two 6's, while the DJ's five dice land with only one.

With one uneventful turn on the part of Kit, it's 2-2. Whoever wins the next Contest goes on to the next round of the Battle of the Bands, and it's Princess Moonbeam's turn.

The Bidding phase begins slowly; tension filling the room. Moonbeam has five Insight, but no other Pool to speak of. If she lets it slip, she's doomed against the Powerhouse DJ. But we know that TOEJAM has almost no Potential left; they don't have much bluffing power.

Moonbeam ups her bid. At the table, the GM looks at her player thoughtfully.

The DJ activates his Super.

We start to get excited; having spent all of his Potential, the DJ is left with four Force dice against Moonbeam's five Insight and 2 Potential, which she turns into 4 more dice.

We all hold our breath as the DJ makes his roll - one 6. There's a breath of relief at the table - we can do this. We just need a single 6 from a pool of nine dice.

Then, Moonbeam rolls.

No 6's. Not a single one from her entire pool.

It is dead silent at the table. We just lost our first fight. We just lost our first fight, and it got us disqualified us from the Battle of the Bands. Everyone is flabbergasted.

How could this happen? How did Nail in the Coffin lose in their second match? How will Kit get to Beatrice Boxer now? Will Princess Moonbeam embarrass herself in front of her favorite band? And where is Ian Sachs?

Find out next time, on Battle of the Bands!

It was honestly perfect. We knew the stakes of the fight;

Every character had a clear goal, and a lot of drive to achieve it;

And at the end of the day? We lost the tournament arc.

Because of course we did! The heroes can never win the tournament - they have to learn from their losses and find a new way to chase their dreams.

Propaganda: You can't do a hottest 80s band tournament without The Fab Five. They set off fashion trends. They made your Mom (or possibly your grandma if you're real young) swoon. They led the way into the video era. They were Princess Di's favorite band. They got really overexposed, botched a performance at Live Aid and then imploded before coming back as a trio but the classic line-up, the one that brought us Rio and Girls on Film and Hungry Like the Wolf were these five guys. This is Duran Duran and I love them.

Hii I'm somewhat new to your blog but I just had a little idea

What about teen!y/n with their adoptive family who has killer vocals (literally and figuratively) they decide to compete in the games and their dressed in clothing that metal band members would wear, and they just sing Custer by Slipknot (or any other song) and since they have killer vocals their screams/singing just turns into supersonic sound waves causing their opponent to literally explode

Sorry if this doesn't make much sense I'm running off of 3 hours if sleep ✌😗 love ur writings and thanks in advance ❤❤❤

-Your skills were regarded as unique, even for those in Valhalla.

-Some regarded you as a siren, as your singing voice could not only enchant but cause damage, you could use your voice as a weapon.

-Your family had adopted you when you were only a child, protecting you from those who wanted to use your skills for their own gains, both good and bad, and raised you with so much love and support.

-As you grew, your music interests went from one end of the spectrum to the other, constantly changing the styles that you were currently singing, one day you could be singing the blues, next opera, and the next classic rock.

-When Ragnarok came around again, being a yearly tournament, you decided to participate this time, rather than just participating in the half-time show entertainment.

-The reason for this, some punk ass minor god had insulted you after finding you singing to some kids, not for your singing skills, but that you were a human and that you weren’t worthy of being the collective child of the strongest gods and warriors in Valhalla, that you weren’t strong.

-Normally you were pretty thick skinned, but he made some of the kids cry after insulting you.

-You walked out, wearing a pair of black jeans shorts, thigh high platform goth boots with spikes, a tank top with a unicorn skull on it, holding a full stand microphone that was the shape of a skull, a gift from Beelzebub and Hades for your last birthday.

-You glared across at the god who smirked, seeing you there, teasing you, “Aww what’s the matter sweetie? Did I hurt you feelings last time?”

-He instantly felt a chill run up his spine and he looked up at your family, seeing them glaring, but the malice was not coming from them.

-He paled, looking back down at you as you were leaning on your microphone, eyes glaring into his own, he felt a bolt of fear run through him before he was quick to smirk, acting cocky.

-Your voice belted into the microphone, sending sonic waves all around you as ‘My Name is Murder’ came from you, gripping the pole of your microphone, focusing the power of your voice to aim at this stunned god, who couldn’t believe you were attacking him with sound waves.

-Your family was cheering for you and large sections of the crowd were headbanging to your singing, cheering loudly for you.

-You won easily, the sonic waves blasting your opponent off of the arena and into the water surrounding the stone arena you stood on and the crowd cheered loudly, wanting an encore.

-Which you were happy to provide, a grin on your face.

Hello, everyone!

I've enjoyed very much the recent trend of all possible kinds of tournaments, and ever since the beginning, I flirted with the idea of organizing one myself, too. And, well, I'm not obsessed with cat color genetics just to choose some other theme! So I made plans with the intention of never using them, then I started collecting pictures and putting together posts just because I enjoyed it, and then I thought about making a sideblog ("what name should I use?") and… Here we are!

I'll tag a few tournament blogs that were my sources of inspiration to try myself out: @best-fictional-cat @warriorcatspilled @periodictabletournament @mushroom-showdown @snakeswagbracket @rock-swag-tournament

As the wild type, the black mackerel tabby will be our base cat: if it's possible, I will illustrate the effect of the different alleles with the change caused on this phenotype. I'll mostly use oriental shorthairs because they come in lots of colors and because i like them.

The genes in the tournament: agouti, brown, color restriction, dilute, dilute modifier, extension, inhibitor, mackerel/classic, orange, persian wide band, siberian wide band, spotted, ticked, white spotting, and karpati (because I love that one). This means we have one more empty spot for which I'm looking for suggestions! If you have a good candidate or a rare favorite, I'd love it if you dropped it in my askbox.

Bangor, Maine Goodwill - July 26th, 2023

First time taking my new cell phone into the thrift store, and boy was I rewarded! Bit of a long post, so please bear with me. Less-funny stuff goes below the cut.

"I squat. Please see back for details" - [blank back] I only got the joke just now, as I'm making this post. (The wearer's butt is proof that they squat.)

"Squat: because no one raps about little butts. #ClubFitWear"

Thrifty Thirsty items: "One thirsty B[price tag]" water bottle and "Stay thirsty, my friends TM" t-shirt (Dos Equis beer).

multiple Milwaukee [power tool brand] t-shirts in a few sizes. Most just had the smaller logo on the back, but one had an additional slogan. "My tool lasts longer than your tool." I bought that one, as a gift for a friend.

"Tunnel of Oppression" shirt with Custom Ink tag still attached. UMaine did their installation in 2018/2019, but other colleges have had similar installations over the years.

"Ye Olde Timers Tournament" hockey shirt for UMaine's Alfond Arena. Design was just on the chest, to the side.

Shoegaze band tees: Turnover @turnoverva and Gleemer. The Gleemer shirt has the lyrics for their song "Cool Back".

Had left these behind but went back for them the next day.

Tiny plastic pig, glued to a rock, left in the crafts.

BeWaRe Halloween sign. Cute but too glittery for my tastes.

classic soup mugs with recipes

new stock, embossed metal lunch boxes: BFG and Big Bird

The 1993 Cows Cows Cows Calendar I liked that June's image included a cat.

Soft-sculpture doll with… startling? embroidered eyes. Idk, it just unnerved me.

"That's what she said" socks, from "The Office"

Giant, completed puzzle- a group photo of teddy bears

"Just another wine drinker with a scrapbooking problem" More like a font abuse problem. Bonus points for the K in "booking" being tipsy.

Not thrift, but this was the employee ID fob hanging in the car I scraped with my truck, as I was leaving the hospital.

"It's fine. I'm fine. Everything's fine." [image of a green dumpster on fire]

PS thank you for the aro bracket :))

omg the top 32 from rate your music would be so cool...... i would love to do the classic rock bands but i think that i would attract too many gatekeepers lmao
