The Song Fight Bulletin Board

You had 3 Tyler Zahnkes today? Is that rhyming slang?
Or am I pronouncing 'Zahnkes' incorrectly?

I ain't no cock-ney.

Why is first fight date in strange "mm/yy/dd" format when the fight archive is in "mm/dd/yy"?

Did someone say Cock?

Edit: Sorry Spud! I guess those original instructions no longer apply now that I've found http://www.songfight.org/rockening/. Please ignore my silly email.

I finally submitted one. I had to let go of any anxieties associated with my description.

That would be due to a very odd typo, Bill. Fixed. Thanks for calling it to my attention. You're the first person to notice it. I think.

How many are there now? 70? Only 2,963 to go.

only 67, JB. It's a start. That's why it's now automated. I don't have to make the cards any more. Just post them.

Okay. Out of the first 10 packs, here's what I didn't get: 15-16 puzzle, Bortwein, Gert, Jute Gyte, Luke Henley, Sausage Boy, J.A.N.
Only one of Octothorpe, Glenn Case, Jim of Seattle, Kamakura, Ross Durand, Wreckdom, Lightning Shark, Fish Sausage, Intentionally Left Blank.

Tons of: Tyrell, Hostess, Cashpoint, Rachael Layne, Scrotean Hydra, Tyler Zahnke, Pigfarmer, Albatross, Klownhole.

Klownhole is the Mediterranean Ave. of Song Fight.

Had to google that - and can translate it to "Old Kent Rd", for anyone else only familiar with the British version.

I'm Baltic, apparently.

70 MC Milk-Plus card added.
71 Kompressor card added.

Thanks again, Niv. I feel like I should be giving you a portion of the 24 cents. OK, that went away. Phew.

I got my first pack last night. Two Octothorpes, two Albatrosses, not a single band I play in...

Who wants to trade? Only cost us each a stamp.

You're welcome. It's a lazy day of my vacation and this is pretty fun. I've also contacted some Songfighters to see if they want to submit cards and hopefully they'll participate.

Hey Niv, I have been refining the submission site, and I have tweaked the font size in the band name bar to make it closer to the final card. I am very close to showing the actual artwork in the preview instead of a mock-up, but for now, this will have to do.

Man, I'm missing a lot of good ones.

Also, I just noticed that on the index card, "Lightning Shark" is misspelled (as "Lightening Shark").

20 Marcus Kellis' from 5 packs?!?

I assume he means 2 Marcus Kellises. (Kelli?)

I've been in touch with Rabid Garfunkel and he intends to submit his info when he finishes unpacking. He just moved into a new place.

Oops, fixed, I actually only got one Marcus (there is only one Marcus!). I was brainfarting while typing out the numbers and I guess I missed that one.
