There's 12 one-pointers. Mines was almost one but one of the very last lists had it and not high enough to make the Countdown.
I BET I HAVE ONE ON THERE.

So let me just get this outta the way. I apologize to RHCP and completely left BSSM of my list. One of the greatest albums I have ever heard and hit me in that perfect window of youth. Makes me sad sometimes. Feel like you may only be able to make great music when you are holed up with a bag of dope.
I'm joking. I know you don't need a bag of dope. You need multiple bags. : D
On behalf of non RHCP fans i thanks you for your fogetfulness :p
My biggest screw up (that I've figured out this far) was forgetting Emperor from my list.
Around 25 minutes and i'll start making the thread. Will post the one-pointers right away and the first four albums shortly after, followed by a few more albums every hour or so.
The thread is made, waiting for someone to post so the first 20 posts aren't mine :laugh:

Camo, my G. Looking forward to your follow up countdown,
The MoFo List of Albums I Left off
My Greatest Albums of All-Time List.
The Countdown i want someone to run is a books one but i can't see it ever working out :(

Ha. I've got books I want to read, but I don't make time to read. Then when you promise someone you are gonna read this (https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/554220/the-soul-of-america-by-jon-meacham/9780399589812/), it goes by at a clip of 2-5 pages a week...
I'll get to those Michael Lewis books about 3 weeks after my funeral.
UGH!
I came here looking for the latest 5 albums of the day and all I see is chatter on a mock metal Beatles band from a week ago. I was so confused!! I wondered if SC convinced Camo to start deleting everything and I started freaking out lol.
In my defense, I did just wake up and looking here was the first thing I did this morning.
So relieved to learn there are two different threads going!
Will start todays 5 in around 45 minutes.
Cool. I will now quarantine this thread. Like that one episode of Star Trek TNG where they left a probe warning others not to enter. That's all I remember about the EP. That there was a problem. Maybe it was the owl man face cloud thing that just wanted to play by killing some of the crew. Maybe it was the one Picard broke a rib and hooked up with that obsessive chick that turned out to be an alien. Surely it wasn't a Q EP. He'd just destroy.....off topic.
Carry on!
*goes and sits quietly in the other thread*

I was thinking the same thing. Maybe it could even work, I don't know.

Doubt it personally. There's practically no literature discussion here and i can't see there being enough interest or favourites in common to put one together. If someone ends up running it though they'll get my list.

Surprisingly little discussion about books, that's true. Interest might be bigger issue than common favorites (at least I'd expect some big names would make it like in album and movie countdowns). And if it we'd count series as one entry it would probably help too. If someone runs it I'll send a list as well.

Absolutely no idea what you guys are talking about as herself is too busy right now to read the posts to me but put me down for sending one in as well :up:
