Metallica (a.k.a. The Black Album)

RE: REVEAL - Homer J. Fong's "Difficult Second Walrus"...now with added HEEPS! - Homer J. Fong - 01-05-2022

"EXIT POINTS,
ENTER SHEEP!"

A double Heeps here, with osh and Shane landing on different sides but getting the same points. It's not going too well for Aris, however. 

And the purple tin continues to Ace.

It's Kol out in front, with RSoaPS in second and Sawduck holding on in third. The "Ace every round" strategy is not really paying dividends for the purple tin just yet.

Shane and osh still look like they may finish strongly here. Aris and Zaph need a bit of luck in the remaining rounds to maintain their charge for the title. 

And poor E.N. must have swapped his Liverpool jersey for an Everton one, as his title challenge becomes a battle against relegation!

You're talking to the guy who once entered an Alphabet HEEPS, and Sheeped every single round until it came to the letter N.  Big Grin Unsurprisingly, the wooden spoon was mine that day (and deservedly so!)

I'm a bit surprised that neither 'Hand In My Pocket' nor 'You Learn' picked up a single vote here.

I usually despise HEEPS with a fiery passion, but I'm really enjoying this one... My strategy was obviously to just pick my favourite song from each album...

RE: REVEAL - Homer J. Fong's "Difficult Second Walrus"...now with added HEEPS! - Homer J. Fong - 01-05-2022

Wake Up? Shoulda stayed asleep, mate!
Only one pick for Power Out, not really something to shout about. 
Nobody at all is digging Tunnels.

And the purple tin continues to purple Ace (but he picked one of my favourites from this album so I'll forgive him!)

@Kol is giving us a HEEPS masterclass, and holds a commanding lead over the trio of Shane, osh and RSoaPS fighting for second place.

Poor @E.N. is giving us a SHEEPing masterclass, but in the wrong game.

RE: REVEAL - Homer J. Fong's "Difficult Second Walrus"...now with added HEEPS! - Homer J. Fong - 01-05-2022

Unlike Funeral, we can safely say that here the 'Power' IS out. Unlike E.N.'s Sheeping streak, which continues to the very end. Baaaad luck, @E.N..

Shane appears to have pipped osh and RSoaPS to second place by a single point.

And @cee_jay very thoughtlessly ruins the purple tin's streak of Aces!  Confused

Where there's a tie, I will take the average of the two places in the table. e.g. If there were two winners, they would get (17+16)*0.5 = 16.5 points each.

So our final FINAL points for the round are:

With an impressive final tally of 80.5 points, our Walrus-HEEPS champion is.....


...........


@osh !!!
Congratulations Mister, very well played. 

Our long-time leader @Irish Aris misses out by just one point, but still takes a respectable silver medal.
And thanks to a late charge in the final three rounds, @ShaneU sprints over the line to take bronze.

At the other end of the table, the purple tin is our Wooden Spoon winner. Purple, I hope you're still out there somewhere (maybe here under a different guise) and if not then I hope you'll rejoin us one day.

Thank you to everybody who took part in this. I'm so sorry it took so long to get revealed, a number of IRL things happened in between that derailed my focus (nothing too traumatic, thankfully, just a lot of little things). But I really do appreciate you all entering, and I hope you enjoyed it. I also hope my tardiness does not dissuade you from participating in future Walrus games! 

Here is our final table.

@Zaph, @Necro, @Sawduck, @Hello 2D Person Below, @Rachel Stevens on a Pogo Stick, @E.N., @jp liz v1, @Kol , @cee_jay, @Barna77, @Cdeb, @Declan A Walsh and @Tauriel - thank you all so much again. 

A Walrus Round of Applause for you all!

Thanks for running the game @Homer J. Fong - lots of fun throughout and great reveal.

RE: REVEAL - Homer J. Fong's "Difficult Second Walrus"...now with added HEEPS! - Zaph - 01-05-2022

Took a while to get there, but it was definitely worth the wait (well maybe the HEEPS round not so much Big Grin ), so thanks for a great game Homer.  And congrats to Osh, a very worthy winner.

RE: REVEAL - Homer J. Fong's "Difficult Second Walrus"...now with added HEEPS! - osh - 01-05-2022

Wow down to the wire there. Never usually do well in sheep, heeps etc so quite surprised I managed to pull through. Especially after my final round song didn't do great. I'm glad it grew a little on you though after a few listens as I definitely needed the extra point or two!

Cheers for the reveal Homer, well run as always.

Unlucky with the heeps Zaph, it's a lottery really!

Holy Eighties, Batman! shock  This is the Eighties-est thing that ever Eighties-ed. And I mean that in a good way. Annoyingly this song is seemingly impossible to find on streaming services, but that’s the only complaint I have. Surprised I hadn’t heard it before, I like this much more than other supposed Eighties “classics”. Definitely made for shouting along to at 3am, when you’re several beers in but have absolutely no intention of slowing down. Very nice pick, and another one for the running playlist....or at least it would be if I could stream it. >_<;

I thought this might have been recognisable from The Terminator, it's played during the nightclub scene where Arnie first finds Sarah.

[b]Comments:

Never heard of this guy before so didn’t know what to expect, but what I’ve heard here I very much like. This song has a nice mix of indie, folk, blues and pop in one neat package. Will be checking out more by him for sure. An instantly likeable, infectiously hummable tune and a very strong pick.

Ah delighted you liked it. It's not even the best song on that album, Across The Borders, well worth a listen. Real kind of summery 70s American vibe to it, I was very surprised to learn he's Icelandic!

Thanks for the game Homer, apart from the car crash HEEPS Tongue

Great write ups, loads of which piqued my interest, looking forward to catching up with the music when I get a chance

Enjoy the hols!

It really was down to the wire, I genuinely had no idea who had won while I was posting the reveals. It was only after I posted the Heeps results that I put all the scores together and was like "oh, it's osh". Big Grin

If you like 80s sci fi, action, Arnie, then yeah and part 2 also.

I've never seen The Blues Brothers, it just doesn't sound like a movie I'd like. I'm sure it's very good otherwise. I may watch it sometime out of curiosity
