you mentioned trivia in the release post on the main page. it would take away from the scream zone :( but it could be fun...
i would suggest reprogramming Killbot so he would not play songs longer than 5-7 mins.
also some database cleanup. you probably already know what im talking about...
I already tried to limit songs by length, but there was a revolt and I was nearly lynched. FYI, killbot and listeners must have the same rule to work with in order for requesting to work properly.
PPL can PM me if they find mistakes in HMR. I know that TBDM 'Unhallowed' needs to be fixed.

Song length restriction would be a bad idea in my opinion. I am sure that there are plenty of undiscovered gems in the database that are rather lengthy, and I wouldn't want to miss out entirely on the chance to hear them. Most people have a fairly narrow range of songs they request and if killbot doesn't have free reign of the entire database (save perhaps a new restricted section) then there's not much point in having 100k songs on the site.
On that note it would be nice if killbot could keep track of whats been played and not repeat until everything has been played at least once. That should keep the variety flowing for a good long while.
It is a good idea to have Killbot only play songs with 0 plays, but probably unworkable in practice. The poor toaster would simply never catch up. If Killbot ever did catch up, then any new album would be the only thing chosen for a while.
An excellent sounding idea, though. Maybe Killbot should do themes. Ha! Start him off with "Dark"
additional search options...
one thing i greatly missed during the hiatus was searching a word in the title to form a theme. one thing i found was other search options... (ie: year, added, genre, etc) ssH8
Re: additional search options...
Though technically possible, many of the earlier albums don't have 'year' and many thousands of songs generes are simply set to 'metal' or 'heavy metal' not their actual sub genre.

true enough... but something is better than nothing, and though a daunting task, it would be great to clean some of that up... I know ianf has offered to edit, as would I.
Play songs that never play...stop songs that play to much
