    I suppose thats why music is so subjected, I did find it hard to listen properly, basically it didn't agree with the implant. :D

    Might need some new batteries :D

    I feel asleep before the reveal began.

    Ah I like the Beasties but this tune gets so stuck in my head I cant help but enjoy it. In a maddening way.

    Define how the Triggometer works. What scoring categories do you use.

    Same! Thought I might have been pitching to the wrong audience with my choice and was dreading the wooden spoon. 11th place is as good as a podium finish for me here. Cheers Trig. :D

    Its very complex, a little too complex for people to understand..

    Ah no, I listen to each song at least 5 times. The first time is a straight up listen, then with the lyrics beside me, then again without to see how it find it again. Then I listen twice focusing on the music. Each time marking out of 10.. but its not a straight 1-10 could be 6.5 or 8.2 depending on different things, then I take the average of that
