Best monthly roundups (except for me of course): Sniff (was BlazinBlitzer for a while, but he stopped doing them, much to my disappointment) | 2 | | Alcian Blue Years Too Late
Best talk-participate-have a good time-chill thread maker: butcherboy | 3 | | Dislocation Dance Midnight Shift

DrGonzo1937 | 6 | | Elemantra Nature Trash
Best Sputnik user's very own music:
Nikolai and oWhoadYo | 7 | | Asylum Party Borderline
The one, whose tastes nobody understands, and yet he posts a dozen lists a week mentioning those exact tastes: KManoc1 (this was much more relevant when I wrote it back in like April or March or something) | 8 | | Dark Day Exterminating Angel
The challenges:
Sniff's classic streak (http://www.sputnikmusic.com/list.php?listid=175275&memberid=552322)

Good/Bad Recommendation Competition Series (http://www.sputnikmusic.com/list.php?memberid=1053649&listid=176240)
and some others... | 10 | | Martin Dupont Just Because
The one, who keeps posting threads about nothing that people weirdly enough understand: BallsToTheWall | 11 | | Skeletal Family Burning Oil
Best argumentator: DoofusWainwright (or Arcade) | 12 | | Yeesh Confirmation Bias
The one who always causes you to either laugh or get butthurt: fullautorpg (also, used to be more relevant when I wrote him down... if anything, this thread is a testament to how quickly relevance fades) | 13 | | Art Objects Bagpipe Music
The one that embarrased and bested me in my own field: RikRoach7 (bet none of you know what I'm referring to, but I know...I will always know) | 14 | | The Afghan Whigs In Spades
Bands I've been introduced to this year and who made that possible:
The Afghan Whigs - butcherboy
Orchid - bgillesp
Matt Elliott - random browsing through Sputnik and Arnaud's review | 15 | | Brand New Science Fiction
My first reviews, my subsequent grand fuck up, and why I should have stuck to making inoffensive monthly roundups:
http://www.sputnikmusic.com/review/74617/King-Gizzard-and-The-Lizard-Wizard-Sketches-of-Brunswick-East-w--Mild-High-Club/
http://www.sputnikmusic.com/review/74626/Brand-New-Science-Fiction/ | 16 | | Stray From the Path Only Death Is Real
Worst soundoff section of the year: Stray From the Path - Only Death is Real, which in no time turned into a piss fight of poorly politically informed dweebs (thankfully, it got cleared up a little afterwards) (Brand New - Science Fiction is a close second) | 17 | | James White and the Blacks Off White
Most pleasant thread day for me: 6.9.2017 (can't fucking remember why, guess it was just really pleasant) | 18 | | The Fall The Fall - Singles 1978-2016
Best reviews: The Fall - Singles 1978-2016 by butcherboy and pretty much anything Claire wrote. | 19 | | Dif Juz Extractions
King of soundoffs: RoundOnEndHiInMiddle | 20 | | undertheskin undertheskin
Overlooked reviewers of the overlooked: ljubinkozivkovic, SAPoodle, InsightOut | 21 | | Vestfalia's Peace Loneliness
People with the best vocabulary: clavier, verdant, plane | 22 | | Rhythm Of Cruelty Dysphoria
The elders: Aiwaz, Dewinged, teamster | 23 | | Colin Newman A-Z
My Death Metal friends: SitruK, Marehelm, brainmelter | 24 | | Gattopardo Gattopardo

I'm sure I forgot someone... sorry | 25 | | Dream Affair Endless Days
Cool new users: butcherboy of course, MayhemWithMercy, yanquiuxo, ZombieToyDuck | 26 | | Howard Devoto Jerky Versions of the Dream
And I'm sorry if I'm ever a cunt to anyone around here or seem too arrogant and pompous, I don't mean to... I've always been a tad off and an asshole, so sorry if you find it obnoxious. I mean it in good fun, but if anything you can just tell me and I'll stop... | |

12.20.17 | Cheers, Uni. | Papa Universe
12.20.17 | huh, the Stray Away from Path is much cleaner now than it was upon the album's release.. | pjquinones747
12.20.17 | There should be a perennial section for people who only poke their heads out from the lurker's gallery in December. | butcherboy
12.20.17 | Ayyy, Uni,, been a good year, you gent.. twas a blast getting to know you.. | Papa Universe
12.20.17 | ^this guy, right there | TheWrenKing
12.20.17 | uni you''re an idiot but a harmless one

12.20.17 | yeah, alright | Papa Universe
12.20.17 | Not sure about the idiot, but I'm definitely harmless. I'm so harmless, I couldn't harm a pig with a spoon. | Marehelm
12.20.17 | Sweet list, my man! Especially assembling the competitions and challenges | Papa Universe
12.20.17 | I wanted to assemble all of them, but I got lazy. | Marehelm
12.20.17 | A wise man once said: "So it goes." | Papa Universe
12.20.17 | I don't remember saying that... | neekafat
12.20.17 | Aw thanks dude c: | Marehelm
12.20.17 | That's because it was Vonnegut | Papa Universe

12.21.17 | m/ m/ | bgillesp
12.21.17 | Darn, I didn't make your friends list... At least I got you into Orchid | bgillesp
12.21.17 | Either way I enjoyed your tourney and Rec roulette while it lasted. Your making things difficult just for the sake of ruining our days was pretty fun. Also your throwing 500 recs into lists has grown into a charm for me, so keep doing that to other people but not me :) | Papa Universe
12.21.17 | There we go, I knew I forgot someone. Added though.
Also, "while it lasted"... are you implying that we won't be doing rec roulette anymore? | Papa Universe
12.21.17 | Did you change your username or something? I doubt I ever interacted with anyone named remotely similar to what your name is. | Papa Universe
12.21.17 | Ehm... okay then. Have a... good day...? | Conmaniac
12.21.17 | aww love u too dude, been a fun year and thanks to you ive been introduced to well over 100 new artists/albums...cheers man | Dewinged
12.21.17 | Love u Uni! It's been a great sput year and I hope you stick around for some more. Cheers, elder brother! | AsleepInTheBack
12.21.17 | much love uniq ... I mean papa | BlushfulHippocrene
12.21.17 | Lovely list, Uni, hope next year's an even better one. | bgillesp
12.21.17 | I just meant I don't think Fripp will ever finish. I'd love too because I have 4 good rounds in mind | bgillesp
