ATRL Moderator Unoriginal Posted May 11, 2019 ATRL Moderator Posted May 11, 2019 Is TW2018 happening? 2016's and 2017's Part 1s were well done by this point and their respective Part 2s were well underway for ballot submissions but to my knowledge we've heard nothing about 2018 so far
World Eater Posted May 11, 2019 Posted May 11, 2019 right, I was just thinking about this, is tw2018 even happening?

I was getting ready to launch a couple of weeks ago and my computer crashed. I lost Photoshop, so I can’t make graphics anymore. But I do owe it to you all to actually do this thing.

Pink Matter Posted May 19, 2019 Posted May 19, 2019 I've said this before but I think rates are only dead/dying down because we don't have any new blood that's interested in doing them (the last time we let new people register was 12/2017 right? And those new members that registered recently were from back then I believe?). I feel like the reason rates are dying down now is because old members that hosted rates just don't have the time to do so. Or maybe I'm just speaking for myself since life has gotten busier for me. Idk, but it's sad because this thread used to be so lit and popping back in the day but we've pretty much only moved five pages in the past five months

Sad

Sad The Alt Rate was hosted way back at the start of the year for some reason (with a different lineup than that) Supa said he's working on TW2018 Part 1 as well

I didn't see it in the OP so I assumed it never finished. TW2018 Pt. 1 and 2 should've been/underway by now though
Blue Rose Posted May 19, 2019 Posted May 19, 2019 Besides Daytona and Honey, none the TW2018 contenders have aged well TW2019 contenders so far Spellling, Weyes Blood, Solange, Julia Cracklin, James Blake. not very exciting
Kyoto Posted May 19, 2019 Posted May 19, 2019 Being honest, I miss most of the rates because I don't see them. If we had a section just for rates like games/YTT/etc, I think they would be more successful.
The Unforgiving Posted May 19, 2019 Posted May 19, 2019 Is it possible to host a rate in the entertainment section with the tag "rate"? I want to host a characters rate for GoT

And I'm not even remotely caught up on 2019 music so I can't even agree or disagree on the latter point 31 minutes ago, Scarface said: Being honest, I miss most of the rates because I don't see them.

Rates have always done pretty well in the past just being in the Base but for some reason there's just been a shift in the interest of these kinds of threads. I think the shift was some time around the Summer or Fall of last year. The last big rate to my knowledge were the Tinashe and Janelle Monae Discography Rates and those finished back in August and September.

I dont think i want to sit through part1 albums again. Using Chris in Alternative rate was the right and best fit for that album. It all worked out very well.

Yeah I was thinking to myself I might actually do Pt. 2 if it happens. Those albums look lit And thanks for reminding me of Freedom. I'd meant to relisten to it because of last years Best Of.
