Foo fighters, eh?

You got me for randomburn?
Lucky you.

What exactly are the rules? Is it the first ten random songs? Do you do different CDs for different people?

I've done 5 the same
18 songs, all random. I think you're allowed 3 swaps. I've changed the order a bit.

It'll have a nice cover on it, too, I made that today and another thing what I made

Set your media player (wmp is actually quite good at this) to random
drag say 25 to the burn window. It'll spill over into 2 cds. You get 3 same-artist deletes (2 songs by the same artist? Pick one to remove) and the overspill moves up onto your CD. Then you get 2 "I want this song featured so I'll take another one off" swaps. Then you arrange what songs you've got into a nice thematic order and burn 5 of the suckers.

I don't think I arranged them well,
but there seemed to be a few themes, namely pirates, identity crises and a couple of sad 'end of a record' tracks

I made a couple of compilation CDs a few years back
and the first one got a pretty muted reaction, and for the second I arranged the tracks mellowest/slowest to heaviest/fastest and got positive feedback from several people. So I try and do that now, or start rocking and gradually mellow out, or have a silly song at the start and at the end....

usually I have a theme
which, unsurprisingly, is usually based around whatever the main theme in larp is that year

Everything you are saying here is right
apart from the 'nice view' thing.

Wind farms old boy.
Those things have a graceful beauty and are required as we have passed peak oil production. Anyone that values a lovely view over renewables is a cunt of SpankyHanky proportions.

I much prefer shoddy nuclear plants.
