Power Hour

2008-09-21 01:45:12

After doing a little research I found no recent plugin designed for a drinking game called a power hour.

For those who dont know, a power hour goes like this:

1 hour
60 Songs
60 Seconds played per song
Song changes every minute for one hour
Players consume 1 shot of beer after every song change.

Anyways it's a very fun game to play with friends, and a good way to start up the night. Winamp offers a nice plugin... but i use foobar now 

The other plugin allowed a song to start at a random interval inserted by the user (ex. between 10 and 30 secconds) to avoid annoying intros, so that functionality would be nice.  Also a player add/remove list that calculates your BAC level as you drink (by proof and weight)

Just putting in a little request because i've looked everywhere for a foobar based solution, and i'll go crazy if i have to use the iTunes based iPowerHour.

Wow!

Ever once and awhile, when I am not diligently watching from all directions, something slips through and I feel old. <g>

Not to worry OP, I am pretty sure Peter is working on this.

Actually there IS a plugin that does this! It's called foo_preview, and will play every song from a specified percentage into the song, during a specified percentage or seconds.

All you need to add is a playlist with 60 songs, and manually turn it on/off
