Looks like Attack on Memory is killing this. And that is without the 15 Baloo is eventually going to throw on it.

Solid list.

Though I do think you need to assign values to your albums as you have more than ten. But Baloo can talk to you about that.

Yeah, you have to assign point values, up to a total of 55, with no album getting more than 15.
