I press the random page option sometimes when i visit the wiki. This popped up today.

https://sisterswiki.org/Emma_(Dominion_ ... ard_Flexi)

Ofc I got the postcard without the spiral scratch. :cry:

Does anyone have one of these? How much of Emma does this media contain?

There were others, but this one seems most interesting to me.

If it's the size of a real postcard wouldn't the grooves be too close to the centre to be able to play?

It's a dumb idea, and a player that could manage to reach the run out groove would be tracking very badly.

if these things are technically unplayable couldnt they just be purporting to be playable? i mean, i used top have a 2" Technics keyring which purported to be a working record deck! :lol:

I had a record player that was so sensitive you couldn't even select the final track of an album because it'd trigger the arm to lift off, you just had to listen to the track before and let it play.

And with those rare albums that end with a locked groove - it'd only ever play half of it before lifting off.

If you could disable that mechanism (or didn't have a stupidly fussy turntable) then you'd be able to play those postcards.
They'd sound like crap though, and you have the songs on proper vinyl anyway.

Verdict: Gimmick.

^^ If one assumes no effort was made to edit Emma for the format.
