bruh you can divide 1 measure of 3/4 by to 12 if you use 16th notes

idk what you mean by odd meter, presumably something like 5/4? but even that…you have 3 measures of 5/4, thats 20 16th notes a measure…60 16th notes total, you can divide that by 12 lol.
Any song can be divided by 12 if you make it a /12

Weird misnomer “odd meter” usually refers to odd time signatures excluding 3/4 (so 5/4, 7/4, etc)
and yes every meter eventually has a least common denominator with 4/4, you see this in a lot of UM songs where Kris/Scotty plays 4/4 over an odd meter guitar riff and at some point they all land on the 1 together. Crucial Taunt has one of my favorite ones of those
back to your original point though, 3/4 and 4/4 both divide very evenly into 12 because of the fact that 3*4 = 12
but anyways i think he is talking about number of times played on ATU lol

this makes so much more sense with his selection of songs but id never have been able to figure that out
My post had nothing to do with time signatures lol
@el_sordo here’s what my post meant.
Go to ATU and get a list of songs sorted alphabetically. Assign each a number, starting with 1. Pull only songs that are a clean multiple of 12 (ie 12, 24, 36, 48, etc). That list includes Attachments, Conduit, Final Word, Make It Right, Muffburger Sandwich, Padgett’s Profile, Rocker Part 2, Spires, Bottom Half, Triple Wide, Uncommon, and many other less played songs.
If instead of sorting alphabetically you generate the list by date they were debuted (oldest to newest) the list includes Thin Air, All Thing Ninja, Pay the Snucka, Anchor Drops, Blue Echo, Push the Pig, Bad Poker, Nemo, Passing, Mantis, It Doesn’t Matter, Escape Goat, Staircase, and many other less played songs.

N2F and Reso were ABT songs and have been in rotation this summer. They also played Booth Love and Bayliss plays Jake’s part on Concessions. Probably grasping at straws but I think there’s a glimmer of hope 
Jake has sole song writing credits for Booth Love on DBS. As I’ve said I don’t think it matters at all who wrote what. They’ll play what they want to play if they think they can do it without Jake.

I think one of the craziest unlikely Jake bustouts would be Bad Poker
most Jake songs I’m sad about but will ultimately understand not seeing again. However, Fir is the one song that IMO needs to return. UM live staple.

Little Gift is another that comes to mind for me.
Little Gift would be easy. Bad Poker is unique to me because its basically a Jake autobiography
