This week I'm hosting the chart forum quiz, and it's gonna be Pointless. The rules are all the same, but just a reminder:

1. There are 12 questions in this quiz, you have to give the answer guessing which of them is going to be the least popular between the players of Buzzjack.
2. A reminder that you must give the correct answer, and as we are playing it in the UK Chart forum, all the questions are about the official UK singles or albums chart (depending on question), unless otherwise stated. "Tricks" with giving the answer from UK sales chart, UK dance chart, UK albums streaming chart, Billboard chart etc. etc. will result in the wrong answer for you.
3. You can PM me the answers until Sunday, May 27th, 10AM

The scoring
1. For every right answer you get as many points as many people gave that same answer, including yours. However, if you give a unique correct answer, you get the big fat zero, i.e. pointless, which gives you some extra advantage.
2. And as usually, for every wrong answer you are fined with the points equal to the number of this round's participants.

Questions.
1. Name a female solo artist that has released 12 or more singles that have reached the top 40 but has never achieved a number 1 hit?
* Features will count in totals, charity and novelty singles will not.

2. Name a top 40 Madonna single where Madonna did not receive a writing credit?

3. Name a top 40 single by a solo spice girl?
* Not including charity or novelty singles

4. Name a single by a solo artist that stayed in the same position for three consecutive weeks outside of the top 10 (10-75)?

5. Name a top 20 single where Nicki Minaj appears as a feature?

6. Name a song by a solo female artist that is a cover of a male solo artist, which out peaked the original in the charts? Top 75 only

7. Name a single by a girl group which spent four or more weeks in the top 10, but did not reach number 1?

8. Name a top 5 single that was released after 1990 that includes the word ‘world’ in the songs title !

9. Name a single that spent more than 20 weeks in the top 75 but never ever peaked within the top 30 during its entire chart run?

10. Name a single that has been re-released by the same artist whilst still alive, both times the single must have reached the top 40?

11. Name a song that has made the top 10 at least 3 times by 3 different artists?
* Samples will not count – has to be a ‘cover’.

12. Name a number one single that features production from Timbaland?

Does this mean he has to have an artist credit, or is it okay if he only has a production credit?

Regarding question #4:

4. Name a single by a solo artist that stayed in the same position for three consecutive weeks outside of the top 10 (10-75)?

Should it be [12-12-12-12] or [12-12-12] is enough? kink.gif

I’d go for [12-12-12-12-12] just to be safe

Three consecutive weeks 12,12,12 meets the criteria

It does not have to be the peak position

I can't find any correct answer for #9 so far, and with the rest I'm done! Hopefully I'll find something today, as I'm flying on vacations tomorrow.

For #8, does the song have to have the word 'world' in the title, or just the lyrics?

The second time someone's nicked one of my questions, at least this time it's for a Pointless instead of another FF tongue.gif

I'm disappointed at the lack of loophole acceptance in these quizzes, that's what makes it for me!

I have edited question 9 to make it fair for all members.

For those that have submitted answers I will let you resubmit for this question only.
