Posted April 15, 20187 yr Following the successful BuzzJack Family Fortunes: Chart Edition (thanks awardinary!) it's... http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-n4q7fOELoVc/TwSa9uAY7pI/AAAAAAAAACM/Rd7fv65RLYw/s1600/Pointless.jpg POINTLESS CHART EDITION EPISODE 1 (GAMES ROUND 2) Hello, it's me, Midgexander Osman here and welcome to Pointless! It's pretty straightforward: try and name the correct answers that you think nobody else has answered. The player who scores the lowest of anybody will win. Example: question - name a Spice Girl. If 51 people enter and 31 people including yourself say Geri Halliwell, and your answer is Geri Halliwell, you score ((31-1)/(51-1)) x 100 = (30/50) x 100 = 60 points. If you are the only person to say Victoria Beckham, you've got a Pointless answer. You don't add any jackpot to the total though ;) if you said Keisha Buchanan, you’d be wrong and would score (51/51) x 100 points. 1. Name any act to have performed on any of the Band Aid versions of "Do They Know It's Christmas?" (Please do not name individuals from bands, unless the individuals appear without the rest of their band) 2. Name an act from the former Soviet Union to have had a UK Top 75 hit single. (If this is a band, at least the majority of members have to be from the former Soviet Union). 3. Name any act to have had a UK number 1 hit album in 2016. (This excludes any album that peaked at number 1 prior to 2016) 4. Name any world capital city to be featured in the title of a UK Top 75 hit. (Countries must be recognised by the UN) 5. Name any act who won a BRIT award in 2018. 6. Name a UK top 10 hit single by The Saturdays. 7. Name a Billboard Hot 100 number 1 single from 2017. (This excludes any single that peaked at number 1 prior to 2017) 8. Name any Sports Relief single. 9. Name a member of Girls Aloud. 10. Name any UK number 1 single since the start of 1990 that spent 4 weeks or less in the UK top 40 singles chart. 11. Name any Eurovision act who haven't represented the UK to have had a UK Top 75 hit single. 12. Name any band starting with "The" to have had a UK top 5 hit in the 2000s. To enter, simply PM me - Midge - your answers by 11pm, Saturday 21st April 2018. Good luck!

April 15, 20187 yr Certainly hope this can go ahead but you may have needed to run this past one of the Lounge moderators first. Either way I’ll get started on thinking of some obscure answers! :D

Either way I’ll get started on thinking of some obscure answers! :D Oh really? Excuse my poor etiquette, it is that I did not know this :P It's okay mods I used to run an entire forum/website; you can trust me :P
April 15, 20187 yr Name an act from the former Soviet Union to have had a UK Top 75 hit single. (If this is a band, at least the majority of members have to be from the former Soviet Union Does this include modern acts say from Ukraine, Russia etc?
April 15, 20187 yr Author Name an act from the former Soviet Union to have had a UK Top 75 hit single. (If this is a band, at least the majority of members have to be from the former Soviet Union Does this include modern acts say from Ukraine, Russia etc? Correct - any act from a country/countries within the former USSR.
April 16, 20187 yr Certainly hope this can go ahead but you may have needed to run this past one of the Lounge moderators first. Either way I’ll get started on thinking of some obscure answers! :D As a Lounge mod, I am fine with this xx The new round of Lounge Quizzes isn't gonna be starting for a few months yet, I'm more than happy for other forums to fill in the gap with quizzes of their own.
April 16, 20187 yr What is the Lounge? Also I've entered! The off-topic / general discussion section of BuzzJack.
April 16, 20187 yr Looks like next week I’ll be late to uni again due to catching up on Sunday night results *.* you guys are killing me :lol:

Ah okay I did get permission then as Bré PM'd me about it prior to me setting questions! Thanks :)
April 16, 20187 yr Author So just to clarify, it is bad to get points in this? Yes, you want the lowest score possible. Have you ever seen Pointless? If not, I urge you to :P
April 16, 20187 yr Yes, you want the lowest score possible. Have you ever seen Pointless? If not, I urge you to :P So basically the family fortunes but you want to guess the answer that no one else has said but is still correct?
April 16, 20187 yr Author So basically the family fortunes but you want to guess the answer that no one else has said but is still correct? Pretty much the opposite of that yes. The fun here though is that others may guess the same 'least likely' answers and they could end up being the higher scorers :lol:
April 16, 20187 yr Author I have received 5 entries so far, thank you. A note regarding the capital city question: you only need to give me the capital city. I have taken the capital city mentioned in your answers if you gave me full song titles. Edited April 16, 20187 yr by Midge
April 16, 20187 yr Author Question 10 is nicked exactly from my Lounge edition of Pointless :P I can guarantee you it wasn't, how disappointing though!
April 16, 20187 yr Author That Soviet Union question is incredbly hard! Just to clarify, this means from any country that was part of the Soviet Union.
