June 1, 20205 yr Interestingly J��hq has only dropped 2 points in the whole first half (in the first round - then max scores all the way!) They're obviously in tune with the Buzzjack way of thinking :music: (J��hq...what is the emoticon in your name?)
June 1, 20205 yr I hope J��hq trips so I can claim first place. :kink: *cue bad karma and me screwing myself over*
June 1, 20205 yr Congrats to J��hq..........Maybe check your own scores too, in case I've messed up! Oh I wouldn't bother, I fully trust you ;) It's a fish emoji in my name btw, from a recent event in The Lounge, should probably change it out now :heehee: I hope J��hq trips so I can claim first place. :kink: *cue bad karma and me screwing myself over* I think I probably will, the Christina Aguilera question is the only one in the second half that I have total confidence in (and as I say that I now worry that everyone will have gone for that feature instead :drama:). Reasonably confident on #19 too after seeing how a couple of other questions have gone already
June 1, 20205 yr I think I probably will, the Christina Aguilera question is the only one in the second half that I have total confidence in (and as I say that I now worry that everyone will have gone for that feature instead :drama:). Reasonably confident on #19 too after seeing how a couple of other questions have gone already Oh God that Christina question could be a disaster for me! :lol: At the time I thought I chose smartly but now there are a few of her other songs that might be more obvious. :drama:
June 1, 20205 yr Author Can't say I'm delighted with my score of 95 points so far, but that is correct. I did a quick check on each question that the number of points for each answer + number of different answers = 34 (total number of players), and these came up as scoring 1 point too many: so I think if you deduct 1 point from each of them (sorry!) in Stonedragon's scores that should be right. Edited those posts thanks for helping out!
June 1, 20205 yr A few points were missed, it only affects Mack's & Andrew's points so they gain a little: 1 J��hq = 152 2 Scene = 144 3 West = 142 4 M4NGO = 141 5 girlsaloudjunkie = 138 = n4yr = 138 7 LewisGT = 134 8 Bjork = 129 9 dan-G = 128 10 PeteFromLeeds = 127 11 StoneDragon = 123 12 XhannahlongX = 122 13 Bre = 119 14 Riser = 115 15 Dobbo = 113 16 Mack = 109 = Vibe = 109 18 TheHitParade = 103 19 Andrew = 98 = dj_tim_e = 98 21 Jade = 95 = jimwatts = 95 23 chrisssmith276 = 94 = paulgilb = 94 25 Dan17F1 = 93 26 King Rollo = 92 27 xajnipi = 82 28 Spiceboy = 80 29 awardinary = 79 30 Sarah = 73 31 MrAndrewMan = 70 32 mick745 = 69 33 Musicismypassion = 50 34 Viper = 30 Good luck with part two everyone :)

Dj_tim_e PivWY9wn5ps Here, you were looking for a UK top ten single by the King of Pop what didn't go all the way to #1 but charted top ten. Man In The Mirror was the most popular answer here; a UK #2 (beaten to the top spot by Cascada of all people!) after his shocking death in 2009.
June 1, 20205 yr Q11 did you get an answer for Spiceboy; Q12 Beat It should score 1 point. Everything else checks out with those 2.
June 1, 20205 yr Author 13. Name a male artist who’s had two (or more) uk #1 singles in a chart year (will accept answers what are #1s where artist is a feature) TOP ANSWER: Ed Sheeran; dj_tim_e, chrisssmith276, andrew, girlsaloudjunkie, Viper*, J🐠hq, Vibe, M4NGO, jimwatts, Bjork, West, Scene, King Rollo, Riser, dan-G, Dobbo, LewisGT, Dan17F1, Bre, TheHitParade, Jade, Sarah, MrAndrewMan, (22 POINTS) (2014, Sing & Thinking Out Loud) (2017, Shape Of You & Perfect, (2019, I Don't Care, Beautiful People, Take Me To London) Drake; n4yr, PeteFromLeeds, XhannahlongX, StoneDragon, (3 POINTS) (2018, Gods Plan, Nice For What, In My Feelings) Justin Bieber paulgilb (2015, What Do You Mean, Sorry, Love Yourself) (2017, I'm The One, Despacito) Sam Smith xajnipi (2014, Money On My Mind, Stay With Me) Michael Jackson; spiceboy, (1995; Earth Song, You Are Not Alone) Robbie Williams; musicismypassion, ( 2001 Somethin Stupid, Eternity) Calvin Harris; Mack, (2014; Summer, Blame) (2018 One Kiss, Promises) Elvis Presley; mick745, (1959; A Fool Such as I, One Night) (1961; Little Sister / His Latest Flame, Surrender, Wooden Heart, Are You Lonesome Tonight) (1962; Return to Sender; She's Not You, Good Luck Charm, Rock A Hula Baby) (2005 (re) Jailhouse Rock, One Night / I Got Stung, It's Now or Never) (incorrect) lewis capaldi; awardinary (2 #1s but separate years) Ed Sheeran claims top answer here for any male whos had more than one UK #1 in a chart year!

June 1, 20205 yr Not people putting Lewis Capaldi when Adele was fresh on my mind from the BRITS question :(
June 1, 20205 yr Author 14. Name a studio album with a #1 debut in the uk but what just one week inside the uk top ten. TOP ANSWER: Christina Aguilera Bionic; paulgilb, xajnipi, andrew, spiceboy, Mack ,musicismypassion, Viper*, Vibe, jimwatts, West, mick745¸ Scene, Riser, dan-G, Dobbo, LewisGT, Bre, TheHitParade, (17 POINTS) (1-29) 5 Seconds of Summer calm; chrisssmith276, girlsaloudjunkie, J🐠hq, M4NGO, Bjork, King Rollo, PeteFromLeeds, Dan17F1, XhannahlongX, StoneDragon, Jade, MrAndrewMan, (11 POINTS) (1-17) Marina & the Diamonds; Electra Heart dj_tim_e, n4yr (1 POINT) (1-13) PJ Harvey; The Hope six Demolition Project; awardinary (1-23) Heartbreak Weather Niall Horan; Sarah, (1-12) Here, we were looking for an album that had a big drop after debuting at #1 and with not much of a surprise Bionic by Christina Aguilera (the underrated and underappreciated masterpiece) which is due to turn 10 next week tops the poll! The album fell 1-29 at the time breaking a record for the largest drop in chart history. The next top answer is a very recent album by 5 Seconds of Summer which fell to #17 following it's very narrow #1 debut. I'm guessing this one is stuck in peoples minds as it famously beat Dua's Future Nostalgia in week one causing the forum to have a meltdown until Dua climbed to the top spot the following week. 9 weeks later and Dua would spend 4 weeks at number one at present never drop out the top 4 where as CALM is now out the top 100.

June 1, 20205 yr Author Q11 did you get an answer for Spiceboy; Q12 Beat It should score 1 point. Everything else checks out with those 2. for Q11 Spiceboy said 21 by Adele ^_^

Lose Yourself (which in my humble opinion is his absolute best) storms ahead here with 18 points. I had no idea he actually won an Academy Award for this track! Yhyp-_hX2s
June 1, 20205 yr Oops, it's gone downhill like I feared :D The MJ question was a toss up between "Man in the Mirror" for being the big song when he died and "Thriller" for being his most iconic song in general, unfortunately I sided with the wrong one. I did think of Christina but hoped recency would sway it for 5SOS. Not people putting Lewis Capaldi when Adele was fresh on my mind from the BRITS question :( If Adele was going to be beaten by anyone I was worried about Ed Sheeran :( I don't pay enough attention to the charts these days so I didn't even realise that it was something that Lewis had achieved :lol:
