Would someone care to share the method of using the internet? I feel like the very long amount of time it took me to get We R Who We R could have been better spent :D

I was certain the theme was that they all first charted in November :o All the ones I guessed correctly did, and I almost certainly wouldn't have gotten Lucky Star if I hadn't looked up which Basement Jaxx singles charted in November - quite some co-incidence!

Didn't get 'Shotgun', 'A Little Time' or 'We R Who We R'! 17/20 not bad even though so many others did better oops.

Viva La Vida and Drivers License were the two that I didn't get, both because I had already found different words in them and become stuck on the fact that they must be part of the answer. :lol:

That is a spooky coincidence! Unfortunately The Script song charted in July and Green day in March :P

Since we knew they were all UK #1s I used those lists to narrow down the possibilities. Hope that doesn't count as cheating.

We R Who We R was the hardest one for me!

Well done to Riser and StoneDragon, a sterling effort! I threw in the bonus questions as a tie breaker and I'm glad I did - it's those bonus points that clinched it for our two winners :)

 

Thanks again to all those who took part, I wanted to try something a little different so I hope you enjoyed the format. Sorry the results have been a bit rushed.

 

Jimwatts' song title anagrams is now available to take part in, so give that a go if you haven't already!

I tried, admittedly not hard enough! ;)

Well I didn't come last at least! Thanks Mango for a fun and challenging round ^_^

Thank you for hosting Mango, much appreciated ^_^

10/10 songs, the connection correct, 17/20 for fill in the blanks and still not good enough for top 5 - this week was brutal :lol:

 

Congrats to our joint winners Jordan and StoneDragon :cheer: and a huge thank you to Mango for hosting ^_^

First half disaster and seems like most people di very well 2nd half so full marks there didn't help me much!

 

Definitely my worst chart quiz season!!

 

Thanks for hosting Mango and congrats to winners :D

I didn't end up entering because I got so frustrated by a number of songs. :lol: Glad to have the answers to settle my mind finally *_*

 

Thanks for hosting Mango (I'll try to enter the next one)!

 

 

I spent so long looking at the Shotgun one unable to see anything except Sheeran :lol: thanks Mango, this was a nice challenge!

Thanks Mango for hosting and some fun ideas for a quiz. Well done to the other top fivers, especially Jordan and SD for the win!

Good luck with the anagrams to anyone having a go!!

I *think* this is my first ever quiz win in the chart forum - despite always entering them :o. Really excited about that, and congrats to StoneDragon too!

 

It was very challenging but a fun challenge. Thanks Mango for hosting!

Thanks very much Mangø for this! Was good fun and pleased with 3rd.

The knowledge on this forum is formidable - I did terribly on the first half, and now having seen the songs and the connections, there's still barely anything I'm kicking myself for not getting. A lot of you just have amazing knowledge!

 

Thank you for hosting Mango!

Thanks for hosting, Mangø!
