Heretic_Cata's Second PM-Based "Name that Tune" - CLOSED

Hi :wavey:

Welcome to my PM-based contest. :)

First of all, for the noobs out there: you PM someone by clicking on their Username and selecting "Send a private message to ..."

THE ALMIGHTY RULE :
Don't post any sort of answers or hints to the questions in the thread.

Stuff you should know about the competition:
1. Like you saw in my last quiz, i have no idea if a song is easy or hard to identify (for you). So there will be a lot more medium dificulty samples because i dunno. However the points to a lot of songs will change. To most songs you'll get more points if you answer before i post aditional samples and stuff. I will also post more new samples than usual. Oh, and there's 2 rounds and bonus points and stuff.
I am also too lazy to write the stuff i wrote in the other thread so whatever.

This quiz might be harder than my last one, but at least it has more songs per round.

I barely finished the quiz yesterday and went to sleep soon after. I was going to send you today. Actually, i'll start sending mass PMs right now to former participants.
Oh, and the quiz actually is harder. :D

And btw, thx for reminding me about the quiz, i dont think i would've made it if it wasnt for you. :thanx:

OK, have submitted a first attempt.

My main aim is to get more than half of Niklas' total, which I think I failed to do last quiz, even though I came 2nd :lol:

Oh boy oh boy oh boy! :bounce:

Ok, let me start off by saying :thumbsup: to HC, I think you've struck a good balance between easy and hard songs. And a bunch of excruciatingly agonizingly familiar songs that I just should know. You know the drill...

Second let me say that I won't be half as competitive this time around since I have far less time to spend on searching. Doesn't mean I won't give a good fight though. ;)

And last, I would like to motion for the removal of songs 204 and 215 from the quiz due to a GM mistake... :mischief:

First volley will be fired in a short while. :)

And last, I would like to motion for the removal of songs 204 and 215 from the quiz due to a GM mistake... :mischief:

Ssh! I know those ones.

Ozbenno is curently in the lead with 34points
Niklas is second with 29p
StickCiv has 12
Lightfang has ... very few points.

StickCiv is the only one who recognized a hard song among you guys. He got 303 right on.

5 points behind from the beginning eh? It'll be tough to catch up then, but I won't give up without a fight. :ninja:

I suck at all these Name That Tune quizzes, and as a result you guys all get abysmal results when I make my Name That Tune quizzes. It's like revenge.

I send it. :(

StickCiv is the only one who recognized a hard song among you guys.

Now wait a minute! I recognised 2-3 of them, I've just got no idea what they are called (yet :mischief).

I sent my rather newbish effort.

my replies were sent :)

I did better on this one than on your first one :p

How much time do we have ?
I just clicked on a random link and happened to know it. :)
So now I'm downloading all the stuff and will have a go tomorrow night.

Going by the first round, you'll likely have a few weeks.

Yea - this will last a little longer than last time ... dunno how long tho - might be a month. Btw, new samples next weekend.

Anyway, cant rate the new answers now, but from a quick lookie i see 302 was ID-ed by phil, which to my surprise didnt say anything about 305 which he HAS SEEN and is probably one of the (???) that he likes most. Of course me not seeing it is the reason why i've no idea how common it was.
Catharsis got 301(:goodjob:) and 303 right.

There we go:

Ozbenno and Catharsis are curently in the lead with 34points
Niklas is in a close second with 33p
Philippe is in 3rd place with 28p
JapanRocks12 has 24
StickCiv has 12
Lightfang has ... very few points.

sent my first submission:
only managed to id some easy songs for now, though I'm sure I'll be able to 208 with some time.

and if I don't lose the last scraps of my sanity first, I should be able to ID 211 and 212...and I have a distinct feeling that I should know 307 :hmm:

The easy ones seem all good.

And lets put it this way - if you cant ID 307 then no one will. :D

damn, what's that supposed to mean? Now I feel put under pressure :sad:

btw, you wouldn't by chance have archived my pm-quiz thread, would you? I just realized it's been deleted :cry:

No it's not deleted, it still shows up if you search for it: http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=240791

202 was only known by catharsis
203 only by japanrocks12
216 only by niklas

201 205 210 boggle everyone

Wait, could you clarify: is internet searching allowed? I assumed it was. If not, then you should probably take about 10 points off my score.

Yes - it allowed, mostly because you cant really search for much unless you actually know something about the song ... like you remember lyrics or smthing like that.

So it's kinda allowed ... kinda ;).

No it's not deleted, it still shows up if you search for it: http://forums.civfanatics.com/showthread.php?t=240791

ah, there it is :) Thank you :hatsoff:

Heh, I'm really surprised I'm the only one to id 216, I thought that was one of the easiest. But I'm perhaps even more surprised that someone other than me knew 213. :wow: :goodjob:

Grr, 208 is driving me absolutely nuts. I can sing most of it, but that doesn't help much... :mad:

Heh, I'm really surprised I'm the only one to id 216, I thought that was one of the easiest. But I'm perhaps even more surprised that someone other than me knew 213. :wow: :goodjob:
Japanrocks and a friend of mine also knew 213. And im expecting much more to know it. At least the "where".
Yea i thought 216 was more known - i hear it on the radio a lot and i dont even listen to the radio. :crazyeye:

216 is one I recognize and just have to try and place it, ie its driving me nuts!!!!!

104 - 11 people

From medium:
212 - 8 people which was very surprising for me since i thought it was obscure ...
214 - 6 people again shocking
As opposed to 205 and 216 which i thought were VERY known ...

From hard:
303 - 3 people

I will put new samples to some songs probably saturday. Once i do that, those that responded before the new samples will get (2 maybe) bonus points, so it'd be a good idea to answer before.

As opposed to 205 and 216 which i thought were VERY known ...

I don't think the problem is that we just can't pin the bloody name to it ;)

I'll post the new samples tonight. :) EDIT: or tomorrow morning :D

The scores will change a lot after i do that because those that responded before them will get 2 bonus points per song. However i could not make good or easier new samples to some unID-ed songs, so they'll remain with just 1 sample but they will be worth 6p or 8p anyway.

Oh and i'm almost done with making the second round. I think i'll let both rounds run parallel. The only drawback to this is, because Ciceronian's quiz seems to be neverending and therefore mine too ... PM space is not nearly enough for all 3 "quizes". And because i cant erase the ReligionQuiz entries - i'll have to erase most of your PMs - that means i will no longer have proof of what you said and what you didnt say. You will have to trust my excell file and hope i wont make any mistakes (which i haven't, so far) or count the points yourselves as soon as you get a response.
If anyone has a problem with this then rant and maybe i wont let the rounds run on the same time.
And if both rounds will go parallel that means they will not end too soon - earliest, at the begining of may.

So what do you think ?

You can delete my religion quiz answers as I didn't do that well.

Religion quiz? Ciceronian's quiz? Where can I find those? :hmm:

Why not save all PMs you get in word files, one for each participant? Not that I care much, I always keep track of my own answers. ;)

The Religion Quiz, and Ciceronian's History Quiz, are both to be found in the World History forum.

On a related note, come back to the Science/Technology quiz! The biologists are taking over!

New samples are up so the rankings got shuffled around to this:

Ozbenno is first - 52p
Niklas is second with 44p
Catharsis is third - 40p
azzaman333 - 33p
Philippe - 31p
JapanRocks12 - 30p
KaeptnOvi is tied with Kan at 26p
StickCiv - 14p
Lightfang has ... very few points yet he just got 1point and is now ahead of:
Silvara Thirrol that has what LF had before :(

And some friends of mine:
John has 46p
Malevon has 34p
Petrica has 26p

Nice. Could we have an archive with all the new samples to download? :)

Done

And almost done with the second round

Holy fishworks. I'm in 4th. :eek:

For unknown reasons box is not letting me upload the archives of the samples for round2. (even tho they are less than 10MB and even tho it says file succesfully uploaded after)

I will put the links to each file up tho (58 links ... it's gonna be boring :() - and the archives will get here when they'll get here.

damn, the now samples didn't do anything but further confuse me :run:

And the second round is up.
Good luck :)

Even tho round2 has twice as many songs, they seem to be harder kuz people barely got close to the round1 scores ...

It is indeed much harder. In round 1 there are plenty of songs apart from those I answered that I think I will be able to nail with some thinking. Not so for round 2, I found that really really hard. :undecide:

Good thing I did so bad on the first round, then :ack:

Well, I know 101, that's for sure!

Well, I know 101, that's for sure!
And so far you're the only one. :( THEY'RE ALL A BUNCH OF NOOBS. It'll probably be upgraded.

The band at 201 was ID-ed by a friend of mine ... especially since it's a VERY known band from that time period. However he exhausted all his tries before he could get the songname right.
205 was only ID-ed by another friend of mine.
210 and 306 are the only ones where no one got nothing.
The surprise came with 304 - which is now ID-ed by 2 people.
307 was ID-ed by 2 friends of mine ... meanwhile KaeptnOvi didnt ID it.

103, 111, 114 are the most ID-ed easy songs - 8 people each


202 was only ID-ed by friends of mine, one of them having nothing to do with trance music whatsoever. I mean common the singer is like the second DJ that pops up in my mind. :crazyeye:

206 a legendary song from a legendary band only by a friend of mine
207 no one - but the hint resulted in some quite good guesses from you

211 only by Ozbenno
214 only by a friend
216 by no one

308 by no one as expected
311 by a friend

The most ID-ed thing in hard songs was the band for 312 - by 3 people.
The most ID-ed song+band for hard were 305 by 2 anime freaks and 309 by other 2 people with good taste in music :) .

I made the new samples for the second round and will upload them in 2-3 days. You should submit before that for more points.

hopefully they will be able to resolve some of those 'aaargh-I-know-this-song'-issues for me :)

It seems i will be posting the new samples once i finish up with my friends. I dont want to deal with too many submisions at once. :) (so i'll probably post them at the end of the week sometime)

/me rubs his chin ....

Not yet :D

If you guys want i could end the first round at some point ... maybe at the end of this week ...

I was expecting for a few more participations tho - Till , Red_Door , MjM at least ... :(

I'm done in the first round. Got everything I'm likely to get. Still have some inklings for round 2.

I'm not really attempting Round 2, but there are a couple in Round 1 that I'd really like to know the answer to (*cough*209*cough*) so ending it would be great.

bumpity bump...

The results will be coming when you least expect it. :mischief:

And i think you would not be expecting it this weekend.

Your Highness, the people demand results

It's one of their best, only topped by The Dark Ride imho.

Hmmm, only one I missed that I should have got was Kiss.

Can you give a points update for Round 2?

Umm ... not quite. :blush:

Dont worry it'll be a looong time before round2 ends. And i will be expecting all of you's new submissions once i post the new samples in july. I will also not rate any submissions untill then...

:wallbash: War of the Worlds! Every Christmas they try to sell you that CD... on the telly, non-stop Jeff Wayne, that song playing in every other advert... how bothersome. And I've a feeling I should've got the Mike Oldfield song, too.

Ah well. Great job on the first part of the quiz, Heretic! Well done Ozbenno!

Thanks :)
I'll give you points for what you sent me just now before i post the new samples for the second round.

Now, to wait till July :D

what about the second round?

and yes, I'm pretty scared - no one guessed Mike Oldfield. So. Easy.

It seems that this is getting delayed again ... :D

Now that i think about it - i'll probably cancel the second round soon.

You'll get the answers to the questions tho ... unlike in some quizes.

answers :bounce:

And the answers are up. :)

You're gona have to youtube them this time tho.

Could have guessed Muse and Dio >.<

I should have known Mussorgsky, other than that I'm as blank now than I was when I heard the clips. Clearly not my musical selection that. :p

Curse you, Fun Lovin' Criminals! :mad:
