JUST For Fun -- Lyrically Speaking Rules
Posted: Mon Mar 16, 2009 10:22 am
The JFF LS, using all of LB's rejected submittals from the last game, will be posted later today, either on my lunch break if I have time, or MUCH later after I get home 2nite. it will be open until 5 p.m. MT Wednesday because I think Weds. evening will be the first opportunity I have to score it.
Similarly to LB's final game, many of these songs and artists are so obscure that title/artist scores will be very low. Therefore, the winner will almost certainly be determined by who guesses best on who submitted the songs.
Players may use ONE outside resource: LB's final game thread -- NO other threads and no other outside resources, just what's rattling around in your own personal belfry. The plan is to reward those folkses who have been paying attention.
Except for Marley's, who submitted five songs to LB, I'm using all the submitted songs. So Marley and a few others will have three songs; most people will have two, mine included. I will note in the BBs list how many songs for each.
For example:
Marley (3)
Sprots (2)
Scoring will reward knowledge of the songs, skill in figuring out who goes with what, and luck.
First song from one submitter correct: 1 point
Two songs from same submitter correct: 3 points for second song
Three songs from same submitter correct: 4 points for third song
Artists: 1 point each. If you get the song right, you'll probably get the artist, so no bonus. If you miss the song but get the artist, you'll score one point for that song, plus any bonus BB points.
BB: A whopping 10 points each for attaching each correct BB to a song, even if you didn't get the song right.
So someone who gets all three of Marley songs and artists, and knows it was Marley, will score 1 + 3 + 4 + 1 + 1 + 1 + 10 + 10 +10 = 41. If you miss all Marley's songs and artists, but attach his name correctly, your total for his three songs will be 30.
Someone who gets both of my songs and artists right, plus guesses BB correctly, will score 1 + 3 + 1 + 1 + 10 + 10 = 26. If you miss the songs but put me with one of them, your total score for my songs will be 10.
Rock and roll! Have fun!
