~It's back!~


It's been gone for 7 months, but now it's time for a new round of Magical Musical Trivia!

Everybody's scores are starting from zero again, and the rules are a little different.


Rules:
  • Download the mp3 here (6MB).
  • There are 21 clips.  Try and guess what games they are from.
  • Send me your guesses in a PM...you can only send 1 PM per day.
  • In each PM, you can only guess once per clip.  If you make a wrong guess, you can try again another day.

Scoring:
  • 100 points for each clip you guess correctly on the first attempt.
  • 50 points for each clip you guess correctly, if you had previously guessed it incorrectly.
  • One of the clips is not from an adventure game.  Tell me which clip is the odd one out for a bonus 200 points.  Tell me where it came from for a bonus 200 points.

Hope this all makes sense!  Your last chance to guess is midnight on Sunday 5th March.

Woo hoo!  [smiley=clap.gif]  [smiley=rockin.gif] [smiley=rockin.gif]   Man, a bunch of these clips are on the tip of my tongue, er, ear, as it were. Hopefully another listening (or two or three or four....) will help.

Yikes. Only a few I can place. Maybe it's because I'm sick and my head's spinning. I'll give it a go later.

It's pretty hard. I already recognize a few, but there are a couple that sound so familiar and I just can't place them.

What a great excuse to listen to some adventure game music!

Oh good!  I was hoping you'd do another one of these, Chris.  I've got to get some sleep, but I'll download it tomorrow to see what you've concocted.

Eva, I'm sorry you're sick and hope you feel better very soon. [img]http://bestsmileys.com/flowers/6.gif[/img]

Oops!  Maybe I made it too difficult this time?  I put in a few tricky ones to make the "odd one out" part harder, but I thought I balanced it out with some easy ones.  Of course, I've got the answers in front of me


BTW, these are not all new games.  I've used 11 of them before (with different music tracks though).

I love your music puzzles, Chris, but you always manage to stick one in there that makes me want to poke out my eardrums by the end of the week.  Number 6 takes the prize this time. [img]http://bestsmileys.com/listening/2.gif[/img]  However, you did pick some great selections.  Several I want to find just so I can listen to the whole piece.

 There's not just an awful-sounding song every week!  There's also to be a cheesy 80s pop song and some nondescript orchestra music (was it Syberia or The Longest Journey?)


I love putting in songs, and I managed to find 7 songs this week.  I think I've run out now, though :'(

It's terible this time, both no. 10, 19 and 20 are of the nondesrcipt type... they all sound the same.

And nobody's guessed 10, 19 or 20 yet...
 And there's a few others that nobody's guessed.

Nobody has worked out which one is the "odd one out" yet.

I have an idea on the odd one, Chris, but i'm not going to commit myself yet.  I am finding many of these difficult to retain, so I'm just letting the songs loop in iTunes while I do other things.  Eventually, I hope to learn some of them well enough to recognize elsewhere.

They always warned me that if I went playing around on the internet without protection, I'd end up with some sort of virus... :'(

Is the odd one out another game, just not an adventure? Or is that secret information?

Yes, it's from another game (that narrows it down... :
)

And it's not an adventure or actionish-adventure game (happy now, Andromus?
)



Any more information...well, I could tell you, but then I'd have to kill you
