Thanks for running this. Was very enjoyable and I'll take a Man unitedesque mid table mediocrity finish for my first attempt

Thanks for playing everyone, that was great

I have a similar style picture quiz almost ready to go with TV Shows, I'll throw it up in the next few days. If you enjoy these games the best thing to do is follow this thread - https://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2057987935 - where new ones are linked when they're ready. Necro currently has a Nicolas Cage SHEEP running because... well, why not?

Good fun all!

Thanks EN for an incredibly well run game and congrats LeVar.

Definitely playing a bit more tactically, rather than just obscure, next time.

My heart was pounding so hard in my chest there towards the end... Congrats to Homer and Zaph for putting up such a solid fight - I'm actually gutted for both of you, as happy as I am to be crowned the champion. Good game lads!

And EN, that was such a fun game, the reveal was amazing, thanks so much for running it.

Thanks EN, great job. Well done ASLB.

I'm not sure what tactic to adopt in this game to be honest. It seems to be just about luck. Please do another music one someday so I can get a better score!

My tactic for some of them was to just go for the album I liked the best even if they were a tad obvious, and for others I went for artists that I thought others might not be too familiar with or covers that may have long been forgotten, which had mixed results. It's very hard to have a set strategy though I think, and its best to just play it by ear (pun intended) in each round.

Damn. Really didn't think Yeah Yeah Yeah's would sheep. Oh well, congrats on the well-deserved win ASLB, and also to quickbeam on the even better-deserved spoon.

Many thanks EN for the splendid reveal.
