    To get the bonus you need two top scorers and another answer that's neither third or last.

    I think that's a mistake on Necro's part. Looking at the answers, you should have 31 points.

    Plus your bonus of 26 gives 75

    You had sane answers as me. 75 is correct

    26 for guitar
    19 for drums
    4 for flute
    26 bonus


  • Moderators, Recreation & Hobbies Moderators Posts: 16,287 Mod ✭✭✭✭quickbeam


    Not that difficult, and I'm drunk.

    If you answer is 1+2+3, then your score is 1+2+3-1
    If your answer is 1+2+x where x is 3>x<1 then your score is 1+2+x+1
    If your answer is 1+2+ace then your score is 1+2+ace

    Simps! :D
