Kenzinger is Wolfking

[LithoJazzoSphere]

It might be lonestar then.

Takayoshi could be TAC.

So I have 8 intangible points to go with my 6.5 for a 14.5 this round.


Sending for Round 6!

Using a number as a song is pretty cheap.  There should be a penalty imposed

[LithoJazzoSphere]

If this flops on quality and my lead cushion vaporizes it might be time for some monkey business.

I thought jingle was going to fill in punctuation and such.  Since numbers aren't guessed, I would think that those come in pre-filled. 

[TAC]

It's Lonestar we're talking about. Chad will not penalize him for anything. 


But yes...numbers as song titles should be illegal, or we're gonna have a math round next round.

[LithoJazzoSphere]

We definitely need a ruling on that, because if it's allowed, boy do I have some ideas...

I do love that we solved this in just slightly over 2 hours all while Ruslan snoozed.   

[Dr. DTVT]

I was at work and was pretty useless as well.

[lonestar]

I mean..nowhere did it say songs with numbers weren't allowed...

[TAC]

From now on, we should be able to guess a letter AND a number then.

[lonestar]

Nowhere did it say you couldn't guess numbers either. No matter, the seal is broken, it's only genius once.

[LithoJazzoSphere]

I thought it was kind of against the spirit of the rules.

P.P.S. In Hangman, symbols/punctuation need not be guessed - they will be auto-filled.

The idea being that we don't typically guess anything but letters in hangman.  Otherwise there are bands/songs made up of special characters and ones unique to particular languages and such.  If those are all fair game, well, it changes the game.

I just go by Rich's spreadsheet - which does not autofill numbers, just punctuation.  I'll give you my response when RJ asked about submitting it:



afaic, any points negated are offset by employing my Roulette motto.  As RJ said, it is only genius once.  Ya'll are just jealous deep down that no one thought about it over the course of the first 4 rounds.

Ooooh I have an idea that is kinda spicey for you Timbo ... How about we play "Let's Make A Deal"!!!

Behind Door #1, you play the round out normally.
Behind Door #2, you take the guaranteed 6.5 right now before I even listen to your song.
Behind Door #3, take a stack rank score instead of your absolute rating out of 10. 

You gotta ask yourself one question ... "Do I feel lucky?"

From now on, we should be able to guess a letter AND a number then.

Oh, so NOW you want a change to the rules!

[jingle.boy]

It's Lonestar we're talking about. Chad will not penalize him for anything. 

Why would I penalize him when he pre-cleared it by asking a question ahead of time.  That's what you get for not being allowed to ask questions! 

But yes...numbers as song titles should be illegal, or we're gonna have a math round next round.

By all means, knock yourselves out.
