Encore Question of May 22nd, 1999.
Played at The Frog & Firkin in North York.
Answers:
I'm playing with BERGIE Richard and WORD Steve. I've been as high as 2nd but have sagged to 10th and last of the players who stayed until the end. I have 18188 points and that's behind PLBAAB of The Regulars who has 22582 and the rest of them who hold the other places of the ten except for LESTAT who is a team of two Oriental guys. They've got six boards for five players and think they've lost at least two to battery failure. I thought The Regulars were playing against themselves or couldn't reach an agreement as the lead swung back and forth.
The game so far had gone like this:
TuneUp....4000/5000....9th/17 in 3 way tie...8 teams share lead with 4500.
OnBeat...9250/14000...9th...PLBAAB 11000 and LESTAT 10500 win round.
JukeBox...14508/20000...3rd/15...BERGIE wins round.
Triviaoke...18188/28000...10th/12...JARVIS wins round.

Question:...A __________ perched on a guitar is the official Woodstock emblem.
Seems easy to me. I've seen the Woodstock logo recently but I forget where. I guess within three seconds and have time to think about Charles Schultz's cartoon character in Peanuts although it is yellow in colour. The others also look like they know it already when I tell them what I think. I suppose a Peace Sign would be a trick choice as that symbol represented the whole 'peace and love' times of that era.
Correct Answer:........1. White Bird
I'm right and pass one person to finish 9th with 27282 points. That's good for 566th in North America. Well that's a little comfort to do well against all players even though that wasn't so good at this bar. I earn 3000 Players Plus points for finishing over the 14000 standard for tonight's game. The bar finishes 8th in North America with a 31242 average. PLBAAB finished 12th on the Top 20 rankings but 45th overall proving there must have been a lot of mega teams in the 11 bars above us.
Here's how our bar did:
Player............preEncore..........Final.........Rank...
PLBAAB...........22582............33873.........45....
JARVIS.............21266............31899.........64....
KELLY...............20915............31373.........69....
LESTAT............20484............22532.......2208....
MOLSON...........19813............29719.........98....
