Encore Question of October 9, 1999.
Played at The Frog & Firkin in North York.
Answers:
Tonight I have a small lead that I gained in the Triviaoke round. I was playing with Richard BERGIE but was also using Jeff's LEAFAN board as he'd stop playing an hour earlier.
My game so far had gone like this: TuneUp....4500/5000....3rd/17 in 7 way tie...OLE JR and JARVIS win round with 5000. OnBeat...8750/14000...4th/17...KELLY wins round, VIKING and MOLSON are also ahead. JukeBox...14673/20000...3rd?/17...I win round, KELLY holds lead with 148xx. Triviaoke...22142/28000...1st/17...LEAFAN wins round.
Now for Encore. This question could be about anything.
Question:...McFadden and Whitehead are best known in the music industry as ___________.
I don't know this but have myself in a mindset that the answer must be 1 or 4 because of a pattern that the Encore question has been taking. I buy Billboard every second week and am thinking of a columnist as time ticks by. The columnist that wears the bowtie but isn't that Tim White? I can't think of anyone else so press in 4 anyway. The only answer I was pretty sure I could rule out was Madonna's producers.
Correct Answer:....3. Songwriting Team
[NTN extra fact:...Their made their mark as songwriters for many Philadelphia soul artists.]
I'm wrong and finish with 11071 points. That's 6066th in North America. The bar is 770th as almost everyone wiped out on that question. I earn 1500+ Players Plus points for mine and the LEAFAN board. PHREDD from The Regulars group won as they probably split their answers.
