Encore Question of October 16, 1999.
Played at The Frog & Firkin in North York Ontario.
Answers:
Tonight I'm well back in 11th place and am just glad of my position as my board had conked out in the OnBeat round and I took over Richard's second board BEERME but eventually get my original board working again. I had plenty of warning during earlier games. My game so far had gone like this:
TuneUp....4500/5000...5th/15...ENIGMA, JARVIS, OLE JR, and BERGIE win with a perfect round. OnBeat...8250/14000...14th/16...board troubles. JukeBox...12466/20000...13th/16...ENIGMA wins round. Triviaoke...19054/28000...11th/16...ALKIE wins round.
I recognize two Marvin Gaye songs in the Encore answers.
Question:...Find the Al Green album among these Marvin Gaye recordings.
[NTN extra fact:...After recording this album, Green returned to gospel music for a considerable period.]
I don't know this but am looking for a religious theme as I know Al Green became a minister. I choose 1 and put the other board on 4 (not sure about this as I'm typing this up in March 2000 but I know I was still fixated on the disproportional frequency of 1 and 4 answers).
Correct Answer:...1 Truth And Time
I'm right and finish 6th with 28581 points. I earn 3000+ Players Plus points for meeting this week's 19000 standard. I'm 513th in North America. The bar finishes in 10th in North America with a 30604 average. KELLY wins.
Here's how the rest of the bar did: Player preEncore Final Rank ALKIE 22285 x 11143 6301 KELLY 21885 32827 64 ENIGMA 21816 x 10908 6379 MOLSON 21227 x 10613 6477 VIKING 21123 31685 85 MRFROG 21058 x 10529 6505 JARVIS 20916 x 10458 6528 OLE JR 21217 30325 111 WOTUS 19439 29159 321 BERGIE 19350 29025 365 ROCKET 19054 28581 513 BEERME 18869 x 9435 6868 CRASH 17541 x 8771 7088 KAV 17271 x 8635 7133 RIBS 6376 x 3188 8941 JSBACH 2462 x 1231 9591
