NTN Encore Question of January 20th, 2007.
Played at Joe Mercury's in Toronto Ontario.
Answers:
Tonight I'm playing with two boards as ROCKET, and LITBOX with Rob COSMO/PLBAAB and Sean METLCA,. Phil arrived in the Jukebox round and took over his PLBAAB board.
My game so far had gone like this: TuneUp...ROCKET...4000/5000...3rd/11...Rob as COSMO/PLBAAB win round. ..........LITBOX...4000/5000...3rd/11. I miss both the true/false questions. I thought they were only partially true. OnBeat...ROCKET...11000/14000...3rd/11...our five boards win round although we miss different questions. ..........LITBOX...11000/14000...3rd/11. 7 right and 2 wrong was OK as the two I miss I hadn't read anything about. JukeBox...ROCKET...16456/20000...3rd/11...HEVY D wins round. ...........LITBOX...16442/20000...4th/11. Rob is in the lead but his COSMO board is fading. Would he be able to finish the game? He was called out two answers that I wouldn't have gotten. Triviaoke...ROCKET...22035/28000...2nd/11...COSMO wins round. .........LITBOX...21992/28000...3rd/11. I take one -250 and one that I sat on too long before changing for about 150.

I was glad that I made 20000 points after the first two rounds as it looked doubtful. Now the Encore answers come up. Rappers and rap groups. This could be tough.
Encore Question:...In 1989 the FBI issued bulletin warnings to the nation's police departments regarding:

I'm wondering where Public Enemy and Ice T with his song "Cop Killer" [actually under his group Body Count] were in the answers. With these choices? Sean has already said NWA. Yep I agree with that. Grandmaster Flash was out of the limelight by 1989. Tribe I was thinking wrongly they were more like Tony! Toni! Tone! Run DMC were never in trouble and Ol' Dirty Bastard wouldn't have legal problems until the next decade.
Correct Answer:....4. N.W.A.
[NTN Extra Fact:...Law enforcement agencies didn't appreciate the group's anti-cop rhetoric.]
I'm right and stay in 2nd as ROCKET with 33052. I finish 17th overall in all North America. The bar is 7th in North America with a 32589 average.
I earn 3000+ points for making this week's standard of 20000 points. Rob has enough battery power to win the game with 34440 points.
