NTN Encore Question of March 29th, 2008.
Played at The Frog & Firkin in North York, Ontario.
Answers:
Tonight I'm playing with two boards as ROCKET and LITBOX, with Rob COSMO, Sean METLCA, and Phil PLBAAB. There was no disturbance for the Earth Hour celebration which encouraged people to turn off their lights for one hour in Toronto and in other cities around the world. Things were normal. The lights are always dimmed when it gets dark outside.
My game so far had gone like this: TuneUp...ROCKET...5000/5000...1st/8...my two boards, COSMO, METLCA win round with at 5000. ...........LITBOX...5000/5000...1st/8...we don't need any guessing this week. OnBeat...ROCKET...14000/14000...1st/8...my two boards, COSMO, METLCA win round. ..........LITBOX...14000/14000...1st/8...I go 9 for 9 in this round with Rob getting me one question. JukeBox...ROCKET...19996/20000...3rd/8...COSMO and METLCA win round round with a full 6000. ...........LITBOX...19996/20000...3rd/8...Rob gets me one of the questions but the rest were easy. Triviaoke...ROCKET...26693/28000...3rd/9...COSMO wins round. ...........LITBOX...26693/28000...3rd/9...I take one -250 score this round when I miscalculate the round ending and miss the lyrics to 'When Irish Eyes Are Smiling' and we all miss it.

Now the Encore answers come up. It looks like animated movies. I haven't seen any of them but since it's a music game this should be some song from the movie.
Encore Question:...The Oscar winning song "Colors Of The Wind" is from which animated Disney film?

I don't know this but Rob asks if I think it's from Beauty And The Beast. Can't think of anything better. I should have thought that most movies only have one big hit song from them. The title song was sang by Celine Dion. All I can say is it isn't '1' or '5' knowing the songs from Elton John and Phil Collins. I even say it was by Vanessa Williams. Nope times up.
Correct Answer:....4. Pocahontas
[NTN Extra Fact:...Vanessa Williams hit #4 on the Billboard charts with the song in 1995.]
I'm wrong and stay in 3rd place on both my boards at 13347. The bar finishes 2111st in North America. I finish 5602th in North America. I earn only 1500+ points for not making this week's standard of 21000. COSMO wins with 13358 and earns 1st place on this bar's Hall of Fame as all but last week's score when we weren't here have been erased.
(ntn.com moved our bar up to 646th out of 1960 with an average of 13123)
Here's how the rest of the bar did: Player preEncore Final Rank ntn.com rank COSMO 26715 x 13358 5598 3790 METLCA 26701 x 13351 5601 3793 LITBOX 26693 x 13347 5602 3796 ROCKET 26693 x 13347 5602 3796 PLBAAB 24425 x 12213 5975 3969 GOHABS 10973 x 5487 8192 6000 GORDO 10697 x 5349 8237 6071 DREW 2887 x 1443 9524 8440 ACMAN2 1310 x 656 9784 9044 (ntn.com listed 9773 players)
