Carl Posted October 18, 2006 Report Share Posted October 18, 2006 OK, Lyrical Pursuit is online as well. Give it a spin and see if it's ready for prime time. Like Song Fallacies, we'll link it from Songfacts when we dig it: Lyrical Pursuit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Posted October 19, 2006 Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 This would likely be difficult to format ( and perhaps is unnecessary ) , but it would be nice if we could choose categories of music to try . There isn't even a clue or hint for some groups/ genres one's never listened to . However , if the point is to encourage a well-rounded listener , it certainly offers that .

invisible_r Posted October 19, 2006 Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 I found the comments slightly odd. the comment was "nastier" when I got 13 than when I got 10. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Posted October 19, 2006 Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 Perhaps at 10 you're considered pitiful and hopeless , whereas at 13 , they are trying to ' shame ' and encourage you into doing better by searching through the Songfacts ... like the army !

invisible_r Posted October 19, 2006 Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 i guess i should considering that everyone else is reporting such high scores Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Posted October 19, 2006 Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 Aww ( feeling bad , now ) , try it again : it really comes down to getting songs that you are familiar with or not . A high score does not a music expert make . - Yoda Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edna Posted October 19, 2006 Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 I had 18 points. I am disapointed... I expected a better score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blind-fitter Posted October 19, 2006 Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 Quite understandably, it was a very Americo-centric selection; quite alot of featured artists may be well-known in the States but have probably never been played on the radio over here in the UK. That's my explanation for only scoring 13, anyway.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Levis Posted October 19, 2006 Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 11-16... I like the 11... it means "I know just enough to be dangerous" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edna Posted October 19, 2006 Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 I just had this question: The Boxer by Simon And Garfunkel  And a rock feels no pain. And a island never cries. Just the twinkling of the rain. Adonis makes his stand. "The Boxer"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carl Posted October 19, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 19, 2006 Sounds like me mixed up our Simon and our Garfunkel. I'll get that one fixed. The suggestion to add genres is a good one, but we'll need more questions. Since we now have a good system for users to add questions, it could grow pretty fast. There are about 1300 currently. Is sounds like everything is functioning, so we might add links from Songfacts this weekend. Thanks for the testing, and please post any further comments.

katie_sane Posted October 20, 2006 Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 I got 20, but that was most definitely a fluke. I guessed at half, must be my lucky night! I should go buy a lottery ticket..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Seeker Posted October 20, 2006 Report Share Posted October 20, 2006 I guessed the first five or something right too although I had no clue, then I thought "hey, I'm guessing everything right" and of course from then on I got almost everything wrong.

Carl Posted October 26, 2006 Author Report Share Posted October 26, 2006 That pesky database error is due for correction soon. I think we're going to make it so the first question appears on the Pursuit home page, so you can immediately play - same with Fallacies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edna Posted October 26, 2006 Report Share Posted October 26, 2006 I love the two games... I play whenever I can but I don´t post it cause I´m geting a lower score lately... It´s good to have some trivia in Songfacts... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
