I have to admit I quit as soon as I made the Hall Of Fame.

    Well gee, Kim, thanks for giving me yet another time waster.

    Just when you think you've got it all figured out, someone changes the rules.

    Yep. Couldn't quite make the hall of fame. But I enjoyed the game. My first 10/10 was early 60s of all things. Not my strongest category.

    What's it take to make the Hall of Fame? I played about a half-dozen times. Best score was 9, worst was 6.

      As far as I can tell you've got to get 20 right in a row. I got 10 and then got the next one wrong which ended the Hall of Fame challenge. Damn.

        Oh, I'll probably never make the Hall of Fame then.

        This is a sad day indeed. I wanted to have "He was in the Music Hall of Fame" etched on my tombstone.

    I got 9 out of 10 without having heard of any of the songs in the snippets before. Not sure if that's a good thing or not.

    Why do garden gnomes smell so bad?
    So that blind people can hate them as well.

    Getting 20 makes the Hall Of Fame.
    I tried it on the default setting and couldn't do it. Switched to Pop Hiits late 60s and made it to 46.

    I first played it with the "None Of The Above Option" be after getting frustrated I removed it, I think that helped a bit.

    I've gotten 9 out of 10 several times but can't seem to get past that. It would help if they had a hard rock category. That's all I listened to back then.

    Update: I played again after posting the above and got 11 right, but then got tripped on a snippet by the Sylvers. Never heard of them.

    I ahd to admit I got mine in a category I did'nt expect.
    Since Steven did a Kindle book on 60s music trivia I wonder if he will see this and give it a try.
