Post your score!

Q10 answer is TOTALLY wrong!

Oh I took it yesterday! I got 8/10 I believe. Somehow I got 3&4 wrong.

And yeah, for Q10, the answer is wrong, right?!

10 is wrong, what in the world?

The answer for Q10 is correct, Tim gave the name away because he thought it was too depressing. But the second answer is correct as well because that's where the name originally came from.

I though it was Tim from another band. Not Tim Rice-Oxley from Keane.

You're right. Sorry, I was doing ten things at once. It was Tim from The High Wire.

Haha wow I had always believed it was Time Rice Oxley

my whole life is a lie :shame:

 

I got 90%, didn't know the 1st one

9/10, dang! I messed up #4.

80%, but make it 90% since the last one really can be either A or B :D

Oh yeah...and I got 90% (I admit I got lucky guesses on a couple of them), but I would have gotten all of them if the last one didn't mess me up.
