Re: GL Lyrics fan(atics) fun quizzers and more !
Seems we're getting this down to a science. Is it getting to easy ? We've had some varying input in regards to that. Maybe..some too easy.. maybe some too hard. Any input is welcome... All I figure we want is just to have fun...a low-stress thread, as it were :) that's AOK by me. :biggrin::clap::headbang:
I know you guys are going to get Q100 WITH THAT ONE ADDITIONAL WORD I added as a second clue at the end of the post above. So, I'm going to post the next set of 6. Q's 103 - 108 !, in the next post of mine. Let's nuke Q100, as its a common word, but check-out that second word clue...I'll bet you get it off the top of your head......er...uhm... toot-toot! |

Re: GL Lyrics fan(atics) fun quizzers and more !
Joveski,jj, RM, formerlyLavender, and others, regarding Q100. I gave you an unprecedented clue for a couple of qualities about it, and new forms of clues as addendums, however cryptic. What will be maddening to you when you see the answer, is how easy it is; whats hard is interpreting my evidently poorly-stated clues ! And thats not fun. If you want; I'll nuke it. But for one last shot, I'll line-up the original clues plus subsequent clues for it, see if it comes to mind for you all, if not; I'll nuke it and go to the next 6, so we're having fun !:clap::headbang::biggrin:
Q100 clues thus far: clue 1.... ("dots" before the clue means it is NOT the start of a "sentence". That's been the norm so far, until this one, where: clue 2 "There"...... - I pointed out not only the novelty of no dots before the clue word, and the capitalization of the the clue word's fist letter, indicating its the start of a sentence, not just a proper noun, as there are no dots before the clue. clue 3 "There".... a normal type of clue thus far in this regard- dots after the clue word(s), indicating the clue words) is/are NOT the end of the sentence, which would be indicated by one dot only ( has not happened yet. Like regular sentence structure. clue 4 "There" being a common word, by no means unique, a characteristic of clues intended to be the case so far, makes the need for additional clues a minimum gesture. The word, capitalized, no dots to the left of it, we know by virtue of those facts that is the start of a sentence, and I'll add now maybe even the start of the song. clue 5 I added a second word (or, phrase) for you quietly at the end of my evaluation of Joveski's 3-word triple-play, at the bottom of my post congratulating him, and referred to that second word in the "what is now a clue phrase" in the following post by me, to draw attention again. And that second word, in proper position, as given before, is Q100: There was.... (again we know this is the start of the sentence); self evident by capitalization of a non-proper noun - "There". Knowing as well in this post for the first time that it not only is the first part of a sentence in the song, the unprecedented clue of it "maybe the start of the song". So, if the song starts with: "There was..." - ? ! You know it well, very well. clue 6 - The clincher. thus far we know "There was...." probably starts the song, and I gave the uhm..er... words describing a sound pertinent to the song's subject matter, which could only be inferred to be the case... by the otherwise meaningless statement I'd hope would stand out where I said in reference to the song "toot-toot ! - the toot-toot! being a new and unprecedented form of clue so far the game that falls in the category of, well here is the reduced , relevant webster's definition" bottom line of the definition: "onomatopoeia" - the noun form ; rarely used that I have heard "on·o·mato·poe·ic" the adjective - common form - the quality of a word simply when the word "sounds" like the noise that the word is to describe, such as the word "hiss". The sound a snake makes sounds like the word "hiss", so the word is therefor on·o·mato·poe·ic Relevance to clue in Q100 - 'toot-toot"! is on·o·mato·poe·ic; eg what makes the sound "toot-toot ?" - and apply that to the likely song name subject, not the starting words necessarily at all. This a BIG clue.,plus the likely start of the song "There was..... ( starting a song about something that goes toot-toot!" (and the song is about something that makes the sound 'toot-toot'. Its far simpler than you're imagining..... and [the song] is very defining for Lightfoot. If you don't get it from that. s'OK, we'll nuke it and go to Q's 103 -108 OK guys...what goes "toot-toot!" - Q100 Nuke that mother. Last hint: (read this only if you are totally lost) - This song is almost always blown in concert by some newbie, with good intentions, that does not know to NOT clap at the great "pause" before the "last sentence". It seperates those who know his music from those who don't. Its THAT big of a song. BIG. If you don't get it by now, I will go outside and , well, mutter something self-deprecating, and then likely apologize to you and ceremoniously hand-over the symbolic "deal" and let someone better-spoken than myself give clues ! lol lol..lol.. :biggrin::clap::headbang::headbang: more blah-blah from the dictionary Main Entry: on·o·mato·poe·ia Pronunciation: \ˌä-nə-ˌmä-tə-ˈpē-ə, -ˌma-\ Function: noun 1 : the naming of a thing or action by a vocal imitation of the sound associated with it [steve's note: "it" is the word that has on·o·mato·poe·ic qualities, as show in the adjective usage in 2:, next, such as words such as: (as buzz, hiss)] [steve's note2 - words that sound like the noise that what they describe makes, such as the word "splat" which sounds like something making the noise "splat", or "umph" when someone is hit] 2 : the use of words whose sound suggests the sense — on·o·mato·poe·ic \-ˈpē-ik\ or on·o·mato·po·et·ic \-pō-ˈe-tik\ adjective [ as steve described above in yellow in 1 :] — on·o·mato·poe·i·cal·ly \-ˈpē-ə-k(ə-)lē\ or on·o·mato·po·et·i·cal·ly \-pō-ˈe-ti-k(ə-)lē\ adverb OK ok lol thats all anyone including me would ever want to digest for one song, including me. I hope you still like the song after this ! :):biggrin::headbang: |

Joveski - Q100 you guessed:
Quote:
When she took her last tumble the sea bottom rumbled There was no confusion or blame The captain said "Men we must answer again - excerpt from "Triangle" ~gl OK Joveski - good work !.... but I'll make you a deal... see if you or anypne else can identify the song originally intended by me, using the veritable plethora of clues in the post over this one. Why are plethoras always 'veritable' ? lol - those 5 guys in California must know, or the sinister three guys in Chicago have always KNOWN. lol This one now is defining a life moment for me. It shouldn;t but it is. Humour me please, my Rainy-Day friends, and guess the "toot-toot!" clue for the song I originally intended...a BIG song of Gordon's. It would make me...happy... :( => :) &if "song" = "toot-toot!, &then &goto Steve's now happy, &else &goto &routine PASS_THE_DEAL LOL. J/K FOR THE structured programming nerds out there like me who don't mind the high-level syntax world of non-arcane plain english & CLI's of 4GL languages I just did a pig-latin version of.....lol. work with me here Joveski, please ? :) Should we throw the towel in , you definately got a valid ambiguous case ! - so, back to "toot-toot" my Lightfoot Troubled-doors, er Troubadors.... I'm gettin' tired lol.... giver 'er a shot for the Gipper.... JOVESKI: QUICK NON-SEQUITER QUESTION: I am doing a quick, informal, non-longitudinal study of selective cases of global-warmingin a limited sampling; one of which is in fact Melbourbne, Australia. Could you verify the veracity of my Microsoft weather-source that says as of last sampling ( not specified, so we assume to be presently) it is partly-cloudy there and 56 degrees Farenheit . How accurate is Microsoft on that as of 1 am 8/29 GMT -Zulu - not normalized for local DST, which would thius make it 2am GMT w/o daykight saving locally. Thank you ! |
Re: GL Lyrics fan(atics) fun quizzers and more !
RM !
YOU SIR HAVE RESTORED MY FAITH IN HUMANITY ! You said: Quote:
I bow to you, Sir. A man of sound reasoning, good humour, and keen of mind and wit. To be fair, as aforementioned regarding Joveski's ambiguous case; yes he did in fact get a valid answer first, in so far as we are accepting ambiguous cases that are substantiated. But after proper accolades to Joveski, I made the distinct request to further the quest for CRT -that vast, Big Country, career-defining song for Lightfoot, despite his apparently stating that he would maintain that TWOTEF is his best work. BOTH, INDUBITOUBLY, very career great moments in his professional history. Thank you RM, for coming to the rescue here. And again Joveski, thank you for the hard work,coming up with a verifiable ambiguous case that is acceptable. You're both winner's on this one.Let's go in the Bucket 'o Lyrics Saloon, and this round'll be on me, for the house ! Bravo to both of you ! :clap::clap::headbang::biggrin: :) :biggrin::headbang::clap: |

Re: GL Lyrics fan(atics) fun quizzers and more !
jj, Im sorry, I was just trying to be helpful. The gang was moving so fast the difficulty of the questions have progressed correspondingly, but I still want it to be fun for the person just popping in or out. In specific, you wrote:
Quote:
What that meant was:normally the clues all along have been words taken mid-sentence from sentences in lyrics, in songs. I don;t know the musician lingo, so please bare with me. To indicate the fact that the clue is mid-sentence, I would preceed the clue with dots i.e.: ......(clue) AND follow the clue with dots afterwards to indicate there are more words in the sentence, again that the clue simply is mid-sentence: .i.e.: ......(clue)...... - thats been the norm for well over 90 clues. I had one that cane up - Q100, for CRT, where the clue was: Q100 "There"....... - where by virtue of the word "There' having no dots (periods) to the left of the clue, ws the first case where I needed to communicate that the clue was the first word in the sentence, not a word mid-sentence. Further evidence I tried to properly show of this was capitalizing the "T" in "There", indicating in proper sentence convention that, unless a proper noun was used eg a name, the word was the beginning of the sentence- making 2 clues to that effect. Conversely, and this has not come up, if there were no dots to the right of the clue, and there were to the left, it would indicate that the clue was the last word in the sentence of that line of lyrics, eg, Q100 could have ben given as: Q100 .........run , indicating the word run was the last word in the sentence ( I am going by memory) . This has not come up yet. The challenge for me making clues that make it fun, are to try to pick wors that are unique to one song, and are substantial enough to idewntifythe song from . We have gravitated from 3 -4 words per clue at the start of the game, to commonly one or two words for a while now. What part of the clues os drivingyou crazy. beyond this context ? I would be happy to explain it, or change how we do it with consensus, as I have offerred all along. We did do a mid-course correction so far with your guys input of two things - no contractions changed to two words, conversely no two words made into a contraction to fit a clue. Thats one change. The other was we would not accept any variatins on the clue word, such as tense, (past, present, or future) in any event differing from the clue tense, andmoreover, we would not accept a word that contained the clue, i.e "another" as a offering for the clue "other" . This was a point RM rasied in humour, but in fact was valid, and previously too lax, making it unfair to more strict observers of verbatim clues and guesses that corresponded verbatim. If you have any siuggestions to help make you not crazy lol I understand.... Just mention them, we'll run it up the flagpole and see who salutes it, and if all fails or I grow burnt out on fair , good clues.... I have offerred to "pass the deal" as in poker, should anyone want to give clues a spin... That kind of covers all points raised thus far; I hope it does yours. If not, please let me now. We all just want to have fun. And are ! If not so for you...lets fix it ! :biggrin::headbang::clap::):confused::(:):biggrin: |
Re: GL Lyrics fan(atics) fun quizzers and more !
thanks for putting all that effort into clarifying this for me, while I sincerely didn't understand the "no...'s", my comment about the clues making me crazy was not...you're clues are not to blame
speaking of ambiguity/common GL phrases/words...what would you think his most used 1)noun, 2)verb and 3)adjective is? |
Re: GL Lyrics fan(atics) fun quizzers and more !
Holy cow, jj - lol....uhm,... I would need to set-up a spreadsheet, or do a relational info database dump and index, and a series of prgrammatic queries.... which I do not have ths software for on this P.C. for the latter. That would leave just a general gut feel, or more precisly - a S.W.A.G. - I could pravly do that.... if you wanted to and we compard notes.....that;d be fun sorta cause its Lightfoot, otherwise, lol.English bore the lvin cr** out of me in school at all levels.But if you're serious - I'd venture into it if we both did it -and compared afterwards. Might be interesting. hmmmcool...'tseeer lol

Q107 - She's Not The Same
"Don't look now, she's right BEHIND you" (I didn't cheat.........I confirmed) |
Re: GL Lyrics fan(atics) fun quizzers and more !
for 107, I was thinking of "I'm leaving you behind" from the Mountains and Marianne
for 108, of the many "fire" lyric phrases from different tunes, the tune that stands out to me is Ballad of Yarmouth Castle...I'm confusing many lines but something like "and now the fire is raging" or "fire glowing"? how is the relational dB coming, steve, lol....that's a lot of copy and pasting just to get started...don't lose sleep (day or night, lol) over it:) |
Re: GL Lyrics fan(atics) fun quizzers and more !
For Q107 I also considered CRT
"Behind the blue Rockies". But I thought that would violate the "dot(........) rule" since it was the first word of a sentence. |
Re: GL Lyrics fan(atics) fun quizzers and more !
I don't know, rm....those are yellow dots...previously they were white ones...the various colours may indicate a different representation...we really need an ump or field judge...I'm going to refrain from tossing the challenge flag this time...good answers, all...awaiting official word from the geoman

Re: GL Lyrics fan(atics) fun quizzers and more !
Still awaiting the final ruling..........it may be a Labor Day weekend break, or perhaps the responses are under instant-replay review.

Re: GL Lyrics fan(atics) fun quizzers and more !
Note patient friends and players of the quiz game, thanks for your patience, and if you wish to skip the odd nature of my last several days, simply jump down to yellow below, where Q'S 103-108 ARE ANSWERED.
OK troops. I have returned, and note with satisfation your thoughts were generous regarding my absence, speculating as to the possibility of Labour day weekend activities,etc. . In fact, I've been sick, which would not normally stop my participation, but without excessive detail regarding other infirmities, my post-surgical optical acuity has been shot-to-he** until today.eg I could not see worth sh**. But, as I was once again on the Isle of St. Kilda/Hirta, in the outer Hebrides, Scotland, where I got my snivles, and grew deathly ill while trying to relax and recover.Wrong climate for that. So I flew over to Skye Isle, and I tried to view the 280' tall Monument to Sir William Wallace "Braveheart", and the magnificent moument of Sir Robert The Bruce. Both are on the Isle of Skye, not far from Stirling University where our last 6 questions were verified, as the Isle of Skye is one of the last bastions, nay, home to the ancient Gaelic Cultures and traditions, and Lightfoot himself has said he is part Scottish, so its no coincidence some of the etymology of the more unusual terms we've encounterd cite a Scottish origin, or Celtic. Nevertheless, I asked an abbot of the only standing, inhabitable structure of what were once three Chapels, now ruins of Monasteries, except that of St. Brendan, on the Isle of St. Kilda/Hirta a pair of islands considered "one" of the 14 outer Hebrides. Once again, the evil Lord of Dunvegan, who robbed my famil of its "Dun" components, and then made the first aluminum sleeved Sterling engined Horsless Carriage at the turn of the 1900's, and added the distiunguished vehicle's meltable engine wonder to his name as proud as he was, thus becoming Lord DunVegan. This Lord was responsible for having the last of the ancestral inhabitants "evacuaated" by helicopter in a storm in 1937, thus leaving the island and its mysterious ruins empty all, but St Brendans Monastery that is. It is in this Monastery that the Abbot was willing to research several terms while my eyes were in ruin. My/His findings were confirmed at the University of Sterling, in the Inner Hebrides Islands, for veracity. Thus, we have confirmation of questions of Q's 103 - 108 !. However, after Lord Dunwith Vegas, er... Dunvegan, ostensibly evacuuated the isleof St. Kilda in '37, leaving the land in his posession less the sacred Monastery, Church, and its medaevil era-strong Library, lo and behold but what should be built there, but when the Commonwealth of Scotland commandeered the better part of the Isle, recompensing the heir-apparent to its salvage-rights maester;Lord Duvegan ! He pocketed some healthy notes from the Minstry of Defence, of all public agents, and low and behold, the Defence Ministry dug, err,, rather deep, and built several missile silohs, and also a missile tracking station, there to this day. The silohs are not discussed. But we know. They maintain they are simply marching the 12 ft. fence topped with coiled barbed wire angled outward because the value of the fence is such that they must maintain one man there in charge, known as the "Minister of Dae Faences" -and his simple troops of "snaepers" who wear the colours of Lord Dunvegan's military plaid. Men coming upand down into and out of the ground through an airsealed motized 6-ft diameter "haetch" are said to be "simply makin' uise of the common facilities any man takes leave of several times a dae". Well, be that as it may, back to Q's 103 - 108. q'S 103-108 entries for the last several days, now we are back on track, lest I die and be sent back to me' ancestral home of dear Scotland.... Q103 clue was ....handle.... formerlyLavender propsed the song "Now and Then" - which is correct ! Congratulations FornerlyLavender Q104 Clue was ....tunnel so....and Joveski offerred the correct song "Ode to Big Blue" - congratulations Joveski ! Q105 Clue was....lovely river.... and jj offerred the correct answer of "Boathouse" and regailed us with a few variations on lyrics, verse , and simular=ted ssong sounds with the state-of-the-art "dee-de-dee-de-de-dee-dee" we've all done in a pinch for sound effects for our amusement and favourable impression upon our moderator, the lovely and stylish Char ! :biggrin::clap: Congrats jj ! Q106 Clue was....hide...., and Joveski " nails it with "If You Need Me" Q107 Clue was....behind.... RM nails it precisely, with fore-and-aft dots in mind in the clue, precluding CRT, and leaving 'She's Not the Same" - Congratulations RM, well thought out. lastly, Q108 Clue was ....fire...., and Joveski three-peats it with his iron-man fast-ball and brings in the Song Don Quixote A few comments and Q'S from the players emerged:Rm notes that dots preceeding the clue that otherside would have worked for CRT if the dots were only to the right of the clue...good call RM. "That left it She's Dot the Same"..screeech--*&66&%sorry folks that was "She's Not the Same" lol.... Conjecture in jest arose from the ranks as to: "those yellow dots may mean something different"., and also a reminder/question to me as to thinking I was going to change on ambiguous cases..my humour must have been poor , cause I made mention of running by ambiguities by a panel of wisemen, and in jest at that, cause if you thought these last 6 took a while, if we systematically ruled out ambiguity by peer-revue: 1. - They're be no-one left to play, and 2. It would take too long, and 3, I'd pass the deal LOL. No, -actually, the dots to the left and/or right, as RM reasoned, considerably cut down on the ambiguous cases, the other half is in the selection of clues,...but somewill still leak thru, hey its a game.... and I think its going fine with the dots now...really.... :) lol, but common -sense has prevailed, and for the record, as was the final interpretation, dot color doth not telleth a story...I've got thome hair on my tongue. And thank you's and apreciation go out to all the contestants who exhibited the patience, good taste, and sportmanship with such kind comments as deference to waiting for GEOman to make his rulings et al. Thank you. We'll knock Q's 109 - 114 out quick... WELL DONE MY COLLEAGUES & ETYMOLOGICAL ACES !:clap::clap::headbang::headbang::headbang::biggrin ::biggrin: |

RM, IS ON THE BALL , AS IS formerlyLavender this AM. You've been patient, now you guys are jumpin' all over 'em. Truth be told, RM, yours makes three valid cases, a new record not only for an ambiguity, but particularly for one that ends or starts a sentence - i.e. no dots to left, or to the right. To be sure, I verified your entry in Wayne's World, as memory did not serve on this one; I tend to be weak on the UA period off the cuff. Sure 'nuff:

Jesse Joe - Congratulations !
You got me on that one... an ambiguous case I'd not anticipated, and I should have - I love that song. You cased-out the dots and capitalized first letter right to ID it as the start of a line, and as it turned out, that is correctly-so for the one I intended - No Hotel - where "Down around" starts several lines if memory serves, and it most definately does in Down around the :Bend in the Water, as you got correctamundo ! Way to go Jesse ! That's the first of our new 6 Q's 115 - 120. Q119 is done! BTW - I've been doing Red, White, and Blue for fun and patriotism on the USA flag, but thoughtlessly it had not even occurred to me to respect other flag colours for other countries ! Well, realistically, I'd best not tackle that until circumstances permit staying ahead of you speed lyrics racers lol. Then maybe... HOWEVER - Note the word 'ambiguous' above in Red and White, deliberately for you, Mon Ami, pour la Canada ! - Your Flag ,by memory is of course the Red Maple Leaf on the White background, right ? How's my 36 year-old Francaise from 9th grade ? I probably said "good job, goat breath" and don't know it lol Thanks for playing Jesse. Hope we can add you to the 'regulars' ! |

Your francais is not bad at all mon amis... "la" Canada would be "le" Canada, but it is a very small error.
I didn't think of "The No Hotel" which was your answer and the right one... Notice I had put a (question mark) on my answer, as I was not sure if it was correct. :rolleyes: I do read them all but find them more difficult to solve than say; "Joveski" which is really good at this... :clap: Dont be afraid to tell me if I was wrong Steve ... :biggrin: Keep up the good work Geo Steve ! :) |
