Just wanted to note that though this is a music TD, there are no audible clues due to time constraints. Only images and written clues.
Traditional TD rules apply here:
1.) Answer one question in each set you think others will not. Your total for that question corresponds to the number of people who answer the same question you do. The lowest cumulative score including bonuses will be the winner. There are bonuses after each of the first three sets of questions (“quarters”) plus an end bonus where you can answer as many as you are able.
2.) One drop and one sheep are available for you to use. There are no bonuses for answering all questions, so I highly suggest you utilize your drop at some point.
3.) Incorrect responses will add five (5) points on top of the sheep’s total.
4.) Jeopardy! spelling rules and leading article rules apply - you’ll get dinged for misspelling if you change the word or name’s pronunciation (i.e., Vilnuis as opposed to Vilnius), or if the inclusion/lack of leading article creates ambiguity with another title/item.
5.) (ADDED 8/26) Bonus questions are free of penalty for incorrect guesses so take a stab!
* If you find something is incorrect or malfunctioning, please feel free to shoot me a PM or reply in the thread (use a spoiler please!) and I will do all I can to take care of them in a timely manner.
* Submit responses via this form or by private message no later than (EDIT: Tuesday, September 3 at 11:59 p.m. EST. The reveal will tentatively begin Wednesday morning - Quarter 1 Wednesday, Quarter 2 Thursday, Quarter 3 Friday, Quarter 4 Saturday. Good luck and ENJOY!
