gocubsgo must be stefan..

[simetime]

So I noticed a bug...I saw where someone had picked NEW SONG multiple times and got +2 points for every one...even thought they only played one new song It didn't really matter cuz they over picked and lost all points any, but I figured I'd point it out

How many here were/are a "buddy" or were around to see regulars talk about the "buddies"?

Count me in as one of them.

11/19/00.0000 -3 for overpick (19pts)

Just got off of work. 7PM to 5AM shift. Time for sleep.. then Bayern Munich v. Chelsea... then setlist pick... then getting my Preak on watching Preakness... then last minute setlist editing.

And wow to the number of players! Hello to everyone new and old! Good Luck this summer.

happened to me to, but my score is correct. even though it has me +2 for 4 new songs, i only got 2 points for the one new song. strange though

[Keyz]

17 points...so weak.

This set was cake to pick if you heard the sound check and put new song and mercy both in

Unfortunately, I didn't know Mercy was on there to be picked until midset.

[mfahrens]

Yea somehow I landed gaucho in the right spot. I thought they would open with ynk

[zachyd]

Feels weird picking my set. Cool that the results were in right after the show.

Any old school setlist buddies remember tirelessly reminding Joe M to update the results on certain shows?

[seekup41nancies]

I gotta redeem myself tonight!

[gauloisesblond]

is there a spotchart this year like somebody created for past tours?

If so can somebody post the link to it?

Thanks,
Kris

I make my own spot chart. I'd share it but have no idea how lol. Almanac has a song chart which is helpful.

well no, I meant where you can also see the position of each song, when it was played. Does anybody remember what I´m talking about.
Once the tour had passed by a few shows one had to scroll from left to right quite a bit to watch all setlist, but it still was kinda handy for setlist game

hihi, yeah, i do so also, but the internet one was so nice and colorful - i think it also distinguished between different albums and stuff....

[hbktonyb]

I think Whitey used to do that one. Mine is similar only I color the opener, closer and encore. It's just an excel spreadsheet.

[gocubsgo3822]

I am the best. Hands down. No one comes close. I would post my picks but dont want anyone to tie me

[bucs2002]

Can someone please explain the scoring as I think I am messing up here. I filled all spots but I think that actually hurts you. Any info would be helpful as I am not totally sure how the scoring works at all.

Yeah, you definitely don't want to do that. It's minus 3 points for every extra song you pick so if the band plays 20 songs and you picked 21 songs for them to play you're already down three.

As for how the rest of scoring goes, here's what it says in the rules sections...

---------------
Scoring:

2 points will be awarded for guessing a song that was played that night, but not in the correct spot in the setlist.
6 points will be awarded for guessing the correct spot in the set a song was played
3 points will be deducted for each extra song that you guess. (If you pick 20 songs to be played, and the band plays 18, you lose 6 points.)
If the last song that you choose is the encore closer for the band, you are awarded 4 bonus points.(Total of 6 points if you incorrectly chose which spot it would be played in, 10 if you correctly choose the spot in which its played.)
If you correctly guess the opener, you are awarded 4 bonus points.

--------------


...its one thing to pick good songs its another to pick good spots and how many songs you think they'll play effects that a lot.

You get negative points for every song you choose over the amount played. So don't choose more than 18, 19, 20, 21...etc...

Edit: This is my first attempt at the Setlist Game. Can someone please explain to me what exactly the 0/0/0 stuff means? Sorry for the noobish question!

[hbktonyb]

0/0/0...

# of songs guessed corect / # of songs played / # of songs picked in the correct spot (including opener)
