Question 7, LVIII: Where did I go wrong?

Postby dave opens doors » Thu Aug 16, 2007 8:02 am

I still haven't received this week's TT (I've e-mailed the gurus; hopefully that will soon be remedied), and I see by the updated standings that I didn't get last week's Question 7 right. Having not yet received LIX, I still don't know where I went wrong. How and why did my once-slavish devotion to pop music let me down?

I felt certain that it was all bands/artists that had released triple albums, but clearly there is some kind of wrinkle I hadn't considered. So, if you've received LIX with the correct answer or just got it right in the first place, please, tell me, what's the right answer?

That was the correct answer.

Hmm. Well, I'm 'David Allen' on the scoreboard, currently second alphabetically in a big ol' jogjam at #301, and I'm not credited with any correct 7's. Perhaps another corrective e-mail to the TT gurus is in order?

I just sent you another copy of this weeks trivia. Andy will have to answer your questions about your score though, since he was grading last week. Thanks.

Did you ever get this omission straightened out?

Well, after I got TT LIX e-mailed to me (thanks Lily!), I sent a message back about the scoring error. It hasn't been updated on the scoreboard, but I hope that amid the score-shuffling of the early part of this week it will be fixed.

David, your score should be fixed when the new scoreboard is posted this week. Thanks for your patience!
