Game Rule Adjustment

I believe I suggested this a while ago but never implemented it, nor do I remember where it was suggested. But as I’ve started it on films, I will do so on all the guess game threads too.

What’s the rule?
Once a user reaches 50 points, they will become applicable to losing one point per wrong guess. The same for a user reaching 100 points, except it’ll be losing two points not just one. However, if this causes them to go under 100 or 50 points, then the rule will revert for them until they’re over once again.
This is to make it harder on those users and give a fairer chance on the others to catch up in to them.

Group thirteen:

  1. Over their 16-year career, the band explored various types of music, predominantly centred on jazz (initially the “free” variety), but also incorporating elements of art music, ethnic music, R&B, funk, and rock. While their work was categorised as “jazz fusion”, the band members generally distanced themselves from that term.
  2. 1976’s Black Market album was perhaps the most rock-oriented work which the group had produced to date.

Group fourteen:

  1. The band gradually took shape from members of other bands in Wellington, New Zealand’s music scene in the late 1990s.
  2. In 2001, the now-seven-member band, sometimes calling themselves the “seven-headed soul monster”, continued to play live at clubs and festivals.

Group fifteen:

  1. They have sold over 15 million records worldwide, making them one of the best selling rap acts of all time.
  2. On November 4, 2022, all three members were honoured with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, located by the Amoeba Music store on Hollywood Boulevard.

HAHA. Yeah, nah, he’s not a group.

Sadly, it’s not them this time.

That’s all gravy, thanks for telling me.

Would any of you be a able to please have a guess on some of the other threads too - the Film one, the TV one, and the famous person one?

  3. The band’s first studio album in 2005, Based on a True Story, showcased polished versions of songs the band had developed gradually at live shows over the years - in some cases going back to 1999; the album’s title is a reference to that process.

Group fifteen: Salt-N-Pepa

  2. On November 4, 2022, all three members were honoured with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, located by the Amoeba Music store on Hollywood Boulevard.
  3. In March 2019, it was announced that the group would have a biographical miniseries coming to the Lifetime network, highlighting the rise of the group to become one of the first successful female rap groups in hip hop. Queen Latifah, as well as the group will be executive producers of the series.

  4. According to Zawinul, new drummer Ishmael Wilburn apparently “lost heart” on tour (despite performing well in the studio). To shore up the music, the band hired another drummer, Darryl Brown, to play alongside him. At the end of the tour, both Wilburn and Brown left the band (as did Dom Um Romão) and the band was, once again, drummerless.

Most songs begin as a rhythm on Faiumu’s MPC, and more sections are progressively added during jam sessions.

For 15, the only artist I can think of with an album of that name is Blake Shelton. Obviously not, but oh well.
