    Some great tracks there btw.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 565 ✭✭✭zokrez


    Well i know no, 5, i have it but Pigman II merely asking as to what it is, is bothering me...

    By the way, how do record these. I used to do these quizzes on cassette tape and have loads if i knew how to transfer.

    Eh? Why is it bothering you? I don't give a care about winning/spoiling this quiz or anything. I just want to know #5 so I can go out and pick it up. It's not like I'm gonna pop back on here 30seconds after I'm told and go "ooh look! clever me I know #5!" if that's what you're worried about? :confused:
    You got asked as well?
    You were the only one I asked in PM. Thanks for replying btw :rolleyes:


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,034 ✭✭✭Devon


    This one was too easy. Just wanted to lure you all into a false sense of security before I drop the next bomb. Quiz 3 is next up and it's HARD.

    Once someone (apart from Zakrze) gets #5, I'll leave you all with Quiz 3 for the week.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 565 ✭✭✭zokrez


    No no Pigman II didn't PM me. I just couldn't remember what no. 5 was (like Pigman II) and it was bugging me last night. Dawned on me earlier this afternoon what it was so I'll leave it to someone else.

    By the way I wouldn't call it too easy. 1/2 seconds is not easy especially if it is not the start of a song. If you go past the 80's I would struggle and it would show my age.:rolleyes:

    Oh I see where the ambiguity is. When I said "i know no, 5, I have it" - I meant I couldn't remember what it was but i knew i owned it ! When I first read the thread, I saw Piggyman II wanted to know what no. 5 was and it gave me a mental block. No offence meant or taken.


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,034 ✭✭✭Devon


    That's where the confusion was. I sent him a PM giving him the answer and he seemed happy enough.

    Any more takers on #5? People can't complain about that one. I gave 8 seconds of it!
