Default Nanosounds quiz - answers

Will you be posting the answers to the nanosounds quiz on the forum page???

Also, I have the title answer for 29 and I know the artist but it's not working when I put it in.

I only have a few more to get and they are bugging me!

Please help!

The Guru has noticed that answers seem to be posted a week or so after the quiz is made available.

It stops people from giving up to easy ;-)

Hi all you quiz hosts.

Why is it that when there is an " ` " in the answer ...it totally screws up any chance of a correct answer.

Is there an easy answer to this prob` or am I doing something wrong.

PLS put me out of my misery.

LOL

Cheers SH.

Default Answer Time

The answers will be posted early next week. As I have said a number of times on the forum. Answers are posted 1 week after the quiz is put on the Siliconhell Mindbenders page.

Since this was only put on Siliconhell late last Friday the answers will not be available until next monday.

As for the answer to number 29, I have sent you a private message on this.

Hi Lauren,

For 29 the Title is correct but the Artist is not! Try just one of the singers not both of them.

Got any more that aren't being accepted?

Cheers........ Andrew

As far as I can tell the apostrophe needs to be used correctly to get the right answer. I haven't so far noticed any answers that are using apostropes incorrectly?

Default Nanosounds

The " ' " do not cause issues in Excel spreadsheets. Only if they have been programed incorrectly. I have checked this sheet and it seems OK. This was a quiz that was submitted and therefore as we have said before we cannot guarantee the quality of the answers. I have corrected the ones I knew were wrong... but I must admit to hating number 29 and have no idea the correct band name... I can tell you that it is the male singer. If someone wants to send me a private message with the correct artist name I will look into changing it.

Thanks to ALT for the PM with the answer.

I have now updated the answers for the quiz and both artists are included.

You can either use "and" or "&" inbetween the names, both will be accepted.

Hope that this sorts out everything for you...

Could someone give me a hint on number 36?? I have it on the tip of my tongue, and it's driving me crazy.
Oh!! and a tip to the song name of 25 (I think I'm pretty sure which it is, but I'm either messing up with the ' or absolutely mistaken =)
