Quiz Rules/Format
(Same as last year, feel free to skip to the quiz if you know the rules already)

Your Task: Name the mystery Artist, ideally with as few clues as possible.

Correctly guess the artist on the first clue? 500 points.

After scrolling down to the second clue? 400 points.

Still don’t know after the fifth clue? 0 points, but a crisp high-five for participating.

I’ll use google translate to put the correct answer at the bottom in Arabic (if you read Arabic, that’s fantastic, but no cheating by reading ahead!) and you can translate it back to the language of your choice to confirm your answer.

In the comments, please enter your POINTS earned (not the artist name) and I’ll keep track of the running totals in a spreadsheet.

In addition to eternal bragging rights, the winner at the end of the year may even get something as prestigious as a digital certificate.

Here goes!

Verbalize the Positive x 2

a) I’m happy to own a used LP of Welcome to the Pleasuredome – even happier that it once belonged to a friend of mine, and that I found her old copy (with her unmistakable ALL CAPS last name on the inside of the album cover) at a local shop!

b) Really enjoyed last night’s LeBrain Train episode, featuring the surprise premiere of the new Tee Bone track, COMMUNITY!
