Well, that was a good question to pick BANDWAGON on. 25 points as opposed to 14 for the sheep. Pity it doesn't make up for that singleton yesterday.

Curious why the order of the answers to this question was chosen. The sheep is listed 3rd? Singletons scattered throughout? :?

So, nobody else was looking ahead, seeing the next question was about Shakespeare? I feel advanced.

I decided to put the order of answers in the order that I put the answers when grading. So, in this case, if the first three answers given chronologically in entry order were "Titanic, Casablanca, The Godfather", that's how I put in the answers on JBoard.tv.

Because of the way Lumosityfan has chosen to calculate it, BANDWAGON can actually score more than the SHEEP.

After question 4, I was tied for first at 159 pts.

On question 5 I had 14, for a total of 173. (Bandwagon was 7 for question 5)

I was tied with tpmorrison and others, after question 4, and if the bandwagon for question 5 was truly 7, their score should be 166 not 184.

The number in the brackets he's posting is not the point total, but the total number of people who answered BANDWAGON. BANDWAGON is equal to half of the number of participants, which is 25 for this game.

Oh wow! I didn't understand the BANDWAGON thing. I never used it, and it may come back to bite me. Sigh.

rounded up. So I guess the first step in the calculation is to round us all up.
