Nothing more disturbing that seeing people use John Williams' name in vain.

And there are some new players! JuPe makes an impressive run for the top spot, but franz is quick to give himself an extra point... and room for an extra one!
Still, he'll need to identify some of the 'easy' ones to guarantee a top score
Southall also joins, though he doens't manage to secure his spot on the other end of the list
franz_conrad: 33 points
JuPe: 23 points
Plindboe: 19 points
Bregt: 19 points
FalkirkBairn: 18 points
Southall: 10 points
Bregje: 9 points
Thor: 8 points
Anthony: 6 points -

Just curious: who wants to admit that clip 20 is a very nice composition?
I'll admit to it, Bregje. But your added smilie worries me somewhat - it sounds very familiar and it's a great piece. And from what BoddH has said to me I think that it's one that I should get. But I haven't worked it out so far. And I've had it on "track repeat" for ages now!
Ooohhh, my fingers are itching to reply, but any answer would be a huge hint and then Bob will be angry with me...
Oh well, let me tell you this, it doesn't surprise me that you like it, because you already said before you think the score album is a good listen from start to finish. I was hoping some people who have not been too positive about this score would admit that as a bare composition it is nice! And that's all I'm gonna say.

I sometimes find it very difficult to identify these when they have been transcribed or adapted for a smaller ensemble. Clip 17, for example; I originally couldn't identify it but when it did eventually become clear what it was I couldn't believe that I didn't recognise it.
For me 12, 15, 16, 17 are the real buggers!! -

And Bregje is the first to correctly guess the Bonus clip, which gives her an extra 5 points! This gives her a great advantage: c'me on, you can win this!

JuPe: 23 points
Plindboe: 19 points

FalkirkBairn can finally go to bed, after he figured out clip 20! This earns him a spot in the top 3 scorers, pushing plindboe to the fourth spot! Well done! -

This particular clip highlights just how bad I am at identifying themes when they are transcribed to a form I am not familiar with.

And FalkirkBairn sure is someone who doesn't give up easily! He just got 4 points extra, which makes him the one who rises upwarts the fastest. If this keeps on going this way, he might even head to the top! -

Stavroula, a not responding .rar programme shouldn't be a reason not to participate in the festivities! Is there another way for me to give you the clips, perhaps? -

Not to worry Bob!My brother is coming by today and I'll get him to fix it for me,so I hope I'll be able to participate!Thanks, anyway for the offer!

Ah, pfew, I will be awaiting your awnsers, then!
It is getting harder to secure a spot on the top, though, now Bregt has gotten 2 extra points! This secures him his spot above plindboe
(this might be a discouragement for tommy_boy to play, btw
).

Woohoo, Demetris got the bonus indeed, plus he guessed a fair share of clips, which gives him a total of 20 points! Could this be his personal record?

Whoah! Hello Maintitles! Long time no see
Too bad that franz is once again out of reach. But it's nice to see so many good scores.
I will give this a shot this evening but I doubt if I'll even reach double digits. But a very interesting idea for the game, Bob
Stavroula,
If the rar file format was the only problem for you then perhaps the zip file will work. I just sent you Bob's clips via the zip format. -

Ah, welcome back Bel, I'll look forward to your clips! And thanx for the .zip idea! Haven't got a zip-programme myself, but hopefully this'll give Stavroula the possibility to participate as well!

I think one of the things that has made this game quite enjoyable is that all the clips can be listened to in a row quite pleasantly!
I'll make the clips for the next game tonight so it's ready to go. (Though I must say the idea of Bhel making a last minute run has me nervous.

Haha, you should, he's doing good
Plus, he is one of a very select few who guessed the bonus right, in his first guess! I'm awaiting the title of the piece from him, but you can already add 5 points up to his current 11, I guess 
Also Stavroula enters, and though she's only got 4 points, its clear she is having fun, and that's what it's all about!

EDIT: BP indeed found the title of the piece, which makes him one of the lucky few to guess the bonus right

Just a quick question, would it possible for the music files to not be in RAR form (whatever that is) as i don't have a program that can open it, (unless i'm being stupid) and i doubt i'm the only one. Am fine with all the files being lumped together in one big file, just not RAR!!If in doubt, let the wookie win
