    I guessed that one!

    It's a lovely score, and I especially worship the theme playing in this clip. I only have 6 scores by this composer so far, but I do agree this guy deserves all the praise we can muster.

    Wow, clip 6 certainly struck home! dizzy
    I think I just got my filmmusic spark back and I'm glad (and a bit surprised too) that it happened with this one!! As soon as I finish this game I'll get out that disc again.

    Great game.
    James, I think you found the right balance between familiar and unfamiliar clips and the ones that can be figured out. There really have to be some easy ones in there to keep people like me motivated, preferably among the first couple of clips.

    Not many entrants (which also seemed to be the case with Anthony and Tommy_Boy's games) - are people losing interest? Or are people just waiting till nearer the deadline before entering? Or do people think they'll get a low score so aren't bothering? I'd have thought an awful lot of people would be familiar with at least half of the scores in this game.

    For me the last couple of games were too difficult and I think that's why I was losing interest. I was also busy, but I'm sure that if the games were easier, I'd have made some time to figure them out. Also, the games have become rather big, so you really need to sit down to listen to it all, read the clues and then start guessing and searching! I know I spend a lot of time on it when I really go for it!

  4. This an excellent game James. I think the numbers go up and down according to people's general level of busyness... I couldn't participate in the game before last, and just missed out on the last, largely because I never found that hour I was after.

    And I will be sending you some more guesses. I'm letting those mysterious melodies sit in the back of my head until I stumble on top of them.

    Shipping and handling of 2 CDs to Australia is going to be expensive!! Now, on the other hand, second class postage to North Wales? Just pointing this out.

  9. I suspect Southall's better-half will make a late run, score well, and save him the effort of making any trips to the post box at all. wink

    Update: a new player has entered! Well done to LadyS who picks up an incredible 51 points, including the surprise bonus point for identifying the composer of Clip 26, which would have appeared if I could have been bothered.

    I take it then you haven't received my invisible e-mail yet, which contained the correct guesses not only for this game, but for every singly game you might conceivably host in the future of not only this reality, but in every multiverse, amassing me an amount of points that is in fact incalculable by current scientific standards?

    How long will the game run? I'm sure I can score higher now that there are hints.
