Sorry for all the updates, but things are now frenetically changing. The average is plumetting then rocketing back up then plumetting again with a huge range of answers. One thing is clear: quiet NWO member Lundibleu is the new leader, driving the average

Nah, you're not a poser. Unless of course, you're wearing a Joy Division t-shirt right now [:D]

I had to burn MY t-shirt once I realized that I could score higher on an all Sheena Easton name that tune game [:I]

Wow, that's certainly a great set of rarities. I'll stand by my earlier decision not to submit my sparse response sheet. Like Kimiiii, I had no business playing this game. I theoretically could have managed 70 points, but more likely around 40-50. [:I
