RESULTS AND ANSWER KEY for Golden Oldies Lyrics Quiz #197 (Revision 2)
After posting the GOLQ197, 3 entrants brought to my attention that they had
not been included in the results. For some unexplicable reason, Hotmail
must have dropped their entries. Two of those participants had perfect
scores! Hmmm... I wonder if that's a coincidence :-) The Coasters, who
were the previously announced winners of GOLQ197, have informed me that
they've already spent their prize money. So, the "real" winners will have
to grin and bear it :-)
Anyway, I reworked the results table and the recognition table. Here's the
corrected set of results. In the future, if you don't get an acknowledgement
from me within a couple days, please follow-up with me to verify I've
received it. Or contact one of the other quizmasters and let them know.
So, congratulations to RANDY PRICE & PETER MORLEY and THE VILLAGE IDIOTS for
their perfect entries. (Well, sort of. I decided not to deduct a half point
from Randy for "Everly Brotheers" :-) Congratulations are also in order for
THE COASTERS who only missed one tie-breaker and to the teams of REALLY
ROCKIN' IN BOSTON, THE DELPHI TRIVIA CLUB, MIKE WEAVER, and the JAMIE LUBIN
team for their outstanding entries.
GOLQ198 has already been posted.

Theoretically, the author will be someone you recognize.
Thanks to all who entered!
