Default Re: GL Lyrics fan(atics) fun quizzers and more !

OK guys, all new Q's, a

set of 6
new CLUES , FOR Q's 139 - 144!

and maybe not-quite-as-hard as the last 6,

based upon comments....


Q139....going 'round....

Q140....cause in....

Q141....as strong

Q142....tide shall....

Q143 Now....

Q144....above

Please remember, if anything for the benefit of new members"
and/or: folks new to Lightfoot, the "ideal" submission form:
as possible, realizing the limitations of answering off the top of the head.
When possible, this will satisfy the requests Char had, for all' benefit:
A. Song Title - with
~gl credited,
or as a propos, ~Dylan etc.,
B. The lyrics patch of at least two verses/lines
C. wherein lie the CLue word(s) as you wish for clarity.

HAVE FUN !



I do stand by the value of off-the-top-of-the-head
responses, as the demonstration of skill and familiarity with
Lightfoot songs, and I also know this lends to
what can be incomplete lyrics patches
, the clue is hard
enough to get in your head and the song title I know,
so, just as possible. Far better that
(incomplete lyrics patches) than people taking to looking up
in Lightfoot! etc., and essentially cheating ! -
exceptions made have been of good judgement, as
in getting the game going again, as Ron did wisely
.
I have taken to Wayne's
World Lightfoot's
datum for insertion into
my pseudo-code , and thank/credit Wayne Francis for that. I ought
to send him an e-mail formerly asking for permission, as a
courtesy; I've no doubt as to his response, but it would be the
right thing to do, as my database grows, and eventually becomes
relational database ! I have taken to using database/Wayne's
World-Lighfoot! datum for verification, to avoid error and hasten
the response time, and frankly avoid errors on my part.
Originally I did all off the top of my head as you guys, but it
went to slow on responses of mine. My database also keeps a
record of questions ( I have to backfill from about 120 and
back), clues, song title, lyrics, winner's name, etc., too.


and, again:
HAVE FUN !
