    That was extremely hard! Still I did well for my 3rd attempt and I forgot about the 'phone a friend', 'ask the audience' options etc.

    I suck! Didn't make it past the first 3 questions. Guess I'm not a true metalhead...

    I sit with Tassadar - and I only got that far by guessing.

    On the other hand - I don't need to know this stuff, because I don't care about most of the subgenres. I'll just stay in my corner and listen to my nice, limited selection :)

    I tried to play the quiz three times, and everytime I got 0 points.

    It matches the rating of how much I like Metal and it's the same number of Metal CD's have.

    Hey, I actually made it to question 4 with something like 136 points - purely by guessing so I guess that means that I am luckier than Tassadar, Aikanaro and Master of Nuhn. :p

    Some of the questions are really easy, but other quetions are really hard to answer. This quiz is all about LUCK :p
    AND some of the questions actually only hav WRONG answers, for instance: *What year did Black Sabbath release their debut ? That was 1969 - the closest answer is 1970 :eek: And then suddenly questions about Pink Floyd, - really not metal, eh ? Then I also experienced to have the same question two times in a row... Well anyway it was fun...

    *Unfortunately you didn't enter our Top50 with 1332 points. Better luck next time!*
    Next time ?? I gave it 5 tries :eek: :shake:

    Strange point system. The third time through, I got three answers right and had over 1000 points (some bonus round). The fifth time I tried, I actually got to question 9 (utilizing the help options), but only had around 500 points! I thought I was doing good with my guess work. Apparently I'm not the metal head I thought I was. :cry:

    After many tries finally i made it (i used the 3 helps by the way). However the point evolution is very strange...looks like it varies from game to game. And the bonus questions only appears sometimes without any pattern.
