Scoreboard: Round 1
After 10 postings "Name That Tune" is off to a terrific star-studded start. Let's take a look at the scores for Round 1:
- In first place is the redoubtable Sparky P. with 300 points.
- Two first rate composers, Alan Theisen & Reynold Tharp, are tied for second with 200 points each.
- Tied for third are Anthony Cornicello & Eric Bruskin, who each took down 100 points by nailing two very tricky posts. Anthony's was my personal fav this round.
- Tortoise & Anthony Cheung are tied for fourth with 50 points apiece.
But with 9,000 points still to be won the field remains wide open. I look forward to to more big scores from the super sharp players from round one and hope to see many new players as Round 2 commences!
Thanks one & all for reading & playing!
