Songfight Trivia!

[j$]

I wouldn't swear to it, but I've got to be near enough to the top of that list - if we're including collabs.

And ps for the fight that I wasn't in (mentioned a page or two back) that's only because someone at the time told me it would be bad form to break #'s 25(?) song streak.

Yeah, that sounds more or less how I remember it - a lot of people came right up to the edge but didn't want to disrespect #, but then WreckdoM came along.

I count myself at about 16 different names I've entered under (including collabs). I am guessing a few people, including J$ would beat that.

Fair enough. I (mis)remembered you breaking that record because you didn't know the tradition.

[jack]

well, in fairness to wreckdom, they didn't know they weren't supposed to break the record, and i'm not even sure they knew it when they did. i recall them feeling kind of bad about it when they found out.

not to discredit their bad boy rep.......

[jack]

ok, here's one that might be kind of easy for some of you, but not impossible to find out for anyone.

cookie for Albatross.

Q: Okay, everyone knows Jim Tyrrell was crowned "n00b of the month" for February, 2004. Who created that title and announced its winner?

[Märk]

Gotta be blue.

[fluffy]

Or Erik (15-16 puzzle)

[JonPorobil]

oh jeeze I know that one but I forget his name. but he was at High & Dry in Santa Cruz

Ken Flagg?

[edit] yeah Ken Flagg, final answer

Follow-up:
Under what name did Ken Flagg make his Songfight debut?

[fluffy]

Melody Generator? I know that was also him but I don't know if that was his first band name.

[JonPorobil]

Well, to the best of my knowledge, that was the first name KF submitted to Songfight under.

Yet another cookie for fluffy!

[jack]

blue did start the NOTM.

ok, here's one. spud, you can't answer.

octofest was held once for octothorpe. what was the reason behind octofest?

extra half cookie bonus: what is mad dog's original octothorpe name?

[fluffy]

Octofest was because their studio (a rat-infested shed on the lot which is now the site of Spud's awesome house) got broken into and most of their equipment was stolen.

Mad Dog is the artist formerly known as "Bro."

[JonPorobil]

I have no idea what the answer to this is, but:

Who has entered under the most different bandnames?

Probably drew, although collabs muddy the waters on that one.

Well, if you count "Jon Eric," plus all my pseudonyms, plus all my collaboration band names, I've got 27 28 (28 29 when the new fight goes up; my entry will be "Jon Eric & Friends"). Can anyone beat that?

Solo, I've only ever used five names: Jon Eric, Jo Neric, Big Mistake, The Harmonica, and MC Baccarat.

(EDIT: Added one because I forgot about "Jon Eric sings Ross Durand")

[Eric Y.]

Gotta be blue.

Or Erik (15-16 puzzle)

blue did start the NOTM.

Although "n00b" was typically Blue's word, and Erik was long known as the Song Fight! Welcome Wagon ("please be awesome!"), neither of these is the answer I was looking for. Unless my memory is faulty.........

[fluffy]

Well 15-16 was the backup answer (which was more an issue of attitude, as the "welcome wagon" thing started much much later) but I was pretty sure it was Blue too.

Was it drewtetz or something else completely left-field?

[fluffy]

Well, if you count "Jon Eric," plus all my pseudonyms, plus all my collaboration band names, I've got 27 (28 when the new fight goes up; my entry will be "Jon Eric & Friends"). Can anyone beat that?

Solo, I've only ever used five names: Jon Eric, Jo Neric, Big Mistake, The Harmonica, and MC Baccarat.

For collaborations that MAY be a win but I'd find it a lot more interesting to find the winner for solo names. I am pretty sure drew wins it - he had something like 15 (more if you count It's Charging).
