That Thai actress link was so hard to figure out!!!

[Achilles]

But good job finding a shorter track from Huey Lewis

[MojoComics]

Yeah, I've noticed it's a lot more difficult when you don't immediately 'recognize' anyone, but that's what makes it fun!

Thanks, Cassandra Peterson should be a bit easier I think.

POINTS!

 

What do you guys think about a point system to make it more interesting?

 

This awards points for solving and additional points for SL6 through SL1.

 

 

 

Here's what I came up with for the first 20 submissions.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

[MojoComics]

Wow, that's awesome; the only thing I would suggest would be to adjust for changes in SL. For instance, my Huey Lewis solve was beaten by Dr. Chaos, so I would suggest he get points for his solve and I get the points removed. If you *really* want to make it interesting he could also get the points I lost. That would add more weight to quality answers instead of just quick answers
