Each of them identified 22 out of 25 lyrics correctly! Congrats to all three of you for an outstanding job!! And thanks to all for playing and keeping the oldies alive! [Scoring: As specified in the rules, each song title was worth 10 points and each artist was worth 10 points, with points deducted for an imperfect answer. In general, I didn't deduct points for minor spelling errors, after all, this isn't a spelling contest! However, to be fair to those who got the title/artist exactly right, I did deduct points for some imperfections. Points were deducted for not using an apostrophe where the official title contains it. e.g, "Sweet Talking Guy" instead of "Sweet Talkin' Guy". And points were deducted for some misspelled artists' names and/or song titles were I felt it was justified. Oh well, that's why there's a 20 point scale per lyric!] [Place] score Name Age No.on team [T1] 440 HT- Howard Teitelbaum 32 1 [T1] 440 D2- Dan Murphy 37 1 [ 3] 432 LE- Laura Eppright 26 1 [ 4] 370 RC- Ron and Sally Crandall 39 2 [ 5] 369 JK- John Kupec 32 1 [ 6] 337 PG- Paul Gosse 'n Janet 19 2 [ 7] 299 SG- Steve Goldman 32 1 [ 8] 279 RS- Rick Schubert, Dave Ewing, Matt Courtois 38,35,36 3 [ 9] 247 RK- Rich Kulawiec & Deb Smith -- 2 [10] 240 DM- Dave Mack 27 1 [11] 239 SM- Steve Meade 25 5 [12] 230 KS- Karen Springel & friends -- 3 [13] 130 DG- rebs, Terry, and grish mid 30's 3 [14] 120 CC- Charles Carraher 27 1 [15] 105 NN- The NCR Nomads -- 5 [16] 88 MM- Mike & Morris 40's 2 [17] 80 AH- Amy Lea Henrick 18 1 [18] 20 MO- MaryLynn Orzechowski 24 1 [19] 14 CB- Chris Bovitz 22 1 [20] 10 C2- Connie C. 38 1 The following table gives the individual scoring breakdown.
