The NSM Guess-That-Melody Quiz!

[Latios212]

Oh wait... I recognized the game for 11 and 14 and messaged you as such but neglected to go search for the actual titles. Oops

What he said!

Oh, Bobby and Inkling, glad you're considering participating. Ok, so uh, generally, there will be a Dropbox folder or something with files. In my case, they're MP3's. When it's anyone else, they will be MUS, MIDI, and PDF files. Listen to the files and identify the songs. You can guess however many or however few you'd like. Say you thought number #12 was Dire, Dire Docks (not sure why you'd guess that, that's pretty far off), you'd Forum PM the host (in this case, me) with your guess, something like "12. Super Mario 64 - Dire, Dire Docks". The format doesn't particularly matter though. You can guess in several waves if you'd like, but (at least with mine) you can only guess once for each melody. I really hope I explained that well. Feel free to ask questions if I didn't.

Nope, sounds pretty straightforward to me. 👍
Can't wait for the next one. Speaking of which... when is the next one?

What can I say? I'm just a sly dog.

I know a certain someone that might have had something to say about this.

Hehe, I wonder who

[Dekkadeci]

Shoot, if I only remembered that I did play Big Brain Academy, I would have raided its OST for the answer to 14 because all I remembered was that 14 was from a brain-training video game I had played at one point.

Ooh. Big Brain Academy is me and my mom's favorite brain training game.

I thought you'd like that, lol.

Hosting one of these sounds fun too. I couldn't seem to find anything in the OP or next couple of pages on how to do that though. Also what host entails in the first place. (As in, what exactly the host does.)

[Splatoon Inkling]

I understand it now.

I find myself partially unable to answer this because, well, I don't actually know how they do it. It appears they find the melodies they want from the existing sheets and put them all in one, but I honestly don't know. I'd tell you how I do it, but I'm not exactly sure if everyone is totally on board with my way yet. It's still in it's testing phase.

Do you have to use songs that are on site?

Yeah, that or the PA threads, unless you want to arrange the melodies on your own. (Again, I presume. I'm not exactly sure.)
