Title: The NSM Guess-That-Melody Quiz!
Post by: LeviR.star on March 17, 2017, 08:47:02 PM
Triweekly Quiz Schedule v1.2 (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1I-ikAzyxuF-JHlRIBNMFKZRFto1phrlx-nLWIHW8TgY/edit#gid=0)

Hey, you! Yeah, you! Do you LOVE memorizing soundtracks? Are you a master at naming video game songs, even when only presented with the melody. Well, if any of these apply to you, THIS IS YOUR QUIZ! The goal of this somewhat biweekly quiz is to expand the knowledge of video game music for everyone, including myself.

Rules:

- You may list your guesses once per melody quiz
- If no one can list them all, make whoever had it the closest the winner
- When hosting a quiz, try limiting the melody count to 20, please
- "Can't" win? Keep trying! I won't favor any common winners!

Obscurity Levels (Most to least, 5-1)

Mega Man

Quote from: Dudeman on May 16, 2017, 01:10:11 PMOrder of obscurity from most to least:
Eastern-only release on an obscure console (Rockman & Forte 2)
Eastern-only release (Wily & Light's Rockboard)
Obscure localized release (The Power Battle/Fighters, Battle & Chase, The Wily Wars)
Localized release on a less popular console (GB Mega Man titles)
Everything else

Generally, it's a bad idea to go over level 3 with the Mega Man games. Try not to.

Here's the first one ever:

3.17.17 Melody Quiz.mus (https://www.dropbox.com/s/foinvu7oatn14ne/3.17.17%20Melody%20Quiz.mus?dl=1)

Goodluck! ;)

Well, this could be fun. My one concern is what's to prevent someone from taking someone else's answer if that person knows one of the melodies and the answerer doesn't? I'd suggest PM's, maybe?

Chat with Levi about the possibility of co-hosting, set up a schedule for different days of the week? (Just a suggestion.)

For this round I was only able to get the first one (and the fifth one, but I recommended that to Levi).

I know for a fact that one of these isn't in the key I'm familiar with so it's possible.

ALSO PLEASE TELL ME WHAT #3 IS I'M SO CLOSE BUT I CAN'T REMEMBER

#2 has 3 different variations in the game, but they all have the exact same melody line, with the exception of key and tempo variations. This is the most commonly recognized and slowest of the versions. This is an exact transcription of that version.
And your guess for the series was wrong.

I didn't recognize anything in the first melody quiz, and so far, I'm predicting I'll only get one of the songs in the current quiz correct.

Should I submit very partial guesses, anyway?

Nah, answers now.

Would you look at that folks, we have a 3-way tie. (How did this even happen)
I think I misjudged the difficulty. Expect it to be a little different next time I do it, and probably a few more Nintendo songs.

Anyway, our tied people winners are:
MSF
Dudeman
Yug Guy

The songs:
#1 DANGANRONPA (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JeitvjG-dgI) (Otherwise known as the main theme of said game) 1 Strangely enough, despite being the least popular song on the list, it was the 2nd most guessed.
#2 Song of the Ancients (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V1CjxQXXA7o) - NieR 1 No, this is not Gumshoe's theme, despite the similarities. No one guessed it. Oops.
#3 Lightning Battle (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uxnc2eoPjSs) - Kid Icarus: Uprising 1 All but one contestant guessed this correctly.
#4 RULES OF NATURE (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N3472Q6kvg0) - Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance  Only Dudeman knew this song. (Note: melody taken from the chorus at 1:06)
#5 Light of Nibel (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kN_LvY97Rco) - Ori and the Blind Forest - A little surprised no one got this one.

Feel free to PM LeviR.star about hosting a round--I have, and I'm hosting on April 5-8!

I may as well drop the hint right now that exactly one of the songs I picked is from a game where I suspect I'm the only one on this forum to have ever played it.
Can I also allow people to guess as many times as they want?

Howdy! Let's get right to it, shall we?

Melody Guessing Contest
Round 3 - MUS (https://www.dropbox.com/s/op8iqfdlg9go4gk/Levis%20Quiz%20Round%203.mus?dl=1) - MIDI (https://www.dropbox.com/s/xzwaw0q216n7ixi/Levis%20Quiz%20Round%203.mid?dl=1) - PDF (https://www.dropbox.com/s/lwp8zj0kz05jn9x/Levis%20Quiz%20Round%203.pdf?dl=1)

Small disclaimer - the fermatas cause a bit of slowdown during the last measure of each melody: this is not indicative of the actual song. It's just a side effect that I couldn't figure out how to fix.

Anyways, I'll leave you with one hint to get you guys started: Every song on this list has been from a game published on a Nintendo console. Hopefully this makes it a bit more accessible to the average user on this site (this is NinSheetMusic, after all).

And with that, good luck!

"Published on a Nintendo console" =/= Nintendo IP

EDIT: I'll join the increasing crowd of people who'll say "I don't know any of these." I do want to point out that each of the melodies this time around are only four measures long, as opposed to the last two sheets with segments that were longer than that.

In Finale 2014 (and likely the full 2012 version too), you can just go to Playback Settings -> HP Preferences -> Tempo Variations

Quote from: Dudeman on March 29, 2017, 01:33:21 PMEDIT: I do want to point out that each of the melodies this time around are only four measures long, as opposed to the last two sheets with segments that were longer than that.
Yeah... I was hoping 4 measures would be enough this time around, since I was hoping this would be easier than the last one. But, given that most of you seem to be having some difficulty with this one, I've upped it from 4-measure phrases to 8-measure phrases. The links from my original post should lead to the new version. Sorry about that :-\

Thanks for the extra measures; I now recognize #4! I knew I heard it before, but it wasn't until you gave the extra measures that I remembered where it came from. (I played the hell out of that game when I was little)

Also, I swear I've heard #1 before...

#3 rings a bell somewhere for me, but I can't put my finger on which series it's from at all.

In the meantime, in my round, I have two 4-bar melodies, one 5-bar melody, one 6-bar melody, and one 8-bar melody. I'm expecting the shorter melodies to be more recognizable than the longer ones.

All the songs in my round have 8 measures. Sometimes OCD comes in handy.

Also, if you've already sent me guesses, but want to send any additional ones, just reply to your original PM with your additional guesses before time runs out.

I don't really care when the results come out. It's just I don't want to wait until three tomorrow to put mine up because I already know I'll forget if I have to wait that long. My memory is horrible. That's why I try to get things done immediately. For example, I didn't judge the arrangement contest immediately and forgot. Luckily, I remembered before it was too late, but it was over a week before I remembered.

Actually when something happens to you it doesn't mean it already happened to me, it means it happened at a later time of day for me. Same goes the other way. You don't live in my past, but you can (sort of) affect my "past" which in turn directly and immediately affects my present existence, without altering my perception of the "past".

Not to complain that I didn't get it or anything, but I feel like I should point out the importance of correct note durations in addition to pitches here when hosting this game; the melody was written with no rests in the first four measures, falsely suggesting something of a legato feel with no breaks between the notes, which doesn't fit the original. Just a heads up for hosts in the future.

Maybe I'm just bad at this game. Lol when I host I will definitely try to use games that I feel like... more people have played.

Yeah, that's why I didn't recognize it until he added in the four extra measures. :P

And Maelstrom, I say yours were way more obscure than Yug's. Actually I don't know, but at least I've heard more about Yug's games than yours (but that's probably cuz I stick to Nintendo systems)

I figured out #2 by guessing what game it was from, looking it up online, and finding out I was right on the first try. xP (I guess I may have heard it before, but I wouldn't know where, because I've never even come close to that game...)

Also, trying to recall if I've heard #5 before...

'scuse me.

Right here is the current schedule. Each quiz date the previous quiz host will post the results and answers from their quiz. Each quiz date the new host will post their .midis, .muses, and .pdfs, if possible. If you have signed up to make a quiz but are not on this schedule, please speak up.

Due to my work schedule, I can't really post anytime else, and I don't want to log into anything other than work-related websites during work.

By the way, I confirm that the schedule link works for me.

I like Bar 16 the best in NOC's. I don't care that the harmonies in his sheet are throwing me off.

7:30-8:00 AM MDT is 9:30-10:00 AM EDT (note the D for Daylight Savings in both). It's also 8:30-9:00 AM EST (note the S for Standard here).

6:00-11:00 PM MDT, likewise, is 8:00 PM-1:00 AM EDT and 7:00 PM-12:00 AM EST.

I'd rather be tallying winners on the spot on Wed., Apr. 5 evening, as I intend on responding to PM's throughout the evening with "Correct"s and "Incorrect"s, and if I post in the morning, I'll have to cut off entries at night before I go to bed (so probably around 10:30 PM MDT = 1:30 AM EDT = 12:30 AM EST).

Here's my Guess-The-Song Quiz:
[PDF] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZUkh6bnpfY2xzaEE) | [MIDI] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZbDRuSmNhaG40TEE) | [MUS] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZR0xhSk5IMGtaSWs) | [MSCZ] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZTnpMY0NrUGJiM0k)

The MUS is readable in Finale, including Finale Notepad. The MSCZ is readable in Musescore. All other files are based on the original MSCZ, not the MUS--this explains why the PDF doesn't look like the MUS.

Between each melody is a whole rest. This helps MIDI-listeners play along.

You may PM me as many guesses as you want for each melody (I would prefer that you PM me one guess per melody at a time, though). Guesses should contain the title of the song (or best known use, such as "Mini-boss theme") as well as its game of origin. I will PM "Correct" or "Incorrect" for each guess. Your correct guesses override your incorrect ones. You can only get one correct answer per melody. Unsubmitted guesses for a melody are counted as incorrect at the deadline. (This means that you may submit partial lists of guesses that don't contain one guess for each melody.)

You can PM answers to me until Wednesday, Apr. 5 at 10:00 PM MDT (a.k.a. Thursday, Apr. 6 5:00 AM forum default time). I will not count any submissions made after that time, as I'll be too busy tallying results.

Results will be posted on Wednesday, Apr. 5 between 10:00-11:00 PM MDT (hopefully closer to the former). Results include each answer in order, YouTube videos for each answer, all users tied for the most correct answers, and how many answers each such user got correct.

I'm fine with Latios212 posting the next Guess-The-Song Quiz anytime on Wednesday, Apr. 5, regardless of whether I've posted the answers yet.

Five examples of acceptable guesses for a melody (these aren't comprehensive format-wise, but please PM me something along those lines)--note that all examples are incorrect, even though I'd accept each game name as legitimate (note that the fourth example's game name is technically misspelled):

Guidelines for answering, how the melodies are transcribed, and what counts as a correct answer:

I'm fine with Latios212 posting the next Guess-The-Song Quiz anytime on Wednesday, Apr. 5, regardless of whether I've posted the answers yet.

Five examples of acceptable guesses for a melody (these aren't comprehensive format-wise, but please PM me something along those lines)--note that all examples are incorrect, even though I'd accept each game name as legitimate (note that the fourth example's game name is technically misspelled):
  • Under My Control: "Kirby's Return to Dream Land"
  • "Thumbs Up!" Blue Dragon
  • Galaxy Fantasy - Mega Man 9
  • Ridley's Boss Theme, Metroid Other M
  • First overworld theme of Shovel Knight

Guidelines for answering, how the melodies are transcribed, and what counts as a correct answer:
  • If I were to write full transcriptions of the pieces each melody belongs to, the contents of each file have the notes, key signatures, and time signatures I would use.
  • ...Well, except for Melody 5. I'm not 100% certain I would use those key signatures at that point. But I would use those notes and that time signature!
  • All tempos are approximate.
  • Like with several Guess-The-Song Quizzes before it, there are no dynamic markings. I'm a bit too lazy to retrieve those accurately right now.
  • I will listen to the songs of each guess you make. If I find the exact melody in your song-guess at roughly the tempo in my quiz, I will mark it as correct.
  • I mark correct, unambiguous titles of songs as correct (of course!). "Unambiguous" is defined as me being able to determine the exact song with the title alone. If I find multiple songs with that title, and you provide a game where the exact melody does not play in that game's version of the song (or you provide no game at all), I will mark your guess as incorrect. Otherwise, if I find multiple songs with that title, and you provide a game where the exact melody does play in that game's version, I will mark your guess as correct. I may be generous and mark your guess as correct if you provide a correct, unambiguous title and an incorrect game (or no game at all), as long as I could find only one song with that title. But don't count on it.
  • If you provide a correct game of origin and a correct best known use in that game, I will mark your guess as correct. Examples of "best known use" are provided in the last two example guesses above--specifically, the "Ridley's Boss Theme" and "First overworld theme" excerpts.
  • If multiple songs match the game of origin and the best known use, I may ask you to be more specific. For example, I may PM you to be more specific if I receive a guess like "Final boss theme of Final Fantasy VII" (which, by the way, is incorrect), as that final boss has multiple themes. If I do not receive a more specific answer by the deadline, I will mark your guess as incorrect.
  • Alternately, if the song title, game of origin, and/or best known use are incorrect, even if one or more of them are ambiguous, I may mark your answer as incorrect instead. (This means that I may PM you back with "Incorrect" for your "Final boss theme of Final Fantasy VII" guess instead.)
  • All guesses containing only a video game name and no song title or best known use are marked as incorrect. Please don't try guesses like "Plants vs. Zombies 2" without specifying which song you mean.
  • Hint: Do not guess any of the "Super Smash Bros." games as the game of origin of any melody. I will ask you to provide the real game of origin of each guess containing a game in that series only. I may still mark the guess as correct at the deadline if you provide me the correct title of the song (not just its best known use such as "Ganon's boss theme", as multiple games may contain the relevant character or scenario). If all you provide me is the best known use (e.g. "the Mario Circuit theme") and a Super Smash Bros. game by the deadline, I will mark your guess as incorrect.
  • Why am I picking on Super Smash Bros.? Hint: at least one melody is found in a song in a Super Smash Bros. game, but none of them were written for Super Smash Bros.
  • If all this is overwhelming, just figure that I'll mark your guesses as intuitively as possible. However, I need unambiguous answers--all ambiguous answers that stay ambiguous by the deadline will be treated as incorrect.

Number three is neither of the songs that it sounds like. Which is a bummer because it's the only one that sounds familiar to me.

You should see the length of the rules of the average Mafia game on Smogon's forums.

Quote from: SlowPokemon on April 03, 2017, 10:59:29 AMThis quiz is too hard and the selections are too short. Also the constant key changing within examples seems a bit frivolous. Just an opinion, I guess the pieces could actually change keys every two bars.
You're correct--the piece that Melody 4 comes from actually does change keys every two bars for several seconds at a time! (There's a hint for you.)

Melody 3 and Melody 5 are just situated around pivotal key changes within their respective pieces (although I'm not sure whether I'd even notate Melody 5's key change with a key signature change if I were to transcribe the full thing).

Quote from: Maelstrom on April 03, 2017, 12:42:01 PMAgreed. There's just not enough to actually recognize a song from. At least it doesn't suffer from rhythm problems....
Sadly, I'm one of those people who can recognize (or misfire on) a song from one bar. The bar doesn't even have to be 100% alike for me to effectively recognize it in another piece. Ever heard how much J.S. Bach's Little Fugue in G minor and "The Adventure Begins" from Kirby's Return to Dream Land sound alike at 0:25-0:27 (https://youtu.be/Bbox4oi6HjA?t=25s) (or 1:55-1:57 (https://youtu.be/Bbox4oi6HjA?t=1m55s) for an even greater resemblance) and 0:03-0:04 (https://youtu.be/vZBStYy7oSg?t=3s), respectively? I personally think that Jun Ishikawa and Hirokazu Ando may have been inspired by too much Bach there...

In case you've forgotten or you wanted to leave it to the last minute, you have until tonight at 10:00 PM MDT or Thursday, Apr. 6 at 5:00 AM forum default time to PM me your answers to my quiz:
[PDF] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZUkh6bnpfY2xzaEE) | [MIDI] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZbDRuSmNhaG40TEE) | [MUS] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZR0xhSk5IMGtaSWs) | [MSCZ] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZTnpMY0NrUGJiM0k)

If you think any melody comes from too many video game themes, simply PM me with all such themes (and the games they are from) and, even if it's not the song I intended, if I hear that precise melody (all notes must match in those relative note lengths, but tempo doesn't have to be an exact match) in any of your guesses, I'll mark it as correct.

Here are the answers to my Guess-the-Song quiz, with YouTube links in the song titles:

So, who won? Congratulations to mastersuperfan for getting 1 melody correct! Perhaps 3 out of 5 really were too obscure after all...

Quote from: NocturneOfShadow on April 05, 2017, 09:11:38 AMYeah teach if I get less than 50% can I remake this quiz
Since everyone got at most 1 melody correct, it's safe to say that you got less than 50% on this quiz. So, feel free to PM LeviR.star to host a round, and when your turn comes, you can select any cuts of these songs that you want! "Vs. Star Dream" is particularly good for extracting deceiving melodies. Be aware that more people may have listened to the full songs above by the time your turn comes, so more people may be wise and get even your cuts correct.

To be fair (although I never submitted an entry), a few of these did sound familiar to me. I think the problem was the tiny length and that a few could apply to multiple pieces within an OST. Looking squarely at you, #3, I knew you were a Robobot piece.

Signs your melody-recognition-game submission wasn't made with the players in mind:
Quote from: Dekkadeci on April 05, 2017, 09:38:56 PMThis was one of the melodies I expected fewer people to get,
[...]
Careful when spelling the name of this piece--"ST10: Roll Out, Wonderful 101!" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-pg74eAejzI) is a different song entirely.
[...]
To be fair, I did extract the high (counter?-)melody as Melody 2, so you might not have thought this was the true melody of this piece at that point.
[...]
Yup, I purposefully picked this melody to mislead you into picking the wrong song.
[...]
Here's the melody where I still suspect I'm the only user on this forum to have ever played its game.
[...]
Then again, I picked a section with an unintuitive harmonization, so that probably confused people.
Always keep in mind that this is intended to be a game. Games are meant to be fun. If you're designing the game so that nobody is likely to win, you're missing the point. The game-maker should never be the winner. In this case, if anyone played this game to win, it was Dekka.

Seems like I seriously overestimated the popularity of Bravely Second and how much the Super Smash Bros. games would have increased The Wonderful 101's exposure, then. I'm still very surprised nobody got Melody 2 correct or even made a guess for it, as Final Fantasy VII's boss theme is one of its most famous themes (YouTube results for remixes of it fill up at least two pages' worth of unique content) (https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=final+fantasy+vii+boss+remix), and Final Fantasy VII has produced plenty of immortal tunes such as "One-Winged Angel", "J-E-N-O-V-A", and its regular battle theme. I thought the least obscure song in THC's quiz (for example) was significantly more obscure than the least obscure song in mine, and I thought that Melody 3 would encourage people to guess (and guess again once I PM back that they're currently incorrect but they're on the right track).

Post by: Latios212 on April 05, 2017, 10:02:58 PM
A bit of advice since this is something I know a bit about...

When designing a trivia-type game it's important to keep your audience in mind. The job of the writer is to strike a balance between "oh man, this is way too easy" and "I have literally no clue, this is impossible".

Designing a good set is difficult, but it's too easy to fall into the trap of making the answers exclusive only to a certain group of people with some certain knowledge. It's important to be mindful of that. If the indicator of getting it correct is "has this person played this game?", then you're doing it wrong. The ideal melody would be recognizable but not easily identifiable.

Answers! As promised, no curveballs; everything is Nintendo IP, and well-known ones, at that.

#1
Boss Battle Song 2 - Super Smash Bros. Brawl


Timestamp: 0:02

Tabuu's battle theme. The one I thought would be most widely recognized.
[close]
#2
Battle! (Reshiram/Zekrom) - Pokémon Black and White


Timestamp: 0:18

Plays when battling Reshiram and Zekrom. Also valid: Kyurem's similar battle theme.

Timestamp: 1:44

Plays during the final boss battle of any route.
[close]
#4
Aquatic Race - Super Mario Galaxy


Timestamp: 0:40

Plays when racing in Loopdeeloop/Loopdeeswoop Galaxy. Also valid: Chimp Challenge from Super Mario Galaxy 2. Thought this one would be marginally harder than the others but I guess not lol.
[close]
#5
Nintendo 3DS eShop


Timestamp: 0:06

Good old eShop.

#1 should have triplet swing instead of dotted quavers (you know what I mean?), but it shouldn't make too much difference. Also, #3 is very obscure, just warning you (it's from a popular franchise though).

Can we all make sure that we're double checking our melodies against the original track and not just transcribing from memory or just kind of lazily by ear (or copying another arrangement)? There are so many discrepancies in this game so far and even one note that's incorrect can make a difference

I recognize #2 and #4, but I figure those two are the most obvious of the bunch.

Also I used #4 in your spin-off in my own round... guess I'll have to change that. xP

Battle! (Reshiram/Zekrom) - Pokémon Black and White

Plays when battling Reshiram and Zekrom. Also valid: Kyurem's similar battle theme.

I tried to transcribe what I heard from the original tracks, but I do apologise if some parts are inaccurate (For example, the trills are kinda unnecessary in #5, but I tried to represent the vibrato).

Quote from: mastersuperfan on April 08, 2017, 07:56:40 AMAlso I used #4 in your spin-off in my own round... guess I'll have to change that. xP
Haha sorry about that


EDIT: Oh I just realised the trills haven't been transferred properly into Finale. That would make #5 slightly more difficult. Please use the mid file for an accurate playback, sorry.

Copying and pasting Lat's answer format, because I'm lazy and I've forgotten about this and I don't have time

My actual round:
#1
Animal Crossing Wild World - Town Gate


Timestamp: 0:00

I expected more people to get this one, but yeah (I believe it's appeared in later games as well)
[close]
#2
Kid Icarus - Overworld theme


Timestamp: 0:03

As the name suggests, this is the overworld theme from Kid Icarus. I believe it was incorrectly titled in Brawl, but I might be mixing things up.
[close]
#3
Pokémon Shuffle - Stage BGM: Boss 2


Timestamp: 0:07

This was far too obscure. It plays while battling Mega Mewtwo Y, and a few other event stages. It's a pretty cool track, but it gets replaced by the Mega Evolution theme pretty quickly, unless you've deliberately not mega evolved
[close]
#4
Legends of Zelda: A Link To The Past - Dark World Mountain/Forest


Timestamp: 0:07

Also Death Mountain in ALBW. This was just a track I liked from brawl, so I just decided to throw it in here
[close]
#5
Rhythm Heaven Megamix - Karate Man Senior

https://m.youtube.com/watch?feature=youtu.be&v=qnttL9JyPjk
Timestamp: 0:53

This series isn't the most popular of games, so I wasn't expecting anyone to guess this anyway. I used the sped up part from the in-game version (which the soundtrack version does not contain, for some reason)
[close]
Mastersuperfan and Dudeman won with a score of 2!

Spinoff round:
#1
Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time/Darkness


Timestamp: 1:20

That 5/4 made this one a tad bit too obvious, but a cool track nonetheless
[close]
#2
HeartGold/SoulSilver - Route 47


Timestamp: 0:50

A new track composed for the remake of Gold/Silver. Very nice indeed.
[close]
#3
Sun/Moon - Poni Wilds


Timestamp: 0:10

This plays in most of Poni Island, so I accepted those locations as well. I'm not actually sure what the OST lists it as.
[close]
#4
Emerald - Battle! Frontier Brain


Timestamp: 0:19

My favourite battle theme. Go check out the ORAS remake of this theme if you want, that's also very nice
[close]
#5
Diamond/Pearl - Sunyshore City (Day)

Timestamp: 0:36

I'm running out of things to say.

Guesses

#2 - Kid Icarus: Sky World theme (lvl 2)
#3 - Phoenix Wright? (Never really played it)
#4 - LoZ A Link to The Past: Dark World
#5 - Super Monkey Ball vibe

P.S. Except for #2 and #4, they are just impressions.

Well, I suppose I might as well...

Anyways, here you all go! The next round of the Guess-That-Melody Quiz, this time with a whopping ten themes! All of these themes come from games that have been published on Nintendo systems, and most of them are also rather well-known and commonly played games (with the exception of one semi-obscure game, but I imagine some of you would still be able to get it).

PM me your answers, and I'll tell you if they're right or wrong. Feel free to update your guesses as many times as you want. You'll have to give the name of the game (any game is fine if it appears in multiple games) and either the name of the track, or the point at which it plays. Even if you know you won't win, I encourage you to guess anyways, since for each one I will be posting who got it right once the guessing period ends on Saturday.

Have fun!

They're obscure songs from well-known games from a popular franchise, or well-known songs from obscure games from a popular franchise.

So no, I don't think they're too obscure. The short length of each might be a challenge, though.

What I think I'll do on Thursday is update the file with extended versions, twice as long. Anyone who recognizes the themes now will get 1.5 points for each one, but after I change the files it'll be 1 point each. Does that sound fair?

(In other words, PM me any answers you have ASAP if you know any.)

One more update: across all participants, 8 out of the 10 themes have been guessed so far. 2 of them remain unknown.

If anyone has any more guesses, submit them soon. I'll probably be posting the updated versions at about 8:00 PM EST tomorrow, after which they'll all be worth 1 point instead of 1.5 points.

Also, E. Gadd, I'm curious to know where those themes are from. Post the solutions?

2. All of these games are on mobile devices and are considerably obscure, even for mobile games. This is why I considered it the ultimate challenge. Or super-annoyance, depending on how you look at it.

So we all win by default? :^)
Also, never played any of these. More of a console person (i.e. not phones or whatever).

Eh, sure. Why not? Everybody wins! :D

I mean, I like console games too, but certain mobile games are AMAZING!! (World of Goo is coming to the Switch, so that would be one less in the mobile sector for me)

The extended version is ready. Each theme has been doubled to tripled in length, and as a result some of them are significantly less obscure. I think this is how I'll do it:

If you want to see the extended version, PM me on NSM or somewhere else (i.e. Skype) and I'll send you the link to the Dropbox folder. I will not be posting it here currently, so that anyone who hasn't guessed yet or still wants more time doesn't have to lose the extra 0.5 points per melody.

Results and answers will be out at 2:00 PM EST (two and a half hours) unless the person next in line wants me to do it earlier.

I don't think the extensions helped anyone... rip.

Sorry. You scheduled me for the same day as my recital and I really just kind of didn't do the Internet that day or the weekend before. Anyway I made this like three weeks ago so sorry if any of the pieces have been used already. This should be a mildly easy quiz that won't stump too many people (you guys maybe need to chill with the difficulty level).

I recognize #2, #3, and #5. #4 is vaguely familiar, and I have no idea for #1.

Now that I listen to it some more, I think I know what game #4 is from...

For one of the ones I recognize, I played the game up to the first level with that music and then quit. And for one of the other ones I recognize, I played the game for the first time two days ago.

Title: Re: LeviR.star's Somewhat Triweekly Guess-That-Melody Quiz!
Post by: SlowPokemon on April 22, 2017, 09:12:30 AM
Aaaand the answers!
Spoiler
1. Mario Party Advance -- "Title Screen"
No one guessed this correctly. It's either too obscure or I'm just too old for you guys.

2. Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon -- "A Sticky Situation"
Imagine my irritation when, after I've already created this quiz, this song is being arranged and submitted on the forums. I figured it would be in everyone's heads after that, but not everyone got it right away. Meh.

3. Pokémon Black 2 / White 2 -- "Battle! (Colress)"
I was sure this would be a tough and quirky one for people to guess too, but imagine how great I felt when this track was used in another person's quiz. Sigh. I'm never doing one of these quizzes that far in advance anymore (though to be fair it was before the schedule was created).

4. The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask -- "Majora's Theme"
Again, I thought this would be super easy, but a certain Member who Shall be Furious did not get it. He listed "Despair Syndrome" from Danganronpa, which does carry the same first three pitches, but bears no resemblance outside of that. Dudeman originally submitted this as "Skull Kid's Theme" which I would have accepted but isn't quite correct--even though it plays when Skull Kid shows up, it's actually the theme for Majora and the mask, as evidenced by its appearance in the three battle tracks for the final boss and a few other tracks. Dudeman later corrected his mistake.

5. Yoshi's Woolly World -- "Yarn Yoshi Takes Shape!" (as it's called in game) or "Main Theme" (as it's called in Super Smash Bros. for Wii U and a Nintendo DS home menu theme)
Again, I thought this would be fairly easy, and most people did get it.

The winner is Dudeman, with four out of five, and the loser is Maelstrom, with one out of five. Congratulations to you both!

I'll go with too obscure. I forgot there even was a mario party game for the GBA, and, even then, I can't remember a single mario party song off the top of my head. Imo, they're not that memorable.

Sometimes a quick youtube search can be a diagnostic. I did one for that song and the first result had <250 views. Still, it helps to know the audience, as a high hit count =/= high recognition, as was the case with my list.

Post by: WaluigiTime64 on April 24, 2017, 02:01:03 PM
Damn I was 3 seconds late.

Alright, so answers time now. Or something.

The Answers

Melody #1
Yoshi Star Galaxy - Super Mario Galaxy 2

The second galaxy theme of the game. I was trying to be really easy with this one, and it showed. 4 people got this one.
[close]
Melody #2
Beloved Tomboyish Girl/Beloved Tomboyish Daughter/Tomboyish Girl in Love/Adventure of a Lovestruck Tomboy - Multiple Touhou Games (EoSD, PoFV, UNL)

This stage 2 boss theme has appeared quite a bit in the series, but the actual reason I chose it of all Touhou songs was because it would be much easier than other ones (it's a meme lol). 2 people got this one.
[close]
Melody #3
Glitter Gulch Mine - Banjo Tooie

The second level in the game. Somehow literally no one got this.
[close]
Melody #4
Dr Wily Stage 2 - Mega Man 2

Lol I don't like this song, but if I put in Dr Wily Stage 1, everyone would've gotten it. Unlike what Dudeman predicted 2 people got this.
[close]
Melody #5
Chemical Plant Zone - Sonic the Hedgehog 2

The second zone in the game, and a more iconic song. Personally I actually know very little about early Sonic titles, but I knew this. 2 people got this.
[close]


And the winner is:
Dudeman. With a score of 3/5. Congratulations. Or something.
[close]


To be honest, I was really surprised by just how spread out the answers were. You had some people guessing #1 and #5, without knowing a few others, and other people only being able to guess #2 (this happened twice). I still find it strange that no one got #3.

This quiz was thematic, and the theme was "2".

Those were borderline too obvious and didn't quite fit the theme. Then again, I could've picked really difficult sections from either of those (like the chorus of Bad Apple!!, which not many people know).

Anyway, Imma get the next round going once I sort through my Dropbox trying to find which folder I saved it in. In the meantime, have this image of the random shit I have in there.

Here's the next round! This time, there's 10 melodic snippets, just as a social experiment. Everything's from a Nintendo game, and I *hope* nothing should be too obscure. The second half is supposed to be easier than the first half. Anyway, go for it!

Here's hoping the dropbox link works!

So uh... when I tried playing your .mus file, it unexpectedly closed Finale. Has anyone else had this problem? Otherwise, I recognize 6 of  the melodies, with 2 sounding vaguely familiar.

Also Levi, since the queue of judges are almost through, are you going to start taking a second round of judges? Also maybe put the schedule in the OP so we know when the judges are supposed to go? Also, perhaps changing the format of the schedule to make a bit more sense? With proper dates?

From now on, if you're a quiz host, try a little variety. Don't include a remix of another melody in the same quiz. That way, it's too easy.

Here it is, I tried to get a good mix of games. Not all of the games are from Nintendo.

Dropbox: PL's Melody Quiz (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/18g09oxppul60w9/AADFKSOdqmhp3O_X1Q5v2QC5a?dl=0)

Here are some things to consider.
Spoiler
- Each song is worth 1 point if correctly guessed
- Similar song from another franchise .5
- Same franchise similar/remixed song .75
- Same franchise same song wrong game .9
- All songs are from their first occurrence within their respective franchise

Can you guess the theme that I focused on?

I couldn't get the pedal dynamics to work correctly so #7 doesn't sound exactly like it should. I fixed it in the midi though.

Good Luck!

Great--my thinking process when I go track-hunting for these Guess-the-Song Quizzes is like "SELECT name FROM songs WHERE style LIKE [melody 1].style" (this isn't proper SQL, but it's easier to grok).

Some thoughts: I tried to make a quiz where the average score would be above half. Looks like it worked.
In spite of some of the music chosen being the most popular in its series, none of the melodies had a perfect score. That was to be expected, but even so, I think y'all did a good job. Also, someone might be hitting themselves for not recognizing something in particular...

Dude and Mael, I hope you both realize that you could've gotten #1 just by googling "13/8 time signature."

(Not that I had to do that because I've played the game and listen to that track on a regular basis because of that badass time signature)

Post by: PetrifiedLasagna on April 26, 2017, 10:35:25 PM
I only recognized #8 from Insig's, because I simply adore that thilling, slightly swingy tune.

The funny thing about #6 is that I literally went through Kirby's Adventure searching for a song to play... And I listened to that song. As for #1 I have replayed that game almost as many times as there are Mario Karts, and I did not recognize it.

Congrats on your soundtrack mastery.

I could say the same for Metroid which need to play Prime 2/3, and Other M (basically the newest ones).


Also, I wanted to quickly clarify that unless I sent a message otherwise, everyone's first guesses are correct. Hope I didn't cause any confusion.

This is a post for the record to say that number 2 and number 10 are both very familiar and thus I can be that much more frustrated when the results come out.

I currently have 4, btw, and another half a point (I think) for a similar piece from another franchise.

Time for the results of the quiz. I was actually expecting a lot more guesses, but I guess this is further confirmation that I have an unusual/obscure taste in video games. I'll let you guys be the judge of that though.

#1
[MUL]Killer Instinct 2(a.k.a. Gold) - Tusk's Theme
0/9
[close]
#2
[SNES]Nosferatu - Main Theme
0/9 (This was probably the most obscure)
[close]
#3
[GC]Metroid Prime - Thardus Battle/Theme
0/9
[close]
#4
[SNES]Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island - Touch Fuzzy, Get Dizzy (Overworld)
6/9
[close]
#5
[PC]Orb - Main Theme
0/9
I thought this would get some considering, from my impressions anyway, that most of the users on this site are students(CoolMath.com) :P
[close]
#6
[MUL] Tower of Druaga - Floor Theme
2/9
[close]
#7
[MUL] Call Of Duty: Black Ops - Damned (Zombies menu/theme)
1/9
[close]
#8
[MUL] New Rally-X - Main Theme
3/9
[close]
#9
[PC] Undertale - Snowy
7/9
[close]
#10
[MUL] Earthworm Jim - New Junk City
0/9 (Is there no love for the grooviest worm ever :o)
[close]

And the winner is...
Dudeman, with 4.5 points!
[close]

The theme was...
Want to try and guess first?
The theme was centered around games that are often dubbed "timeless classics." These are the kinds of games that you discuss/share with your friends,  and sit at home (or go to the arcade) and have a great time with the homies.

Accepted phrases would have been the above mentioned "timeless classics," as well as "Games with Friends," and other similar phrases.

Dekkadeci got the closest guess with "old-school video games."

What did you guys think? I promise, the next time I host I will try to make it less obscure. I am glad I though in Undertale and Yoshi's Island. :P

Timeless classics have to be regularly played today to be considered timeless classics.
I think you edged my first quiz in obscurity. Can we please tone it down a little? If you doubt at least 2 people will get it, don't put it on.

Oh, and I love MP's OST to death and I didn't remember that song at all.

Post by: mastersuperfan on April 28, 2017, 06:08:48 PM
For them to be considered "timeless classics," it's probably better if I've actually heard of the game first...

Anyways, though, without further ado:

MSF ROUND 2 (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/rgi880m88m3kl5m/AABZwhT2R4XXSNP0m-HcK3x9a?dl=0)

This one has 15 melodies (yep, even more now), and I think it's a bit less obscure than my last one (you better get at least half of them Dudeman, you need to redeem yourself). All of these are from Nintendo games or from games published on Nintendo consoles.

As opposed to some of the recent hosts, I don't mind if the game you submit in your guess isn't the first game in which the melody appeared. This means that you can submit remixes in later games in the series or even from Smash; it doesn't make much of a difference since you can just search for the original track anyways.

When you PM me your guesses, I'll respond as soon as possible telling you how many you got right and, if any, which ones you got wrong.

Don't have fun! (As per Dudeman's order)

EDIT: One more thing: while the first 10 are relatively easy (at least, in my opinion), the last 5 are deliberately harder and less recognizable. Props to anyone who can get those ones (not that they're worth any more than the others).

I see your point. Of course we aren't going to play the same games everyday. Wolfenstein 3D could certainly be considered timeless since almost every beginner computer graphics course/article out there that references this, but I have not played it in years. Same for Undertale, which even though it seems insanely popular now will eventually become one of those gems that we remember/play from time to time (just like it's predecessor Earthbound/Mother).

But yeah...

For once, I actually know a good few of them. Buuuut... since I can't figure out the specific songs that a lot of the ones I know are, I'm not going to bother entering. I am however going to guess one just because I want to know if I have it right. The version in the quiz sounds off-key and doesn't end right, but it's too close not to be it.

Results will be posted about 24 hours from the time of this post. I will be posting a comprehensive list of the scores of each and every participant, as well as which tracks each member guessed correctly. If you barely recognize any and wish not to be shamed, I'm fine with you asking me to take you off the list.

(And THC, you won't be on the list since you specifically requested that your guess not count as participation in the round.)

EDIT: The next person can post theirs early tomorrow if they want, before I've posted my answers, if 24 hours from now is a bit too late.

Post by: mastersuperfan on May 01, 2017, 02:30:34 PM
It's time for the results!

We had a total of eight participants this round. Every melody was guessed at least once, and all but three were guessed by at least two members.


Answers:

#1 (3/8)
"With Mila's Divine Protection (Celica Map 1)" - Fire Emblem Gaiden



Timestamp: 0:00

This one's first up on the list since it's in Brawl and plays during the Subspace Emissary, so it's quite recognizable for a Fire Emblem tune.

Other Accepted Answers:

Super Smash Bros. Brawl remix (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XK8ITIpUypE)
Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadow of Valentia remix (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jr_Oz8XSCVA) (ECHOES HYPE)
[close]

#2 (3/8)
"Gloam Valley" - Super Paper Mario



Timestamp: 0:51

One of the catchiest tracks from Super Paper Mario (and I did happen to reference it earlier after THC posted the results of his quiz).
[close]

#3 (2/8)
"Parasailing Minigame" / "Mini-Game Parasail" - The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild



Timestamp: 0:07

I figured this would be one of the more obscure ones in the first ten, but given the popularity of BotW I knew it'd still get recognized by at least a few.
[close]

#4 (1/8)
"Radish Ruins" - Kirby and the Amazing Mirror



Timestamp: 0:03

Oops. I didn't think this one would be so hard to get, but it seems people haven't played this amazing game.

Other Accepted Answers:

"Moving Forwards (Radish Ruins)" from Kirby: Squeak Squad (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z4P2AjJwNBM)
"Dig and Dash" from Kirby and the Rainbow Curse (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=69Ylhi_ZnRw)
[close]

#5 (6/8)
"Rainbow Road" - Mario Kart: Double Dash!!



Timestamp: 0:33

Not too surprised to see this one as the most widely guessed, especially since it's also in Brawl.

Other Accepted Answers:

Super Smash Bros. Brawl version (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qQzqorx81pA)
[close]

#6 (3/8)
"Battle! Deoxys" - Pokémon FireRed & LeafGreen



Timestamp: 0:45

Though chances are most people didn't hear this track while playing FRLG, it starred in the Delta episode in ORAS, which has made it less obscure than it once was.

Other Accepted Answers:

Pokémon Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire version (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oq-wsxbhiSk)
[close]

#7 (2/8)
"Mini-Boss" - The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker (HD)



Timestamp: 0:11

I'm honestly a bit surprised that only two people got this one, since we have the arrangement project for this game, and also since this game is rather well-known for its music.
[close]

#8 (4/8)
"Vs. Ho-Oh" - Pokémon HeartGold & SoulSilver



Timestamp: 0:18

One of my favorite battle themes from one of my favorite games in the whole series. Since it wasn't in the original games, I thought this might have been a bit more obscure than the others, but thankfully I was proven wrong.

Other Accepted Answers:

Pokémon Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire version (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nD9NHjiEsYE)
[close]

#9 (2/8)
"Deku Palace" - The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask



Timestamp: 0:21

Also a little surprised at the obscurity this one, especially since there's also a Smooth McGroove acapella of it. (Then again, I might be the only one here who actually listens to him...)
[close]

#10 (4/8)
"Piranha Plant Slide" / "Piranha Plant Pipeway" - Mario Kart 7



Timestamp: 0:03

Pity the people who couldn't figure out that this was a Mario track.

One of the more stand-out themes in the game, and it also made a reappearance in Mario Kart 8. Originally, I had picked a selection from further into the track, but I decide to include the part with the Mario ditties to make people wonder whether or not they actually knew what it was...

Other Accepted Answers:

Mario Kart 8 remix (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nde5vtK0fSw) (which is awesome, by the way)
[close]


FINAL FIVE:

#11 (1/8)
"Battle! Battle Tree Boss" - Pokémon Sun & Moon



Timestamp: 1:14

Ahh, yes. This was quite an obscure one. Of course, if I'd picked really any other part of this track, it would've been rather obvious that it was from Pokémon. Even though the selection I picked was short, I figured it would still be enough to recognize it. Sure enough, one person got this one correct (and noted that they were quite proud of it as well).
[close]

#12 (1/8)
"Megaleg" - Super Mario Galaxy



Timestamp: 0:57

I knew this one would be the most obscure one as soon as I put it on the quiz. Indeed, I was correct; this was the last one to be guessed correctly. Ironic, isn't it, how the least known one is from the most played game?
[close]

#13 (3/8)
"Vs. Magolor" / "Under My Control" - Kirby's Return to Dream Land



Timestamp: 0:39

I originally had four measures but decided to extend it to eight. In the end, I suppose those extra measures weren't necessary.

In hindsight, this might have belonged in the first ten instead. Maybe it should have been swapped with #4...
[close]

#14 (2/8)
"Shampoodle" - Animal Crossing: City Folk / New Leaf



Timestamp: 0:03

At first I'd picked a different part of this track (starting at 0:20), but I figured this one was obscure enough already.

For the record, I've never actually heard this one in-game; I haven't played City Folk and I never unlocked Shampoodle in New Leaf. I purposely went hunting for an obscure Animal Crossing theme to put in the final five.
[close]

#15 (2/8)
"Remix 3" - Rhythm Heaven



Timestamp: 0:00

A very underrated gem in the DS library. Being my favorite music in the game, I had no choice but to use this one when adding in a Rhythm Heaven track.
[close]





And the winner is...
DUDEMAN!  (What a shocker!)

(https://www.ninsheetmusic.org/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FLjtmxUN.png&hash=a0559ec4fd54d424d8177d12058b5895a2bb500e)

Finally, I recognize 4 songs out of 10, or 40% of the songs in a quiz I didn't make! (Admittedly, it took me a while to figure out where one of the melodies was from. I had to figure out which series could get away with that instrumentation and melody combo.)

1 (6/8)
Credits Part 2 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D8Au3iIVq08) - Mario Kart Wii
The most correctly guessed by far. I also took Luigi Circuit as I didn't realize how close they were to each other.
[close]
2 (1/8)
Saturos Battle (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iEjqqUTz-us) - Golden Sun

[close]
5 (4/8)
Dangerous Dinner (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fMQHNR5mtjo) - Kirby's Return to Dreamland
Intended as one of the easier ones.

Surface of SR88 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fCIH943auRA) - Metroid II: Return of Samus
Also would have taken "Tunnel Theme." Congrats to Oli for being the only one to get it.

Ok, so this one may have been a bit too far into the song, but at least someone (MSF) got it
[close]
9 (1/8)
Dracula's Castle (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dh1qqLbuBww) - Castlevania: Symphony of the Night
Despite this being a classic, Yug Guy was the only one to recognize it.
[close]
10 (1/8)
Undersea Palace (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iSP-_hNQyYs) - Chrono Trigger

Hey guys, I'm preparing my quiz and I've hit a bit of a snag with the MUS. I'm a MuseScore guy and I'm smart enough to manipulate the XML file to fix any formatting weirdness in Notepad, but [REDACTED NUMBER] of my melodies is/are in swing, and for the sake of the participants, I'd like the MUS file to have proper swing playback. Barring just notating the passage(s) in question in triplets (which I can do if necessary but would prefer not to), is there any way to get Notepad to include swing playback?

Take a look at this. Hopefully, it should help you out. (http://usermanuals.musicxml.com/MusicXML/Content/EL-MusicXML-metronome-note.htm)

Heeeyyyyyy, it works! Thanks a bundle, Yug.

EDIT: Here's a fun tidbit. I did some research, and apparently, you can't put metronome markings like that naturally in MuseScore anymore. I looked through all the menus and such and scoured several forum questions on the MuseScore site. All of the answers there were some variation of "stick this jpeg in the file." After figuring out how to incorporate the coding that Yug linked me to, I tried importing that XML back into MuseScore instead of Notepad, and it just pooped out when it hit the measure with that metronome marking.
For once, Notepad can do something that MuseScore can't. I'm not sure how to handle this.

Dagnabbit, I thought Melody V sounded familiar, and I definitely guessed the game series right. I was unable to figure out which song it was in time, though.

(As an aside, this song is from the same series and has some similarities in melody. Stuff like this is probably how I can guess series but not song name:)

https://www.dropbox.com/sh/3gz1rpp4yqkhg75/AACGVM7i-kvzu92Cg9zELcdka?dl=0

There's 12 melodies this time, each with something that may invoke some sort of sentiment, if you've played the game before. That being said, if you guess a melody correctly, you can also guess why I added that melody, and I'll be sure to share the answers y'all give. The difficulty level might be slightly harder than my last one, but it shouldn't be too bad.

Go for it!

If you're talking about the one that's in 12/8, I decided to use 4/4 instead, since I felt the subdivisions of the melody when it descends was more important than the accompaniment. Plus, I've been playing Rachmaninoff's Prelude op. 32 no.10 a lot recently :P

Here I was, thinking that music from Kirby's Return to Dream Land wasn't as obscure as I initially thought.

...Sadly, I'm thinking of including KRTDL music in my third quiz or my possible 5-question extension to my current, second quiz. So far, my second quiz as it currently stands contains NO songs that originate from KRTDL (thankfully?), although one of them does appear in KRTDL (let the speculation begin).

Post by: InsigTurtle on May 08, 2017, 04:54:12 PM
What I've usually done, was to do equal proportions of Pokémon, Kirby, Mario, and Zelda, with some occasional extra tidbits thrown in, since those are the Elite 4 of Nintendo franchises. After all, this *is* NinSheetMusic, so it can't be unreasonable to include Nintendo melodies, right?

That being said, it is rather difficult to create a quiz where a majority of people can guess the majority of answers without it feeling "too easy". What makes it even harder, is that most people probably haven't played all the games represented in the quizzes, so even if you only pick easy ones from popular games, there's almost always going to be someone who cannot recognize a melody. That doesn't mean they're bad, it just means the quiz creators and players have had different video game experiences. And that's always gonna happen. So I always try to pick relatively popular games, in the hopes of making sure that everyone can at least guess one.

Anyway, here's the answers for the iQuiz 2: Electric Boogaloo

#1
Cave Theme/Underground Theme - Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island

#2
Route 10 - Pokémon Black/White

#7 - 5/8

#9 - 8/8
#10 - 3/8
#11 - 4/8
#12 - 1/8

Average guessed: 6.25/12
[close]

Honestly, I was expecting a higher average, but I suppose that's all fine and dandy. This time, I attempted to use melodies that evoked specific sentiments in those who've played those games.
But let's first go through some of the responses I got:
There's gameplay and story spoilers here!
Quote from: Yug_GuySomething about traumatic memories, right? Either a hard/broken level or boss fight, or an emotional story moment.

And Sammer's Kingdom because, well... because of that King Sammer
Quote from: Dudeman#1: I can only assume "Poochy Ain't Stupid" has something to do with its inclusion.
#2: It's a good piece on its own, but having not played Black or White, I have no idea what emotional connection it might have. Research says it's right before Victory Road so is that important?
#4: T R I G G E R E D
#5: Twitch Plays Pokémon, anyone?
#6: Epic as fuck, chill as fuck, what's not to like.
#7: Oh god, this music just perfectly complements the rain coming down right now--enemy theme
#9: I've never played the game and his villain status was spoiled long ago, so nothing to add here. ...except that this one is probably super obvious.
#11: "Kirby games are just for little kids"
#12: GOD DAMN THIS FREAKING PIECE IT'S THE ABSOLUTE EPITOME OF HOPELESS SORROW AND YOU'RE GONNA MAKE ME CRY AND I HAVEN'T EVEN PLAYED THE GAME
Quote from: DekkadeciMy guess for the sentiment invoked by each melody is frustration. Frustration that the boss betrayed our player characters, frustration that we haven't beaten the boss for the eight zillionth time in a row, frustration that we still haven't finished the game six months after we bought it...
Quote from: mastersuperfanAs for why you chose them, I don't know for #1, but #7 is a pretty sad theme (which I'd imagine would be more emotional to you in the case of nostalgia). The bigger overarching theme, however, seems to be that most of the tracks you used are themes that play near the end of the game, either in one of the final areas of the game or against the final boss (#2, #3, #5, #6, #8, #9, #10). Some of these, like #2, #6, and #8, have that epic YOU'RE AT THE END, YOU CAN DO IT vibe to them, although #3, #5, #9, and #10 have a more dark or menacing feel to them, which I suppose makes for a memorable and heart-pounding experience (I find #3 and #10 pretty nostalgic myself). Not sure if that's what you're looking for, but it's the best guess I've got.

So yes, in general, I tried to go with emotions such as anger, frustration, sadness, and nostalgia. Some of my thoughts:
There's more gameplay and story spoilers here!
For #1, I chose to go with the underground theme not only because of nostalgia, but because of this level (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SPjoxxaaP6o) (which a Youtube commenter aptly describes as a "very loooooooooooong piece of shit!"
#2 was mainly based off nostalgia. A good piece of music before the 6th gen. (Sorry, people who loved gen 6!)
I think Dekka described #3 better than I did, since I mainly chose it because of the pain in 100%ing it in hard mode
#4 -
Did you get all that?             
.   ►No
.      Yes
#5 also appears to be somewhat disliked because of its harmony, so I was hoping to mess with someone's delicate ears there. I failed.
#6 pops up in the last bit of Grandmaster Galaxy from Super Mario Galaxy 2 as well, which was my main thought. A moment of silence for everyone killed by a hammer bro in the last stretch of the perfect run.
I think Dudeman said everything I was thinking for #7. Same with Lat for #8. I couldn't quite convey its *wham* in a simple one-voice transcription, though.
Dekka also pretty much said all I was thinking for #9. It's also considered to be a somewhat disturbing boss, apparently? But not as much as #11.
I'm sorry I had to be a dirty NSM memer for #10. For the record, I was also considering Good Egg Galaxy from SMG for similar reasons. However, #10 also comes with the added bonus of the entire world ending and everyone dying! Nice!
#12 is trivial and the proof is left as an exercise for the reader. Except for the fact only one person got it. It does get very difficult to guess when all the harmony and orchestration is stripped away. If you wait for a couple more minutes, then even more will be stripped away. Or rather, everything will be destroyed.
[close]
I won't bother putting this in spoilers, because it shouldn't be a surprise that Dudeman and mastersuperfan won, both with 9/12. Good job, both of ya! Hopefully y'all (sorta) enjoyed it! I promise I won't try to relieve bad memories next time!

As of right now, 12/15 have been guessed but no one has a score of more than 6. Keep going! (Most of you, I'm pretty sure you should be able to get more.)

I'll also let slide that, predictably, Mario, Pokémon, Kirby, and Zelda are all represented either once or twice each.

Okay, guys, here's my pitch for why BS-X melodies should be excluded from future quizzes, apart from obscurity (because let's face it, obscurity is unavoidable in this game). When the Satellaview games were originally broadcast, they actually had a live orchestra playing the background music and live narration during gameplay. These recordings have been essentially lost to time, and so anything labeled as music from a BS-X title is either a recreation or files that were included in the game's ROM, which weren't played during the actual game. At least, that's how I understand it.

But for real nobody's going to know anything that's specifically from the Satellaview

Hmm, I figured you knew #10... Also, is it fair to say that many people have never played some of the games from these past quizzes, yet still knew what they were from? That's because we have YouTube. Watching a longplay may not be the same as playing the game, but it doesn't mean you can't learn a soundtrack from it or find enjoyment out of watching it.

Nope. If I know an OST and haven't played it, it's simply because I loved the OST. I never watch any sort of let's plays.

I only watch longplays and TASs. Anything else usually has an annoying commentary and I can't hear the music/sound effects over his/her annoying voice. Torkirby, though, is an exception.

Well, I think I'm allowed to say this: #10 certainly originated from a game that wasn't on the BS-X. Now, if he's only going to accept guesses from only that BS-X game (or whatever version he used), that's going to be somewhat of a problem.

While it is possible (I was certainly able to guess a few songs this way), it's probably best to assume this isn't the case. Most people's knowledge on soundtracks from games they haven't played are usually pretty scattered.

Also, you never actually said whether or not there were any BS-X games in this quiz. I'm pretty sure most of us would like a definitive answer.

Here's the results to my quiz, plus commentary. This quiz turned out to be a bit harder than I thought, although I think many people could have performed better. There were a lot of good instincts here that may or may not have led to a correct answer. Cue frustration:

#1
Battle! (Ghetsis) - Pokémon Black and White
Timestamp: 0:39 (recurring throughout)
Insig guessed this correctly.
Figured this would be a tricky one. The tritones make it quite distinctive, though.
Also acceptable: The BW2 version where this line is slightly more prominent.
Quote from: InsigTurtleoh no i know #1 for your quiz i think

#3
Main Theme - Nintendogs
Timestamp: 0:01
THC and mastersuperfan guessed this correctly.
Also acceptable: the bath theme. Expected Smash to refer maybe a couple of people, and indeed:

Was curious who would know this one. Apparently it sounding enough like a retro Mario credits theme is enough to go on.

#13
Star-Stealing Girl - Chrono Cross

No one people guessed this correctly :(
Chrono Cross isn't the most well-known thing out there, but I had a feeling someone would know this one. They just didn't get it....
Quote from: mastersuperfanoh god no I do remember this

#15
Tomorrow Hill - WarioWare: Smooth Moves
Timestamp: 0:41
No one guessed this correctly :(
I figured this one would be a stretch. With a quiz this long, it's impossible not to indulge in one or two :P Though...
Quote from: mastersuperfanI feel like #15 is being performed by that kind of weird children-sounding group of voices
Fun fact: This is a very clearly 4/4 song, but it's written in 5-bar phrases.

Lat is right; posting melodies from well-known games makes it too easy for everybody. By the time we teach them about new soundtracks, they'll be thanking us.

But there's no reason why you can't do both at once

After all I'm getting back into the CC OST thanks to Lat

Plus, there are plenty of relatively well-known games with awesome soundtracks that some people on here don't know well, and one of the best ways to get them to learn those soundtracks is to keep putting them on these quizzes *cough*RtD*cough*Dudeman*cough*Lat*cough* sorry I think I need to step outside and get some fresh air

I'm just having trouble deciding whether or not a game is "well-known" or "obscure", and I know I'll give away my answers if I ask for everyone's opinion on the obscurity of a game.

There's some bias; I can tell. Some people seem to like RPGs more, and others like to stick to one franchise.

From Lat's Book on Trivia Theory™:

To be clear, I was advocating for using familiar melodies, but making them difficult (which is tricky to do well). This way, people have the potential to score more, but may not, which is cause for all the fun (and frustration!). You want people to be thinking "oh man I know this but where is it from" and "dangit I should have gotten that!", not "well this doesn't sound familiar at all" and "now that I know what it is, I can confirm I never would have gotten this". In that vein, making the motif obvious but the iteration difficult is not a good idea either; there's no "eureka!" moment, just an "oh, I finally found it after searching through all these remixes".

Why does #6 sound like Emperor Palpatine's theme and #9 sound like it came from a Batman game?

(In the meantime, the only one I get is #3.)

Does using a familiar melody (say "That Person's Name Is"/"One-Winged Angel"/"ASGORE") but only using an excerpt from 2 or more minutes into the song count, especially when that melody isn't the first theme of that song?

Yo. I got a thing. Here's (https://www.dropbox.com/s/p1ulgd079vlc0ov/LeviR.star%27s%20Guess%20That%20Melody%20Quiz%20%28Again%29.mus?dl=1) the thing. Have a nice day.

Here's how this one's going to work. The first page is the standard quiz, and the second page is also a standard quiz, but a bit trickier. Considering one of these melodies is purely there so that no one can guess it, and another one is just being mean, the quiz will be marked out of 8 instead of 10. Those two mentioned will still be counted as 1 point each, meaning that if you're a super genius, you can get 10/8 (or 9/8 I guess). Most games were published by Nintendo and/or another company.

Shoot, the only one I get is #1b. Given its sheer brevity and speed, is that supposed to be one that's just being mean?

(Also, so far, nobody has stolen any of my melodies. The one who's gotten the closest so far is LeviR.star, who used a warped portion of one of the songs I've currently chosen...that's actually from a third song, so I'm safe.)

Post by: LeviR.star on May 13, 2017, 09:23:21 PM
Alright, here are the much-anticipated answers!

#1

Spoiler
[GBA] Super Mario Advance 4: Super Mario Bros. 3 - "World-e"


I submitted this sheet last year. Pretty catchy world map, if you ask me, even if it is 4 measures long.

Latios212 guessed this correctly.
[close]

#2

Spoiler
[GBA] Game & Watch Gallery 4 - "Title Screen"


One of those games where you can see all the crazy things Mario & co. do in a non-canon game. Towards the beginning sorta sounds like The Amazon from DuckTales. (Looking at you, Waluigi).

No one got this one...
[close]

#3

Spoiler
[PC] Undertale - "It's Showtime!"


This was my "easiest" one. Y'all complain when I put obscure songs and when I put songs from popular games. How am I supposed to know what's in-between?

Maelstrom, Latios212, Dekkadeci, mastersuperfan and Dudeman guessed this correctly. Jeez I made this one too easy.
[close]

#4

Spoiler
{JP} [NES] Wily & Right no RockBoard: That's Paradise - "Megalopolis"


This was arguably my most obscure one in this quiz. Also, as Dudeman promised, he would recognize any Mega Man song, EXCEPT --

Quote from: Dudeman on May 04, 2017, 11:09:49 AMAlthough I will throw in the caveat that I'm less likely to know something from Battle Network, Star Force, or Legends.

He now owes me a little something...

Quote from: Dudeman on May 04, 2017, 11:09:49 AM10 bucks, if memory serves.

I'll just accept 1,000 Wii Points; that will work best. :)

No one got this one... not even Dudeman.
[close]

#5

Spoiler
[N64] Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards - "Battle Among Friends: Waddle Dee"


I'd say Crystal Shards is a pretty well-known Kirby game, but this song is only heard once in the story mode. Adeline's fight theme started to overshadow this one following the release of Kirby: Triple Deluxe, due to it being used in Kirby Fighters, and remixed again for the same purpose in Kirby Fighters Deluxe.

No one got this one...
[close]

#6

Spoiler
[3DS] Paper Mario: Sticker Star - "Haunted Enigmansion"


Don't you guys dare complain about this melody just because it's from a game that wasn't the PMTTYD sequel everyone wanted. This is my favorite level in the game, and contains a wonderful tribute to Waltz of the Boos from Super Mario Galaxy. This game has great music.

No one got this one... and no, I did not accept Waltz of the Boos.
[close]

#7

Spoiler
[NES] Spelunker - "Stage Theme 1"


Ahh, Spelunker; one of the best-known non-Nintendo NES games. This theme is also quite catchy, and of course, the game is good, too. I suggest you guys try it out sometime. Also Siiva recently remixed this into Crash Man's theme so I hoped someone would get this.

No one got this one...
[close]

#8

Spoiler
[MUL] Bad Piggies - "Builder"


My favorite Angry Birds spinoff. When I was younger, I played the heck out of this game; hours and hours everyday. Puzzle/sandbox games can be quite addicting. If you have played this before, I'd be surprised that you didn't remember this one.

No one got this one... though, someone did say this sounded familiar to them... who was it?
[close]

#9

Spoiler
[GB] Kirby's Star Stacker - "Hard"


Kirby's most famous puzzle game. This song's SNES remix was also used in Patched Plains' "6EX" bonus stage in Kirby: Planet Robobot. Tut-tut, I thought you guys played that game only a year ago. Also it really sounds like Batman '66's theme.

No one got this one... and no, I did not accept Mr. Batty Twist.
[close]

#10

Spoiler
[BS-X] BS The Legend of Zelda - "Dungeon"


Alright, alright; I won't put any more Satellaview songs in my quizzes, jeez. Dudeman and mastersuperfan, however, were smart and efficient enough to do some research and find out exactly which version of the original The Legend of Zelda's Dungeon theme this was. Good for them.

mastersuperfan and Dudeman guessed this correctly.
[close]

Who is the winner? Let's see! *drum roll*

Spoiler
A three-way tie between Latios212, mastersuperfan and Dudeman! Congratulations!!

Welp, looks like I learned my lesson, huh? Don't worry, guys; the next quiz will be much, much easier. I'll just accept my 1,000 Wii Points via PM attached with a scratch-off code and be on my way

Yes, but not in a solution. It's an ion that will completely dissociate in solutions. Hence why HCl and NaCl both completely dissolve, provided the solution is not already saturated. Oh, and its electronegativity makes it much, much more likely to pair with other molecules than itself, even when it is in it's diatomic form.

That's a lousy restriction, and you shouldn't use it. I mean, if you did, you could include stuff from idk, Treasure Mathstorm, The Adventure of Zelda, Umineko, or Dragon Quest. These are all valid under your limitation, but are still bad choices because a limited number of people know them. Tailor your choices to what people on NSM know, not what's on the site or what's popular.

Nope. It's a Cl- ion. Besides, even if you evaporated the water, it'd react with something else instead of becoming a gas.

As I suspected; Lat was right.

Quote from: Maelstrom on May 13, 2017, 11:10:24 PMThis was stupid.
It just was. Yet again, someone has one upped me in obscure stuff.

Sorry, Maelstrom; we can't all have Mother 3 in our melody quizzes.

Quote from: Dudeman on May 13, 2017, 10:11:25 PMROCKBOARD DOESN'T COUNT, NOTHING JAPAN-ONLY COUNTS, HOW ARE WE SUPPOSED TO KNOW STUFF THAT WASN'T RELEASED IN THE WEST

Uhhh... the Internet? And fan translations? Just throwing that out there. Also, MOTHER 3

Anyway, Dudeman, you might as well explain some things. You weren't very specific when you made your bet, and you've only got yourself to blame. Of course, I would say Rockboard is awfully obscure (which is why I picked it), and that I'll ignore that. However, right now you should take the time to list all of the Mega Man games from any sub-series or spinoff you're sure you know every song, so that I know which games I can choose from to include a melody in my future quizzes. That means EVERY SONG in each game, got that? Be sure to be as specific as possible. The bet is still on.

Post by: Maelstrom on May 14, 2017, 10:55:00 AM
Mother 3 is the exception, not the rule. Besides, we've only had one japan-only song not from an obscure-a-thon. Granted, I did guess it, and we have an arrangement of it on the site. It wasn't purposely chosen to not be guessed, like yours was.

Wily Wars? Fair. Battle and Chase? Eeehh.... Any Mega Man GB title? Fair. ROCKBOARD!?!?! NOT FAIR. I have this massive feeling that not even you have touched that game. If you have actually played RockBoard, and can completely annihilate us in a quiz about it, then you can use it. If one of us put a RockBoard song in our quiz, could you have guessed it? Please consider this next time.

Also before you people call me a hypocrite for using two painfully obscure songs as well, I would like to point out that because of those two songs, my quiz is only counted out of the remaining total (8).

Quote from: Maelstrom on May 14, 2017, 08:31:25 AMThat's a lousy restriction, and you shouldn't use it. I mean, if you did, you could include stuff from idk, Treasure Mathstorm, The Adventure of Zelda, Umineko, or Dragon Quest. These are all valid under your limitation, but are still bad choices because a limited number of people know them. Tailor your choices to what people on NSM know, not what's on the site or what's popular.

edit: oops double post
You caught me--one of the songs in my current (second) quiz is from an obscure game that isn't from a popular series. With that being said, the song I picked DOES have a transcription on www.ninsheetmusic.org, and as far as I've researched, it was a meme back in the day.

With that being said, IMO, if a song is popular, I should be able to use it regardless of whether I find out that nobody else on NSM actually knows it. (For example, I'd think it's slightly embarrassing that nobody else on NSM would know a song that pulls at least 2 pages of remixes on YouTube results, has at least two remixes in Newgrounds, and appears in at least one "Video Games Live" concert.)

I do think it's cruel to use songs that only appear in games that are 2 or fewer months old, though (including from immensely popular series such as Pokemon).

You're thinking too hard. There should not be strict standards of what songs to select when writing. Like Maelstrom said, just write with your audience in mind and allow then to have fun.

Personally, I'd say that you can do whatever you want with your quiz, even if it's pretty much impossible for everyone. But if you do so, then you're going to have some frustration directed at you. It's your choice to either make a quiz that people will enjoy or a quiz people will detest, and of course, there will be consequences for both.


And the reaction was just showing how sodium chloride disassociates into its constituent ions, Na+ and Cl- when dissolved in water. The net charge on both sides of the equation is 0, and there's a Na and Cl on both sides of the equation, so it's balanced.

Funny you should mention that; I have played Rockboard. While it has great music and is responsible for introducing Reggae to the Classic series, it gets a little boring after a while.

But I'll try to be a little more sensible in the future.

Post by: WaluigiTime64 on May 16, 2017, 02:21:52 AM
Alrighty then! It's time for the results! A total of 11 people attempted.

First up: The songs:

#1
Moon - DuckTales:

An old classic. One of the most well-known NES pieces ever. I decided to only use the intro because of this. 5 people got this.
[close]
#2
World Map - Yoshi's New Island:

This is just a nice piece. Similar to the original Yoshi's Island, this song has several variants, so any general answer with the song was accepted. 3 people got this.
[close]
#3
Jungle Japes - Donkey Kong 64:

*desperate searching to find the original GilvaSunner upload* I figured this would be alright to add in. Can't go without a bit of swing. 2 people got this.
[close]
#4
Shy Guy Beach & Cheep Cheep Island - Mario Kart: Super Circuit:

Super chill. Unless you're like me and you play 150cc-Hard-AI-Frantic-Items on Mario Kart Wii. Special thanks to MSF for telling me about the triplets. Oops on my part. 7 people guessed this.
[close]
#5
Ever Grande City - Pokemon Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald Version:

I loved this song the moment I heard it when I first played the game, and it still holds up. 5 people got this.
[close]
#1b
Hightail Falls Galaxy - Super Mario Galaxy [OR] Athletic - Super Mario World:

One of the only songs that I could put only a single measure of, and still have people guess it. Not only did it work, but all 11 people got it. Honestly if you didn't get it that would be shameful.
[close]
#2b
Bad Apple!! - Touhou 4: Lotus Land Story:

*desperately searching for the original* This is one of the two brutal ones. The first melody is so iconic, that putting the original chorus instead was just mean. Naturally, only 1 person got this.
[close]
#3b
Flock Step - Rhythm Heaven Fever:

Only difficult in its slight obscurity, as well as the likelyhood that I of all people would use it. I love this song, and it's even better with the in-game sounds. 2 people got this.
[close]
#4b
Cloud Cuckooland - Banjo Tooie:

I used the really weird section to confuse people. One person actually guessed that it was related to Banjo Kazooie, but didn't research hard enough to find the song. Shockingly not one person got this.
[close]
#5b
Dust Field - Mega Man Soccer:

OK OK OK PLEASE LET ME GIVE REASONS AS TO WHY YOU SHOULDN'T LYNCH ME

Originally I picked this song because I felt like "Oh hey, Dudeman and LeviR.star sure know a lot about Mega Man." so I decided to see how much they knew about slightly obscure Classic Series soundtracks. I realised that such a silly thing shouldn't affect the entire quiz, so I decided to make it not count, so that the great majority who obviously wouldn't get it weren't affected. After I posted mine, Levi posted his answers. We all know how Dudeman responded to that. The fact that 10 bucks was on the line certainly didn't help anything, although it makes this one far tamer in comparison at least. Suddenly I felt really bad about that comment Dudeman left about me not putting any Mega Man songs in there. Oh gosh did the guilt pile up. Now, concerning its obscurity. I decided to pick Soccer because I noticed it had quite a few good songs, and overall seemed worth listening to, especially Dust Field, which is why I picked it. I just happen to like the song. I have this feeling that if I picked Elec Field or Wood Field one of them might've gotten it. Mega Man Soccer has had an official English release, and is generally put next to Mega Man: Battle and Chase in terms of obscurity, which is usually just a bit lower than Mega Man: The Wily Wars. Also can confirm that Mega Man Soccer is somewhat genuinely fun, although the chances of you winning are pretty slim unless you're really good at soccer games, so it is something worth looking into, unlike RockBoard, although it was rushed like hell. As clearly noted, neither Dudeman nor LeviR.star got this one, and obviously no one else got it either. As I decided to not include this song in the total, this song did not affect anyone's scores.

The Winner!
With 5/8, 4 PEOPLE TIED FOR FIRST. Absolutely incredible. Congratulations to Mastersuperfan, Dudeman, Yug_Guy and Luxray Spiral for achieving this (joint) victory.

I'm really actually not upset about this one. Mega Man Soccer was a fair choice, it got a Western release and, like you said, is on about the same level as Battle & Chase. I guess this is what I get for bragging about my musical prowess, since when I originally posted I was really only thinking about main series titles.
And that 10 dollars? ...I'll have to think about it.

Here's my second Guess-The-Song Quiz:
[PDF] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZLV9naG9jUlNOUXM) | [MIDI] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZOFRISmlKZDJ4RFE) | [MUS] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZVTZlN0Z1cEJrQ0U) | [MSCZ] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZMDNGOWhZeHdTazA)

The MUS is readable in Finale, including Finale Notepad. The MSCZ is readable in Musescore. All other files are based on the original MSCZ, not the MUS--this explains why the PDF doesn't look like the MUS.
The MUS may display and/or play back bugged. The MSCZ, PDF, and MIDI shouldn't.

You can PM answers to me until Saturday, May 20 at 1:00 PM MDT (a.k.a. Saturday, May 20 8:00 PM forum default time). I will not count any submissions made after that time, as I'll be too busy tallying results.

Just to clarify: We're supposed to avoid using music that has already been used in previous quizzes, right? Since there's one that I reallly want to add, but someone's already used it in one of their quizzes. And that makes me sadder than a sad panda.

In case you're wondering why I'm so adamant about using this one: I wanted to make a round that Anakin wouldn't like.

I think you're supposed to avoid all melodies that overlap with already-used melodies, but there are plenty of VGM songs that are so long that you can pick several excerpts from one and have some people treat them as if they're from different songs. I'm already locking in an excerpt of an already-used song for my next quiz--that's in a different time signature from the already-used melody.

Not at all! As long as you're not using the same exact part, I see no problem with using the same tracks.

If you want to keep it in, that's certainly fine. I personally don't want to do any repeats (which does become a bit problematic when I make so many big quizzes in advance), which is why I always complain about getting melodies "stolen." :P

(Maybe I should've kept in that selection I just posted here, since it was a pretty clever excerpt, but I always have plenty of backup tracks as replacements.)

Results will be posted shortly afterwards.

Some guidelines for answering, how the melodies are transcribed, and what counts as a correct answer:
  • When transcribing these songs, I prioritized OSTs over high-quality rips. Keep that in mind while guessing.
  • You may submit YouTube links/videos instead of game name-song name/best known use pairs.
  • All tempos are approximate.
  • Like last time, I will mark unambiguous songs with the right melody in the right key as correct. If your guess has the right melody in the wrong key, I will mark it as incorrect but PM back that you were close. You can freely guess again until the deadline. With that being said, the obvious choice should be the correct one for the most part.
  • I may not have gotten octave voicings correct in this quiz. If you think you've got the right song but it's off by an octave or two in parts, just guess that song anyway.
  • I had trouble transcribing #4, #7, the end of #9, #10, the end of #12, and #13. These melodies are less likely to be completely melodically and rhythmically accurate.
  • Hint: At least one melody is found in a song in a Super Smash Bros. game, but none of them were written for Super Smash Bros.
  • Hint: Exactly one melody is a remix of a piece of classical music. For that melody only, you may guess the name of the piece of classical music it's based on instead of the name of the song (or its best known use, or a YouTube video), but you must also guess which game it's from.
  • Hint: #14 has its last note cut off.

I'm going to busy for the rest of the day, so I'm gonna go ahead and post this now:

Melody Guessing Contest
"Two's Company" - MUS (https://www.dropbox.com/s/5ad3rx97tt5tp4l/Levis%20Quiz%205.20.17.mus?dl=1) - MIDI (https://www.dropbox.com/s/zoq55sj2i8qjph6/Levis%20Quiz%205.20.17.mid?dl=1) - PDF (https://www.dropbox.com/s/vsqqalguhqqtocd/Levis%20Quiz%205.20.17.pdf?dl=1)

This quiz contains 15 melodies separated into 3 difficulty levels: Mild, Hot, and Spicy. Songs in Mild and Hot are from Nintendo* franchises, while songs in Spicy aren't limited to just Nintendo, and can be from anywhere.

You guys have until 6:00 pm CST on Monday, May 22 to send me your guesses. Feel free to send multiple messages with guesses, just be sure to send any subsequent messages as replies to your original message, so I have them all in one place. Also, sorry if I don't respond to you right away: like I said, I'm gonna be busy the rest of today.

Also, protip: you might want to format your guesses like "#4", since if you use parenthesis you eventually end up with 8).

Otherwise, good luck!
*Okay, maybe one or two aren't explicitly Nintendo franchises, but they might as well be.

Here are the answers to my latest quiz:

#1
"Menu"/"Menu Select Theme"/"Menu Theme", from Metroid Prime
Timestamp: 0:08

I decided to start this off with an easy melody to ease listeners into the quiz. This might have worked.

I also accepted the Credits Theme of Metroid Prime (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CwA3dS_1_ts) as correct, as it's an extension of the Menu Theme.

I reluctantly marked the Title Theme of Metroid Prime as correct because, even though there's lots of evidence that (https://youtu.be/tBq_SueS8oo?t=0s) the Title Theme of Metroid Prime (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XsN2COe918Y) is a different song (https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL60AC8FAD43BF869C) entirely (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=15_PGFMJ4E4&list=PL60AC8FAD43BF869C&index=1), the topmost search result on YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=metroid+prime+title+theme) contains that melody (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YfGsArRQjKE). I strongly suspect that video is mislabelled, but I didn't expect anyone else to do their research.

Oh yeah, this melody is in a Super Smash Bros. game (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tAjpuctFvJY).

3 out of 6 people got this correct.
[close]

#2
"Sullied Grace"/"Dirty & Beauty"/"Queen Sectonia 1", from Kirby: Triple Deluxe, used as Queen Sectonia's first final boss theme (and Queen Sectonia DX's only boss theme)
Timestamp: 1:12

I also accepted Sectonia Clone's boss theme--"Faded & Flower"/"Faded Flower" from Kirby: Planet Robobot (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SV2qzlQhaqI)--as correct, as it slices out all of the original's intro except this melody.

I picked this melody because it is highly repetitive. The first 2 bars are repeated 3 more times in that excerpt. If you didn't get the song from the opening 2 bars, chances are that you didn't get this song entirely. Luckily, even though the melody only starts playing more than a minute into the original song, it marks a pretty noticeable tempo and texture change...(By the way, I tried to evenly distribute such highly repetitive melodies throughout the quiz.)

2 out of 6 people got this correct.
[close]

#3
"Mechanical Rhythm", from Xenoblade Chronicles, used as the regular battle theme while in Mechonis
Timestamp: 0:38

Given that this song is relatively famous, I purposefully picked this melody to both use the anthemic F minor portion and dodge all versions of the opening riff (thus why its 8 bars start with 2 bars in D minor).

Also, this melody is in a Super Smash Bros. game (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oMRAfuqYcY0).

5 out of 6 people got this correct.
[close]

#4
"The Decadent Dandy (King Knight Battle)", from Shovel Knight, used as King Knight's boss theme
Timestamp: 0:05

This is one of the less popularly arranged Shovel Knight songs, so I picked an excerpt from close to the beginning of the song. I don't really wanna transcribe the intro...besides, it's hard to extract the melody of this piece from the .nsf. The last bar of my melody is particularly deceptive...

5 out of 6 people got this correct.
[close]

#5
"Great Grey Wolf Sif", from Dark Souls, used as Sif's boss theme
Timestamp: 0:00

This is the only melody in this quiz that I transcribed pretty much cold, without listening to it several times beforehand. So I figured I'd better transcribe the very start, as I didn't have a clue which sections of the song would be the most iconic. It's a bit ambiguous to me which melodic line is higher-volume in parts.

Fun fact: I first heard of this song from a FamilyJules Dark Souls medley (https://youtu.be/VZuDEVay1cI?t=4m53s). This combined with Dark Souls's music being somewhat played in orchestras (https://www.google.ca/search?q=dark+souls+music+concert&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&gws_rd=cr&ei=7MsfWbLTIIm4jwT29rKICg) and the several remixes of Sif's theme on YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=great+grey+wolf+sif+remix) convinced me that this song was not obscure. So I guessed that at least one person would get this song right. Alas...

Yes, we have Dark Souls music on www.ninsheetmusic.org (http://www.ninsheetmusic.org/download/pdf/2558). I don't think I'm the only one here to have heard of Dark Souls's OST.

0 out of 6 people got this correct.
[close]

#6
"Theme of the Cheetahmen"/"Cheetahmen Theme"/"Game 52: Action Gamemaster", from Action 52
Timestamp: 0:00

This melody and #7 were meant to be a pair, and if one of them were stolen, I would need to replace them both with another pair of similar-sounding melodies from different games. The first melody in the pair would always be the less popular one to possibly bamboozle listeners.

Note that the main theme of Cheetahmen II (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BkmbbZZOgKg) is practically the same song.

This Cheetahmen stuff apparently became a meme (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Cheetahmen#In_popular_culture) as recently as 2007 (http://knowyourmeme.com/memes/cheetahmen-ii), complete with an album of Cheetahmen music remixes being published then.

I later found out that this is a highly repetitive melody, as it also repeats its first 2 bars 3 more times in its 8 bars. Thus, I dragged the paired melodies far away from #2 so you wouldn't notice that highly repetitive melodies are a sub-theme of this quiz.

Yes, this song is on www.ninsheetmusic.org (http://www.ninsheetmusic.org/download/pdf/2345).

This is one of the 2 obscure songs that I predicted nobody would guess correctly. Somehow, I was proven wrong.

2 out of 6 people got this correct.
[close]

#7
"Pursuit ~ Cornered"/"Cornered", from Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney, used when submitting the last piece of evidence in a trial
Timestamp: 0:00

This melody and #6 were meant to be a pair, and if one of them were stolen, I would need to replace them both with another pair of similar-sounding melodies from different games. The second melody in the pair would always be the more popular one to ensure that people would realize that they were led astray.

In this case, this melody is really popular, and given how obscure #6 is, I trusted that this would ensure that nobody would guess this melody's song for #6. Luckily for me, that worked.

5 out of 6 people got this correct.
[close]

#8
"Garden Boogie", from Dance Dance Revolution Mario Mix
Timestamp: 0:30

I thought I'd throw in a VGM remix of a piece of classical music into one of my quizzes. That remix would have to sound distinctively different from the original in order for me to use it. Luckily, this song fit the bill.

This song is a remix of Georges Bizet's so-called Carmen Overture (in reality, the Prelude to Act I (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cvny0Mssa04) of that opera).

This is one of the 2 obscure songs that I predicted nobody would guess correctly. Somehow, I was proven wrong.

1 out of 6 people got this correct.
[close]

#9
"Fighting to the End", from Bravely Default, used as the regular boss theme
Timestamp: 0:57

I like Bravely Default's OST in general, and this is one of my favourite songs from that game (don't worry, I like "That Person's Name Is" at least slightly more). I find this melody's riff to be pretty distinctive, if rather angular for Revo/Sound Horizon/Linked Horizon.

Given how well-received Bravely Default and its OST were, I thought at least one person would get this song correct. At least that came true for this song...

You can be particularly evil and transcribe part of the solos in the second loop of this song (2:02 and later) in your next quiz.

1 out of 6 people got this correct.
[close]

#10
"Guardian Deities Battle"/"Battle! (Tapu)", from Pokemon Sun and Pokemon Moon, used as the battle theme against the Tapu legendaries
Timestamp: 0:11

This is one of my favourite songs from Pokemon Sun and Pokemon Moon, and given how angular it is, I thought it would be fairly hard to get. So I picked an excerpt from near the beginning of the piece. And it was hell to transcribe, and it's hell to read. But, apparently, it wasn't hell to recognize...

4 out of 6 people got this correct.
[close]

#11
"Death by Glamour", from Undertale, used as Mettaton EX's boss theme
Timestamp: 1:04

I picked this melody to have a fair chance of tricking you into picking the wrong song. I marked "Metal Crusher" (still from Undertale, used as Mettaton's boss theme) (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P0PpyUsvT9w) as incorrect, as it contains a similar melody in the wrong key. Somehow, nobody fell for it. Maybe it's because this song is arguably the more famous of the two...

5 out of 6 people got this correct.
[close]

#12
"Circuit"/"Raceways"/"3 Raceways & Wario Stadium", from Mario Kart 64, used as the theme for Luigi Raceway, Mario Raceway, Royal Raceway, and Wario Stadium
Timestamp: 0:04

This was the last of the highly repetitive melodies. Unlike the other two, it only repeats its first 2 bars two more times instead of three. The 7th bar is the same as the first one, though.

I have a habit of singing the drum roll in the last bar, which is why I took the trouble to attempt to transcribe it.

4 out of 6 people got this correct.
[close]

#13
"The Greatest Warrior in the Galaxy"/"The Strongest Warrior in the Galaxy"/"The Strongest Knight in the Galaxy", from Kirby Super Star Ultra, used as Galacta Knight's boss theme
Timestamp: 0:27

Unlucky #13 is a melody so fast that its notes blur together, likely ensuring that any transcriptions of it are hard to trust. If I weren't restricted to using only songs from video games that share a series with at least one song in www.ninsheetmusic.org for this quiz, I would easily have picked another song instead for that role. Every time I listen to this song with better headphones, I'm reminded how rhythmically inaccurate I likely am...

...especially since, if you were observant, you may have noticed that I ripped this melody straight from my current transcription of this song and corrected the octave voicing. No fixing the accidentals this time...

I marked both versions of Galacta Knight's theme in later games, "Warrior from Another World" from Kirby's Return to Dream Land (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zOzY-bLnHYc) and "The Greatest Time Travelling Warrior in the Galaxy" from Kirby: Planet Robobot (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-0tLq4cx9So), as incorrect because they modify this melody.

Based on all other arrangements of this song I've heard, nobody else has ever arranged or transcribed 0:43-0:49 correctly, despite several attempts being published. Maybe stay away from excerpts like that in future quizzes...

4 out of 6 people got this correct.
[close]

#14
"Knight of the Wind", from Sonic and the Black Knight, used as the "main theme" (including the credits)
Timestamp: 0:17

Yup, this song has lyrics. I couldn't bear to keep transcribing after the 8th bar, which is why I cut it off instead of extending the note into a 9th bar. I like listening to the instrumental version (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1kIv-QpmOUU), but it doesn't have the vocal melody anywhere, so I suspect it's a karaoke backing track...

Oh yeah, this melody is in a Super Smash Bros. game (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PWbReqBR01M).

1 out of 6 people got this correct.

"To Zanarkand"/"Zanarkand", from Final Fantasy X, used as the opening theme
Timestamp: 0:25

I ended my quiz with an easy song to reward you for listening this far. It's also one of the only slow songs in this quiz.

...Well, at least I thought it would be easy based on how many rearrangements of this I've listened to and how disparate their arrangers are. This was partially a test to see how famous I could expect Final Fantasy music to be in this forum.

Fun fact: My cousin played this piece at his sister's (my other cousin's) wedding.

3 out of 6 people got this correct.

You know, it's honestly both surprising and worrying how often I see some variation of the phrases "I assumed people would know this, but they didn't" or "I assumed people wouldn't know this, but they did" in those explanations. Your VGM library must be incredibly different from the rest of us.

And out of curiosity, what melody did you think we'd think 11 was? Anybody who didn't immediately think that was Death By Glamour would be out of their mind.

I didn't even recognize Death By Glamour, which is weird, because I was just listening to the OST a week ago.

I knew it was Undertale, but I couldn't figure out what. I was watching an Undertale mercy run, which is the only reason I know a lot of those songs. I thought it was a death theme or something.

I mentioned in my answer set that I thought at least one person would guess that it was "Metal Crusher".

With that being said, I did pick that portion of "Death By Glamour" partially because it had such a high chance of backfiring (i.e. if I picked the equivalent portion of "Metal Crusher", someone might have actually gotten it wrong).

Send me a message via PM or Skype. I mostly picked 6:00 CST arbitrarily; right now I'm a little more flexible time-wise. If you can get your guesses in reasonably soon (say in 1-3 hours), that's fine by me. (That goes for anyone else wanting to participate as well).

Well, without further ado, let's get to the results:  (//http://)

Mild

#1
Kirby Mass Attack - Main Theme
(Timestamp at 0:11)

A simple melody to start things off. I don't have much to say about this one; I chose it because I felt like it.

4 participants guessed this song correctly
[close]

#2
Pokemon Ruby Version & Pokemon Sapphire Version - Route 113
(Timestamp at 0:22)

Possibly my favorite route theme from RSE. There's something so serene about this song playing in the background as volcanic ash rains on you from above. I thought I'd try using the second melody of the song to try and trip some of you up, but clearly you guys saw through it.

4 participants guessed this song correctly
[close]

#3
Sonic the Hedgehog 3 - Angel Island Zone
(Timestamp at 0:29)

Yeah, it's not "technically" Nintendo, but Sonic might as well be a Nintendo character at this point. Despite this being the from the first level in the game (and a featured song in Brawl), only one person got this one. I guess maybe I should've used a song from the first game? Oh well.

1 participant guessed this song correctly

#4
The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess - Lake Hylia
(Timestamp at 0:05)

Nothing much else to say here. A nice relaxing piece to take the number four spot.

#5
Super Mario 64 - Merry-Go-Round
(Timestamp at 0:00)

Round and round and round it goes... who'll guess the melody?...

...well, I know.

5 participants guessed this song correctly
[close]

Hot

#6
Overworld (Vs. Mode) - New Super Mario Bros.
(Timestamp at 0:04)

A fun little song found only in the multiplayer mode of the original NSMB. Thus, why it's in the "Hot" category.

3 participants guessed this song correctly
[close]

#7
Pokemon Diamond Version & Pokemon Pearl Version - Route 225
(Timestamp at 0:15)

So here I am, putting in a melody found only in the postgame of DPPt, thinking it'll send you guys running in circles, when suddenly insaneintherainmusic posts a cover of this song the day I upload this quiz (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pWrig4A8fEY). While I am a little salty about that, do check out his video. It's quite good.

2 participants guessed this song correctly
[close]

#8
Mario Kart Wii - Daisy Circuit
(Timestamp at 0:24)

My thought process for deciding to include this song went something like this: "What is the most boring, unmemorable song from all of Mario Kart?" I figured that might throw you guys for a loop

...clearly that didn't quite work.

5 participants guessed this song correctly

#9
Kirby Super Star - Trees in the Depths in the Earth
(Timestamp at 0:06)

You can probably tell, but I gave up about halfway through when transcribing this song. Clearly, you didn't let that stop you from identifying it.

3 participants guessed this song correctly
[close]

#10
EarthBound Beginnings (Mother) - Wisdom of the World (Queen Mary's Castle)
(Timestamp at 0:11)

A bit obscure, I'll admit. Though to be fair, there is an arrangement of this song on site (http://www.ninsheetmusic.org/download/pdf/2794). Whether or not that makes up for the obscurity is up to you.

1 participant guessed this song correctly

Spicy

#11
WarioWare D.I.Y. - Body Rock
(Timestamp at 0:17)

Who wouldn't want Jimmy T. as their aerobics instructor?

...okay, maybe not. But I still really like this song.

It's also at this point where I have to mention that nobody was able to get any of the songs following this one. Perhaps I made this section a bit too spicy...

2 participants guessed this song correctly

#12
Secret of Mana - Danger
(Timestamp at 1:13)

Yup, I went there.

For those that don't remember, I had this song as my #3 entry in my last quiz. I figured it would be interesting to see how many people remembered this song after last time. Apparently, that number is zero.

...huh.

0 participants guessed this song correctly

#13
Super Meat Boy - Hot Damned
(Timestamp at 0:11)

Go play Super Meat Boy. That's all I'm going to say.

Pokemon Stadium 2 - Streaming Stampede

#15
Mirror's Edge - Still Alive
(Timestamp at 0:56 & repeats throughout)

*insert your own Portal joke here*

And lastly, the spiciest song of them all. I figured that the piano riff might have been one of those melodies that seems familiar, but one where you couldn't pin down exactly where it was from. Well, as far as I know, it just ended up being a really hard song. Whoops.

Well, there goes my chance. I do know that I would've recognized #1, 5, 6, 8, 9, but I had a presentation to work on. But Yug_Guy, I like how you sorted out the obscurity levels! Good job with that!'

One question, though: Why is Daisy Circuit an "unmemorable" track? I figured something unmemorable would be something from Super Circuit, or maybe the Arcade GP games, but not the best-selling Mario Kart of all time!

...clearly that didn't quite work.
The first half didn't sound like much to me, but the last three measures in particular have that distinct Mario Kart sound - intricate rhythms involving 16th notes, and notes borrowed from the minor mode. That's why I can sometimes easily call out Mario Kart when I see it, for instance, MK64 Circuit, Wii Mario Circuit, GCN Rainbow Road, and Wii Daisy Circuit here.

Identifying them correctly, however, will be the death of me. The fact that so many of them draw from the same basic idea makes it hard for me to remember which one is which lol.

A) Having a song from Super Circuit or Arcade GP would be a bit too obscure. I wanted something that was a "medium" level difficulty.
B) I just sorta picked a song and went with it. Nothing much more complicated than that.

By "quality" > "quantity", do you mean "listeners should be able to guess entire quizzes correctly", "quiz-makers should create quizzes that they expect at least one user to get 80% correctly", "quiz-makers should create quizzes that they expect all guessers to get at least 20% of the melodies correct for", or something else?

None. I wasn't saying that anything should be any sort of way. I was merely commenting on the fact that MSF pointed out that a couple people had correctly guessed all of the tracks, saying that I thought that was impressive.

I don't know the history of quiz difficulty here since I've only done like three, but judging by the few that I've done it's been pretty hard to recognize all of the tunes.

Since it's Wednesday on the east coast right now, I suppose I might as well go ahead... (to which Dudeman has agreed, by the way)

MSF ROUND 3 (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/w3ft8stiu6ex399/AAAXh44DG8093diCup2aHNKMa?dl=0)

This quiz contains 30 (!) melodies from a wide variety of games and series. Most of them should be decently recognizable, with at least one person, if not more, getting each one. There are, however, a couple that are intentionally obscure and perhaps may not be recognized by anyone. Here are a few notes about the quiz:
If you're wondering just how far I'll go in terms of length, worry not; this is likely the maximum length I will ever go to on one of these quizzes. (Unless someone does a longer one first...)

Finally, with the great length of this quiz, I will publicly be keeping track of how many people can recognize each one by periodically updating the list below (check the time of when the post was last edited for how recent these stats are):

Correctly Guessed Tracks
Black = 0 people
Red = 1-2 people
Green = 3-4 people
Blue = 5+ people

1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9  10  11  12  13  14  15  16  17  18  19  20  21  22  23  24  25  26  27  28  29  30

Shoot, I only got 4 on Dudeman's. Why do melody quiz and Yoshi's Island scores bother me more than they should? If my school only had melody quizzes I'd be a dropout.

Thank you very much to my five entrants for your participation. It's answer time!

#1
Lovely Yellow Va-Va-Vrooms - Kirby Planet Robobot
Timestamp: 0:05
high-quality only no regrets

This one's a fun, quirky ditty that I thought would make for a good starting song. Robobot's actually the only "recent" Kirby game I've played (Epic Yarn excluded), and I love it to bits. Go play it if you haven't.

2/5 people guessed this correctly.
[close]
#2
A Despair-Filled Farewell - Shadow of the Colossus
Timestamp: 1:18

This one's a bit self-indulgent. SotC is easily my favorite game not published on a Nintendo platform, with epic atmosphere and a real sense of scale that you don't get quite anywhere else. AND THE SOUNDTRACK IS DOPE. I was really hoping more people were familiar with it. I guess I was wrong.

0/5 people guessed this correctly.
[close]
#3
Holy Land (Area Zero Camp) - Mega Man Zero 4
Timestamp: 0:23

This one's very self-indulgent. Sorry. I did mention recently in that "Favorite Soundtrack by Console" topic how amazing Zero 4's soundtrack is, but I can't blame the public for not listening to the soundtrack.

0/5 people guessed this correctly.
[close]
#4
Following Stanley - The Stanley Parable
Timestamp: 0:03

Ahh, The Stanley Parable. One of the greatest comedic masterworks of our time, featuring a fairly atmospheric but still effective soundtrack. ...except for this piece, of course. Come, Stanley! Let's find the story!
I put lyrics to this originally for fun, but I guess it might've been hard to pin this one down otherwise. It appears that didn't make it any easier, though.

1/5 people guessed this correctly.
[close]
#5
Napalm Man Stage - Mega Man 5
Timestamp: 0:06

Okay yes I did this partly because Napalm Man is my favorite Robot Master don't judge me. I really really love this piece on its own, too, though. The soaring melody, the slightly melancholic chord progression...ticks all my boxes. Well, at least one guy gets where I'm coming from.

1/5 people guessed this correctly.
[close]
#6
Kamella - Super Mario Galaxy
Timestamp: 0:15

I think this originally was another Mega Man piece, but I swapped it out sensing a lack of more popular titles. I still shot for the obscure side of things (this boss is pretty meh and only appears twice), but it looks like this was more memorable than I thought.

3/5 people guessed this correctly.
[close]
#7
CORE - Undertale
Timestamp: 1:01

I thought the segment I picked would be vague enough to throw people off despite it being Undertale, and it looks like it may have worked? With only five entries, who's to say. I actually half-expected more correct answers.

2/5 people guessed this correctly.
[close]
#8
Hometown - Mega Man Battle Network 4
Timestamp: 0:00

OKAY YES I KNOW THERE'S TOO MUCH MEGA MAN BUT DON'T CRUCIFY ME YET I PICKED THIS ONE ON PURPOSE. All six Battle Network games use the same theme for the protagonist's home town, just with slight variations in key and rhythm, so I figured if you've ever played one, you might be able to remember that and eventually pick the right version. I chose 4 since it's my personal favorite. Nobody guessed any of them because I really shouldn't overestimate the musical libraries of my fellow players.

0/5 people guessed this correctly.
[close]
#9
Fangora - Kirby's Epic Yarn
Timestamp: 0:14

Epic Yarn's great, btw. This boss theme only gets better as it goes, and it's for the first boss in the game. I love the instrumentation, which is simultaneously cute, triumphant, and just plain epic. Looks like that's enough to stick in people's heads.

3/5 people guessed this correctly.
[close]
#10
Casino Delfino - Super Mario Sunshine
Timestamp: 0:03

If you spent any time messing around in the minigames included in SM64DS and NSMB, the last two measures should stick out like a sore thumb. I'd hoped that would be enough to nudge people in the right direction (and it did for at least one). WHERE'S E. GADD WHEN YOU NEED HIM

3/5 people guessed this correctly.
[close]
#11
Quiet - Cave Story
Timestamp: 0:00

This one was intentionally pretty obscure, so color me surprised that so many people got it. My thought was that those who have played Cave Story would probably know this on the spot, and those who hadn't wouldn't. I guess there are more people who've had experience with the game than I thought? (Except for one, you know who you are.)

3/5 people guessed this correctly.
[close]
#12
Lillie's Theme - Pokémon Sun/Moon
Timestamp: 0:21

I took a non-intro portion from a recognizable piece from the best-selling Pokémon games in recent history and hoped no one would notice. You did anyway. Good job.

3/5 people guessed this correctly.
[close]
#13
Wheatley Science - Portal 2
Timestamp: 0:44, but gets more prominent at 0:58

Okay, so not exactly the best choice in terms of prominent melodies. Plus this only plays on the menu when you're in the last couple of chapters of the game. I know how to build a quiz, I swear! I AM NOT A MORON!

0/5 people guessed this correctly.
[close]
#14
Sauron/Ghosts and Magic/Stage 10 - Need for Madness 2
Timestamp: 0:21

This is the melody that you're all allowed to crucify me for. It's an old browser-based game, it was made in the early 2000's, BUT IT HAS A KICKASS SOUNDTRACK AND I HAVE ALL THE NOSTALGIA. Really just wanted an excuse to put my favorite piece from my favorite racing game into the quiz. And it's apparently one of those games where people tend to go "Hey, I remember this game! I played it as a kid!" I never once expected anyone to get this one, though. Given how the rest of the quiz turned out, I'd almost be tempted to drop the quiz by a point like Waluigi did with his, but...wouldn't change much, tbh.

0/5 people guessed this correctly.
[close]
#15
Crossing the Sea - Pokémon Ruby/Sapphire Version
Timestamp: 0:06

This was originally (surprise, surprise) another Mega Man piece from a game that probably nobody but me has played (and Blueflower, actually, but he's not playing). Switched it out a few days before my quiz went up to avoid personal disappointment at a lack of answers. It was apparently a good decision. Given that you only get to hear this melody towards the beginning of the game (I am remembering that correctly, right?), I was hoping that would make it more obscure. I was pleasantly surprised.

3/15 people guessed this correctly.

Why would anyone judge you for liking such a perfect robot master? Also that song is fairly well known even to lesser Mega Man fans, so no one's judging you on that either.

Results will likely be posted around 8:00 PM EST Saturday (20 hours from the time of this post). Many of you (in fact, almost everybody) said that a lot of the melodies still sounded familiar to you and that you'd take another listen. Be sure to get any updates to your answers in by then! None of the remaining three (2, 8, and 25) have been guessed yet, but for each of those there were some people I had in mind while creating this quiz that I thought would be able to get them. If you think you may know them (or anything else on the quiz), don't give up yet!

#1 (5/12)
"Figure-8 Circuit / Mario Circuit" - Mario Kart DS


Timestamp: 0:31

I started off this quiz with a good ol' Mario Kart song, in particular one of my personal favorites and also one I wanted to see if people remembered. Originally I had Waluigi Pinball in here instead, but I figured that I already had enough tracks in this quiz that reappear in Smash. (It'd also make it a bit too easy...)

Quote from: DudemanDefinitely Mario Kart of some sort. Will have to come back to this.

"Embracing One's Duty" / "N's Bridge" - Pokémon Black & White


Timestamp: 0:17

High-Quality Rip (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tmbTCODGoNE)

Phooey darn. This is one of my all-time favorite tracks in Pokémon, and I was hoping at least one person would know it; alas, not a single person got it right in the end. Granted, it only plays once in the entire game, and not for very long at that...

#3 (2/12)
"Tellur Town (Autumn)" - Pokkén Tournament


Timestamp: 1:08

This was my replacement for the Vs. Tapu theme, and I just went picked something obscure and very far in because I was salty after having one of my favorite ones used. :P (For the record, I've never played this game.)

Quote[5/24/17, 7:23:32 PM] mastersuperfan: I originally used Magikarp Festival and then I was like "screw it, this has half a million views and only like two actual melodies"

"Metallic Mario" - Super Mario 64


Timestamp: 0:04

High-Quality Rip (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cHjiz2G6jV4)

One of the easiest melodies in the entire quiz, and it definitely showed in the results. If you've ever touched this game, this theme probably stuck with you.

"Lorule Castle (Top Floor)" - The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds


Timestamp: 0:20

(Also in the Lorule Castle medley (https://youtu.be/g75HDyL2BGc?t=2m27s).)

Perhaps one of the more standout tracks in the game, though it only plays at the very end. I wasn't picky if you just said "Lorule Castle" without specifying the floor, since the part I transcribed was the theme that plays on every floor, but in a key that only appears in the Top Floor version. Plus, many online versions feature all floors together as a medley.

"Digga-Leg" - Super Mario Galaxy 2


Timestamp: 0:39

Oh, hey, look. It's another Galaxy boss with "leg" in its name. I purposely chose the melody in the song that would translate the most unrecognizably to piano, yet I was still expecting a couple more people to know this one, especially since I find this track much more memorable than Megaleg... Congratulations to Dudeman for being the only one to get this one correct.

#8 (0/12)
"Map (Prologue)" - Fire Emblem Heroes


Timestamp: 0:50

This was the one track not on a Nintendo system, though that never meant Nintendo didn't have a hand in developing it... Unfortunately, despite the popularity of Fire Emblem among some members on the forums, nobody was able to recognize this one. Perhaps it would've been guessed if I'd used the first melody instead?

Other accepted games: Super Smash Bros. for Wii U (https://youtu.be/hbguFBdZvkM?t=9s)

Yes, I did another track from Gen 5 (after all, it's the best generation), but BW and B2W2 are different games, so there's no rule against it. Congratulations to LuxraySpiral for being the only one to get this one correct. I'm rather surprised not more people knew it, especially since it's a remix of The Pokémon Lab / Professor Rowan's Theme from Gen 4 (and it got its own remix in Smash 4 to boot).

Some of you may or may not perhaps remember that I didn't like this game when I played it. In no way did that stop me from using its music, however, and I thought this catchy track would be a nice addition to make for a more diverse selection of melodies.

I've never played Xenoblade, but I have to say that the soundtrack is amazing. This is one of the first ones I listened to, and I was totally blown away by the music's sheer grandness and scale. I decided to pick a part that didn't give it away but still made it recognizable, and sure enough some people were able to get it.

Quote from: Dudemanas I was listening to the original I was starting to get worried that this wasn't it, it's so far into the piece

I haven't played much of Skyward Sword either, nor do I know the soundtrack very well. In fact, I know this one purely from Hyrule Warriors. Regardless, I threw this one into my quiz for some diversity. I was a little surprised at the lack of people who knew this one, though I do suppose the excerpt is rather far in...

Kid Icarus: Uprising is one of my favorite 3DS games, and I know that a few other people here have played it as well. I originally had a melody from one of the earlier parts in 5/8, but to make it a little harder to recognize I decided to move the selection further in. Congratulations to Dudeman for being the only one to get this one correct.

Also rather surprised so few people got this one.

The first piece of Final Fantasy music I ever heard, and perhaps for good reason: it's the only one ever to show up in a Mario game, which was the reason why I chose this one in particular.

I was not expecting so many people to know this one, but I do suppose the jazzy swing makes it rather distinguishable. I purposely picked the section in 4/4 instead of the more well-known intro in 5/4 to obscure it a little bit, but it didn't seem to fool any of you. It being in Smash probably also has something to do with it...

"Find Mii" - StreetPass Mii Plaza


Timestamp: 0:10

A nice little theme that always stuck in my head while playing the StreetPass minigames because of its time signature. Congratulations to LeviR.star for being the only one to get this correct. I also realized that it sounds very similar to the Mushroom Kingdom theme from Super Mario RPG (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LWXhD4-_GDY), courtesy of Olimar. Unfortunately, other than both having a kingdom, the two games aren't related at all...

Quote from: DudemanSounds like a castle theme of some kind.

Quote from: Olimar12345Sounds like some sort of variation of the mushroom kingdom from mario RPG, probably from a game I haven't played.

Picking a theme from the Ace Attorney series may have been a little indulgent, but I made sure to choose one that was rather well-known so that some people could get it. Fortunately, the music libraries of my fellow NSM'ers did not let me down.

Quote from: InsigTurtleOk so Phoenix Wright music names have always given me trouble but this is the music that plays around what's-her-face the girl whose sister died last year oh right it's Maya Fey. Whatever it is, it probably has "Turnabout" in the name and a year. IDFK 2001293 that's probably the year. But I do remember this from the first game.

Perhaps you did your best and are satisfied with your score. Perhaps you wish you knew some of these soundtracks a little better. Perhaps there are two, or three, or ten, that you missed but really feel that you should have gotten. Perhaps you could have been the victor if you had tried hard enough...

But however you feel, I hope you all had fun participating in Round 3 of MSF's melody quiz! See you all next time, folks!

The only melodies that haven't been guessed correctly so far are #11, #12 and #13.

"Find Mii" - StreetPass Mii Plaza


Timestamp: 0:10

A nice little theme that always stuck in my head while playing the StreetPass minigames because of its time signature. Congratulations to LeviR.star for being the only one to get this correct. I also realized that it sounds very similar to the Mushroom Kingdom theme from Super Mario RPG (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LWXhD4-_GDY), courtesy of Olimar. Unfortunately, other than both having a kingdom, the two games aren't related at all...

AAAAHH ARE YOU KIDDING ME?! This was the one song that was bugging me! I thought it was from one of the DS Zelda games.

WHAT THE HECK

I THOUGHT THIS WAS SO OBSCURE NOBODY WOULD EVER STEAL IT AND THEN MAEL TAKES THE EXACT SAME MELODY

Post by: LuxraySpiral on May 29, 2017, 07:54:51 AM
10 people participated in this round!

I somehow managed to make #1 and #2 harder than any of the 'Medium' melodies. Oops.

Most of these titles are based off random YouTube vids, so excuse me if I get them wrong.
Anyway, here goes the answers:

'Easy'
#1 (4/10)
Animal Crossing City Folk - The City (Day)
Time stamp 0:01

This one should really have been in the 'Medium' section, but it doesn't really matter.
Also appears in Sm4sh

Guessed by MSF, Yug_Guy, Dudeman, Olimar12345
[close]
#2 (4/10)
Star Fox 64 - Star Wolf
Time stamp 0:07

I don't know how different it would have been if I had included the iconic intro, but [insert cliché I-wasn't-expecting-this comment here]
Also appears in Brawl and Sm4sh

Guessed by MSF, Yug_Guy, Dekkadeci, Dudeman
[close]
#3 (9/10)
The Legend of Zelda - Secret Sound

I couldn't even find a YT video for this, probably because it's more of a sound effect than a track.

Guessed by WaluigiTime64, MSF, Yug_Guy, Dudeman, Latios212, Olimar12345, THC, Maelstrom, InsigTurtle
[close]
#4 (8/10)
Undertale - SAVE the world
Time Stamp 0:21

I wasn't sure how many people would get Undertale, but it turns out it's a fair number.

Guessed by WaluigiTime64, MSF, Yug_Guy, Dudeman, Latios212, Olimar12345, Maelstrom, InsigTurtle

#5 (10/10)
F-Zero - Mute City
Time Stamp 0:19

Everyone got this one! Very pleased about this one ^^

Guessed by WaluigiTime64, MSF, Yug_Guy, Dekkadeci, Dudeman, Latios212, Olimar12345, THC, Maelstrom, InsigTurtle
[close]

'Medium'
#6 (5/10)
Super Mario Galaxy 2 - World 6
Time Stamp 0:11

I'm running out of both things to say and time to say them, so yes... er... here ya go.

Guessed by MSF, Dudeman, Latios212, THC, InsigTurtle
[close]
#7 (8/10)
Kid Icarus - Reaper
Time Stamp 0:00

Here's a fun one to have on repeat for 30 minutes. I didn't expect this many people to get this one.
Also plays in Kid Icarus: Uprising (That might explain the high number of correct guesses).

Guessed by WaluigiTime64, MSF, Yug_Guy, Dudeman, Latios212, Olimar12345, Maelstrom, InsigTurtle

[close]
#10 (8/10)
Kirby Super Star - Revenge of Meta Knight - Halberd
Time Stamp 0:14

Yeah, I didn't know what this was called, so I was originally gonna go for the name of the theme in Brawl, but I decided to go with the BrawlBRSTMs X name

Guessed by WaluigiTime64, MSF, Yug_Guy, Dekkadeci, Dudeman, Latios212, THC, Maelstrom
[close]

'Hard'
#11 (1/10)
Pokemon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time/Darkness/Sky - Waterfall Cave
Time Stamp 1:12

I could have gone with the opening in the weird time sig, but last time I included a piece with a weird time sig, pretty much everyone guessed it. Also, I kinda stole the notes from Dusk's arrangement, because I gave up on transcribing it by ear. Sorry.

Latios212 was the only person that guessed this one!
[close]
#12 (1/10)
New Super Mario Bros. - Volcano
Time Stamp 0:07

I tried to choose one that would be hard to recognise on piano.

Again, Latios212 was the only person that got this one.
[close]
#13 (1/10)
Pokemon Black Version 2 / White Version 2 - Frozen City
Time Stamp 0:00

I actually really like this song, even though it only appears once in the game. Someone should probably do a piano cover.

This one ended up being the deciding melody, as MSF sent in the tie-breaker! Well done!
[close]
#14 (1/10)
Super Smash Bros. Melee - Boss Battle
Time Stamp 0:22

Yeah, this one was kinda mean.

Congratulations to Dudeman for managing to get this one right!
[close]
#15 (1/10)
Rhythm Heaven - Remix 8
Time Stamp 1:43

I used the in-game version which speeds up at the end. All those perfect attempts...

Well done to MSF for getting this one correct!

Hold on--the melody of the relevant section of LuxraySpiral's #14 sounds like all high C's to me in the video. (Guess I may not be trying "Songs with prominent long-note melodies-that-could-be-countermelodies" in my Quiz 4 unless I provide everything that could be the melody there...)

THE RESULTS

Only 5 people participated. Oops.
Oh, and I "borrowed" Lux's method of posting to make things go faster.

The "easy" ones
#1 (3/5)
Super Metroid - Prologue
Time stamp 0:31
I'm a little surprised more people didn't get this, as it's the most iconic Metroid theme.

[close]
#2 (0/5)
Chrono Trigger - To Far Away Times
Time stamp 0:45

Rather surprised no one got this.....
[close]
#3 (1/5)
The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks - In the Fields
This one may have been a little hard for the "easy" section
Time Stamp: 29
[close]
#4 (1/5)
Kid Icarus: Uprising - Dog's theme
Time Stamp 0:18

Quote from: Dudeman on May 29, 2017, 10:58:28 AM#4: THIS ONE IS DRIVING ME NUTS
hehehehehe

#5 (2/5)
Mario Galaxy 2 - The Fated Final Battle
Time Stamp 0:17

Latios technically got this one, but he didn't really participate and is not counted.
[close]

Much Somewhat harder
#6 (1/5)
Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney - Objection 2012
Time Stamp 0:13
Quote from: InsigTurtle on May 29, 2017, 01:55:34 AM#6 - oh how the tables have turned on me... oh dear... and i thought i was being so clever...
Quote from: Dudeman on May 29, 2017, 10:58:28 AM#6: This is neither Secret of the Forest nor Dragonspiral Tower! (Or Cedar Forest from Breath of Fire III!) How can there be a third (fourth?) piece that uses this melody?!
Ok, maybe this was a bit mean. Congrats to MSF for getting it right.
[close]
#7 (3/5)
Mother 3 - Natural Killer Cyborg
Time Stamp 0:12

Pretty high success rate for a JP only title. That's the power of Mother 3.
[close]
#8 (1/5)
Kirby's Return to Dreamland - Desert Area (Dessert Dunes)
Time Stamp: 0:52

Looks like needing to tone it down for next time (again) is a general theme. Congrats to Insig for getting it right.
[close]
#9 (2/5)
VVVVVV - Pressure Cooker
Time Stamp: 0:42
[close]
#10 (1/5)
Final Fantasy VI - The Veldt
Time Stamp 0:26

MSF was the only one to get this song.
[close]

Way too Hard
#11 (1/5)
Fire Emblem: Path of Radiance - Crimea Attacks
Time Stamp 0:13

Dudeman managed to pull this out at the last minute because it was in smash bros.
[close]
#12 (1/5)
Okami - The Sun Rises
Time Stamp 0:52

I thought a few more people might have gotten this one, but I was wrong. Congrats to Insig.
[close]
#13 (0/5)
Bastion - Mother, I'm Here
Time Stamp 0:19
Really? No one knows Bastion? I guess my perception of what people here has been messed with by my college friends. This song appears in the more popular version, Setting Sail, Coming Home, but since that's the mashup of two melodies, I thought this would be simpler.
[close]
#14 (0/5)
Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days - Vector to the Heavens
Time Stamp 0:41

No one knows Kingdom Hearts? I'll keep that in mind.
[close]
#15 (1/5)
Crypt of the NecroDancer - The Wight to Remain
Time Stamp 0:59

THIS is the one MSF was going to use in his next quiz.
[close]

Bonus Round!
None of these were guessed, so I'll just give the links and time stamps
#1
Time stamp: 0:31
#2
Time stamp: 0:00
#3
Time stamp: 0:15
#4
Time stamp: 1:31 Ok, I'll admit this was a bit sadistic.
#5
Time stamp: 0:08 And this one was just mean.
[close]

THE WINNER IS
Spoiler
MASTER SUPER FAN WITH 6/15
FOR THE 3RD TIME IN A ROW MY QUIZ HAS BEEN WON WITH A SCORE OF 40%

Here's a help post for assistance with my quiz:

-Two melodies are from the same game. No others share this quality.
-All but two can be heard on nintendo consoles.
-There might be three melodies from the Zelda and Pikmin franchises.
-There might be two melodies from the Metroid and Mario franchises.
-There might be one melody from the Pokemon and Kirby franchises.
-Numbers 3 and 10 can be extended, but doing so would just repeat the material already present.
-If correctly guessed, number 7 is a bonus melody that will count for five times the others. Currently no one has guessed it correctly.
 
Good luck!

Pikmin...no wonder people have been perplexed by your quiz so far. I know, like, what, that Ai No Uta exists and I've never listened to it? I'm afraid that's the only Pikmin song I've ever heard of.

Post by: Dekkadeci on June 03, 2017, 09:48:34 PM
Static,

Melody VII was pretty clever, picking one of the least memorable parts of the Rogueport theme. Given that I actually finished Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door, I should have known it. Especially since I remember the less obscure portions afterwards...

I'm not getting a close enough rhythm (and possibly even melody) match for Melody I, though, especially the last 2 bars. The prominent notes are there (and dagnabbit does that melody's Bars 3-4 sound unrecognizable without the harmony), but the accessory notes don't seem to be...(I'm partially recognizing the song up to your point on later listen, but straight after your passage is freaking me out.)

Melody XV was excellent at fooling me into thinking it was from the Zelda series (the Hyrule Castle theme (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_uR7doemZD0) from The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past sounds similar enough, so I ended up listening to a lot of Hyrule Castle themes instead of guessing Metroid, as I thought the tune sounded familiar).
Title: Re: LeviR.star's Somewhat Triweekly Guess-That-Melody Quiz!
Post by: Static on June 03, 2017, 09:53:17 PM
Melody I was kind of a weird one to try to make one melodic line out of since there's so many things going on, so I ended up choosing what I thought were the most prominent notes.

In the future, I'll probably include a bit more stuff in songs like these for clarity.

In the meantime, it's the InsigQuiz Episode 3! It's worth the wait.

Not really. Frankly, I'll apologize profusely for some of the melodies I chose. I'll decide the scoring when the results come in because there were some that I didn't expect anyone to guess. I just included them because... Well, you'll see. I also threw this quiz together in the last 2 hours, so don't judge me too harshly.

Just to clear up some confusion: Yup, I'm accepting answers for both parts of the quiz.
Some hints:
There are melodies from MOTHER 3 and Okami in here. Also I'm not exactly sure how many Mario and Zelda melodies there are. One of them in particular makes me feel tingly inside.

This is exactly what not to do when writing for any knowledge-based game. It's no fun when players have no idea what something is; when the answers are revealed it's just like "well, I never would have gotten that, okay", and that's a thing to avoid.
Quote from: Olimar12345 on June 05, 2017, 02:30:17 PMhow you guys felt during my quiz is how I feel during most quizzes .-.

A good melody isn't necessarily quiz-worthy; it's important to write with your audience in mind - not to cater to what music they know, but to stick within the general realm of recognizability for most players. Although I concede that is a difficult thing to do well.

#5 in the first part reminds me of how some music can be really difficult to sight-read but be much easier to play after you've listened to it ad nauseam. (Apparently, those Halberd level themes also match that description, at least according to this web page (http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/373175) from someone who's arranged them.)

A counter melody isn't any less of a melody. The definition of a melody is simply an arrangement of notes in a set order. That specific counter melody was a defining feature of that track, too.

As far as I'm concerned, the only Ace Attorney songs I expect other people to know are "Pursuit ~ Cornered" and "Turnabout Sisters" (this is based on the number of remixes I've seen of both songs compared to other Ace Attorney songs). ...It's probably not coincidence that I've already used one and someone else has already used the other. With that being said, I do expect others on this forum to know those two songs.

It's like Guile's theme being the most famous song in Street Fighter, then me having no clue what Ryu's or Chun Li's theme is. ...Oh, I also have no clue what Guile's theme sounds like, either. I just know it's famous and Ryu's theme isn't quite.

Update! So far, #1, #2, and #3 from Part 1 have remained unguessed, and #3, #6, #10 and #13 from Part 2. Since some of these might be difficult, I'll letcha know that they're melodies from MOTHER 3, Okami, Paper Mario: Color Splash, Xenoblade Chronicles, Freshly-Picked Tingle's Rosy Rupeeland, WarioWare: Touched! (the last two, I know they're not very popular, but... I had to include them for the memes) and one more game that I've mentioned recently on this forum. I was hoping someone would see that post and recognize one of the melodies in my quiz, but... That didn't happen. Oh, well. One of the melodies is actually a rather popular one, from a rather popular game, and... That's all the hints I can give for now.

Congratulations to mastersuperfan for winning with 13/19! (68%)
Our runner-ups this time were Latios212, TheHiddenCharacter, and Dudeman all with 8/19!

I was aiming for an oddball quiz this time, so I promise not to do anything like this again. So, let's look at the melodies for the Um Dafuq quiz. If you answered with a piece that used the same melody, I accepted it.

Spoiler
Frankly, I'm surprised everyone got Part 1 - #5 and #6. I didn't think anyone would get them, because they're pretty obscure.

WARNING: Do *NOT* listen to #1 without headphones if you live with other people!

Part 1: Hard
1- Rao's Theme - Okami
0 people guessed this. You are pure.
2- Pinkle's Theme - Freshly-Picked Tingle's Rosy Rupeeland
1 person guessed this. You are not pure.
And yes, that X notehead does represent the moan. I would have gone crazy trying to do that for the first one, though.
As you can tell, the "Hard" refers to more than one thing.

Very Hard
3- Title - WarioWare: Touched
1 person got this. 1 other person should have gotten this.
4- Jungle Japes - Donkey Kong 64
(https://ih0.redbubble.net/image.211401894.9374/flat,800x800,075,f.u2.jpg)
Everyone got this. And now you know why these are "very hard" melodies.

Extremely Hard
5- Overworld - Super Mario Bros
Surprisingly, everyone got this.
6- Overworld - The Legend of Zelda
Surprisingly, everyone got this as well.

Part 2:
1- Monstro Town - Super Mario RPG
2 people got this. If you did, I love you.
2- Pelipper Island - Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time/Darkness/Sky
3 people got this. If you did, I also love you. I accepted any other music that used this theme, as well as the PSMD version.
3- Satorl Marsh (Night) - Xenoblade Chronicles
1 person got this, while someone who requested an arrangement of this track (http://forum.ninsheetmusic.org/index.php?topic=6373.msg253708) did not.
4- To Zanarkand - Final Fantasy X
4 people got this one. I didn't realize it had already been used (sorry Dekka!), but it doesn't really matter. I'm actually not too fond of this one, I just included this one because I was hoping someone's mind would go FF X -> Tidus -> Tidus laughing -> Tidus laughing for 10 hours. In fact, because I'm a masochist, I'm letting that play in the background as I type this post up. It's sorta ruining the background music.
5- Malie City (Night) - Pokémon Sun/Moon
4 people also got this one. Tidus's laugh was just synchronized with the music for a moment there.
6- Happy Town? - Mother 3
I'm rather disappointed nobody got this one. It's one of my favourites from this game. I would have accepted any other times this melody plays in the game. (To the person who was super close: You were probably thinking of "Going Alone", which is in the same key but has a different tempo and instrumentation)
7- Techno Factory - Kirby's Return to Dream Land
2 people got this one. I didn't actually have much trouble with this level, I just like the music. I don't like it as much with Tidus laughing in the background, though.
8- Astral Observatory - The Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask
4 people got this. I wasn't sure if I had transcribed enough parts in this one, so I decided to compensate for it in the next two pieces. And if I had left out the first bar, well, good luck.
9- Dreamy Somnom Labyrinth - Mario & Luigi: Dream Team
2 people got this one. I like this one very much. Is it because of D#/Eb minor? Maybe.
10- Kiwano Temple - Paper Mario: Color Splash
With a little push, the person this melody was intended for got this. Also one of my favourites from Color Splash. Although the level this plays in is one of the most hated in the entire game. I like the part at 0:50 until the repeat and how the flute finally imitates the hums right before the repeat.
11- Gourmet Race - Kirby Super Star
Everyone got this one. Happy happy joy joy. Currently 17:23 into 10 hours of Tidus laughing.
12- Mabe Village - The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening
8 people got this, including THIEF. You know who you are. Everyone knows.
13- Opening Cutscene - Link: The Faces of Evil
I'm so sorry. I tried so hard to get someone to recognize it by posting links to random edits of this cutscene, but I failed. I considered extending it, but for some reason, I didn't.
In any case, I like the 7-bar phrase here. It fits pretty well.

Recommended Listening:
Passage from Genesis - Ecco the Dolphin : Defender of the Future
Soothing, sensual. Tim Follin deserved better.

Let us have a not-so-silly quiz next time.

#12 (9/12)
Athletic - Super Mario Land 2: 6 Golden Coins
Timestamp: 0:01

As suspected, the easiest one I put on the quiz. A step below many of the other Mario Athletic themes in terms of popularity, but a recognizable enough one - especially if you played the game, because like half of the songs reuse this melody.
mastersuperfan, Dudeman, InsigTurtle, WaluigiTime64, ThatHiddenCharacter, Dekkadeci, Yug Guy, Olimar12345, and LeviR.Star guessed this correctly.

#13 (1/12)
Trainers' Eyes Meet (Hiker) - Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire
Timestamp: 0:02

If you've played R/S/E/OR/AS, you've definitely heard this before. But it'd be a bit tricky to recall. (Someone got it, though!!)

#15 (1/12)
Special World 8 (5 Stars) - Super Mario 3D Land

I know this is a fairly difficult one to get given it's so far in the game, but here's another entry point:


Quote from: WaluigiTime64I couldn't be bothered to figure it out, but I swear I'm going to hate myself for it.

I'm getting so confused by the US names lol.

Also don't bother using good vehicles either. Having fun is the most important part of the game, and if you can't win a 150cc-Frantic-Items-Hard-AI-32-Races match with Waluigi in a ferrari, you're not doing it right.

Post by: WaluigiTime64 on June 12, 2017, 03:32:39 AM
So... results time. This was an interesting round, I'll give you that.

First off: The melodies:

#1
Spiral Mountain - Banjo-Kazooie:

This was kinda sad. Freaking spiral mountain only got 2 correct guesses. Then again, I used a less commonly known section, so I'll let it slide.
[close]
#2
Shadow Man Stage - Mega Man 3:

I was hoping the fact that this song is in Smash 4 would get it more guesses than the obvious two. Unfortunately not.
[close]
#3
Lilycove City - Pokemon Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald Versions:

The top 3 people all got this one right. Maybe the section chose was a bit too tricky, but I didn't know which one to pick anyway.
[close]
#4
Bonus Barrel - Donkey Kong 64:

:\

This is one of those songs that "if you've played the game, you will know it", and so naturally nobody's played it. Oh well.
[close]
#5
Professor Oak's Lab - Pokemon Red, Blue and Yellow Versions:

Pokemon. Instant mass guesses. 6 people got this one.
[close]
#6
Space Junk Road - Super Mario Galaxy:

This was one of those cases where I tried to pick a popular song, but a less memorable section of it. Didn't work, and 6 people got it.
[close]
#7
Going Shopping in Seaside Town - Super Mario RPG:

I love this song. So do 4 other people. Nice.
[close]
#8
Title Screen - Mario Kart Wii:

*insert screaming mastersuperfan here*

This was another one of those mean cases, except clearly it was more effective. Everyone knows the first section, and even more people know the latter section, considering it's in almost every Mario Kart. My trick did not work on 2 people.
[close]
#9
Forest of Illusion - Super Mario World:

This was meant to be the "give-me" point. Naturally, 8 people got it. If you never played the game, you've heard it in the cartoon. If you've never seen Mama Luigi, there's something wrong with you you may have heard it elsewhere anyway.
[close]
#10
Waluigi Stadium & Wario Colloseum - Mario Kart: Double Dash!!:

Wah. 7 people got this. Beautiful.
[close]
#11
Ringside - Rhythm Heaven Fever:

I picked this song because I figured memes would make it more obvious, much to mastersuperfan's dismay. 4 people got this one.
[close]
#12
Isle o' Hags - Banjo-Tooie:

I picked the hub world theme thinking more people would get it. Shows how many of the people actively guessing have played the game. 1 person got this.
[close]
#13
Plug Man Stage - Mega Man 9

*insert screaming Dudeman here*

Was hoping another person guessing here had played Mega Man 9 who wasn't the one person you know got it. Nevermind I guess.
[close]
#14
Flowering Night - Touhou 9: Phantasmagoria of Flower View:

I can only pick certain Touhou songs if I want more than 2-3 people guessing them. This one is famous for this (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vS_a8Edde8k) remix, but just knowing that wasn't enough. Despite that, 7 people got it.
[close]
#15
Night Battle Music A - Sonic Unleashed:

Anybody who's played this game definitely will know this song. However, the only person who got it did it through memes (I think).
[close]


And the winner is...
Dudeman!
With a score of 10/15. Wonderful playing.

THC, not only have i played Super Mario Galaxy, I mainly remember it from this:

(https://www.mariowiki.com/images/thumb/f/fb/Super_Mario_Galaxy-_Original_Soundtrack.jpg/200px-Super_Mario_Galaxy-_Original_Soundtrack.jpg)

Got it in 4th grade from my grandparents. Listened to it all the time in my room.

Also, Insig is apparently a fan of Super Mario World (the cartoon) as I am. We are making great friends.

You see, this is a melody quiz, and so I decided to put in the melody, not the accompaniment. Thank you.

Title Screen - Mario Kart Wii:

*insert screaming mastersuperfan here*

This was another one of those mean cases, except clearly it was more effective. Everyone knows the first section, and even more people know the latter section, considering it's in almost every Mario Kart. My trick did not work on 2 people.

ffffffff I knew it was familiar, those last three measures especially

But in my defense, I have custom music modded for my MKWii title screen because I don't even like this one that much.

I actually installed an entire custom music pack so I can change the music for anything whenever I want

But for the record, the title screen music mod is the only one I keep on at all times lul

Btw the music pack came along with the CTGP (Custom Track Grand Prix) Revolution pack which is totally awesome, hundreds of custom tracks and continuing online service, y'all should install it too

Actually, the chord changes. It's supposed to be like that.

Although, now that I think about it, I probably should have included the whole chord for each of them. It does sound weird with the one harmony line instead of the whole chord.

My schedule's off-kilter right now, so I may as well post this just before I go to bed.

Here's my third Guess-The-Song Quiz:
[PDF] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZYW9FT1VIc1Voa0k) | [MIDI (MSCZ)] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZVTI1dDBYRVUzUTA) | [MIDI (MUS)] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZV015WXNHTE1QdVU) | [MUS] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZRDhfR25xWkJsbTA) | [MSCZ] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZRVVGeXRWZWZuM1E)

The MUS is readable in Finale, including Finale Notepad. The MSCZ is readable in Musescore. One MIDI is based on the MUS. All other files are based on the original MSCZ, not the MUS--this explains why the PDF doesn't look like the MUS.
The MUS and the MIDI made from the MUS may display and/or play back bugged. The MSCZ and PDF shouldn't. The MIDI made from the MSCZ doesn't play caesuras (boo!), but it should otherwise should play back bug-free.
(That's it--back to a whole bar of rest between melodies for me.)

Surprise--I've included exactly 6 Kirby songs in this quiz, and they're all in a bonus section! All Kirby songs are labelled #1k through #6k. I will reveal separate tallies for the main section, the Kirby bonus section, and both sections combined when I post the results.

With that being said, the rest of the songs are from a wide array of series, and they're likely more difficult overall than my second quiz. Don't worry if you know only one song--you might be the only one to get it right!

You can PM answers to me until Saturday, June 17 at 1:00 PM MDT (a.k.a. Saturday, June 17 8:00 PM forum default time). I will not count any submissions made after that time, as I'll be too busy tallying results.
Results will be posted shortly afterwards.

Some guidelines for answering, how the melodies are transcribed, and what counts as a correct answer:

On that note, answers will be posted anywhere from 12:00 to 3:00 pm EST, so get your answers in by then. It'd be best to get them in by the first section of that time because that's probably when they're going up.

Unexpected events have pushed the time back to a few hours from now.

A question for you all that I've been thinking on for a bit:

So one of my favorite YouTubers often overlays music from other video games on gameplay footage (namely, Mario Kart Wii... ha). Normally he lists the names of the music in the description, but there's this one awesome track in one of his older videos that for some reason he didn't name. I've been dying to figure out what it is for a while now, but I've never been able to find it, which has led me to consider this: would you all be okay with me putting the track on my next melody quiz as a bonus even if I don't know what it is? I'd like to hope that someone can recognize and perhaps tell me what it is. I don't see any harm in putting it on myself, but since I don't know the source I'm erring a bit on the side of caution.

Here are the answers to my latest quiz:

~~~~~Main Section~~~~~

#1
"Corneria", from Star Fox, used as a level theme
Timestamp: 0:22

I wanted to start off this quiz with an easy melody, just like last time. Turns out it was so easy that mastersuperfan took the first 4 bars in a previous quiz. You all got stuck with the last 5 bars I transcribed instead.

4 out of 7 people got this correct.
People who got this correct
Dudeman, mastersuperfan, WaluigiTime64, Yug_Guy

[close]

#2
"Vs. Ridley"/"Big Boss Confrontation BGM (Ridley, Draygon)"/"Ridley's Theme", from Super Metroid, used as Ridley and Draygon's boss theme in that game
Timestamp: 0:09

This theme ends up being used as Ridley's theme in subsequent Metroid games. ...And Meta Ridley's theme. And Omega Ridley's theme. And Ridley's clone son's theme. And Ridley's X Parasite imitator's theme. Nobody pays attention to Draygon.

This is the first melody in this quiz that, while it sounds like it's in a different key from the original, actually isn't--it's just that the original song is in multiple keys, including the key of the melody itself.

4 out of 7 people got this correct.
People who got this correct
Dudeman, mastersuperfan, Static, Yug_Guy
[close]
[close]

#3
"Loonboon"/"Loon Boon", from Plants vs. Zombies, used as the minigame theme
Timestamp: 0:00

Ahhh, Wall-nut Bowling...my favourite Plants vs. Zombies minigame! It's pretty good for farming in-game cash, but it's also darn fun and requires at least a little bit of strategy, IMO.

Maybe this isn't the most well-known Plants vs. Zombies song, but it's darn near the only one I remember, which is why I picked this as the Plants vs. Zombies test song.

Based on how many of you got this right, maybe I should learn more Plants vs. Zombies songs.

2 out of 7 people got this correct.

#4
"Healing Sound"/"PokeCenter Healing Sound", from pretty much every Pokemon main series game (starting with Pokemon Red and Pokemon Blue), used right when your Pokemon get healed in a PokeCenter
Timestamp: 0:00

It's likely not on any OST, but if you've ever played a Pokemon main series game with the sound on, chances are this jingle is ingrained in your head.

I accepted pretty much any name that indicated that you at least sorta knew where that melody was from, including names not listed above.

6 out of 7 people got this correct.

#5
"Solar Sect of Mystic Wisdom ~ Nuclear Fusion"/"Nuclear Fusion", from Touhou Chireiden ~ Subterranean Animism, used as Utsuho Reiuji's boss theme
Timestamp: 0:00

This was one of my backups for my second quiz--like a few of the melodies in that quiz, it's so highly repetitive that it repeats the same two-bar riff 4 times. The next 8 bars of that song actually repeat the same riff 3 more times (and slightly modify it the 4th time), this time in different octaves and tempos.

(I actually find the rest of the song sorta dull in comparison, but at least it has a more intricate structure than most other Touhou songs. Oh well, that riff is killer!)

2 out of 7 people got this correct.

Static, WaluigiTime64

#6
"Soviet March", from Command & Conquer: Red Alert 3, used as the title theme
Timestamp: 0:24

This song is so famous that it has a special mention on its composer's Wikipedia page (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Hannigan) (and I've never edited a Wikipedia page, ever, so that's saying something). Tens of millions of views across all YouTube videos, seven million views in the one above alone, gets into streaming services...at least one of you has to recognize a song this popular, right?

...Luckily, one of you did.

1 out of 7 people got this correct.

#7
"Battle with Gruntilda"/"Final Battle", from Banjo-Kazooie, used as Gruntilda's final boss theme

This was placed far away from #2 so you wouldn't notice that melodies that sound like they're not in the same key as the obvious answer but actually are still from the obvious answer are a sub-theme of this quiz.

...Maybe Gruntilda's final boss theme wasn't the obvious answer for you, though. I rejected "Gruntilda's Lair" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FWhKyk-4j6I) because it never plays in D minor, unlike this melody.

This song has a lot of sections, and I encourage you to use other portions in your future quizzes! Some of its chord progressions are pretty unorthodox, for starters...

"Simple Sight", from Castle Crashers, used as the Necromancer's boss theme
Timestamp: 0:43

As one of the most prominent songs in Castle Crashers and a beloved boss theme, I picked this as the test song for Castle Crashers.

This is the first song in this quiz that isn't originally from a video game--check it out on Newgrounds (http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/120136)! Yes, songs not originally for video games are a sub-theme of this quiz.

And yes, this song optionally comes with lyrics! Hear how well its composer sings here (http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/382392). (OK, it's a bit caveat emptor...)

Perhaps Castle Crashers's soundtrack is more obscure than I thought...or maybe picking the chorus wasn't the best idea, but that starting melody actually always sounded a bit ambiguous to me...

"Electroman Adventures", from Geometry Dash, used as a rhythm game stage theme
Timestamp: 0:28

This is the second song in this quiz that isn't originally from a video game--check it out on Newgrounds (http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/479319)! Heck, Geometry Dash shortened this song.

Since you can create a level out of any Newgrounds song in Geometry Dash, only songs in the original version of Geometry Dash count as being from that game, IMO. Luckily, this song is one of them.

A funny story: I was introduced to Waterflame's music through his works in Castle Crashers. I listened to a lot more Waterflame songs on his YouTube channel, and I figured out that this is my favourite! ...And then I found out that it's in Geometry Dash. Yup, that's why I picked it as the Geometry Dash test song.

Based on how few of you got this correct, sounds like I'm not trying out any more Geometry Dash songs.

"Menu", from Mario Power Tennis

Believe it or not, this is composed by Motoi Sakuraba. Y'know, Motoi Sakuraba, progressive rock composer (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motoi_Sakuraba), composer of the Dark Souls and Golden Sun soundtracks, arranger of that heavy metal version of "Gourmet Race" in Super Smash Bros.

"J-E-N-O-V-A", from Final Fantasy VII, used as Jenova∙BIRTH and Jenova∙DEATH's boss theme (and, more awkwardly, Hojo's boss theme)
Timestamp: 0:59

It's one of the most famous songs in Final Fantasy VII--that's why I picked it. Given how few people got "To Zanarkand" (another famous Final Fantasy song) correct across two quizzes, and given how poorly this melody performed, this may be the last time I pick a Final Fantasy song for a quiz.

"Elite Four Battle"/"Vs. Elite Four"/"Battle! Elite Four", from Pokemon Sun and Pokemon Moon
Timestamp: 0:52

This is among my favourite songs in Pokemon Sun and Pokemon Moon, so I picked it. I thought that perhaps the first 8 bars might be too hard to get, so I added the next 4 bars--the start of the loop. I personally think this song has one of the best transitions back to the start of the loop of any VGM theme I've ever heard--hearing the start of the loop in that different a context really pumps it up.

"The Battle of Lil' Slugger", from Super Meat Boy, used as that game's Chapter 1 Boss theme
Timestamp: 0:38

Unlucky #13 is a melody so fast that its notes blur together, likely ensuring that any transcriptions of it are hard to trust. I'd much rather use this melody in a quiz than that dang section of Galacta Knight's theme with the solo in it (which I used in my previous quiz). At least I can trust I transcribed this melody accurately...

As it's somewhat popular, I thought this would be a decent barometer of the popularity of Super Meat Boy's music, which is why I picked it as the test song for that game. Seeing as the only person who got this right used a Super Meat Boy song in one of his previous quizzes, sounds like we collectively don't know this soundtrack.

"The Long Distance of Murder", from F-Zero X, used as the theme for the Red Canyon racetrack
Timestamp: 0:01

"Mute City" is very popular. "Big Blue" is very popular. I wanted a more obscure F-Zero song, as I thought that F-Zero is a series that's under-represented in these quizzes.

I hoped this wasn't too obscure--there's got to be a reason why there's so many requests for a GaMetal cover of this song. There's also got to be reasons why  (http://jonnyatma.com/gametal/dreamchaser.html)Jonny Atma of GaMetal  (http://jonnyatma.com/gametal/firefield.html)keeps apologizing for not covering this song next... (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tznFcq8WIvk)

...But I guess it was too obscure.

"Flowers of Antimony (The Explodatorium)", from Shovel Knight, used as the Explodatorium's stage theme
Timestamp: 0:38

I marked Plague Knight's boss theme, "The Vital Vitriol" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bhO4BdvHrjs), as wrong because it modifies this melody.

Any song using the whole tone scale is probably going to be unintuitively harmonized, which is why I picked this melody.

This melody is 7 bars long because there's no way I'm transcribing those runs in the next bar--not even with the .nsf.

"Spaceport Alpha", from Diddy Kong Racing, used as the theme for the racetrack of the same name
Timestamp: 0:23

I accepted "Spacedust Alley" from Diddy Kong Racing DS (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7NPw7cyUfic) because it contains this melody...and "Spaceport Alpha" from Diddy Kong Racing DS doesn't (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QrMG7v__3t0), so I marked that as incorrect.

I haven't heard much Diddy Kong Racing music in these quizzes, so I decided to put this song in because it's one of the most well-known...despite being in the final set of racetracks unlocked in that game.

...Welp, maybe this is why I don't see Diddy Kong Racing melodies in these quizzes...nobody guessed this song...

"Baby Park", from Mario Kart: Double Dash!!, used as the theme for the racetrack of the same name

This is yet another "melody that only sounds like it's in a different key from the original song"--turns out that this theme keeps going up a semitone until it hits this melody. It makes sense that this is one of the only songs in Mario Kart: Double Dash!! that doesn't go up only one semitone during the final lap. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BOll4U_gEXc)

"Under My Control", from Kirby's Return to Dream Land, used as Magolor's first final boss theme (and Magolor EX's only boss theme)
Timestamp: 1:55

I purposefully picked this song because it was already used in a previous quiz...but this melody is in different time signatures from the rest of the piece. Metrically, this section goes crazy, and I'm not 100% sure I'd actually use that combination of time signatures in a full transcription.

Nevertheless, I thought the previous quiz's melody was harder to get than this one, so I expected several of you to get this right. ...Sounds like it was a lot fewer than last time.

"Battle with Meta Knight"/"Meta Knight's Theme"/"Vs. Meta Knight", from Kirby Super Star

I also accepted Meta Knight's boss theme from Kirby Super Star Ultra (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qpAEAZ1zsKc) (which adds in some accompaniment lines and messes around with the pitch bending) and Mecha Knight's boss theme from Kirby: Planet Robobot (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ne4mR7Mi7VI). I did not accept Meta Knight's boss theme from Kirby's Epic Yarn (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K2bsybeS2yY), as it modifies this melody.

This song is significantly harder to figure out once I remove the harmonies of its fifth to eighth bars, right?

The good news is that I finally recovered my earlier transcriptions of this piece, so I can try to transcribe its solo for the third time and check how consistent I am...

...how the heck has Kirby music been by far the hardest to transcribe completely rhythmically accurately so far for me?

Whether it's coincidence that this sounds like Ridley's theme, who knows...

"Checker Knights", from Kirby Air Ride, used as the theme for the racetrack of the same name
Timestamp: 0:48

This is the last song in this quiz that isn't originally from a video game: this was originally composed for the Kirby anime, Kirby: Right Back at Ya! I guess it fits its original scene fine. (https://youtu.be/IG1xdky1-6w?t=15m34s)

This melody also starts off with a pretty unintuitive tune--four perfect fifths, each a minor third apart. Because it therefore sounds like a diminished seventh, it fits uneasily into any key, which is partially why I picked it.

"Grand Doomer", from Kirby's Return to Dream Land, used as Grand Doomer and Grand Doomer EX's boss theme
Timestamp: 0:06

I used a 16th-note tremolo to attempt to emulate the weirdly fluctuating synth of the melody. It's probably not 100% accurate. The accents are just to separate the tremolo'd notes from each other.

I picked this song because it has a fairly unintuitive harmonization. ...Yet again. The rest of the song gets even worse, though.

...Which might be why none of you remembered it, despite several of you remembering Kirby's Return to Dream Land music.

As for where else this theme is found? Let's just say that the Kirby series has a history of putting its boss themes on the wrong bosses.

"Squeak Boss Battle"/"Boss (Doc's Machines And Daroach)"/"Troubling Situation", from Kirby: Squeak Squad, used as the Squeak Squad's boss theme

Gotta love it when the first loop of the song extends the first note of the melody slightly, eh?

I figured this might be too hard with only the D minor excerpt, so I also put in the previous 4 bars (the C minor excerpt you all are likely more familiar with). This is the closest the Kirby bonus section gets to a "melody that only sounds like it's in a different key from the original song".

Also, there's no way I'm ever transcribing those mouse squeaks in Bars 4 and 8 for a Guess-The-Song Quiz.

I put this theme last because, as far as I can tell, it's the least well-known and the most hated of the Kirby melodies I picked. I personally think the final boss theme of that game (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5kcKDUF8MiQ) is far too relaxing to be appropriate for any boss fight, but YMMV...

After listening to the regular battle music and the regular boss music (oh, and several other boss themes and the final boss themes) of Final Fantasy VIII at least a few times each, I still can't remember any of their tunes. And I've barely heard of any Final Fantasy VI tunes (I've heard it has boss themes), so of course I don't remember any of them. I guess Final Fantasy X's track record isn't bad, as I remember at least one other theme from that game.

In the meantime, I can sing at least four Final Fantasy VII songs off the top of my head (at least partially thanks to how many arrangements I've heard of them in comparison), so it wins for me.

Oh, by the way, I wish NocturneOfShadow's quiz has melody numbers. I was forced to use measure numbers in my guess PM instead.

And it's very skill-based, since it takes a considerable amount of practice to be able to maneuver and control your character well, something which MK7 and MK8 lack (especially MK7, lol). It's got pretty damn good track design, which is what puts it two steps ahead of SMK (along with the fact that SC has all of SMK's courses anyways). On top of that is a ton of shortcut potential, and a lot of those shortcuts take skill and practice as well (see: Rainbow Road).

Quote from: LeviR.star on June 17, 2017, 08:25:54 PM2. Why is Double Dash in front of DS?

Better track design, primarily. All Cup Tour. And better music as well, in my opinion. The controls have a more slippery and slide-y feel to them, which makes this a game that both takes a lot of practice and is wildly fun because of how dynamic races can be. The drifting and mini-turbos are probably the best here than in any other game, as you can get them out frequently (which is very satisfying) but not so much to the point where it breaks both the game and your thumb. (Snaking is still fun in MKDS, but it's exhausting.) Unlike Wii and SC, it's not a game I play with the aim of becoming better competitively, but more of a great party game (which is still fun single-player, too).

Quote from: LeviR.star on June 17, 2017, 08:25:54 PM3. Why is 8 so low on the list?

8's not a bad game by any means, but I have to put those four in front of it because of pure gameplay. In terms of visuals, 8 definitely wins, and it stands on par with the others on music and track design. But the gameplay is far more shallow, as it lacks the maneuvering skill required in SMK and SC, the drifting ability in DD or DS, or the inside-drifting bikes from Wii (yes, I know there are "inside-drifting bikes" in MK8, but they're really not the same at all). One of the biggest things that definitely hurts it is the lack of shortcuts, which is what makes Wii and SC have amazing gameplay and 7 and 8 have lackluster play instead. You try to go an inch off the side of the track and Lakitu brings you back on right away.

Quote from: LeviR.star on June 17, 2017, 08:25:54 PM4. Why is 64 in last?? I mean I know it's ridiculously overrated but come on.

Because you can be driving on a straight road and then all of a sudden Toad goes AWAWAWA and starts spinning out when the last thing you crashed into was a wall ten seconds ago. Not to mention the fact that three characters are better in every single stat than the others besides weight. The music is decent... but the track design is very disappointing. A lot of tracks such as Luigi Raceway, Mario Raceway, Wario Stadium, DK Jungle Parkway, etc... are nothing but long stretches of track where all the obstacles aren't even on the track themselves. And most of the other tracks with some obstacles have plenty of flat, bland, long stretches anyways (Banshee Boardwalk, Rainbow Road, Frappe Snowland). But the train in Kalimari Desert is cool; I'll give it that.

my favourite mkwii music is the menu theme because many hours were spent syncing remotes and choosing characters and karts and courses and getting angry at each other even before the game started because someone is taking their sweet time choosing a character or a kart or a course

  • One of them is from a Kirby game.
  • One of them is from a Pokémon game.
  • One of them is from a Zelda game.
  • One of them from some random other series. It is playable on a Nintendo system (may or may not be a Nintendo exclusive).

As of now, 17 of the 25 melodies have been guessed currently (not including the bonus). Each unguessed melody is definitely capable of being guessed by at least one person, or so I believe...

As of right now, the person in second place is 1 point below the person in first place. It's a close game...

Scores are a lot lower right now than they probably should be. Quite a few of you really should be able to get another one, if not several more... I can't believe that there are three of you who all missed one I was expecting you all to get. It's currently among the unguessed.

Updates to the hints and the scoreboard are below:

Hints
  • Other than Mario, Kirby, Pokémon, and Zelda, no franchises or games are repeated.
  • There are at most two melodies, if any, unguessed from each of the four main franchises.
  • The remaining unguessed melodies are all from games playable on Nintendo systems.
  • Last round, I had about 10 tracks that were in Smash. This time, I believe I only have... 3 nope, at least 4. Only one person knows all of them.

Note: The Mario series includes games starring any set of characters in the Mario universe, including Donkey Kong, Yoshi, Captain Toad, and the like.

We now have... 18 out of 25 melodies guessed. That's 1 more than before. Better than 0, I suppose?

There's one unguessed melody in here that four of you probably should have gotten already. At least one of you has mentioned that it sounds familiar, which is a good sign. Trust your instincts; if something sounds like you know it, you probably do.

Nearly everyone who has already guessed so far is capable of getting at least one more, and I imagine if none of you get any more, quite a few of you will be rather upset--some of you far more than others. Just as a little foreshadowing for the results post...

The scores are very close. It's still anyone's game.

Updates to the hints and the scoreboard are below:

Hints
  • Other than Mario, Kirby, Pokémon, and Zelda, no franchises or games are repeated.
  • The remaining unguessed melodies at this point (5, 6, 8, 10, 14, 20, 22) are all from games playable on Nintendo systems. All of them except one are Nintendo exclusives.
  • Last round, I had about 10 tracks that were in Smash. This time, I only have 4. Only one person knows all of them.
  • For three of the four main series, there is one track left unguessed. For the fourth, there are two tracks left. In other words, no series has been completely guessed out yet.
  • One of the remaining unguessed melodies is being played by an erhu.

Note: The Mario series includes games starring any set of characters in the Mario universe, including Donkey Kong, Yoshi, Captain Toad, and the like.

By the way, for anyone who didn't see my post before the start of the round: the bonus track is a melody that one of the YouTubers that I am subscribed used in a video, but he did not list the source for that one track. I don't actually know what it is, but I put it on as a bonus with the hopes that somebody else would know it. So far, it seems like nobody does.

And now time for a third update (and possibly the final one unless a few more people arrive). kenniky has notified me that he'll be posting his quiz tomorrow sometime during the night, so I'll let guesses for this quiz run until around 5:00 PM Thursday afternoon (EST). Some of you could probably use the time to see if you could get a little more...

As of now, there are 19 out of 25 melodies guessed. Once again, that's 1 more than the last update (in particular, #14 was the one that got recognized).

Scores are even closer now. If you want to know exactly how close... the current top 4 scorers are all within 2 points of each other.

I've added quite a few hints in regard to the unguessed ones below, so take a look:

Hints
  • Other than Mario, Kirby, Pokémon, and Zelda, no franchises or games are repeated.
  • Last round, I had about 10 tracks that were in Smash. This time, I only have 4. Two people know all of them.
Hints regarding the currently unguessed melodies (5, 6, 8, 10, 20, 22):
  • One of them is from a Mario game in which Mario is the main character.
  • One of them is from a game that takes place in the Mario universe but in which Mario is not a playable character.
  • One of them is from a Kirby game.
  • One of them is from a Pokémon game.
  • One of them is from a Zelda game.
  • One of them from some random other series. It is playable on a Nintendo system (may or may not be a Nintendo exclusive).
  • One of those six is being played by an erhu.

...#25 hasn't turned purple yet. That makes me a little sad.

On the other hand, I suppose the blue color is fitting... if you know what I mean.

EDIT: One more note. When listening back on the original tracks, I noticed that the part I transcribed in #5 actually appears to be played in straight eighths even though the rest of the instruments are playing in swing at the same time. However, very soon afterwards the same melody is repeated by a different instrument in swing (i.e. how I notated it), except it is tranposed an octave down. Thus, I've changed the melody in my quiz to be an octave lower. I doubt it will make a difference to anyone, but I just thought I'd point it out and fix it before someone criticized my transcription after hearing the original.

TL;DR transpose #5 an octave down and get rid of the first grace note

I've decided to instead post the answers at 12:00 PM (noon) EST tomorrow instead of at 5:00 due to some... growing impatience for the answers. (You know who you are.) I was holding out a bit longer in the hopes that some more guessers who normally participate would show up for this round... but it seems unlikely that they'll join in at this point. On the other hand, I did receive some answers from a couple more members whom I did not expect to participate, which is certainly not a bad thing...

By the way, you know what's funny? When people use songs from one game in their melody quiz and then I do another track from the same game and then they don't know it.

Quote from: mastersuperfan on June 21, 2017, 05:14:30 PMBy the way, you know what's funny? When people use songs from one game in their melody quiz and then I do another track from the same game and then they don't know it.
I don't memorize entire OSTs and I don't expect anyone else here to do so, which means I don't think that people knowing only some tracks from a game is funny.

Now, using another excerpt from an already used song and finding that fewer people know the second excerpt is funnier...(though possibly not by that much...)

Also, I kind of want to do a rough ordering of difficulty/obscurity

Easy: 6, 7 The most common, should be the most known
Medium: 10, 11 Decently well known songs from popular games
Harder: 1, 2, 5, 9 If you've played this game you know this song
Hard: 3, 13, 14, 15 Slightly more obscure songs from not-as-mainstream games
Insane: 8, 12 I'll be impressed if you know these

Kenniky: Many of your melodies are hard to guess because they aren't transcribed correctly. I'll flat out say that I knew number 11 but would not have guessed it if not for your note about there being lyrics because of how incorrect/inaccurate it is written. I recognize at least four more that are this bad... and I have a feeling that there are others that are beyond my guessing because of this...
Title: Re: LeviR.star's Somewhat Triweekly Guess-That-Melody Quiz!
Post by: mastersuperfan on June 22, 2017, 09:00:00 AM
Well, this was... quite a round, if I do say so myself. We had 11 participants this round, which is not bad, though I was sorely missing a few members who certainly would've helped patch up the list of unguessed melodies... I had thought that the quiz was a little easier, but scores were overall a little lower this time (for most people, at least), perhaps because I didn't include as many iconic melodies as I did last time...
 
Before I reveal the answers, I want to discuss one thing first that many people may not have picked up on: the theme of the quiz.
 
So what was the theme?
Snow.
 
Yes, that's right. I always love the tracks that play in wintery settings. They evoke a sort of calm, peaceful mood... or in other tracks, an upbeat, Christmas-y feel as well.
 
All of you however, recognized at least one track that wasn't related to snow or ice. With my quiz being themed around this one type of setting, I didn't want to make it too easy for participants to be able to look up tracks that play in snowy or wintery locations and score a whole lot more. As a result, every melody number that was a multiple of 3 was a melody unrelated (or only tangentially related) to the theme.
 
Unfortunately, the majority of participants didn't even recognize enough melodies to realize what I was trying to go for here. Only two made a note of it when submitting their answers (although it's possible more of you noticed and didn't mention it). It's a little disappointing, I must say...

Also in: Super Smash Bros. Brawl (https://youtu.be/EDOID_oeOTw?t=54s), Super Smash Bros. for Wii U (https://youtu.be/wkT652f4IPM?t=55s)
 
The quiz starts off with a rather well-known Kirby track, or at least so I thought because it plays during the Subspace Emissary. As a result, a fair number of people got it. I am not disappointed. Not that disappointed, at least.

"Vanilla Lake" - Super Mario Kart

Also in: Mario Kart: Super Circuit (https://youtu.be/entqoCCMbkk)
 
I will say that Snow Land from Super Circuit was a very close contender for this spot in my quiz, but in the end I went with this one because we haven't seen a Super Mario Kart melody in these quizzes before. All of the SNES courses appeared in Super Circuit as retro courses anyways, though that didn't mean Dudeman was able to get this one...

I'll admit I was a little surprised that quite a few people got this one, as I hardly remember this one from the game myself (and I've played OoT quite a lot). But you all know Zelda music a lot better than I do.

At first I was planning to use Route 216, and then I thought to myself... "That's too easy." So I went and picked this one instead (which I didn't even remember except for the first 10 seconds), and then I think I made it too hard. Oops. Although the lack of correct answers could easily be attributed to the fact that Insig and Lux didn't participate this time...

"Id (Hope)" - Fire Emblem Awakening
 

Timestamp: 0:28

One of the more obscure ones on here, I added this one in to give the Fire Emblem fans a chance to redeem themselves. I suppose it's good enough that one of them did. Although this melody isn't very easy to hear in-game, the first five notes comprise the shared motif between all of the Id themes, so I figured it would at least hint to some people that it was from this game.

Good ol' Rhythm Heaven. I love this track. I should really play this game. Lux should have been here for this round. Oh, well.
 
I was considering using the melody at 0:38, but I thought that might have been a little too recognizable, so I toned it down a bit by using the part right before. It's the same part as the snippet used in Remix 10, though, so it wasn't that much harder.

I intentionally kept this excerpt short because it's one of the most well-known tracks in the game. Fewer people than expected were able to get this one than I thought, or perhaps that's just because of... the lack of Pokémon fans in this round.

I like this remix a lot more than the original, actually. (Dudeman agrees.) Probably because of Brawl nostalgia. It's pretty well-known since it plays during a whole level in the Subspace Emissary, though I transcribed one of the less distinct parts so that not everyone would be able to recognize it.

The transcription for this one did get a little tricky because of those echoing notes, so I ended up writing the melody in a way that sounded the most natural and the least abrupt on playback. I don't think it should have affected your recognition of it, though, since the melody and rhythm are rather distinct (especially the chord in that last measure). But darn. If only Levi were here...
 
...By the way, you remember how I picked that one track, Radish Ruins, for my quiz two rounds ago? Well, this happened not long afterwards:

3. There are quite a few here that I'm disappointed I didn't recognize.

The bonus song sounds like a GaMetal remix to me--I wouldn't be surprised if it's only a fan remix of an actual VGM song. With that being said, it does sound like a credits theme to me, and I wouldn't be surprised if it were from a Mario game.

EDIT: On further analysis, the instrumentation doesn't really sound like a match for GaMetal, and there's evidence that the song loops less than 2 minutes in, so it may not be a credits theme. The comments on that YouTube video indicates that the bonus song sounds similar to "Seaside Hill" from Sonic Heroes (below), though it doesn't sound like a close enough match to me:

Post by: WaluigiTime64 on June 22, 2017, 02:16:15 PM
what if the bonus song was just a composition meant to confuse people

Also arrangements can be however loose the arranger wants, although I don't imagine this was the case.
(maybe you should just straight up ask them lol)

No, actually. But apparently, I can't count. That's isn't anything new. It was only 4 of them, which were:
- Frozen Hillside
- Snowman
- Bramble Blast
- Ice Cap Zone

I didn't have any theme in mind though. Good thing I didn't start on the quiz yet. In return, I'm gonna include the stupidest idea possible on my next one.

Well, after numerous delays my 3rd melody quiz is finally here:

Melody Guessing Contest
"Three's a Crowd" (6/24/17) - MUS (https://www.dropbox.com/s/5sbsahe80ktwc9w/Levis%20Quiz%206.24.17.mus?dl=1) - MIDI (https://www.dropbox.com/s/h47w4d1xl75tac1/Levis%20Quiz%206.24.17.mid?dl=1) - PDF (https://www.dropbox.com/s/3lpju417643q6eh/Levis%20Quiz%206.24.17.pdf?dl=0)

Similar to last time, this quiz contains 20 melodies split into four difficulty categories: Mild, Hot, Spicy, and Burning Up. Songs in Mild and Hot are strictly from Nintendo franchises, Spicy may contain songs from third-party franchises heavily associated with Nintendo (Harvest Moon, Castlevania, Mega Man, Professor Layton, etc.), and songs in Burning Up can be from any game ever.

You'll have until about 6:00 p.m. on Monday, June 26th to get your answers in via PM. If you know ahead of time that you won't be able to get your answers in until sometime after 6 on Monday, let me know via PM and I can try to delay the answers until later that evening. I for sure will not delay them into Tuesday, since work will prevent me from posting the answers until nighttime.

With all of that out of the way, I'd like to wish everybody good luck!

Hate to run mine concurrently, but I'm gonna be away at school for most of tomorrow (even though classes are over and my exams are on the day after) because I hate my life.

So, have a go at mine! It's free!

I will also post results early on Wednesday because later that day, I might not be in a suitable state to type up a results post. (Then again, when have I ever?) Just warning y'all.

Anyway, some hints on the unguessed ones so far:
1 - Not originally for a Nintendo game, but a remix of it *is* in a Nintendo game. I wonder why?
2 - I think this one's gone unguessed because the memelords haven't yet submitted their answers.
3 - If it sounds like something, it's probably that thing. But in a Nintendo game.
13 - Not a Nintendo game. Reminds me of Tim Hortons.
15 - I can't even use a meme as a hint here or it'd be too obvious. Well, as it stands, it's kinda difficult, but if I included the lower voice here, it'd be pretty obvious. Super famous. Not a Nintendo game.
22 - barfk barfk
23 - Super famous. Except for this part, apparently.

By the way, the bottom text in the PDF is also a hint!

#23 sounds like a certain Kirby song (which probably isn't super famous), so I'll need to verify...

But first, did you all guess the theme for this quiz? Take a look and see if you were right:
The Theme
[close]

Anyway, let's get to the songs:

Mild

#1 (8/8)
F-Zero - "Big Blue"
Melody at 0:08

This song needs no introduction. I put this in as #1 as a 'gimme', and since everybody guessed it, I'd say that plan worked out quite well.
[close]

#2 (6/8)
Super Mario Land - "Muda Kingdom"
Melody at 0:15

Also, SML1 > SML2. fite me

#3 (6/8)
Pokemon Red & Blue Version - "Cycling"
Melody at 0:16

Another easy melody. I fondly remember this as the song that played during the Ekans minigame in the original Pokemon Stadium, and have loved this little tune ever since.
[close]

#4 (3/8)
Kirby's Dream Land - "Bubbly Clouds"
Melody at 0:21

...I still don't understand how so many of you missed this one. Shouldn't the Kirby's Dreamland soundtrack be burned into all of our brains by now? No?
[close]

#5 (5/8)
Zelda II: The Adventure of Link - "Overworld"
Melody at 0:12

While Zelda II is a bit of a let down gameplay-wise, the music's still pretty good. It's certainly memorable enough that half the participants were able to guess it.
[close]

Hot

#6 (0/8)
Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest - "Mining Melancholy"
Melody at 1:24

I'm surprised no one got this one at all. I mean, I'll concede that I chose a part most of the way through the song, but there's gotta be someone familiar with this soundtrack, right? I'm starting to notice a trend here...
[close]

#7 (3/8)
Splatoon - "Seaskape"
Melody at 0:47

This is one of the battle themes that plays during matches in Splatoon. And for those of you wondering about the emphasis on the song title, well...

Spoiler
Quote from: NocturneOfShadow on June 24, 2017, 05:12:41 PM7. splatoon, do I need to know the name of the song too?  Pretty sure it's one of the stage themes but idk which one

#8 (5/8)
EarthBound - "Winters White"
Melody at 0:05

There's snow, I guess.
[close]

#9 (5/8)
The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening - "Ballad of the Wind Fish"
Melody at 0:00

I'm not sure if this is the actual "Ballad of the Wind Fish", or a version that plays elsewhere in the game, but considering how many of you knew it I'm sure it doesn't matter.
[close]

#10 (1/8)
Pokemon X & Y Version - "Shalour City"
Melody at 0:20

My aim was to use X & Y's unmemorable soundtrack to my advantage and stump some of you. Overall, it seemed to have worked.
[close]

Spicy

#11 (0/8)
Final Fantasy IV - "Prelude"
Melody at 0:58

I only realized only after I put up the quiz that the part I included only appears in FFIV's version of the Prelude. I probably should've used VI or VII's to give people a better chance of getting it. My apologies.
[close]

#12 (0/8)
Pokemon Snap - "Camera Check"
Melody at 0:00

Ah, good ol' Pokemon Snap. A game that, apparently a lot of you have never played. You poor, poor souls.
[close]

#13 (1/8)
Mega Man X3 - "Neon Tiger Stage"
Melody at 0:10

Deliberately chosen for it's similarities to the Guns 'N' Roses song "My Michelle" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=18dBU55S6P0). I figured that perhaps some people would recognize that song, do some digging, and find this one.

...as it turns out, most people aren't super-familiar with Mega Man or Guns 'N' Roses.
[close]

#14 (2/8)
Mario Kart DS - "Shroom Ridge"
Melody at 0:40

Remember kids, never challenge someone to a Mario Kart dick-measuring contest, because mastersuperfan and Latios will always win.
[close]

#15 (1/8)
Sonic the Hedgehog 3 - "Hydrocity Zone Act 1"
Melody at 0:37
(Might wanna turn off annotations for this one)
Thanks 5 Watching!1! (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s0p9nzXGyW0#t=03m45s)

[close]

Burning Up

#16 (0/8)
2064: Read Only Memories - "Both Sides of the Law (TOMCAT's Theme)
Melody at 0:00

Now, normally I'd disqualify a song like this from this quiz, being from an obscure indie game and all, if it weren't for the fact that I have a version of this song in my personal arrangement thread (https://goo.gl/9lRVf0). It's the literal first song in the thread.

...no, I'm not crying, why are you asking me?

#17 (1/8)
Hey You, Pikachu!
Melody at 0:00

Okay, this song would definitely never have been guessed if it weren't for the fact that Ambrella did a remix of this song for Pokemon Rumble.

...I don't blame any of you for not having played this game. It really isn't that great.

Blaster Master - "Area 1"
Melody at 0:07

I figured with the recent remaster Blaster Master Zero, some of you would recognize this song from that. Naaaaah, you guys just really like the original.

#19 (0/8)
Wonder Momo - "Transformation Theme"
Melody at 0:02

Is it an obscure melody from a somewhat-obscure Japanese Arcade game? Yeah. But is it in a Smash game? (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AvXT6tMzlnQ#t=03m20s). You betcha!
[close]

#20 (0/8)
Picross 3D Round 2 - "Cafe"
Melody at 0:00

And lastly, a song from quite possibly the most under-rated game to come out last year. I'll admit this one is a bit of a stretch, but I mainly did it for shits & giggles, so I'm totally okay with that.

Actually, I'm not disappointed in myself for this round. I wouldn't have recognized any of the ones I didn't get.

I verified that #23 is NOT Landia's theme from Kirby's Return to Dream Land (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oRkYZEWvtcg), even though that song sounds pretty close.

EDIT: InsigTurtle was generous enough to give me the series #23 is from, so I looked up songs from that series that I only know by name and got it on my first try.

I've given out hints to people who've commented on some of the melodies, but since it'd be unfair now, I'll let everyone know that the last one is from a Mario game.

...frik, I just realized, that took too long

holy crap

make that 7 stolen

(see this is what happens when you try to make "easy" sections for your quiz, they all get stolen)

EDIT: Olimar, yes, I'm aware I could just do a different part of the track. For most of these actually, I transcribed the same part and I have to change it now, whether to a different part or to a different song; for others, like #23, I'd rather not keep it now because I think every single person would get it on my quiz afterwards no matter what part I picked.

The reason for me having so many melodies stolen probably has to do with the fact that I've made two and a half quizzes in advance already...

Deliberately chosen for it's similarities to the Guns 'N' Roses song "My Michelle" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=18dBU55S6P0). I figured that perhaps some people would recognize that song, do some digging, and find this one.

I'll post answers in about 2 hours from now!

In the meantime, some more unhelpful hints!

3 - I don't like sand. It's coarse and – wait, whoops, that's the wrong movie. Not even the right movie franchise!
19 - I don't like sand. It's coarse and rough and irritating, and it gets everywhere.

Title: Re: LeviR.star's Somewhat Triweekly Guess-That-Melody Quiz!
Post by: InsigTurtle on June 28, 2017, 03:35:25 PM
I was going to, actually, but then I decided against it. I've had many ideas for quizzes, like sad melodies only (couldn't do because of Kirby), Eb minor only (couldn't do because of Kirby), DK Rap only (couldn't do because of Kirby), Kirby only (couldn't do because of Kirby), melodies that represent the looming darkness of the inevitable heat death of the universe (couldn't do because of Kirby), etc. etc. I really wanted to include some more Final Fantasy melodies, but I wasn't sure if they would have been guessed.

Anyway, some whoopsies:
1 - Apparently, the glissando in melody #21 plays back weirdly sometimes. I didn't listen to the MUS or the MIDI beforehand, so that was my bad!
2 - The tempo in #6 is q = 112 but it plays back as q = 88 because I was tired and I forgot to change the expression definition.

Since this melody quiz (I think at least) is a bit more challenging than usual, I have some hopefully helpful hints:

Hints
  • None of the melodies are from the same game franchise.
  • 8 of the melodies are from major first-party Nintendo franchises.
  • The earliest game featured in this melody quiz was released in 1989; the latest was released in 2013.

Results! I am very "tired" at the moment and not at all ready to write up a post! So! Let's do this!

melodies!
1 - Encounter - Metal Gear Solid
8 people got this one!

2 - Creative Exercise - Mario Paint
Quote from: InsigTurtle on June 09, 2017, 01:10:48 AMWelp. I wanted to listen to the "Creative Exercise" music from Mario Paint, so I searched it up on Youtube. I hate using the 30 minute extensions, so I clicked the second link, and my ears were greeted with "♪Who's been drawing, been drawing dicks? Who's drawing dicks? Who's drawing dicks?♫"

And then I resigned myself to my fate.
... This just happened to me. Again.
5 people drew, uh, picks

3- Title Screen - GoldenEye 007
3 people (only 3? sad.) got this one right. People didn't want to pursue it, I guess.

4- Driftveil City - Pokémon Black/White
3 people got this one too. Probably one of my favourites from B/W.

5- Main Theme - Final Fantasy VII
Quote from: mastersuperfan on June 28, 2017, 03:39:18 PM...

Yes.
2 people got this one!

6- Corridors of Time - Chrono Trigger
7 people got this one. Good thing, too.

7- Looming Darkness - Kirby's Return to Dream Land
Quote from: InsigTurtle on June 28, 2017, 03:35:25 PMmelodies that represent the looming darkness of the inevitable heat death of the universe (couldn't do because of Kirby)

Teehee. 2 people got this, I think. I just deleted the number by accident without looking at it and I'm too lazy to undo and I'm pretty sure it's only 2

8- Burned Tower - Pokemon Gold/Silver/Crystal
One of my favourites from G/S/C, probably because of the Japanese scales they use and the sudden tempo change. I like that game's music in general. 5 people got this!

9- Outset Island - The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker
This music really wakes my wind. 9 people got this right

10- Eight Melodies - Earthbound (others with the same melody were accepted!)
7 people got this one. I was really tempted to make this #8 and #9 buuuuut that wasn't funny.

11- Faron Woods - The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess
7 people also got this one.

12- Chainlink Charge - Super Mario 3D World
Y'know, I've actually never played this game past the first two levels. I got bored of it quick. 9 peeps got this one in the bag

13- Katamari on the Rocks - Katamari Damacy
Quote from: InsigTurtle on June 26, 2017, 10:44:51 AMReminds me of Tim Hortons.
Geddit? Because you roll up the rim to win here in Canada!
3 people rolled this one up.

14- Celestial Valley - Kirby Air Ride
4 people got this. I'm getting sleepy.

15- Green Hill Zone - Sonic the Hedgehog
Only 5 people were fast enough to catch this one. Everyone else was too slow.

16- DK Rap - Donkey Kong 64
7 people are part of the DK Crew. I mean, with the posts in the Siivagunner thread and the Listening thread, along with straight up mentioning it by name in my last post, I'm still happy how many people's coconut guns can fire in spurts.
Creds to people who got this without seeing my posts and realizing!

17- Cross-Examination ~ Allegro 2001 - Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney
Three people got this one. Not too easy, and it shows.

18- X-Naut Fortress - Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door
Fuck I just clicked on the Siivagunner link again instead of the actual music. 3 people got this one. I thought this would mess people up, since there isn't really a melody and it's the combination with the bass line that makes it distinctive.

19- Northern Desert - Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time/Darkness/Sky
3 people got this one. Everyone else doesn't like sand. It's coarse and rough and irritating, and it gets everywhere. One of my favourites from what's it called this game.

20- Flower Fields - Kirby's Epic Yarn (others were accepted too. i don't discriminate.)
7 people got this one. I don't like this one actually, it feels too carefree.

21- Hyrule Castle - The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past (any other variants were accepted too!)
10 people got this one. I like that intro.

22- Ryoshima Coast - Okami
bark bark. msf woof woof pant pant shake shake pat pat good boy

23- Forest Maze - Super Mario RPG
there are many secrets in this game, many of which drive some peeps insane
4 people got this one. teehee

12 people participated this time! Let's look at the top 3.

mastersuperfan - 18
Yug_Guy - 17
Dudeman - 15

What a surprise.

A lot of people made funny comments but I'm just way too "tired" to search them up and quote them so uh if you thought you said something funny you can go ahead and quote yourself or something idk

oh shit my formatting is wack and so is my life

Y'know, I wouldn't be surprised if your next quiz was a full-on ARG, where we have to go through your entire post history to find one specific reference while you bombard us with vague, cryptic clues as to what the songs could possibly be. Actually, that'd be kind of fun...

Quote from: InsigTurtle on June 28, 2017, 07:40:33 PMA lot of people made funny comments but I'm just way too "tired" to search them up and quote them so uh if you thought you said something funny you can go ahead and quote yourself or something idk

I know that's like the easiest melody on here anyway, but I'd appreciate it if you don't give away answers like that...

The only unguessed melodies are #7, #11, and #15.
Since it doesn't seem likely they will be guessed without more information, one is from Metroid, one from The Legend of Zelda, and the last one's a secret, as the franchise would be too big of a hint. Take that how you will.

Oh, and one of these 3 is the franchise that was used twice.

Olimar, may I ask whether #18 is from a game on a Nintendo system or not?

WAIT, NEVER MIND. I KNOW I'M LOOKING IN THE RIGHT PLACE. I FOUND ANOTHER TRACK IN THE OST THAT'S VERY SIMILAR.

Wait, it might be the one you're looking for. But if it is, a couple notes are wrong. Maybe not, though, because I could've sworn there was another version... I just can't find it.

Well, I'll submit it as is for now.

I can't believe it took me so long to find that. I thought it might've been from there but I never bothered to check until now...

EDIT: AHAHAHA I GOT OFF #10'S CEILING

Title: Re: LeviR.star's Somewhat Triweekly Guess-That-Melody Quiz!
Post by: mastersuperfan on July 04, 2017, 06:11:33 PM
Sometimes I do too but then I remember this:

Large
Quote from: Dekkadeci on April 03, 2017, 06:48:51 AMHere's my Guess-The-Song Quiz:
[PDF] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZUkh6bnpfY2xzaEE) | [MIDI] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZbDRuSmNhaG40TEE) | [MUS] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZR0xhSk5IMGtaSWs) | [MSCZ] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZTnpMY0NrUGJiM0k)

The MUS is readable in Finale, including Finale Notepad. The MSCZ is readable in Musescore. All other files are based on the original MSCZ, not the MUS--this explains why the PDF doesn't look like the MUS.

Between each melody is a whole rest. This helps MIDI-listeners play along.

You may PM me as many guesses as you want for each melody (I would prefer that you PM me one guess per melody at a time, though). Guesses should contain the title of the song (or best known use, such as "Mini-boss theme") as well as its game of origin. I will PM "Correct" or "Incorrect" for each guess. Your correct guesses override your incorrect ones. You can only get one correct answer per melody. Unsubmitted guesses for a melody are counted as incorrect at the deadline. (This means that you may submit partial lists of guesses that don't contain one guess for each melody.)

You can PM answers to me until Wednesday, Apr. 5 at 10:00 PM MDT (a.k.a. Thursday, Apr. 6 5:00 AM forum default time). I will not count any submissions made after that time, as I'll be too busy tallying results.

Results will be posted on Wednesday, Apr. 5 between 10:00-11:00 PM MDT (hopefully closer to the former). Results include each answer in order, YouTube videos for each answer, all users tied for the most correct answers, and how many answers each such user got correct.

I'm fine with Latios212 posting the next Guess-The-Song Quiz anytime on Wednesday, Apr. 5, regardless of whether I've posted the answers yet.

Five examples of acceptable guesses for a melody (these aren't comprehensive format-wise, but please PM me something along those lines)--note that all examples are incorrect, even though I'd accept each game name as legitimate (note that the fourth example's game name is technically misspelled):
  • Under My Control: "Kirby's Return to Dream Land"
  • "Thumbs Up!" Blue Dragon
  • Galaxy Fantasy - Mega Man 9
  • Ridley's Boss Theme, Metroid Other M
  • First overworld theme of Shovel Knight

Guidelines for answering, how the melodies are transcribed, and what counts as a correct answer:
  • If I were to write full transcriptions of the pieces each melody belongs to, the contents of each file have the notes, key signatures, and time signatures I would use.
  • ...Well, except for Melody 5. I'm not 100% certain I would use those key signatures at that point. But I would use those notes and that time signature!
  • All tempos are approximate.
  • Like with several Guess-The-Song Quizzes before it, there are no dynamic markings. I'm a bit too lazy to retrieve those accurately right now.
  • I will listen to the songs of each guess you make. If I find the exact melody in your song-guess at roughly the tempo in my quiz, I will mark it as correct.
  • I mark correct, unambiguous titles of songs as correct (of course!). "Unambiguous" is defined as me being able to determine the exact song with the title alone. If I find multiple songs with that title, and you provide a game where the exact melody does not play in that game's version of the song (or you provide no game at all), I will mark your guess as incorrect. Otherwise, if I find multiple songs with that title, and you provide a game where the exact melody does play in that game's version, I will mark your guess as correct. I may be generous and mark your guess as correct if you provide a correct, unambiguous title and an incorrect game (or no game at all), as long as I could find only one song with that title. But don't count on it.
  • If you provide a correct game of origin and a correct best known use in that game, I will mark your guess as correct. Examples of "best known use" are provided in the last two example guesses above--specifically, the "Ridley's Boss Theme" and "First overworld theme" excerpts.
  • If multiple songs match the game of origin and the best known use, I may ask you to be more specific. For example, I may PM you to be more specific if I receive a guess like "Final boss theme of Final Fantasy VII" (which, by the way, is incorrect), as that final boss has multiple themes. If I do not receive a more specific answer by the deadline, I will mark your guess as incorrect.
  • Alternately, if the song title, game of origin, and/or best known use are incorrect, even if one or more of them are ambiguous, I may mark your answer as incorrect instead. (This means that I may PM you back with "Incorrect" for your "Final boss theme of Final Fantasy VII" guess instead.)
  • All guesses containing only a video game name and no song title or best known use are marked as incorrect. Please don't try guesses like "Plants vs. Zombies 2" without specifying which song you mean.
  • Hint: Do not guess any of the "Super Smash Bros." games as the game of origin of any melody. I will ask you to provide the real game of origin of each guess containing a game in that series only. I may still mark the guess as correct at the deadline if you provide me the correct title of the song (not just its best known use such as "Ganon's boss theme", as multiple games may contain the relevant character or scenario). If all you provide me is the best known use (e.g. "the Mario Circuit theme") and a Super Smash Bros. game by the deadline, I will mark your guess as incorrect.
  • Why am I picking on Super Smash Bros.? Hint: at least one melody is found in a song in a Super Smash Bros. game, but none of them were written for Super Smash Bros.
  • If all this is overwhelming, just figure that I'll mark your guesses as intuitively as possible. However, I need unambiguous answers--all ambiguous answers that stay ambiguous by the deadline will be treated as incorrect.

I forgot I was meant to be hosting a quiz, so I started making this quiz about 6 hours ago.
Sorry if it's a bit crappy. Especially the articulations.

Anyway, here it is
LuxQuiz v3.0 (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0Byefg4uFkNBuNllMRDhSZi1Jd2M)


It's easy at the start, then insanely difficult at the end.
The last one doesn't really count, although in case someone actually does get it, they'll get a point.

The quiz is out of 14, with a maximum score of 15.

Enjoy~


p.s. Let me know if there are any problems with the files.

At first I'd picked a different part of this track (starting at 0:20), but I figured this one was obscure enough already.

For the record, I've never actually heard this one in-game; I haven't played City Folk and I never unlocked Shampoodle in New Leaf. I purposely went hunting for an obscure Animal Crossing theme to put in the final five.

THAT PART IS LITERALLY THE BEST PART OF THE TRACK. I WILL LITERALLY DELAY MY ESCAPE IN THE ORIGINAL METROID UNTIL I CAN EXIT WHILE GRACING MY EARS WITH THAT MAGNIFICENT BEAUTY. HOW... how... did nobody else get that one?

Also, yes, I'm bitter they removed it in Zero Mission.

I never played Mario Kart Wii much and barely watched others play it. Basically the only songs from that game I know are the title theme (because my siblings hit there often enough), the Rainbow Road theme (because I inevitably collide with it while trying to listen to other Rainbow Road themes), and the Toad's Factory theme (because I somewhat purposefully sought it out and also dat jazz).

Somehow, all of the melodies except the pokemon ones (there are two) and the bonus one have been guessed

I mean, I don't think the second pokemon one will ever be guessed. But hey, it's a cool game with a cool soundtrack, so I'm not bothered.

The most guessed themes are (in descending order):

The Pokemon Ranger series actually has a really nice soundtrack. Too bad it's usually overshadowed by pmd as a spinoff game.
The reason I chose such an obscure time stamp is purely because it's my favourite part of the tune.

I just have one thing to say about this quiz. There is one song that I will reward double points for if the guesser guesses it with 100% accuracy. If the guesser guesses the right song, but the wrong version, I will give the standard one point. It is this same song that I won't accept any "You got the rhythms wrong!" on. All rhythms for this song are intentional. With that, BEGIN!

Air Rally - Rhythm Heaven Fever:

Proof that even if you pick half the chorus of one of the most popular songs in the game you'll only have the people who know the game guessing it. 3 people got it. Everyone else should just listen to the song because it's great.

Also this is ridiculous. The top two people are confirmed 16, with the next two at 10. A small error like that isn't going to make much of a difference, especially since it didn't affect anyone's scores at all.

I'm more mad at the lack of, y'know, the other 7 (or 8) mainline games? Not having GB songs is fair enough tbh, but when there are so many other great songs from other mainline classic series titles which they just blatantly ignore that's when it starts to get annoying. Especially 9 and 10. Some of those would've been amazing.

Here's my fourth Guess-The-Song Quiz:
[PDF] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZZHJXbXFPUDQxanc) | [MIDI] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZcEtUV3FTVnlDV3M) | [MUS] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZZWFZX3VfTTFVNWc) | [MSCZ] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZWTJ0VHItbGpTWDQ)

The MUS is readable in Finale, including Finale Notepad. The MSCZ is readable in Musescore. All other files are based on the original MSCZ, not the MUS--this explains why the PDF doesn't look like the MUS.
The MUS may display and/or play back bugged. The MSCZ, MIDI, and PDF shouldn't.

Surprise--I've included exactly 5 final boss themes in this quiz, and they're all in a bonus section! All final boss themes are labelled #1f through #5f. I will reveal separate tallies for the main section, the final boss bonus section, and both sections combined when I post the results.

With that being said, the rest of the songs are from a wide array of series, and they're likely more difficult overall than my third quiz...although I did throw in some much easier ones, I believe. Don't worry if you know only one song--you might be the only one to get it right!

You can PM answers to me until Saturday, July 15 at 1:00 PM MDT (a.k.a. Saturday, July 15 8:00 PM forum default time). I will not count any submissions made after that time, as I'll be too busy tallying results.
Results will be posted shortly afterwards.

Some guidelines for answering, how the melodies are transcribed, and what counts as a correct answer:

I'm the only one who got Boss from Sonic the Hedgehog 2? Seriously?

Also, come on Waluigi! I expected you to get #14!

I think this is the one of the closest times I haven't won. One more point and I would be tying with Dudeman. Congrats, everyone!

I intended to, but time restrictions. I listened to it just before I posted the answers, though. Trust me, I will not make these amateur mistakes again. Besides, I trusted Bloop. I was wrong. Never trust a squid. It's an inkredible mistake.

It's been more than 24 hours, and only 3 people have submitted guesses so far. In case you've forgotten, here's my latest Guess-The-Song Quiz:

Quote from: Dekkadeci on July 12, 2017, 09:06:30 AMHere's my fourth Guess-The-Song Quiz:
[PDF] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZZHJXbXFPUDQxanc) | [MIDI] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZcEtUV3FTVnlDV3M) | [MUS] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZZWFZX3VfTTFVNWc) | [MSCZ] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZWTJ0VHItbGpTWDQ)

The MUS is readable in Finale, including Finale Notepad. The MSCZ is readable in Musescore. All other files are based on the original MSCZ, not the MUS--this explains why the PDF doesn't look like the MUS.
The MUS may display and/or play back bugged. The MSCZ, MIDI, and PDF shouldn't.

Surprise--I've included exactly 5 final boss themes in this quiz, and they're all in a bonus section! All final boss themes are labelled #1f through #5f. I will reveal separate tallies for the main section, the final boss bonus section, and both sections combined when I post the results.

With that being said, the rest of the songs are from a wide array of series, and they're likely more difficult overall than my third quiz...although I did throw in some much easier ones, I believe. Don't worry if you know only one song--you might be the only one to get it right!

You can PM answers to me until Saturday, July 15 at 1:00 PM MDT (a.k.a. Saturday, July 15 8:00 PM forum default time). I will not count any submissions made after that time, as I'll be too busy tallying results.
Results will be posted shortly afterwards.

Some guidelines for answering, how the melodies are transcribed, and what counts as a correct answer:
  • You may submit YouTube links/videos instead of game name-song name/best known use pairs.
  • All tempos are approximate.
  • Like last time, I will mark unambiguous songs with the right melody in the right key as correct. If your guess has the right melody in the wrong key, I will mark it as incorrect but PM back that you were close. You can freely guess again until the deadline.
  • I may not have gotten octave voicings correct in this quiz. If you think you've got the right song but it's off by an octave or two in parts, just guess that song anyway.
  • The high F note in the fourth bar of #1, #6, #15, the third bar of #3f, and #4f are less likely to be completely melodically and/or rhythmically accurate than the rest of the melodies.
  • You are still expected to submit game name-song name/best known use pairs or YouTube links/videos for the final boss bonus section. Hint 1: Giving game names alone for the bonus section results in ambiguous answers. Hint 2: At least one final boss in this section has at least two stages.
  • The last note of #6 is cut off.
  • The last bar of #1 is incompletely transcribed.
  • Due to the nature of their source songs, I am more likely to accept melodic variants of #7 and #17 as correct. Get the keys right, though.

Quote from: WaluigiTime64 on May 12, 2017, 01:32:39 PMIt is Saturday.

IN WHICH CASE, LET US BEGIN.

ALL RIGHT BOYS AND GIRLS, IT'S TIME FOR THIS GAME TO GET SERIOUS AGAIN.

MSF ROUND A (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/hgi99e9jwpgug1w/AADksffLwkdbl5tApKeku8G8a?dl=0)

The first thing you're going to ask about is that "A" in the title. For shits and giggles, I'm going to be keeping track of scores collectively over my next four quizzes, A through D, and tally it up out of 100 points. Because series variety will be different between these quizzes, and I'm curious.

Below is some important information you're going to want for this quiz. Seriously, read it. (It applies to all four quizzes, A through D.)

The Difficulty Format
For the next four quizzes, I'm going to be splitting up my quiz into three difficulty sections as follows:
  • Easy: Either iconic themes or just tracks from very popular games. Expect to get at least half of these. I wouldn't be surprised if there were one or more perfect scores in this section. Simple at the start, but it gets a bit trickier by the end.
  • Medium: Harder than the Easy section, obviously. Manageable at the beginning but the difficulty ramps up by the end of the section. Expect to get a couple of these.
  • Hard: Don't expect to get any of these. No, seriously, don't. ...Although, in reality, this is the easiest Hard section you're going to see over the course of my next four quizzes, so most of you should be able to get at least one or two this time. Hopefully. We'll see.
[close]

Franchise Representation
The four main franchises are all represented exactly four times--three times between the Easy and Medium sections and once in the Hard section:
  • Mario
  • Kirby
  • Pokémon
  • Zelda
Yep, these four series make up the majority of melodies on the quiz. It's a lot, but the ones near the beginning the Easy section should be recognizable to people who aren't fans of those series, while the ones in the Hard section might not even be recognized by series veterans. There are also quite a few people who boast the ability to recognize the vast majority of tunes from a single series, so if you happen to be a diehard Zelda fan *cough**cough* or a master Kirby fan *cough**cough*, you know exactly how many are on here, so this will be a test, if you will.

Other than those four, no series is repeated. The other nine melodies are all from distinct franchises. (In other words, this is not Wah's quiz. Sorry, Mega Man and Banjo-Ptooey fans.)
[close]

The Hint System
Here is where things might get a little convoluted. Each of you are all going to have three hints over my next four quizzes. You can message me with a request for a hint on a specific melody if you know you've heard but you don't know where from.

The catch? I post the hint publicly in the thread for everyone to see. Be assured, however, that the person who requested the hint will remain anonymous until the end of the round.

Hints will be larger for the Hard melodies and smaller for the Easy melodies since, well, the Hard melodies are obviously harder. I would advise you to list any information about the song that you think you already know so I can avoid giving you information that overlaps that isn't useful to you.

You can use multiple hints on a single quiz if you wish. You can also choose not to use all of your hints, or any at all. You cannot, however, use multiple hints on the same melody or request a hint for a melody that someone else requested a hint for.
[close]

And finally, what is always customary when I'm hosting a round:

Scoreboard (Current)
Black = 0 people
Red = 1-2 people
Green = 3-4 people
Blue = 5-6 people
Purple = 7+ people

1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9  10  11  12  13  14  15  16  17  18  19  20  21  22  23  24  25
[close]

Good luck! (You'll need it.)

Requested Hints
  • #7: From one of the four main series. Most people will only ever hear this once in-game, but it has over a million views on a single video outside of the game, so I figured people would know it. It transitions into 7/4 in a later section of the track.
  • #8: From one of the four main series. Plays in one of the levels/areas near the end of the game. It is not required to play/enter this level/area to beat the game, however.
  • #13: Not from one of the four main series. Also not playable on a Nintendo system. The title of the song refers to a certain character in the game.

...#7, anyone? Hello, #7? No? Okay.

I'll reveal that between the four main series, the only one where all four melodies have been guessed so far is Kirby.

Also, don't forget that you can request a hint if you want!

Here are the answers to my latest quiz:

~~~~~Main Section~~~~~

#1
"You Will Know Our Names"(/"Those Who Bear Their Name"), from Xenoblade Chronicles, used as the "unique monster" battle theme
Timestamp: 1:22

This is one of the most famous songs in this quiz...I think. I picked a slightly obscure section for it (the strong cadence), but I didn't expect anyone to be fooled.

Unfortunately, it seems that people were actually fooled:
Quote from: ThatHiddenCharacter on July 12, 2017, 02:18:14 PM#1 Sounds familiar, but not enough to base anything off of.
Quote from: ThatHiddenCharacter on July 12, 2017, 03:23:21 PM#1 I still have no idea, but it sounds sooo familiar.

I'm surprised Dudeman didn't even bother to guess this song.

#2
"Exotic Pyramid", from Kirby's Return to Dream Land, used as the Raisin Ruins 3 level theme
Timestamp: 0:30

I actually first learned this song from a Japanese Kirby medley, of all things. Then I found more remixes of it, and then I figured that it wasn't too obscure for this quiz.

Any resemblance this melody has to any other video game themes you're familiar with is probably unintentional...I blame this song being in A minor and having somewhat Egyptian melodies.

#5
"Circuit Theme", from Mario Kart: Double Dash!!, used as the theme of Luigi Circuit, Mario Circuit, and Yoshi Circuit
Timestamp: 0:00

I thought this would be one of the few VGM themes that people can recognize from just one bar. In this theme's case, it would be the first bar, which both introduces and ends a loop convincingly enough.

...Turns out I was right enough.

"The World Could Always Use More Heroes", from Overwatch, used in the opening cinematic and the main menu
Timestamp: 0:17

It's the most famous song in...Overwatch. Well, that just might cut into its popularity around these parts.

I also accepted "...And Overwatch For All" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bHTogulFTE8) as a correct answer, along with every other Overwatch song with this precise melody in it.

Heck, this melody appears so many times in Overwatch that I accepted this:
Quote from: Yug_Guy on July 14, 2017, 07:39:44 PM6. Main Theme - Overwatch

But, sadly, I did not accept this, as that song (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=keJPapmHDPg) does not contain this precise melody (it contains, like, 2 bars of it at most):

"Multiplayer Battle"/"Battling", from Bomberman (DS), used as multiplayer battle background music
Timestamp: 0:01

Here I was, wondering why I wasn't encountering Bomberman songs in these quizzes...so I stuck this melody in my latest quiz and wondered which Bomberman games you'd mention in guesses for this.

So I actually ended up accepting darn near any song in this video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q4jO91zYlL4). Yes, counting every single melodic variant in there.

...Turns out I didn't need an accepted list that large, though, as nobody even made a guess for this song. Did none of you ever play a Bomberman game in multiplayer mode with the sound on?

Maybe that's why I haven't been seeing Bomberman songs in these quizzes...

Apparently, this song is a known property to old-school 8-bit music fans. Never underestimate what people can do with 2 square waves, a triangle wave stuck at the same volume throughout, and a noise-making sound channel.

...Where are the old-school 8-bit music fans around here? I thought the Follin brothers composed famous music!

"Meta Knight's Revenge", from Super Smash Bros. Brawl, used as a stage theme
Timestamp: 1:33

This is one of the few songs I remember from playing Super Smash Bros. Brawl (before listening to its soundtrack), and it's one of the 2-3 songs that got me into Kirby music in the first place. My biggest pet peeve is that this remix skips an entire section of its 2nd source VGM theme, "Taking Over the Halberd" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wj300sIS_1s)...and this melody skips that section, too, which is why I marked that source theme as wrong.

...OK, I marked it half-wrong. I gave a "you were close, but find the remix with this precise melody" hint to everyone who guessed the source theme, and the hint got more revealing the closer to deadline it was (i.e. I started to reveal that the remix is not in a Kirby game). Due to deadline constraints among people who guessed the source theme, I gave 0.5 marks to everyone remaining who guessed it by the time of this post.

5 out of 7 people got this correct. 1 out of 7 people got this half-correct.

Timestamp: 0:30

I figured at least one of you would have at least a ghost of chance of getting this song--the one who mentioned he listened to marasy8 (http://forum.ninsheetmusic.org/index.php?topic=8232.msg379546#msg379546). (There is a marasy8 piano transcription of this song.) (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KDwBhMeipkQ) Unfortunately, he didn't even make a guess for this song.

Oh yeah, this song has  (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Av86YDMxlLU)multiple long versions (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FEQq9zuhHFc).

If you've listened to Yoko Shimomura albums, you may know this song as "Forgotten Wings" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TMj75XWoLZg) instead. Thus, I figured this is one of the most famous songs in Live A Live.

Gotta love drones that sit on top of busy accompaniments. This won't the last time that kind of music appears in a Kirby game.

For the record, Miracle Matter is a false final boss, and for the purposes of this quiz, false final bosses don't count as final bosses.

"Solaris Phase 2", from Sonic the Hedgehog (2006), used as the theme of the 2nd stage of the final boss
Timestamp: 0:02

Sonic games have a habit lately of using the main theme of the game as a final boss theme. ...Yeah, you might know this song better as "His World" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jjw1kU1VdMU).

"Megalovania", from Undertale, used as the Genocide route final boss theme
Timestamp: 1:52

It's the totally famous "Megalovania"! ...Except it's the least famous part. But that didn't dissuade the majority of you guessers from getting this right.

Just in case anyone guessed the final boss theme of Toby Fox's Earthbound hack (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iIowwZThIXM), it doesn't contain this melody, so I marked that as incorrect.

"Last Battle", from Cave Story, used as the final boss theme in the "best" ending

It's one of the most famous songs in Cave Story. Cave Story seems to be one of those few standalone games with somewhat well-known music. Hey, I like this final boss theme.

"Jergingha: Planet Destruction Form", from The Wonderful 101, used as the theme of the last stage of the final boss
Timestamp: 0:06

It's one of only two songs from The Wonderful 101 to be in a Super Smash Bros. game (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DCEQODNMS2U). Given how many published  (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oMCCivXgrug)Top 10 (Optionally  (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cH7f8r7I69A)Final) Boss Theme lists (https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLIlw_QgNomxbMXT960nPQLW_X4meTSZ31) it's in, I thought its making it into Super Smash Bros. was well-deserved.

...and that at least one of you would actually know this song.

Thank goodness at least one of you did!

2. How could I have missed this?! Come to think of it, this isn't a very memorable track.
4. This sounded familiar... gosh darn it.
10. Alright, enough of this, Dekka. If you're going to include a remixed melody, at least make sure it's in a different key/time/tempo.
16. THIS ONE WAS KILLING ME. I KNEW IT WAS FROM KIRBY 64. It sounded like Neo Star at first...

Congrats, Yug!

But he didn't even win lol

By the way, I'll quote this for visibility since I didn't make a new post about it:

Quote from: mastersuperfan on July 15, 2017, 11:47:48 AMFor everyone's sake, a hint has been requested for #7:
  • #7: From one of the four main series. Most people will only ever hear this once in-game, but it has over a million views on a single video outside of the game, so I figured people would know it. It transitions into 7/4 in a later section of the track.

Hopefully this should be enough, but if it isn't I might tack on a small bit more. Only time will tell...

All right, a new hint was requested. Specifically, for #8. The hints for both #7 and #8 are below:
Some of you have mentioned that another melody was familiar, so consider going back to that one and requesting a hint! There's no bonus for keeping all of your three hints over the next four quizzes, so take advantage of them.

One more person submitted guesses for a total of 10 participants, and another got back to me with a couple more correct answers. It seems like we'll be capped out at 10 at this time, so this might be the last scoreboard update:

Scoreboard (Update #3)
Black = 0 people
Red = 1-2 people

Kirby remains the only series of the main four that has been completely guessed out. The other three series each have exactly one unguessed melody left.

Finally, some last information I'd like to impart: the highest scores for each individual series.
(I meant to mention this earlier but I forgot: to clarify, I've decided that the Yoshi games and Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker, if I ever use that, will be counted as Mario, while Wario and Donkey Kong will be counted as their own series.)

This is one of the most famous songs in this quiz...I think. I picked a slightly obscure section for it (the strong cadence), but I didn't expect anyone to be fooled.

Unfortunately, it seems that people were actually fooled:

"Circuit Theme", from Mario Kart: Double Dash!!, used as the theme of Luigi Circuit, Mario Circuit, and Yoshi Circuit

I thought this would be one of the few VGM themes that people can recognize from just one bar. In this theme's case, it would be the first bar, which both introduces and ends a loop convincingly enough.

And while you're waiting for msf's answers, why not take a crack at my next quiz?

Melody Guessing Contest
"Four Glory" (7/17/2017) MUS (https://www.dropbox.com/s/ezgitd6zdyeo580/Levis%20Quiz%207.17.17.mus?dl=1) - MIDI (https://www.dropbox.com/s/3hjtt68q6cgvvxe/Levis%20Quiz%207.17.17.mid?dl=1) - PDF (https://www.dropbox.com/s/jrc0wfytypzhj8d/Levis%20Quiz%207.17.17.pdf?dl=0)

This time around, I've added a (hopefully fun) twist: this melody quiz contains no melodies from any of the four main Nintendo series, or their spin-offs/derivatives. That means this quiz contains no Mario, no Zelda, no Pokemon, and no Kirby. Any other franchise, be it Nintendo or otherwise, is fair game. Think you're up to it?

And because I don't feel like typing all this out again:
Quote from: Yug_Guy on June 24, 2017, 12:13:02 PMYou'll have until about 6:00 p.m. on Wednesday, July 19th to get your answers in via PM. If you know ahead of time that you won't be able to get your answers in until sometime after 6 on Wednesday, let me know via PM and I can try to delay the answers until later that evening. I for sure will not delay them into Thursday, since work will prevent me from posting the answers until nighttime.

Ah, yes. Good to see so many people get this one. Luckily for me, Dekka used the B Theme instead of the A theme for her last quiz, probably because it was harder to recognize. But this one is too iconic to be missed, and it clearly shows in the results, even if I didn't pick the first section.

I intentionally picked a part that wasn't in the original Dream Land version, but considering that this same version was remixed in Smash, there wasn't much of a chance that most of you weren't going to get it anyways.

No, this is not Meta Knight's Revenge. You know who you are.

Hey, would you look at that! The fourth song in a row that appears in Brawl! No surprise here.

And indeed, Dekka did use this same track in one of her quizzes a while back. It turns out that this part here is more well-known, though (probably because of Brawl).

"Another Medium" - Undertale

Timestamp: 0:36 - 0:51

I picked a weird part to try tripping people up yet again. It actually worked. A decently popular Undertale song, and still less than half of the participants got it. I was considering putting this one in the Easy section, but I ended up inserting it as the second melody of the Medium section because, y'know, it's... Another Medium. Heh. Hehe.

"Vs. Suicune" / "Vs. Legendary Beast" - Pokémon Crystal Version

Timestamp: 0:53 - 1:03

Also in: Pokémon HeartGold & SoulSilver Versions (https://youtu.be/ok3_XzQWr-s?t=53s), Pokémon Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nkt8c99OG9M)

Songs from Gen 2 have evidently been getting quite a lot of guesses, so I picked a battle theme exclusive to Crystal to see how well people truly knew the music. Three out of ten isn't bad, I suppose, but I was expecting those three to get it anyways. Looks like the rest of you just aren't as good as they are...

"The Man with the Machine Gun" - Final Fantasy VIII

Timestamp: 1:04 - 1:18

Hint: Not from one of the four main series. Also not playable on a Nintendo system. The title of the song refers to a certain character in the game. (requested by Dekkadeci)

Undoubtedly the most iconic theme from this game. Covers of this track are spread out all across YouTube. Three people got it, even though I doubt any of the participants here have played this game. I know I haven't.

Quote from: Dekkadeci on July 16, 2017, 02:52:15 AMI still keep hearing that melody being played by an electric guitar. Unfortunately, I'm running out of GaMetal ideas right now.
Quote from: Dekkadeci on July 16, 2017, 05:06:15 PMNow I remember thinking that the Black Mages version (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b1eXcuDyidk) missed the best part of this song--the starting background ostinato.

"Magma Flows" - Kirby Air Ride

Also in: Kirby Mass Attack (https://youtu.be/bmjBjdAaI_U?t=40s)

To be honest, I was pretty surprised at who did and didn't get this one. Perhaps the part was a little too short to be recognized by those who knew it, though, but I'd say it's pretty distinctive, at least.

All y'all know are the Air Ride tracks in Smash. I can't believe you guys. This soundtrack is too good to be ignored.

"Champion Alder" - Pokémon Black & White Versions

Timestamp: 0:19 - 0:29

*jumps off cliff*

Every time this dude showed up, I stopped and sat around listening to this awesome tune for a solid minute or two. I picked the second part of the track to make sure that those scumbag players who mashed the A button to get through the dialogue as quickly as possible wouldn't get this one. It's a shame only one person knew it... but at least it's more well-known than Embracing One's Duty.

"Rainbow Castle" - Mario Party

Timestamp: 0:14 - 0:22

Ah, the nostalgia... I remember buying a cheap used N64 just for the sake of playing this game (and Mario Party 3, but I liked this one more). And yes, I, too, got blisters on my hand in those rotating mini-games. This is arguably the most well-known track in the game, and I was really hoping someone would recognize this one.

Thankfully, after a while, someone did.

"Dark Crater" - Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time & Darkness

Timestamp: 0:45 - 0:55

Plays in one of the last dungeons in the game. It's one of the tracks with the fewest views on YouTube, and I figured the melody would be a bit hard to recognize due to the nature of the original instrument. It seems that I couldn't fool any PMD fans with this one. I'm not disappointed, though.

Oops. Looks like this one got more guesses than the second Medium Kirby song. But this one's at the beginning of the Hard section, so it's not like I was expecting it to go by unguessed. If you know the music of the game, you do know this track. I just didn't expect people to be very familiar with this game.

My favorite track in the OST, bar none. I love it so much. It easily takes one of the top spots on my list of my favorite VGM of all time.

I was getting pretty sad that nobody recognized it when, lo and behold, SiIvaGunner happens to post a rip of the very same track in the middle of the competition! As a hint, I so inconspicuously dropped it wordlessly in the Best of SiIvaGunner thread:

Quote from: mastersuperfan on July 15, 2017, 09:24:38 PM

Strange, though. Nobody got it. Proof that if you post something in that thread, other people won't listen.

"Gensokyo Millenium ~ History of the Moon" - Touhou 8: Imperishable Night

One of the few Touhou tracks that I've been very familiar with for a long time, actually. It's pretty good. Not my favorite (not even close, actually), but good enough to warrant its place in my quiz. I jacked up the difficulty on the part I chose to make it more fitting for the Hard section (even though it was a bit of a pain to transcribe).

...I'm surprised. It actually worked.

...Oh, actually? I'm the only one who played this game? Hmm. I thought it had pretty good sales, but I suppose that doesn't quite reflect on the participants in this contest (see: #23 as well). This one has a lot of YouTube views, too, so I was hoping that at least someone would know it.

The action in Hyrule Warriors gets pretty noisy though, what with all the slashing sound effects and Link's KYAH HYAH HYAH. I guess I can't really blame anyone for not getting it.

You might have noticed a pattern by now. Yep, I snuck a theme into the last five tracks. Specifically, a theme about the moon. Except nobody got any of these except for #21, so nobody ever found out.

Ahem. Yes. Now, about the track itself... Well, I placed it at #25 for a reason. If you've played this game, you would certainly remember this beautiful melody. I wanted to see if there was anyone else who discovered this underrated gem. But, of course, nobody has.

It's a shame. It is a pretty good game.

You guys do realize this is exactly why I did it this way, right? This way (ideally), everyone should be on an equal playing field. I know I'm often at a competitive disadvantage because I'm not as familiar with Kirby music as much as some of you guys are, and I'm sure some of you feel the same way about one (or more) of the other big 3. Hopefully, by getting rid of some of these biases, the quiz can be the most competitive & accessible to its participants. That's the hope, anyway.  (//http://#039;t%20go%20well%20-%20we'll%20see%20once%20the%20results%20are%20in)

To a certain extent, I agree with Noc here--this quiz might just be biased in favour of those who've listened to a wide variety of soundtracks. And seeing as you (Yug_Guy) have guessed Papers, Please, Overwatch, and Valkyrie no Densetsu themes correctly (among other series that basically nobody else guessed correctly)...I'm starting to expect a pretty wide range of represented soundtracks here.

As for #19, I only recall watching my sister play the Phoenix Wright (not Apollo Justice, and probably not Miles Edgeworth) games with the sound on.

...And now I've been reading the score spreadsheet for so long that I think I know mastersuperfan's real name now.

I knew that Touhou melody, and I even listened to that song while searching for it, but I didn't catch it still.
It doesn't help that all those piano solo parts in Touhou songs sound the same to me lol

In the meantime, I'm going to start my round early, since I'm going to end the round around 12 PM PST on Friday because I need to pack up and catch a plane and I'm probably not going to wake up before noon tomorrow anyway. Sooooo, here we go!

Quiz! -> (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/g91rg3ezw2ak88s/AAA1LFUDfIZmVHhUESXWg2Iwa?dl=0)

There are indeed some melodies from past quizzes here. It should be fairly short and relatively easy, so give it your best shot! Also, just from the title and the first two melodies, you should be able to guess the theme of this quiz.

One more thing I'm going to try out - A scoreboard on Google Sheets. When you submit your answers, I'll record your score here for everyone to see! Except, your username will be replaced by a randomly generated six-digit number because we can't spoil all the surprises here, can we?

THIS IS THE THIRD TIME I PUT THIS SONG IN ONE OF MY QUIZZES, AND STILL NONE OF YOU GOT IT

Okay, not really a video game song, but I couldn't resist having a song from my favorite band on this list.  :P

...I mean, it is a bonus song.

And now, the winner:
We have a tie!
It's Dudeman and mastersuperfan! with a total of... 5 points.

I'm not going to be here at all for the rest of today, so I figured I'd post my quiz now:

Static's Miscellaneous Melody Quiz V (Round 50)
[.MID] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B6i3fGvW_38VUmRPM2ZEZnM1alE) [.MUS] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B6i3fGvW_38VWmpnQXFKZ0JQd0U) [.MUSX] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B6i3fGvW_38VNlNHeXVVVjJQTEU) [.PDF] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B6i3fGvW_38VMVpITUpxTmFaWVE)

Because I felt lazy kind, I made this quiz shorter and considerably easier than my last ones. There's at least 4-5 songs here everyone should know (hopefully). For the first time, one of my quizzes has a theme to it. This theme applies only to the excerpts I used and may not always apply to the entire song that each melody is from. That's you're only hint, though. If you correctly guess the theme, then I may throw around some bonus points or something, we'll see what happens I guess. Also, only one game series is used more than once this time around. Good luck!

And yes, this is already the 50th melody quiz.

Want to see the results? Check the Scoreboard! (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1sVr_VxWbmmAfkFqbpsWemdiVWbAqfSlD8EJUQHf5tZk/edit?usp=sharing)

A couple of things. This round's theme, was alternating between music ranging from cheerful to downright trolly and super emotional music. If you know the scene #7 plays in, following it up with carefree happy Yoshis is just a little bit of a mood swing. And following the miracle that never happen with holy shit i just heard the most discordant truck horn in existence anyways uh following the miracle that never happen with a comical and whimsical "peaceful place" sets the stage for the following melodies. And there's that disgusting truck horn again.

So yeah. MSF is this round's Jeb!

Doing the scoreboard this way is actually pretty fun, and I fuck that truck horn found it to be a lot easier than giving score updates on the forums. Plus, Jeb!

Unfortunately, Lux, who is scheduled to go today, isn't able to host his round as usual. Wah, who's scheduled to go next, doesn't seem to be around at the moment (and last time we talked he mentioned that he was only halfway done, so I don't know if he's finished).

I've been communicating with some people and I've settled on this course of action: to avoid messing up the immediate schedule too much, I'm going to post my next round now instead of during my usual spot. I'll most likely let my round go until Thursday (since it's almost Tuesday where I am), and Wah's round can last from Thursday to Saturday. THC and Dekka will still host their rounds according to the dates on the schedule, and then Yug will go right after Dekka instead of me.

Anyways, without further ado:

MSF ROUND B (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/qd999uehjmjyn5e/AAAa0gliEtU7OWSRM5uwscrna?dl=0)

Quote from: mastersuperfan on July 14, 2017, 09:17:33 PM
The Difficulty Format
For the next four quizzes, I'm going to be splitting up my quiz into three difficulty sections as follows:
  • Easy: Either iconic themes or just tracks from very popular games. Expect to get at least half of these. I wouldn't be surprised if there were one or more perfect scores in this section. Simple at the start, but it gets a bit trickier by the end.
  • Medium: Harder than the Easy section, obviously. Each game has likely been played by at least a couple members here. Expect to get a couple of these.
  • Hard: Don't expect to get any of these. No, seriously, don't.
[close]

Franchise Representation
The four main franchises are all represented exactly four times--three times between the Easy and Medium sections and once in the Hard section:
  • Mario
  • Kirby
  • Pokémon
  • Zelda
Luigi, Yoshi, and Captain Toad games all count as Mario. Wario and Donkey Kong games do not.

Other than these four franchises, no series is repeated within a single quiz.
[close]

The Hint System
Here is where things might get a little convoluted. Each of you are all going to have three hints over my next four quizzes. You can message me with a request for a hint on a specific melody if you know you've heard but you don't know where from.

The catch? I post the hint publicly in the thread for everyone to see. Be assured, however, that the person who requested the hint will remain anonymous until the end of the round.

Hints will be larger for the Hard melodies and smaller for the Easy melodies since, well, the Hard melodies are obviously harder. I would advise you to list any information about the song that you think you already know so I can avoid giving you information that overlaps that isn't useful to you.

You can use multiple hints on a single quiz if you wish. You can also choose not to use all of your hints, or any at all. You cannot, however, use multiple hints on the same melody or request a hint for a melody that someone else requested a hint for.

At the moment, everyone has all 3 hints except for THC, Dekka, and Levi, who each have 2 hints left.

Scoreboard (Final)
Black = 0 people
Red = 1-2 people
Green = 3-4 people
Blue = 5-6 people
Purple = 7+ people

[close]

Requested Hints (4) - 3, 6, 9, 24
  • #3: From one of the four main series. DS game.
  • #6: From one of the four main series. Plays in one of the first few levels/areas in the game. The melody I transcribed comes right after the super famous part.
  • #9: From one of the four main series. Plays during the final boss battle. (Apparently not nearly as recognizable as I thought.)
  • #24: Not from one of the four main series. Not playable on a Nintendo system, either. Battle theme. Played by a violin section.

Quiz Theme
The theme for this quiz is the use of modal excerpts. Melodies I-V are primarily in Dorian, VI-X are primarily Phrygian, and XI-XV are primarily Mixolydian. There are a few spots in some excerpts where it doesn't exactly align with a mode, but most of the time they do. I didn't know how many people would figure this out (or if any would), but I thought it would be fun to see what happens.

Agh, man, this is one of my favorite high-quality rips. I guess the melody is hard to hear underneath Rob Cantor's masterpiece, though.

At first I was really surprised that I missed this, but the melody is pretty hard to really discern underneath all those dissonant layers.

Congrats on the last-minute win, MSF.


EDIT: I've got 13 on MSF's right now and I could maybe eventually get 14

Quote from: mastersuperfan on July 24, 2017, 07:54:48 PMUnfortunately, Lux, who is scheduled to go today, isn't able to host his round as usual. Wah, who's scheduled to go next, doesn't seem to be around at the moment (and last time we talked he mentioned that he was only halfway done, so I don't know if he's finished).

I've been communicating with some people and I've settled on this course of action: to avoid messing up the immediate schedule too much, I'm going to post my next round now instead of during my usual spot. I'll most likely let my round go until Thursday (since it's almost Tuesday where I am), and Wah's round can last from Thursday to Saturday. THC and Dekka will still host their rounds according to the dates on the schedule, and then Yug will go right after Dekka instead of me.
Since Levi's away, and my summer is packed as usual, I'm extending scheduling privileges to MSF. Please contact him instead of me regarding any questions about who hosts when.

A couple general hints:

First of all, I was planning to mention this from the very start, but it slipped my mind. It turns out that on this quiz, there happen to be no melodies from a game that was represented in my previous quiz (Round A). That means that none of the following games are on this quiz:

Games NOT on This Quiz
Mario:
  • Super Mario Galaxy
  • Super Mario Galaxy 2
  • Mario Party
  • Mario Kart 8 Deluxe (Mario Kart 8 may still be represented)

Kirby:
  • Kirby Super Star (KSS Ultra may still be represented)
  • Kirby: Triple Deluxe
  • Kirby Air Ride
  • Kirby Canvas Curse

Pokémon:
  • Pokémon Sun & Moon
  • Pokémon Crystal Version (Gold & Silver may still be represented)
  • Pokémon Black & White Versions (B2W2 may still be represented)
  • Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time & Darkness (Explorers of Sky may still be represented)

Zelda:
  • Zelda II: The Adventure of Link
  • The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks
  • The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening
  • Hyrule Warriors

Miscellaneous:
  • Tetris
  • Super Metroid
  • Undertale
  • Final Fantasy VIII
  • Apollo Justice: Ace Attorney
  • VVVVVV
  • Touhou Eiyashou ~ Imperishable Night
  • To the Moon
  • Rhythm Thief and the Emperor's Treasure
[close]

Additionally, as of now, only one of the four main series has been guessed out (but not all by the same person). Two of the other series have one melody remaining, while the fourth has two melodies unguessed.

Finally, a hint has been requested for #24, which you can find below. (Since it's near the end of the Hard section, it's a pretty sizable hint. I am hoping it gets guessed, after all...)

Requested Hints (1) - 24
  • #24: Not from one of the four main series. Not playable on a Nintendo system, either. Battle theme. Played by a violin section.
[close]

You know, #9 being unguessed makes me cry. Just a little...
Title: Re: LeviR.star's Somewhat Triweekly Guess-That-Melody Quiz!
Post by: mastersuperfan on July 26, 2017, 03:43:19 PM
Nine people have their guesses in now. It's not hard to guess who's currently in the lead, but at the moment there's a three-way tie for second place and a four-way tie for last place (I imagine this won't last for long, though). The other person is floating somewhere in between second and last place.

Scoreboard has been updated as usual, and, perhaps more importantly, two more hints have been requested: namely, for #6 and #9. This will probably be the last update unless another hint is requested.

Scoreboard (Update #3)
Black = 0 people
Red = 1-2 people
Green = 3-4 people
Blue = 5-6 people
Purple = 7+ people

1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  9  10  11  12  13  14  15  16  17  18  19  20  21  22  23  24  25
[close]

Requested Hints (3) - 6, 9, 24
  • #6: From one of the four main series. Plays in one of the first few levels/areas in the game. The melody I transcribed comes right after the super famous part.
  • #9: From one of the four main series. Plays during the final boss battle. (Apparently not nearly as recognizable as I thought.)
  • #24: Not from one of the four main series. Not playable on a Nintendo system, either. Battle theme. Played by a violin section.
[close]

Oh, by the way, the subtitle of the quiz is supposed to be a hint. Not a big one, but it's there...

One final thing: the tenth competitor who hasn't entered yet is Levi, who happens to be away right now. He posted that he would be away for a week and should be back soon, so I'm going to leave this round open until he can compete, even if it means that I'll have to post the results on Friday or Saturday (although the upcoming rounds will still be posted on their normal dates).

In the case that anyone is desperate enough to know the answers before then, contact me and I can finalize your score and reveal them to you. Keep in mind that anything you say in response to the answers can and probably will be quoted in the results post.

Post by: mastersuperfan on July 27, 2017, 05:58:21 AM
Sorry, triple post, buuuut I've got a few last things to share. First of all, another hint was requested, this time for #3.

Requested Hints (4) - 3, 6, 9, 24
  • #3: From one of the four main series. DS game.
  • #6: From one of the four main series. Plays in one of the first few levels/areas in the game. The melody I transcribed comes right after the super famous part.
  • #9: From one of the four main series. Plays during the final boss battle. (Apparently not nearly as recognizable as I thought.)
  • #24: Not from one of the four main series. Not playable on a Nintendo system, either. Battle theme. Played by a violin section.
[close]

Finally, I'll once again share with you the highest scores for each series:
By the way, someone got #9 off the hint. Glad it's finally been guessed...

(And, just in case anyone missed my post earlier about it, I'm going to leave this round open until Levi gets back. Wah will post his round in the meantime.)

there's almost no doubt that one or a few of these have been used before, and i don't really care lol. nobody's making a list of used songs so it becomes hard to remember. there's sort-of a theme to it but hopefully at least one of you will notice it

Alright to it's time to reveal scores once again. 9 people participated this round.
Also only one person directly stated that they knew the theme/gimmick thing for this round that was correct. For everyone else, it should be obvious in the answers.

#1 (Super Mario Bros.)
Cursed Kings - Super Mario Bros. 3:

Also accepted answers:
 - "Rescued King"
 - "King's Room"
 - "Kang's Room"
 - "??? It's from SMB3, and it plays when you go into the place thing and the toad says "HEY IT'S TERRIBLE THE KING HAS BEEN TRANSFORMED INTO A FUCKING LIZARD" or when you defeat the koopaling and fall down and then the"
 - "when you talk to the king dude guy"

Tried to pick an well-known but still somewhat tricky early Mario piece for the first one. Cool thing 7 people got it.
[close]

#2 (Touhou Project)
Love-Coloured Master Spark - Touhou 8: Imperishable Night:

Also accepted answers:
 - "Love-colored Master Super Fan Spark"
 - "that's the music that plays during marisa's fight in TH8, i prefer fighting reimu though her spell cars are more interesting"

A popular Touhou song. Picked this because we're honestly running out. Good thing 4 people got this, while that's still possible.
[close]

#3 (Mega Man)
Snake Man Stage - Mega Man 3:

Also accepted answers:
 - "extrem sneks"
 - "sounds like something dudeman would know. no step on snek"

Popular Mega Man piece. Also I got a sheet of it on-site not too long ago lol. Best part is that I robbed it from MSF after he robbed me. Anyway, 5 people got it.
[close]

#4 (DuckTales)
The Amazon - DuckTales:

Also accepted answers:
 - ""The eBay" - DankTales"

Yet another popular song. I realised no one had put this one in a quiz yet and I found that weird. Sadly only 1 person got it anyway so whatever lol.
[close]

#5 (Mario Kart)
Waluigi Pinball/Wario Stadium - Mario Kart DS:

Also accepted answers:
 - "WAAAAAAH"
 - "WAHluigi Pinball"

Wah. 7 people got this.
[close]

#6: (Kirby)
Peanut Plain - Kirby Super Star:

Also accepted answers:
 - "Peanut Butter"

The first section of this song is super popular and would've been way too easy, so I picked the other bit. Worked on most people except 3.
[close]

#7: (Yoshi)
Story Music Box - Yoshi's Island:

Also accepted answers:
 - "that's the story music box thing from yoshi's island. also known as Госуда́рственный гимн Росси́йской Федера́ции"

A really easy one. Just wanted to pick an easy Yoshi song lol. Unsurprisingly 7 people got it.
[close]

#8: (Pikmin)
Forest of Hope - Pikmin:

Also accepted answers:
 - "The Forest of Despair"

Tried for an easy Pikmin one. Worked for the most part, if 5 people have anything to say for it. Also yes, I did use a part between two phrases because I do what I want.
[close]

#9 (Sonic the Hedgehog)
Marble Zone - Sonic the Hedgehog:

I was going to use this in another quiz but I replaced it with Starlight Zone, because it was slightly more popular. Clearly so, as only 2 people got this one.
[close]

#10: (Super Smash Bros.)
Final Destination - Super Smash Bros. Brawl:

Also accepted answers:
 - "AHHH PLEASE MAMAAAAAAAAA GIMME THE BOOOOOOOOOZE SO WHAT'S IT 'SPOSED TO MEEEAAAAAN IF I PEE A TSUNAMIIIIIIII"

It worked. I picked the first bit that people would find difficult to notice and I managed to trick everyone. Except 2 people apparently.
[close]

#11: (Pokemon)
Heavy Rainfall - Pokemon Sapphire Version:

Also accepted answers:
 - "Heavy Rain"
 - "7.8 out of 10 too much water"

Here's for the Pokemon nerds. Except it isn't hard at all. 4 people got this one.
[close]

#12: (Donkey Kong Country)
Theme - Donkey Kong Country:

Also accepted answers:
 - "Title Theme"
 - "Theme (of)"

I picked any other part of the song there likely would've been a drastic change in the amount of correct guesses. At least 3 people got it.
[close]

#13: (Super Mario Bros.) (FLIP)
Rightside Down Galaxy - Super Mario Galaxy 2:

Also accepted answers:
 - "Upside Dizzy Galaxy"

This was a tough choice. I was actually considering Flipside from Super Paper Mario but I decided on something I figured was trickier. Didn't stop 3 people.
[close]

#14: (Donkey Kong Country)
K. Rool Returns - Donkey Kong Country 2:

This is where things start to get tricky (sort of maybe idk). I mean, only 1 person got this, so that should say something.
[close]

#15: (Pokemon)
Drought - Pokemon Ruby Version:

Also accepted answers:
 - "7.8 out of 10 not enough water"

This is where the theme/gimmick should've been noticeable if you could get them. You could also shrug it off as me being weird lol. 5 people got this one.
[close]

#16 (Super Smash Bros.)
Ending ~ Staff Roll - Super Smash Bros.:

Also accepted answers:
 - "Credits"

Reluctantly accepted answers:
 - "Final Destination (Melee)"
 - "No Items, Fox Only"

Welp. I go for one song and hope that people don't pick the other one but half of them go with the other thing anyway. Not that this was hard though. 6 people got this.
[close]

#17 (Sonic the Hedgehog)
Tropical Resort - Act 1 - Sonic Colours:

I dunno. I just like this song lol. I figured it would be somewhat-known, but only 1 person knew.
[close]

#18: (Pikmin)
Valley of Repose - Pikmin 2:

A nice song. Sadly only 1 person got it.
[close]

#19 (Yoshi)
Hotfoot Hurdle - Yoshi's New Island:

Was hoping someone else knew this wonderful song. Shame. Please listen to it. It sounds like Spongebob music and I think that's great.
[close]

#20 (Kirby)
Title Screen - Kirby's Adventure:

Also accepted answers:
 - "Title"

It sounds like Kirby but it's a song that often gets looked over. 1 person remembered straight away, 1 person remembered later, and 1 person went through most of the soundtrack looking for it.
[close]

#21 (Mario Kart)
(https://www.ninsheetmusic.org/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FEP7JvsS.jpg&hash=6054e588a1266267a4963522e14fb0b141fcf6d0) (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4xIVzyzjsps)

MSF got this and lol'd. It's an in-joke mostly, but I also wanted a difficult Mario Kart one.
[close]

#22 (DuckTales)
Money Bin - DuckTales: Remastered:

;_;
[close]

#23 (Mega Man)
We're the Robots (Dr. Wily Stage 2) - Mega Man 9:

A reasonably popular song actually, at least within the fandom. It's obvious which 1 person got this.
[close]

#24 (Touhou Project)
Love-Coloured Magic - Touhou 2: Story of Eastern Wonderland:

Also accepted answers:
 - "Love-Colored Music"
 - "now whoa there sonny i prefer touhou music from REAL touhou games unlike that PC-98 trash. to all those mima fanboys out there COME AT ME BRO fuck you now which game is this from again? i'm guessing TH2"

Honestly I was expecting this to be the easy one from the flipped end, especially considering it sounds the same as #2, just to confuse people who didn't know, as well as give away the theme/gimmick. Sadly there was no one to point and laugh at for only getting #2. 4 people got this.
[close]

#25 (Super Mario Bros.)
Wooded Kingdom - Super Mario Odyssey:

Yep. This is the hard Mario melody. I just really like this song lol.
[close]

Never mind. Answers now.

Answers and Results!

The results of this quiz were certainly... interesting, to say the least. It seems that this quiz ended up being a lot harder than I intended. Four people got a higher score than last time, five people got a lower score than last time, and one person got the same score. However, the average score ended up being about a solid point below last round's score.

Regardless, the quiz could've turned out worse, at least. Of the 25 melodies, 21 of them got guessed, which is a pretty solid improvement over last time. And without further ado... the answers and results!

  • #6: From one of the four main series. Plays in one of the first few levels/areas in the game. The melody I transcribed comes right after the super famous part.
  • #9: From one of the four main series. Plays during the final boss battle. (Apparently not nearly as recognizable as I thought.)

Easy section. Easy melodies (relatively speaking, at least). Not much to say here, though it seems like this section was a tad harder than last time's.

Good to see so many people get this one. It was nice knowing there was at least one melody in here that plenty of people could get. (Mael, you forgot to pick up your free point. Again.)

By the way, when I was listening to this on YouTube, I looked in the sidebar and found... something interesting. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s_PDAku2XZw)

Well, that was a... startlingly low number of people who recognized this one. Isn't this really iconic? The most well-known Mega Man track ever? The one that even those who haven't played Mega Man have heard countless times? The one so obvious that Dudeman even complained about it being too easy?

No?

Levi aside, since he wasn't here for Wah's round, more people got Snek Man than this. That's kind of sad.

These guys are idiots. And they have some really stupid-looking haircuts. But at least they have a cool battle theme.

Naturally, I put this one near the front since it has a remix in Brawl that plays during the Subspace Emissary. It seems that most people weren't even aware of that, though...

For some strange reason this is one of the only warp songs, as well as Bolero of Fire, that I still remember off the top of my head after not having touched Ocarina of Time for years. But I sure as hell didn't like the Water Temple itself as much...

There was actually a surprisingly big discrepancy between the competitors who recognized The Great Sea and those who recognized this one. To my surprise, only Dudeman and Yug_Guy got them both. I think there were a couple people who should've known #4 that missed it...

Quote from: Yug_GuyGod, why does #6 sound so familiar?
Even with the hint I'm still trying to place it
I'm just trying to use process of elimination here
I already have 3/4 Pokémon songs, and it doesn't really sound like it's from Pokemon
so it can't be that
Doesn't sound like it's from Zelda
And why would you put 3 Zelda songs in the easy section?
And it doesn't really sound like it's from Mario
Unless there's something from Sunshine/Galaxy that I don't know
So I think it's from Kirby?
But then where is it from?
And how the hell do I recognize it?

Still, color me surprised that only a few people got it. Dudeman, Static, and Wah are the true Mario music masters here, everyone.

(It's kind of sad that I have to say that regarding the easiest Mario melody in this quiz. While the trickiness was intentional to balance out the easiness of the Mario melodies in the last quiz, perhaps this one was a tad too difficult...)

For some reason this was one of the themes I listened to the most when I was a kid. I think I got the impression that this theme was somehow super famous, but looking back I don't really think that's the case. Either way, it appears that it's still quite recognizable to any good Pokémon fan.

Turns out that In the Final from Inside Story is so hugely famous that it completely overshadows any fame that this theme might have gotten. Which is really a shame, because I like this one a lot more.

But seriously, how did In the Final get seven correct guesses while this one didn't even get a single one until the hint?

B2W2 is really just so unpopular, it seems. I swear I could use the goddamn Champion battle theme and nobody would get it. I'll admit I probably shouldn't have expected this one to get guessed...

Rhythm Heaven melodies would typically go into the Hard section, I imagine, but this one got shifted to the Medium section due to its appearance in Smash 4. Which didn't actually help anyone get it.

Dagnabbit, no wonder I thought #14 and #24 of mastersuperfan's quiz sounded so familiar--I had listened to both of them before! (And #24 does contain a B flat minor version of that melody, too...dang me searching Final Fantasy soundtracks for #24...and I was starting to suspect #14 was from Mario or Kirby...)

Here's my fifth Guess-The-Song Quiz:
[PDF] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZQU1TT0RrQjA1a0k) | [MIDI] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZS2JicE1STDc2ZWc) | [MUS] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZNjlveTVFNExmR2M) | [MSCZ] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZdG4yRFVPQjBVaDQ)

The MUS is readable in Finale, including Finale Notepad. The MSCZ is readable in Musescore. All other files are based on the original MSCZ, not the MUS--this explains why the PDF doesn't look like the MUS.
The MUS may display and/or play back bugged. The MSCZ, MIDI, and PDF shouldn't.

The bonus section is back (quite possibly for the last time for me)! This round, each melody in the bonus section is from a song that was either written for a video game series but not for any of its games (and they never appear in a game), or they weren't written for any video game series but they appear in one and are prominently associated with that one. All such melodies are labelled #1b through #4b. I will reveal separate tallies for the main section, the bonus section, and both sections combined when I post the results.

This quiz is likely easier than each of my previous two quizzes, though don't feel too bad if you only get one or two! PM away!

You can PM answers to me until Wednesday, August 2 at 5:00 PM MDT (a.k.a. Thursday, August 3 12:00 AM forum default time). I will not count any submissions made after that time, as I'll be too busy tallying results.
Results will be posted shortly afterwards.

Some guidelines for answering, how the melodies are transcribed, and what counts as a correct answer--oh yeah, and some hints right off the bat:

I'm guessing you were A.) Pressed for time and couldn't find this, or B.) Being bombarded by its NES counterparts because you didn't specify down to "GB". I know, it's tough. But really, this may be a great tune, but the only reasons Dudeman and I got it are because we're Mega Man fans, and that I arranged it just a few months ago. Even if I submitted it, too, Mael, Latios, and Wah are busy right now.

2. Huh.
3. Whoa whoa whoa, I only got the regular Boss theme last time because I had part of the game's boss rush when I was bored.
14. Why the heck was I the only to get this one? Everyone should know this theme, even those who only saw the movie! Also, no harmonies if you can avoid them, please. That makes the game too easy.
15. This would have sounded strange without both voices, so I'll allow it.

And yeaaaaah this I thought this went with saying since the beginning but apparently not. It's called Guess-That-Melody quiz for a reason, you know. You should only be transcribing multiple voices in rare cases, such as if it's not unclear which note/voice is the melody at any given point.

Like my 4th quiz, this one is exceptionally challenging. To account for this, I've prepared a series of optional hints for you all to use if you want.

Hints
  • Two franchises are used more than once
  • The major Nintendo franchises represented in this quiz are Mario, Zelda, Kirby, Pokemon, Fire Emblem, Metroid, F-Zero, Mother, & [Edit: Animal Crossing].
  • 6 melodies are from games that were originally only released in Japan and may not have been officially localized.
  • 14 melodies are from games that can be played on Nintendo systems.
  • The earliest game featured in this melody quiz was released in 1986; the latest was released in 2017.

Good luck!

EDIT: Another small hint as been added that I forgot to mention earlier.

Here are the answers to my latest quiz:

~~~~~Main Section~~~~~

#1
"Still Alive", from Portal, used as the credits theme
Timestamp: 0:25

I suspected this would be one of the easiest songs in this entire quiz, despite being from a game not otherwise known for its music. I guess 3 people getting this correctly is easy enough.

3 out of 6 people got this correct.

#2
"Dark Meta Knight"/"Dark Meta Knight Battle", from Kirby & the Amazing Mirror, used as Dark Meta Knight's boss theme
Timestamp: 0:00

I also accepted Dark Meta Knight's theme from Kirby: Triple Deluxe (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7bp_aH8Ztm8).

I ended up accepting this as a title (emphasis mine). I don't know whether it's just autocorrect's fault or this song or the character it's for really is that much of a meme...
Quote from: mastersuperfan on July 31, 2017, 09:55:07 AM2) "Dank Meta Knight" - Kirby and the Amazing Mirror

I never did find Kirby & the Amazing Mirror's music to be quite as catchy or accessible as much of the other Kirby games' soundtracks, and that's probably because it doesn't really share composers with the other games. Oh well, apparently its storyline and characters are ripe for expansion...

#3
"The Betrayer (Enchantress Final Form)", from Shovel Knight, used as the theme for the second stage of the final boss
Timestamp: 0:13

I purposefully picked this melody because it contains a warped but still recognizable version of the "The Requiem of Shield Knight" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c1tSmLj4_tc) motif, so if you knew enough Shovel Knight music, you should have gotten this song. Screw completely transcribing this excerpt's 4th bar, though...

#4
"Four Brave Champions", from Castle Crashers, used as the title theme and the credits theme
Timestamp: 0:00

Yes, this is one of the few songs in Castle Crashers that was actually written for that game! Well, winning  (https://musicbrainz.org/release/93933419-7236-4a51-b7a6-71cebae72d7c)a contest (https://vgmdaily.wordpress.com/tag/castle-crashers/) to write music for Castle Crashers counts, right?

"Attack of the Koopa Bros.", from Paper Mario, used as the Koopa Bros.'s boss theme
Timestamp: 0:04

Unlike some other Paper Mario songs, including boss themes, I never remembered this from my playthroughs of that game. I eventually found out why--this is yet another rendition of the 12-bar blues. No wonder I didn't remember it back then.

It's fairly popular, though, so I included this melody to figure out how many of you remember your banal 12-bar blues video game themes. I tried to put in one of the most distinctive motives of the song in this melody.

"Battle! Trainer"/"Battle! (Trainer)", from Pokemon Diamond, Pokemon Pearl, and Pokemon Platinum, used as an alternate regular battle theme
Timestamp: 1:11

This was one of the few melodies I feared wouldn't be distinctive enough at a whopping 8 bars, so I expanded it even further to 12.

Gotta love that melody and chord progression...however overused it is.

"Power of -NEO-"/"Power of NEO", from Undertale, used as Mettaton NEO's boss theme
Timestamp: 0:10

I marked "Battle Against a True Hero" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aWBtpBwzzdM) as wrong because its version of the motif it shares with "Power of NEO" never switches keys, while this melody does.

Is it a problem when I like "Power of NEO" more than "Battle Against a True Hero"? (I also like "Spear of Justice" more than "Battle Against a True Hero", for what that's worth...I probably like stressful battle themes more...)

"Revenge of the Enemy", from Kirby: Triple Deluxe, used as a boss theme
Timestamp: 0:32

I decided to be nice and mark the Kirby and the Rainbow Curse version (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kgrBxAVLmKY) as correct, even though it slightly modifies this melody.

I purposefully picked this melody because it contains the minor-key "Green Greens" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OCH6nQYflwY) motif. All over. In fact, the only way you could tell the melody was from this song was by figuring out how that motif was warped.

"Battle 1 (Player)"/"Fight 1"/"Attack!", from Fire Emblem Gaiden, used as a regular enough battle theme
Timestamp: 0:00

A remix of this song named "Finale ~ Ally Attack" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9pKXzeWQRAo) also appears in Fire Emblem Gaiden, but it's always in the wrong key, so it's incorrect.

I ended up accepting a fair few of this song's remixes in Fire Emblem Echoes: Shadows of Valentia as correct--I decided to be nice and accept "The Dauntless Blade" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tBb1EsfnII4) and "A Blade on the Wind" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uVh6Q643IQ0) as correct, even though they slightly modify this melody. Oh yeah, both of them also seem to be known as "Fearless White Blade".

Analyze the harmony and rhythm of the first two bars and it kind of sounds like an A minor version of Ridley's theme (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9toMoL8fW-4)...

I made this melody long enough that I could mark Star Fox's "Space Armada" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DCm40OfAO9g) as wrong because it doesn't contain all of this melody. That game's "Venom Base Stage 01" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TWlwK3asu48) theme was also wrong for similar reasons.

...Yeah, this song remixes both of the above.

"Dream Chaser"/"Silence"/"Dream Chaser (Silence)"/"Silence (Dream Chaser)", from F-Zero Climax, used as a racetrack theme
Timestamp: 0:29

Sadly, "Dream Chaser" from F-Zero X (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EUSxabS5_qM) was marked wrong because it doesn't contain this melody at all.

I picked this melody because its fifth bar sounds an awful lot like the "Kirby Dance" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WV9OWajjTA8). Based on the hints I gave (that there were exactly 2 Kirby melodies on this quiz) and the fact that #8 is clearly remixing Kirby music, this might have fooled people into thinking this was the other Kirby melody.

...It's not. #2 is somehow.

I didn't originally intend this when I started making this quiz, but perhaps warped remixes of well-known VGM themes is a sub-theme of this quiz...

I thought I'd end this quiz with another famous song--this time one of the last famous Touhou songs not yet taken, "Necrofantasia"! ...OK, so maybe a lot of its fame is based on its black MIDI versions (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qo1IBXUYOgA).

I did extract the melody from one of this song's blandest sections, mainly because it was the easiest excerpt to transcribe, but I thought that wouldn't fool quite a few of you...

...well, maybe it actually fooled everyone.

"Song That Might Play When You Fight Sans", from the Undertale series, used in the OST but not in the game
Timestamp: 0:02

...does not actually play when you fight Sans. Sorry for the spoiler.

This has the best reason of the 4 songs in this bonus section to be considered a video game theme, IMO. Given how unorthodox Undertale's boss themes are--and this piece's similarities with "Bonetrousle" (Sans's brother's boss theme)--this could easily fit in. I guess Sans is just too angry to use this song when he finally stops being too lazy to fight...

In the meantime, I ended up accepting this title:

Timestamp: 0:18

Apparently, actually trying to use the most famous song in the Mortal Kombat series in any of its video games runs into legal issues. Guess you might need to play the album while you're playing the games. ...It doesn't matter whether you're in an arcade at the time.

I mainly picked this melody out of the "Mortal Kombat Theme" because it was the easiest to transcribe.

I swear that the 4x dotted eighth note - 2x eighth note rhythmic motif was an unintentional sub-theme of this quiz...

For the record, Dudeman asked me for a tentative hint about the console of origin of #8 (or to decline if that narrowed it down too much). I told him it was the Nintendo 3DS, as there are four Kirby Nintendo 3DS games, to my knowledge, that have at least one original song in them. (Those would be Kirby: Triple Deluxe, Kirby: Planet Robobot, Kirby Fighters Deluxe, and Team Kirby Clash Deluxe.)

...OK, so maybe Kirby Fighters Deluxe doesn't quite count as much, but it has a piece that heavily remixes so hard that I count it as a nigh-separate piece.

It doesn't remix it as much as even the Masked Dedede theme remixes King Dedede's theme, IMO, and those are half-separate pieces in my mind.

"Secret Path" - [3DS] Kirby's Blowout Blast (Kirby #4)

Timestamp: 0:28 - 0:39

The Blowout Blast soundtrack mostly consists of remixes from Kirby's Dream Land tunes. In fact, this one's no exception; it's actually a remix of the KDL Ending theme. It's pretty hard to figure that out with only the part I transcribed, though.

I expected two people to recognize this one, actually. In the end, nobody got it. Looks like this path is just too much of a seekrit.

Quote from: Dekkadeci on July 01, 2017, 11:30:15 AMKirby's Blowout Blast is getting released on July 4, 2017 in Japan and July 6, 2017 elsewhere! Time to raid the plot and music then...

You didn't raid it quite enough, I see...

Which is precisely why pretty much the only things I remembered from the Kirby Blowout Blast soundtrack are that close to all the music is remixed from Kirby's Dream Land, its version of the Masked Dedede theme blends it with a Team Kirby Clash Deluxe-like remix of the Dyna Blade/Castle Lololo theme, and that a remix of the Halberd On Deck theme can be played.

Timestamp: 0:57 - 1:08

Damn I should really play this game but for whatever reason I've played Awakening and LBW first, am playing Minish Cap right now, and plan to play the Oracle games right after soooo maybe I should move this one up on my list

WAH'S MELODY QUIZ NO.6 (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/s9kz6b71u3bckh8/AACZ-u3A_vL20StGDBo59l9Ga?dl=0)

A few things about this quiz:
 - If there's a motif, I might want specifics (implying there is one, even though you don't necessarily know that).
 - There's one incredibly obscure melody in there, as there will be in all of the rest of my quizzes.
    - It does not follow regular difficulty order either.
 - As per usual, there is a bunch of Mario melodies.
 - Have fun.

I'll see some of you in the morning I guess.

Here! (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1ypvJAB5e3mtIzhbF1WQrYCDK0xgksiAluQNN9wuWxy8/edit?usp=sharing)
There was absolutely no theme in this quiz. I don't know why anybody would ever suspect that.

This time, the winners are... Lat and MSF!

This was pretty fun to watch. At first, Dudeman had a higher score than MSF, but then MSF pulled ahead and matched Lat's score. And watching people having just the tiniest suspicion that the theme this time was ending themes? I wonder where such a misconception came from?

Well here we go I guess. Let's get the answers rolling. 7 people submitted guesses.

#1
Hands-On Hall - Super Mario 3D World:

One of my favourites from 3D World's soundtrack, and hopefully this opinion is shared with the 2 people who guessed it.
[close]

#2
Lady Cupid - Rhythm Heaven Fever:

Yeah so I guess I'm the only person who listens to the Rhythm Heaven Fever soundtrack religiously in-depth. Also I guess removing the middle voice might've screwed over some people.
[close]

#3
Title Screen - Mega Man 4:

No, this wasn't because I like to be spiteful. I just picked this because it's a good underrated Mega Man title screen theme. Luckily that obvious 1 person got it.
[close]

#4
Main Menu/Map - Hotel Mario:

HEY LUIGI! PLAY THE SAX.

Also 2 dank memers got this one.
[close]

#5
Night Sakura of Dead Spirits - Touhou 13: Ten Desires:

Trying to confuse those few Touhou fans with this one, although I didn't suspect it would be hard for some of them. Well, only one of those participated, and only they got this one.
[close]

#6
Fortree City - Pokemon Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald Versions:

Really this doesn't deserve a spot so high up in the difficulty, but I felt like picking a place with its own music that tends to be forgotten (or so I thought, if 4 people have anything to say about it).
[close]

#7
And My Name's Booster - Super Mario RPG:

Have some good ol' SMRPG. 3 people got this one.
[close]

#8
Yoshi Desert - Mario Kart: Super Circuit:

A difficult but not overly difficult Mario Kart melody (after W A R I O  G A L L E O N anything would've been fair but I felt like being nice to 3 people).
[close]

#9
New-Age Retro Hippie - Earthbound:
Hippie Battle - Earthbound Beginnings:

Accepted either answer. I was kinda hoping to bamboozle people with this one, but 3 people are better than that.
[close]

#10
Gruntilda's Lair - Banjo-Kazooie:

I picked a well-known song, just a less remembered section of it (as we do), but it was caught out by 3 people.
[close]

#11
Sweden (Calm 3) - Minecraft:

brown bricks

Also this is a fairly well-known song and I expected more than 1 person to get it. Good nostalgia for me actually.
[close]

#12
DK Isles (Crystal Caves) - Donkey Kong 64:

How to make people not get your melody:
 - Pick a less popular game.
 - Pick the latter section of a well-known motif from it.
 - Have an arrangement project of the game's soundtrack appear on the site. Something I still can't thank you guys enough for. Really, I don't deserve it.
 - ???
 - Profit.

Luckily Yug_Guy got it. Thank you, my good sir.
[close]

#13
Great Edo Land - Chameleon Twist 2:

Yep. Here's the obscure one. I tried to be nice by picking one I have actually arranged (ages ago so that sheet is bad btw), but that didn't work lol. Listen to the song though, it's pretty great, like the rest of the game's soundtrack.
[close]

#14
New Bark Town - Pokemon Gold, Silver and Crystal Versions:

A popular town theme. Again, with the less-popular section. 4 people got it anyway.
[close]

#15
Main Theme - Pikmin:

Quote from: ThatHiddenCharacter15 Obviously Pikmin, but there's too many songs to go through.
Quote from: Yug_GuyAnd I know that #15 is based off of the Pikmin main theme, but I don't know what song specifically it is.
Quote from: mastersuperfan#15 is probably Pikmin something
really don't feel like looking for #15 at the moment
okay I just need to find #15 and I'll be satisfied
screw #15, I'm going to listen to Tooie music
Quote from: Static and WaluigiTime64S: #15: I know this is from Pikmin 2, but this is still just evil. I'll see if I can actually find the right track later. | wait a minute | wow | it | its just the map theme | gg | i expected it not to be so i searched everything but the map theme | well thats all i got for now | ill let you know if i find any more, but only like 2 others sound familiar rip
W: hey 2 would be alright
S: it would be lol
W: also when you say map theme which game are you referring to
S: 2
W: i'm pretty sure the motif is being used differently there
S: wait | hold on lemme check again | ok | yeah | in my head i heard it differently lol | ill keep searching | the rhythm is slightly different and its slower in world map compared to what you have | ill find it eventually
W: again the hint is you're overthinking it
S: hm
Quote from: Dudeman and WaluigiTime64W: Don't tell anyone else but you're the only person so far with #15 and I think that's absolutely hilarious.
D: Haaaaaaaaaa
How is that even possible
Even MSF was like "this sounds like Pikmin but I can't find it"

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

This didn't bamboozle a grand total of 1 person.
[close]

#16
Air Man Stage - Mega Man 2:

It's in Smash 4, and from MM2, so I expected it to be somewhat known. 4 people got it.
[close]

#17
Forest Frenzy - Donkey Kong Country:

A popular song from DKC. 2 people got it. Yug_Guy how did you not
[close]

#18
Desert Hills - Mario Kart DS:

I'm not hugely fond of this song, but I think it's still pretty good. 5 people got it.
[close]

#19
Title Screen - Sonic the Hedgehog:

If you remember one of THC's quizzes, you were fine, provided you didn't just know it already. 5 people got this one.
[close]

#20
Yoshi's Island - Super Mario World:

So it should be obvious by this one that I flipped the layout of difficulty on this quiz. Unsurprisingly 6 people did get it.

Post by: Olimar12345 on August 09, 2017, 08:35:12 AM
It's the theme that reoccurs very frequently throughout the entire series. In fact, it's also used as title theme music for every game (minus H!P that I know of).

@Waluigi the tiny snippet you used of it makes it nearly impossible to pin down which one it is.

Post by: WaluigiTime64 on August 09, 2017, 11:40:11 AM
Oh I would've been perfectly fine with any other answer that used the motif the exact same way. Only one person gave an answer that did.

Plus being the first song and having appeared in Smash I figured some people would get it that way.

Quote from: WaluigiTime64 on August 07, 2017, 04:41:06 AMA few things about this quiz:
 - If there's a motif, I might want specifics (implying there is one, even though you don't necessarily know that).
tbh I probably scared people with this. I can't ask for specifics when a motif is used the exact same way multiple times, plus I was prepared to be quite lenient with this one (with a range of about 10BPM fast and slow).

So it was not the greatest idea to laugh about it, but I can't say I was completely unfair. I just needed a reasonably correct answer.


also Mael what even is this quiz

Title: Re: LeviR.star's Somewhat Triweekly Guess-That-Melody Quiz!
Post by: Maelstrom on August 11, 2017, 04:19:18 PM
Hints for each pair
#1 - Both are the same genre and at least one game from the series, but not all, on the same system.
#2 - The furthest apart in terms of release dates. Both have similar types of enemies.
#3 - Strangely, the 2nd song came first, even though the game took a lot of ideas from the first.
#4 - Both are handheld RPGs. Hints because only one person got one of these and these aren't easy.
#5 - These games have bizarrely similar gameplay, despite being different genres.

So apparently ThatHiddenCharacter's quiz isn't ready yet, so after I got PM'd to host this round, here's my sixth Guess-The-Song Quiz:
[PDF] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZSFVUcXFSejhLTkE) | [MIDI] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZSVlqWG9Mdzl4NjQ) | [MUS] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZblJaRVR0cFIyZEE) | [MSCZ] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZUlhDcE5Ub3ZISkE)

The MUS is readable in Finale, including Finale Notepad. The MSCZ is readable in Musescore. All other files are based on the original MSCZ, not the MUS--this explains why the PDF doesn't look like the MUS.
The MUS may display and/or play back bugged. The MSCZ, MIDI, and PDF shouldn't.

This quiz is likely around the same difficulty as my last quiz, though don't feel too bad if you only get one or two! PM away!

You can PM answers to me until Monday, August 14 at 5:00 PM MDT (a.k.a. Tuesday, August 15 12:00 AM forum default time). I will not count any submissions made after that time, as I'll be too busy tallying results.
Results will be posted shortly afterwards.

Some guidelines for answering, how the melodies are transcribed, and what counts as a correct answer--oh yeah, and some hints right off the bat:

Answers now because I forgot
1 (4/6)
Wind Scene (Chrono Trigger)
Timestamp: 0:00
Probably the easiest song on the quiz.
[close]
2 (0/6)
Game Over (Breath of Fire 3)
Timestamp: 0:00
When I found out about this song, I couldn't not use it in the quiz, even if it was a bit mean. It's just so close to ripping of the original it's hilarious.

3 (4/6)
Bloody Tears (Castlevania 2)

Someone might have already used this.....

4 (0/6)
Six Feet Thunder (Crypt of the NecroDancer Amplified)

Ok, like a lot of these second melodies, this was a tad obscure.
[close]
5 (1/6)
Pursuit ~ Wanting to Find the Truth (Ace Attorney Investigations 2)
Timestamp: 0:12
A little obscure, but this pair was one of the first things I think of when I think of video game songs sounding suspiciously close to each other.
[close]
6 (0/6)
Endless Nine (Umineko)

MUSICAL SPOILERS FOR UMINEKO if you care about that sort of thing.
Just go play Umineko. You won't regret it.

A World Where Blossoms Fall

I even posted that these two songs sounded really similar a while ago. Ok, maybe a long time ago.
[close]
9 (3/6)
Your Best Nightmare (Undertale)
Timestamp: 2:55
Literally the next song. Fun fact: the next phase is literally the bassline of the PC-98 Bad Apple with small modifications. It's even in the same key.

Here are the answers to my latest quiz:

#1
"Brinstar", from Metroid, used as a stage theme
Timestamp: 0:38

Quite possibly the most famous song in the entire Metroid series--at least if you've played any Smash Bros. games. So, naturally, a lot of people got this correct.

4 out of 4 people got this correct.

#2
"Head Honcho Carpaccio", from Wario: Master of Disguise, used as Carpaccio's boss theme
Timestamp: 0:00

IMO, this is the best song in the Wario: Master of Disguise OST. But I'm a sucker for tarantellas, so of course I'm biased.

It's rare to find a rock tarantella in an OST anyway, isn't it?

In the meantime, I'm not sure whether this counts as a Mario song or not. Wario branched out pretty hard in the WarioWare series, so...

#3
"The Ultimate Show", from Super Paper Mario, used as the final boss theme
Timestamp: 0:29

Yeah, this song is actually spoiler-ridden if you've gotten part of the way through the game--note this melody's resemblance to "It's Showtime" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xst5I01nFOs)...which I marked as incorrect because it's in the wrong meter and the wrong key.

Zero points for guessing that the same boss is involved with these two boss themes at this point.

#4
"Ordeal Boss (Orchestra)"/"Ordeal! (Orchestral)", from Team Kirby Clash Deluxe, used as a boss theme
Timestamp: 0:32

I also accepted "Ordeal Boss (Electronic)" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qz_mhixClbw)--the two are slight remixes of each other, anyway.

This melody has one of the most obvious uses of a Neapolitan chord (a bII chord) I've ever heard in Kirby music. This counts using Neapolitan chords "properly" like classical music would, not the bII spam heavy metal tends to do.

Good for Jun Ishikawa and Hirokazu Ando for branching out. Give me more of that next time--this is already one of my favourite Kirby boss themes of all time (including character-specific boss themes).

And it's pleasantly unusual how this song sounds like it's in verse-chorus form...

"Battle! (Gladion)"/"Vs. Gladion"/"Gladion Battle Theme"/"Rival Gladion Battle Music"/"Gladion's Theme", from Pokemon Sun and Pokemon Moon, used as Gladion's battle theme

I was going to use different Pokemon songs instead, but then I found that this one was the easiest to transcribe. Sigh.

#6
"Everfrost Peak", from Diddy Kong Racing, used as a racetrack theme
Timestamp: 0:45

As much as the Diddy Kong Racing DS version (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U1A3UFgpQdo) mucks around a bit with note lengths and octave voicing, I also decided to accept that later version.

Fun fact: this is the very first VGM theme I tried to arrange for piano. Yeah, I forgot around half the song back then. My theme and variations for this song weren't going anywhere back then. Oh yeah, I think I was working on it with Finale Notepad...in 2008 or earlier.

Shucks, when ThatHiddenCharacter put a Diddy Kong Racing song in a Guess-The-Song quiz, I thought that indicated he knew a fair chunk of that game's OST...guess I may be mistaken.

#7
"The Defender (Black Knight Battle)", from Shovel Knight, used as the Black Knight's last boss theme
Timestamp: 0:17

...In case the above doesn't work, there's always this link (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PoGF5WrMplw).

And no, the Black Knight is not a multi-stage boss, where his stages would get fought consecutively. He just gets fought more than once in the game.

Yeah, I purposefully cut off this melody right before it hits the "Strike the Earth!" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wqAYMZSOQao)-like motif the Black Knight seems fond of quoting. But hey, at least this is one of the strongest and most consonant melodies in this piece!

If you want trickier, the later parts of this piece start sounding like "In the Halls of the Usurper" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4uOuLH5xKVc), and the chromatic run in the second loop's version of the intro sounds like it could have come out of "The Destroyer" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hKRngIDQsms).

#9
"Monty on the Run"/"Monty on the Run Theme"/"Main Theme", from Monty on the Run, used as the title theme
Timestamp: 0:36

This is apparently another seminal 8-bit tune, to the point that I Wanna Be the Guy also used this song (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m1N6IqIq_Rg).

Fun fact: this song (especially this melody) is based on "Devil's Galop" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F2eqX93umXo) by someone named Charles Williams. You might know that song better as the song Monty Python's "Spanish Inquisition" sketch used.

#10
"Shadow Showdown"/"Final Boss", from Drawn to Life, used as the final boss theme
Timestamp: 0:00

I found this song a wee bit too difficult to transcribe back when I was compiling the final boss bonus section of my 4th Guess-The-Song quiz, mainly because multiple (counter-)melody lines are often playing at once. I found a section that was playing one unambiguous melody line (the very start) and used it for this quiz.

...Yeah, this song is obscure enough that this was a candidate for #5b in that old bonus section. But it somehow has several piano arrangements on YouTube... (https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=drawn+to+life+final+boss+piano)

"Final of Puyo Puyo", from Puyo Puyo, used as the final boss theme
Timestamp: 1:03

"2 Player", from Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine, used as a multiplayer stage theme
Timestamp: 0:58

Lots of companies love slapping their own characters on others' puzzle games. Yes, I fully accepted both songs above--Dr. Robotnik's Mean Bean Machine is blatantly based on the Puyo Puyo series, anyway, down to the items the characters drop and several other songs.

This song choice is a bit influenced by LuxraySpiral's inclusion of a Puyo Puyo song in an earlier Guess-The-Song quiz, so I decided to put in likely the most famous Puyo Puyo song (mainly famous because it showed up in a Sonic game, too). Dang, guess it's not that famous after all.

#12
"Above the Halberd", from Kirby Super Star, used as a cutscene theme
Timestamp: 0:00

I'm still convinced this song rips its characteristic rhythm from "Mars" from The Planets (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cXOanvv4plU) (by Gustav Holst).

At any rate, the Kirby series has been increasing the rate it remixes this short song lately. Why it gets stapled to the other Kirby themes it does, I have no idea...

#15
"Grasswalk", from Plants vs. Zombies, used as the first stage theme
Timestamp: 0:25

Due to multiple people actually getting my last Plants vs. Zombies song correct, I tried to find an easy-to-transcribe melody from that OST that wasn't from the only Plants vs. Zombies song I fully remembered (the mini-game theme). Despite being from nearly 30 seconds into a rather drab background theme (IMO), I guess this melody was not only correctly transcribed, it's also memorable.

"Windmill Hut", from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
Timestamp: 0:07

I also ended up accepting "Song of Storms" from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time as correct, even though it's technically shorter than this melody (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZM1BecOWj74), because pretty much every remix uses the fuller "Windmill Hut" theme and then credits it as "Song of Storms" instead.

...Including the Super Smash Bros. Brawl remix (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KuM1bVx1oNQ). Here's looking at you.

THIRD ROUND HYPE

MSF ROUND C (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/8mfg1riv6o3rrct/AACq2aBcEbORhabJjkXjzI6Aa?dl=0)

This quiz should be easier. ...I hope. Only time will tell. But if you scored low on Round B, fear not; this round should go more smoothly!

Difficulty goes something like:
The difficulty should also be more constant and randomly mixed throughout each section (mostly because trying to order everything in scaling difficulty order never worked anyways).

Crossovers: I probably should have elaborated on this earlier, but I'll do it now. Crossovers of two or three series only will count for all represented series (e.g. Hyrule Warriors, Pokkén Tournament, Professor Layton vs. Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney). Games with more than three franchises (e.g. Super Smash Bros., Project X Zone) will count as their own series.

Once again, there are no games on this quiz that were on the last quiz (Round B). I'll compile and post a list later.

Finally, one last reminder: you still have hints! Half of you still have three hints remaining, so now's the time to use 'em if you need 'em. The list of remaining hints for each player is as follows:

Hints Remaining
Dekkadeci: 1
Dudeman: 3
InsigTurtle: 2
Latios212: 3
LeviR.star: 2
Maelstrom: 3
Static: 3
ThatHiddenCharacter: 1
WaluigiTime64: 2
Yug_Guy: 3
[close]

The usual stuff:

Quote from: mastersuperfan on July 14, 2017, 09:17:33 PM
Franchise Representation
The four main franchises are all represented exactly four times--three times between the Easy and Medium sections and once in the Hard section:
  • Mario
  • Kirby
  • Pokémon
  • Zelda
Luigi, Yoshi, and Captain Toad games all count as Mario. Wario and Donkey Kong games do not.

Other than these four franchises, no series is repeated within a single quiz.
[close]

The Hint System
Here is where things might get a little convoluted. Each of you are all going to have three hints over my next four quizzes. You can message me with a request for a hint on a specific melody if you know you've heard but you don't know where from.

The catch? I post the hint publicly in the thread for everyone to see. Be assured, however, that the person who requested the hint will remain anonymous until the end of the round.

Hints will be larger for the Hard melodies and smaller for the Easy melodies since, well, the Hard melodies are obviously harder. I would advise you to list any information about the song that you think you already know so I can avoid giving you information that overlaps that isn't useful to you.

You can use multiple hints on a single quiz if you wish. You can also choose not to use all of your hints, or any at all. You cannot, however, use multiple hints on the same melody or request a hint for a melody that someone else requested a hint for.

Now, go nuts.

I find it pretty funny that 10 and 13 haven't been guessed yet. It's really nothing more than that the right people just haven't shown up yet...

By the way, I realized that #22 would probably be better notated in 4/4. I transcribed it in 3/4 because the percussion loops every three beats, but the melody itself fits much better in four-bar phrases in 4/4. Once I get home on my computer I'll update that.

By the way, one person finally got a 4/4 for one series!

On a different note, I've updated the files with some corrections: mainly, I've removed the grace notes in #4 (thanks to a suggestion from the one and only person who's recognized it so far), and I've changed #22 to be in 4/4 instead of 3/4. It might be worth re-downloading the files to take another look:

Now, back on the subject of my quiz: another scoreboard update. Ten people have guesses in--and nine of them are returning competitors from Rounds A and B.

Scoreboard (Update #2)
Black = 0 people
Red = 1-2 people
Green = 3-4 people
Blue = 5-6 people
Purple = 7+ people

1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  |  9  10  11  12  13  14  15  16  |  17  18  19  20  21  22  23  24  25  ?  |  37
[close]

If we compare scores between this quiz and Round B, there's a clear increase in scores from then to now. While the average is only marginally higher (6.5 now, or 6.78 only counting the nine returning competitors, compared to 6.2 in Round B), 7 people have higher scores in this round, while 2 people have lower scores. It's... an improvement, I suppose? At the least, the Medium section seems to be easier, even if the Hard section isn't getting many guesses...

Here's a list of all the games in Round B that aren't on this quiz:

Games NOT on This Quiz
Mario:
  • [N64] Super Mario 64
  • [3DS] Mario & Luigi: Dream Team
  • [3DS] Mario Kart 7
  • [Wii] Mario Kart Wii

Kirby:
  • [3DS] Kirby: Planet Robobot
  • [Wii] Kirby's Epic Yarn
  • [Wii] Kirby's Return to Dream Land
  • [3DS] Kirby's Blowout Blast

Pokémon:
  • [NDS] Pokémon Diamond & Pearl Versions (Platinum may still be represented)
  • [GBA] Pokémon Ruby & Sapphire Versions (Emerald may still be represented)
  • [NDS] Pokémon Black 2 & White 2 Versions
  • [3DS] Pokémon X & Y

Zelda:
  • [GCN] The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker
  • [N64] The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time
  • [MUL] The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
  • [GBC] The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages / Seasons (neither version is on this quiz)

Miscellaneous:
  • [Wii] Wii Sports
  • [NES] Mega Man 2
  • [3DS] Kid Icarus: Uprising
  • [NDS] Rhythm Heaven
  • [iOS] Love Live! School idol Festival
  • [SNES] Final Fantasy VI
  • [3DS] Zero Escape: Virtue's Last Reward
  • [XBOX360] Eternal Sonata
  • [3DS] Azure Striker Gunvolt
[close]

Finally, a hint got requested for #11:

Requested Hints (1) - #11
  • #11: From one of the four main series. The transcribed melody is the entire loop. While the song is first heard during a certain cutscene, it does not play exclusively during that cutscene (i.e. it also plays outside of the cutscene).

Another hint got requested for, of all things, #25 (although it has already been guessed by someone). You can find it below:

It is Saturday, August 19th in CST.

Alright, the Title of this quiz is "Noc's Favorites".  That's already a huge hint and I expect everyone to guess most of these.

1. Unguessable
2. Easy
3. Difficult
4. Moderate
5. Easy
6. Easy
7. Difficult
8. Easy
9. Medium
10. Easy

1 is worth 3 points, 3 and 7 are worth 2 points, and everything else is worth 1 point

So I made a list of my 10 favorite games and selected songs only from within those 10 games.  Anyone who can correctly name every game represented on the quiz gets an additional point.  The maximum score therefore is 15 points.  Good luck yall

Some more than less than maddeningly unhelpful tips
-measure 8 might be transcribed incorrectly
-melody 3 might be slightly wrong rhythmwise, but I tried to get it as close to the original as I could without doing anything dumb
that is to say I put minimal effort into the least barely acceptable version I was able to
-whenever possible, I cheated and used a melody arranged on the main site as long as it looked accurate to me

Unless you're going to nail us on precise notes in the melody, Noc, I think #7 is significantly easier than your difficulty level would indicate.

Results will be posted sometime this evening. At the moment I'm estimating around 11:00 PM EST (a little less than 9 hours from now).

As I've done before, I'll throw this last tidbit at you now:
Levi just told me that he won't be back until Tuesday. Since I don't want to postpone the results again, what I'll do is post the results tonight, but let Levi participate later without looking at the results post (assuming he comes back Tuesday as expected, I'll temporarily remove the answers from the results post while he competes).

end of day update

unsurprisingly, melody #1 remains unguessed

surprisingly, Dudeman has not gotten #3.

unsurprisingly, nobody else has gotten #3 either.

surprisingly, multiple people have gotten #7

nobody has attempted to guess the names of all games appearing.  To successfully do so now is worth 3 points, making the quiz worth 17 total points.

here's a hint: melody #1 comes from one of the most popular video games of all time

A nice track, I guess. I'm actually not too fond of the original GSC versions since I grew up with HGSS. I was tempted to transcribe the swing HGSS version and mark GSC wrong, but that would've been a little mean.

This one isn't too remembered from its original appearance as a map theme, but it's in the Easy section because of the myriad of remixes that it has received throughout the series. At this point I'd say it's becoming a staple Kirby melody.

It's still not well-known by the majority of the competitors, unfortunately.

Not the most well-known of tracks from this game, but it's got a good few covers across YouTube, notably by Smooth McGroove and Tsuko G., so I was hoping several people would get it. Three Majora's Mask fans knew this one, along with one non-fan. How'd Mael miss this one?

A map theme may have been a tad tricky, but I wanted to use a Sand Canyon track and I was running short on options. Sand Canyon 1 got used in Static's second quiz. Sand Canyon 2 is just a remix of Gourmet Race. And Sand Canyon 3... well, that got remixed in Planet Robobot (https://youtu.be/PUOkUZdwpmo), and we don't want Dudeman getting more points than he already has, do we?

To my surprise, ThatHiddenCharacter was the only one to get this one. Nice job.

To gauge obscurity, I investigated a little to figure out when this track played in-game, but I think I spoiled myself on the biggest plot twist in the game in the process. Oops?

Y'know, I thought we had more than just two Bravely Default music fans in here, but maybe it's just me...

"Sanctuary" - [Wii] The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess (Zelda #3)

Timestamp: 0:00 - 0:13

Probably one of the hardest songs in the Medium section; it sounds nice, but it seems like it gets overlooked a lot. I figured it would also be a bit tricky to recognize without the harmony. Dudeman got it anyways. Good for you.

I actually don't remember very much about this dude, but I was hoping that the fact that he's appeared in four different generations would help to lower the obscurity level a bit. Thankfully, it worked.

I find it funny how the intro gets faster with every remix...

It looks like even the Golden Sun fans around here aren't familiar with The Lost Age's music. Which is a little surprising, because from what I've read this game is just as highly regarded as the original (although with Dark Dawn it's an entirely different story).

By the way, fun fact: this is in Brawl!

Quote from: Dekkadeci on June 17, 2017, 01:52:14 PM...as I thought that F-Zero is a series that's under-represented in these quizzes.

I'm going to hazard a guess and say that's mostly because people just aren't familiar with F-Zero music. It almost makes me wonder why I picked this melody in the first place Static you're making me look bad here

If you noticed, this is indeed the last miscellaneous track on the quiz! I took all the four main series' Hard melodies and shoved them at the end of the section because... why not?

Persona (and SMT in general) really isn't a series that gets any attention around here. I don't know anything about it either, really. In which case you might ask, how do I know this song and why did I use it? Simple. Tsuko G. made a cover of it! (https://youtu.be/VuB7QiqU_ro?t=45s)

"Desert Palace" - [3DS] The Legend of Zelda: A Link Between Worlds (Zelda #4)

Timestamp: 1:00 - 1:17

Damn, nobody got this one. I'm legitimately surprised. I picked the part I did intentionally because I thought it'd be difficult to recognize, though, especially since I remembered this track primarily for the choir instead.

The percussion looping every three beats really trips up the time signature of this theme, doesn't it? When it even has one, that is...

Quote from: NocturneOfShadow on August 16, 2017, 07:32:27 PMseriously, there are very few Zelda songs that I don't know by listening
I even know the ALBW soundtrack, which is a good game to mess with people

I'm not sure why I ever got this game in the first place, but man, was this game my childhood.

Yeah, I know this game is half-Sonic, but this was the primary reason why I made sure to include the note about crossover games at the beginning. I always played as the Mario characters, too, so this was basically a Mario game to me anyways...

"Desert Scorcher" - [NDS] Kirby Mass Attack (Kirby #4)

Did you know? This track is a remix of the Island Sisters' (Twin Nuts') song (https://youtu.be/A-0rpqtoQ7Y?t=7s) in Kirby: Right Back At Ya!... the TV show, for anyone who remembers or ever watched that in the first place. (I did, by the way.) Said song also got another remix (https://youtu.be/NmiwE-0C5EU) in Rainbow Curse, but it didn't include the melody that I transcribed here.

Naturally, I picked the unmemorable and difficult-to-recognize intro that wasn't actually in the original song, so it was rather tricky. I couldn't trip up one person, though; major kudos to Static for getting this one--and right away, no less.

Hint: From one of the four main series (indeed, it is!). Boss battle theme. The game was never released in North America. (requested by InsigTurtle)

Yes, you read that title correctly. I went there.

My GOD is this track so incredibly badass that it just makes me wonder WHY THE HELL THIS IS IN A TYPING GAME OF ALL THINGS

For some reason this game never got an NA release. It was, of course, released in Japan, but it was also released in Europe and even in that nonexistent country (continent?) they call Australia (or was it Austria? I don't remember), but not in North America. Why, Nintendo? I want my badass typing game :(

Hilariously enough, it looks like I'm not the only one who knows this track. High five to Latios!

Y'know, I'm really not sure what was going through my head when I was transcribing this. I think I was high. Or something. Maybe it was because I drank too much milk.

IMPOSSIBLE

#37 (8/12)
You know, I actually still don't know what it is. That's how impossible this one is. I heard it in the background of some YouTube video and posted a comment asking for the song name, but everyone replied to me with some stupid meme song. Talk about unhelpful...

So I turned to NSM, hoping that a few of you might recognize this one and help me out in this here pickle. But you guys spammed me with even more memes! Even worse, every single person gave a different answer!

And since, to this moment, I'm still not even sure what the name of the song is, I will unfortunately not be able to award any points for getting this melody correct. I'm sorry. Please understand.

Finally, I'll leave you all with one last note. On Round D, the fourth and final round of this 100-point competition, there will only be 3 tracks from each main series instead of 4. Yep, that's right. Only 3 Mario, 3 Kirby, 3 Pokémon, and 3 Zelda melodies; one in Easy, one in Medium, and one in Hard.

Of course, this means that the rest of the melodies will be categorized as Miscellaneous instead. So the next quiz will have a whopping 13 Miscellaneous melodies--4 in Easy, 4 in Medium, and 5 in Hard. This is not a decision I've made lightly (in fact, it's actually very liberating in terms of designing and balancing the quiz), and now I'm very interested as to how the final results will come out, especially considering our current three-way tie for second place overall.

Overall all 100 melodies, we'll have had 15 melodies from each of the four main series and 40 Miscellaneous melodies. You can bet that I'm going to summarize results over all 100 melodies in one final post, so don't give up on Round D, your last chance to do well and demonstrate just how well you know your video game soundtracks.

Hope you had fun this round, folks. See you next time.

"Sand Canyon Map" - [SNES] Kirby's Dream Land 3 (Kirby #3)

Timestamp: 0:00 - 0:12

Hint: From one of the four main series. The transcribed melody is the entire loop. While the song is first heard during a certain cutscene, it does not play exclusively during that cutscene (i.e. it also plays outside of the cutscene). (requested by Static)

(https://www.ninsheetmusic.org/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FJzLrZya.png&hash=974bb016b2482f7699de1e7d93bec926b4007b8d)   (https://www.ninsheetmusic.org/forum/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FtIZEaZx.png&hash=06d3962d2db6714fa3ee0dd8f6031e7ffb9d8c80)

A map theme may have been a tad tricky, but I wanted to use a Sand Canyon track and I was running short on options. Sand Canyon 1 got used in Static's second quiz. Sand Canyon 2 is just a remix of Gourmet Race. And Sand Canyon 3... well, that got remixed in Planet Robobot (https://youtu.be/PUOkUZdwpmo), and we don't want Dudeman getting more points than he already has, do we?

NIce job to ThatHiddenCharacter for being the only one to get this one. (Until Levi gets here, that is...)

He never got it.

I actually don't remember very much about this dude, but I was hoping that the fact that he's appeared in four different generations would help to lower the obscurity level a bit. Thankfully, it worked.

I find it funny how the intro gets faster with every remix...

Now for some assorted thoughts from your reigning MSF quiz champion:

Believe it or not, I only missed one easy melody on quizzes A and C. Coincidentally, the number I missed both times was oh dear this is embarrassing...number 7.

Trasdegi, the reason nobody else got the Hearthstone theme is because this is NSM.

I never thought this would happen, but...I opened the spoiler tag for #???, right? And there's the video. I know what the answer was, I got it. I clicked the video, ready to hear one of my favorite high-quality rips, and...
As the video hit 0:05, I froze. I was bamboozled. This was not what I was ready to hear. For the first time in my life, I clicked on a video that I thought was a high-quality rip...and instead I got a high-quality rip.

Step 1: Download file(s).
Step 2: Listen to quiz.
Step 3: Recognize almost none of the songs on said quiz.
Step 4: Make a poorly organized PM to the host of said quiz.
Step 5: Become extremely frustrated that there's one song you know that you know, but can't figure out.
Step 6: Become even more frustrated when you find out said song is one of your favorite songs and you were just overcomplicating it.
Step 7: GRAND DAD!

I hoped this earlier comment of mine would spoil things hard enough, and I thought Noc already indicating that multiple people got #7 right meant that I wouldn't spoil anyone else at this point who knew where the avatar was from:
Quote from: Dekkadeci on August 18, 2017, 10:37:09 PMUnless you're going to nail us on precise notes in the melody, Noc, I think #7 is significantly easier than your difficulty level would indicate.
Let's just say I'd already been exposed to how "significantly easier" #7 is than I previously thought before Noc released his quiz.

In the meantime, I'm surprised I still can't get #8 despite me being familiar with the melody.

Quote from: NocturneOfShadow on August 19, 2017, 08:19:49 AMfor #4, I can tell you that I chose it because it's a track I love but feel is underrated by its respective fanbase

He sure was right about that; honestly, I hardly remember this one. To be fair, it's the same motif as the main theme, but I didn't bother to look here...

I originally made this quiz with the intent of creating something that neither Dudeman nor mastersuperfan would have a chance of winning... But of course it ended up with a quiz that no one had a chance of winning. However, two lucky souls have correctly guessed a melody each, and that is a feat in and of itself that really shouldn't be understated.

Fortunately, my next quiz I have planned will be much, much easier than this (and probably quite a few of my earlier quizzes as well).

Anyhoo:

3 people have guessed so far. Of the melodies, 11, 13, 14, and 16 have not been guessed. One of these is the obscure melody.

Now for some basic information on the quiz (that may or may not help):
- There's 4 Mario melodies amongst these 16.
 - All of the main 4 series (Mario, Pokemon, Zelda, Kirby) get some representation.
 - Excluding Super Mario, every franchise only gets represented once.
 - There is no Yoshi. There just isn't.
 - It is possible for someone here to know the obscure melody.

I suppose that's what I get for playing exactly one of the games in Static's last quiz...without the sound on.

For Wah's currently quiz, I know 14 (but only from combing soundtracks for previous quizzes' guesses).

I don't think 14 is the obscure melody...right?

#4's hint was so huge I got the song based on that.

(I'd previously asked Wah if the song was from the Mario series, given its resemblance to the Mario Invincibility Star theme, and he said no. The hint also says it's not from the Marioverse.)

As I've posted in the "I'm Away" topic, I'll be taking a trip from Aug. 29 to Sept. 1, 2017, so I'll have limited Internet access then and I won't be able to open .mus's and possibly MIDIs.

Somehow, I might not miss any Guess-That-Song quizzes, assuming I guess on Monday, Aug. 28 and Friday, Sept. 1...

...but I didn't feel like putting too much stress on myself for the upcoming Sept. 2 quiz I'm hosting, so I'm telling you all that my next quiz is a Redux Quiz!

Nearly half the quiz (as of right now) is made of melodies from songs people have put in their previous quizzes (be they me or someone else). If someone else uses any of the melodies I've already used in my next quiz, I'll check that I transcribed unused portions.

There are two melodies in the end that I've transcribed from unofficial remixes of VGM themes, but not their originals. Don't comb actual video game OSTs for them. I'll tell more details about them when the quiz is released.

Post by: WaluigiTime64 on August 26, 2017, 04:31:29 AM
Alrighty. Answers. Or something idk. 11 people participated.

Easy Section:

#1
Underwater - Super Mario Bros.:

Timestamp: 0:14

More than the "give-me" point. It's the slightly less iconic but still very well-known theme from this game. Obviously everyone got this.

[close]

#2
Lost Woods - The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time:

Timestamp: 0:01

Had to pick an easy Zelda melody because there's no way I could've judged difficulty. This led to 10 of 11 people getting it.

[close]

#3
Route 101 - Pokemon Ruby, Sapphire and Emerald Versions:

Timestamp: 0:00

An easy-enough Pokemon melody, which was even toned down (originally it was the latter half of the song). Even then, I probably could've used something easier to get more than 6 people guessing it.

[close]

#4
Corkboard - Kirby Super Star:

Timestamp: 0:00

Hint:
Quote from: WaluigiTime64 on August 24, 2017, 01:48:18 PM#4: Not a Mario melody, but another popular Nintendo franchise. Plays in the menu.

Oops. This naturally got confused with the Invincibility Theme from Super Mario, but it's not even from that franchise. Good thing 4 people managed to get it anyway.

Scores affected by the hint: 2

[close]

Medium Section:

#5
Title Screen - Kid Icarus:

Hint:
Quote from: WaluigiTime64 on August 24, 2017, 12:52:35 AM#5: Less well-known part of a reasonably well-known title screen of a Nintendo game. Played by chiptune.

Timestamp: 0:25

Every knows the first bit, but how many people know the later bits? 6 out of 11 people apparently.

Scores affected by the hint: 1 (possibly 2?)

[close]

#6
Spear of Justice - Undertale:

Timestamp: 0:47

Yes. I did mark someone incorrect for guessing "NGAHHH", as this section isn't in that song. THC suggested that this be in the Easy Section, and he's probably not wrong considering 8 people got it.

[close]

#7
Double Cherry Pass - Super Mario 3D World:

Timestamp: 0:04

This was toned down as well (same thing as Route 101), but I don't know how much of a difference that made to the 7 people who got it.

[close]

#8
Title Screen - Mega Man 3

Timestamp: 0:00

Not quite as popular as its predecessor's title screen, but still fairly well-known. 4 people got it.

[close]

Hard Section:

#9
Packing Pests 2 - Rhythm Heaven Fever:

Timestamp: 0:03

I picked this piece in particular only because some people might've known it from Remix 10, as it appears at the start and end of it. 3 people got this one.

[close]

#10
Chain Chomp Roulette - Mario Kart Wii:

Timestamp: 0:46

I like me some jazz. 2 people got this. Also no Maelstrom, this is not swing Brodyquest.

[close]

#11  (OBSCURE MELODY)
Green Garden - Bomberman 64:

Timestamp: 0:10

Hint:
Quote from: WaluigiTime64 on August 25, 2017, 12:02:29 AM#11: The level this music plays in is the only one in the game based on a secondary colour.
y'know if i wasn't being harassed criticised about my hints i might've been more considerate with this one but oh well

Ah... good nostalgia. I figured it would be reasonably guessable, but only one person got it, and it was a surprise guesser too.

Scores affected by the hint: 0

[close]

#12
Main Title - Banjo-Kazooie:
Banjo's Theme - Banjo-Tooie: (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NBwFV9jlK8Y)

Timestamp: 0:52

Hint:
Quote from: WaluigiTime64 on August 24, 2017, 01:48:18 PM#12 All of the leading instruments in this particular piece are diegetic in-game. The transcribed part is played by 4 different instruments.

I did this just to humour myself. It did bamboozle some people quite a bit too, and in the end only 3 people got it. So much for a massive hint lol.

Scores affected by the hint: 0

[close]

Lunatic Section:

#13
Apotos Day - Windmill Isle - Sonic Unleashed:

Timestamp: 0:28

There's like, one or two people I can think of who maybe possibly could've gotten this one. Too bad no one did.

[close]

#14
Cranky's Lab - Donkey Kong 64:

Timestamp: 0:00

This would be a bit more patronising if everyone knew the role of this song in the game. Anyone who's played this game would get it in a heartbeat, but that quite frankly is a small number of people. Actually only two people guessed it anyway lol.

[close]

#15
Last Remote - Touhou 11: Subterranean Animism:

Timestamp: 2:09

If I picked the section just after this one, it would've been quite easy for a Touhou one. Because I'm mean, I didn't, and I intentionally picked the part of the song that's very difficult to get, which worked on all but one person. Really there's no point in giving intermediate Touhou melodies, because I know almost exactly who'll get various ones.

[close]

#16
Western Land - Mario Party 2:

Timestamp: 0:51

HOOTENANNY

I love this song so much. I haven't even played this game yet but the music is on-point. I kinda hinted (sort of eh not really idk) to a Mario Party 2 melody appearing by randomly posting Mario Party 2 stuff, but I probably didn't do it enough. In fact, the only one who got it was a surprise guesser.

Combining that with the different key signature and drastically different tempo it's nearly impossible to get me to accept this one.

I'm filling in for Maelstrom this round, so here's my seventh Guess-The-Song Quiz:
[PDF] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZZmtfTlpYRklyeXc) | [MIDI] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZTkJxb2l6R1FRLWM) | [MUS] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZdWxmTHFwUk81OVU) | [MSCZ] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZbU9kdkFRNmRjVms)

The MUS is readable in Finale, including Finale Notepad. The MSCZ is readable in Musescore. All other files are based on the original MSCZ, not the MUS--this explains why the PDF doesn't look like the MUS.
The MUS may display and/or play back bugged. The MSCZ, MIDI, and PDF shouldn't.

As I've mentioned earlier, nearly half this quiz is made of melodies from songs used in previous quizzes! More hints regarding them are below.

There are two bonus questions at the end of this quiz, #K wutthe? and #F this! They are from unofficial remixes of VGM themes that aren't in any actual video games or their OSTs (to my knowledge). I have many hints regarding them below. As they're quite possibly the hardest melodies in this quiz even with the hints, they aren't in their own section.

Again, don't feel too bad if you only get one or two! PM away! I want more than 4 people participating in this quiz this time how do some hosts get 11 participants?!?

You can PM answers to me until Monday, August 28 at 5:00 PM MDT (a.k.a. Tuesday, August 29 12:00 AM forum default time). I will not count any submissions made after that time, as I'll be too busy tallying results.
Results will be posted shortly afterwards.

Some guidelines for answering, how the melodies are transcribed, and what counts as a correct answer--oh yeah, and some hints right off the bat:

Some hints for the bonus melodies, #K wutthe? and #F this!:

I've added some more hints to my round for the sake of completeness, and I've even had to correct one of the hints just now.

"Hi, can I speak to Champ?"

"Who?"

"Champ? Is Champ there?"

"Who is Champ?"

"THAT QUESTION WILL BE ANSWERED THIS WEEK WHEN DUDEMAN DEFENDS THE BELT AT THE NSM TRIWEEKLY GUESS-THAT-MELODY QUIZ"

MSF ROUND D (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/33t1wodlmy2yrfm/AADTx21EZbCbJVR7W-FDuYLsa?dl=0)

THC can't post his quiz today, so I'll be taking over. LET'S GOOOOOO

IMPORTANT NOTICE #1: This quiz is different from the last three quizzes in that there are only 3 melodies from each of the four main franchises--one in Easy, one in Medium, and one in Hard. This means that we'll have a whopping 13 Miscellaneous melodies this time around--4 in Easy, 4 in Medium, and 5 in Hard. While previous quizzes often rewarded specific, in-depth knowledge on certain games, this quiz is much more focused on knowing a wide range of video game music to succeed.

You also might notice that some of the melody numbers have an asterisk (*) next to them. This signifies that there are melody pick-up notes at the end of the last measure that I've omitted.

Difficulty looks something like this:

I'll reiterate that Luigi, Yoshi, and Captain Toad games all count as Mario, while Wario and Donkey Kong games do not, because at least one of these cases does indeed show up on this quiz.

This is, of course, the last round to use your hints! You're not obligated to use them, but they do help! And you can use multiple hints on the same quiz, so go nuts if you want.

Hints Remaining
Dekkadeci: 1
Dudeman: 3
InsigTurtle: 1
Latios212: 3
LeviR.star: 2
Maelstrom: 3
NocturneOfShadow: 3
Static: 2
ThatHiddenCharacter: 1
Trasdegi: 3
WaluigiTime64: 2
Yug_Guy: 3
[close]

The Hint System
Here is where things might get a little convoluted. Each of you are all going to have three hints over my next four quizzes. You can message me with a request for a hint on a specific melody if you know you've heard but you don't know where from.

The catch? I post the hint publicly in the thread for everyone to see. Be assured, however, that the person who requested the hint will remain anonymous until the end of the round.

Hints will be larger for the Hard melodies and smaller for the Easy melodies since, well, the Hard melodies are obviously harder. I would advise you to list any information about the song that you think you already know so I can avoid giving you information that overlaps that isn't useful to you.

You can use multiple hints on a single quiz if you wish. You can also choose not to use all of your hints, or any at all. You cannot, however, use multiple hints on the same melody or request a hint for a melody that someone else requested a hint for.

Finally, as with the last two times, there are no games on this quiz that were on Round C. This means that this quiz does not include any of the following games:

  • [NDS] New Super Mario Bros.
  • [NDS] Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time

IMPORTANT NOTICE #2: One final thing. When you submit your guesses, I request that you also tell me your choice of either RED or BLUE. Don't ask what this is for, because I won't give you a straight answer. If you don't include this in your submission, I will nag you until you do.

Now. Get out there and WRECK this quiz. (Or, if you're not Dudeman, get wrecked by the quiz, I guess.)

...OK, fine, I know one of the hard songs now.

UPDATE:

Five people have their guesses in. Guesses are all over the place. The results that have come in are, well... quite frankly, nowhere near what I was expecting. The scoreboard is below:

Scoreboard (Update #1)
Black = 0 people
Red = 1-2 people
Green = 3-4 people
Blue = 5-6 people
Purple = 7+ people

1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  |  9  10  11  12  13  14  15  16  |  17  18  19  20  21  22  23  24  25
[close]

One of these five participants did get a 3/3 in one series, for the record.

Secondly, a hint was requested for #23. You can find it below:

Requested Hints (1) - #23
  • #23: From one of the four main series. The game was released before the year 2000. I'm not giving any more information in fear of giving it away, because this melody is hella hard to come up with a hint for and I was really hoping nobody was going to request a hint for this one BUT JUST AS MY LUCK WOULD HAVE IT IT'S THE FIRST ONE. Oh well.

FINE, YOU WANT MORE? TAKE MORE. Although I doubt it matters because the chances of anyone at all getting this one are rather slim, let alone the person who requested the hint

Requested Hints (1) - #23 (UPDATED)
  • #23: From one of the four main series. The game was released before the year 2000. This game has been used once and only once before in a melody quiz, and nobody got it. (I was not the one who used it.) Also, if you still don't think this is enough, then take the time to think about why I might be having trouble giving hints about this melody/game.

Oh uh also eight people have submitted guesses now so I guess I should do another update:

Here are the answers to my latest quiz:

#1
"Staff Roll"/"Milky Way Wishes Credits"/"Milky Way Wishes Ending", from Kirby Super Star
Timestamp: 0:22

The Kirby Super Star Ultra version (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sSIGTqZWWRY) was sadly rejected due to being in G flat major instead.

The KSSU version also plays in the "Meta Knightmare Ultra" credits, FWIW.

I've always thought this melody sounds like the children's folk song "Little Bunny Foo Foo" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a84IowoW00w). Perhaps some of the secret to the quality of Kirby series music is that it is reminiscent of folk songs at times...

I'm really surprised nobody got this correct--I thought 4 bars were distinctive enough.

#2
"Fighting to the End", from Bravely Default, used as the regular boss theme
Timestamp: 1:35

This song is back from one of my previous quizzes!

I've always thought this melody sounds like baroque music. I'm not used to hearing sudden baroque sections in video game music, but eh.

where is Maelstrom dagnabbit I'm sure he'd get this correct

#3
"Rainbow Road", from Mario Kart: Double Dash!!, used as a racetrack theme
Timestamp: 0:13

Yup, this song's back from a previous quiz!

We hadn't used this melody yet, and I think it's one of the most distinctive ones in the MKDD Rainbow Road theme that isn't borrowed from Mario Kart 64.

#4
"Fighting with All of Our Might (Guest Director Boss Battle)", from Shovel Knight, used as a mini-boss/side boss theme
Timestamp: 1:02

This is one of the more popular Shovel Knight songs, and not only has it spawned a lot of unofficial remixes, it's been slathered all over the OST of the latest Shovel Knight expansion, Specter of Torment.

Fun fact: Jake "virt" Kaufman originally composed (some version of) this in a "Kwakfest" session, where he had to compose a complete MIDI song in 60 minutes or less. Apparently, it was supposed to sound like a Saturday morning cartoon theme. Not originally being composed for the Shovel Knight series, this is almost always applied to characters who weren't originally created for the Shovel Knight series (such as Reize Seatlan).

Maybe I should have given out that "HYPER CAMELOT" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IL_gP-73FeI) hint for it...I'm surprised how few of you got this correct.

#5
"Unfounded Revenge", from Mother 3
Timestamp: 0:05

Yup, this song came back from a previous quiz!

This song is part of a remix in Super Smash Bros. Brawl (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u5cR3MRXtAI).

I purposefully picked this melody because it hadn't been used in previous quizzes and it also infamously sounds like the 3rd movement of Dmitri Shostakovich's Symphony No. 6 in B minor, Op. 54 (https://youtu.be/zPL1U_cKlt0?t=20m12s). Yup, VGM themes that sound like classical or baroque music but aren't are a sub-theme of this quiz!

Shostakovich's music hasn't hit the public domain yet (to my chagrin, too), so I don't know how HAL Laboratory got away with this.

"Maiden's Capriccio ~ Dream Battle", from Touhou Eiyashou ~ Imperishable Night, used as Reimu's boss theme
Timestamp: 0:36

Sadly, the version of this melody in the Touhou Gensoukyou ~ Lotus Land Story version of this song, "Maiden's Capriccio" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IdAyCWh0238), is always in the wrong key, so I had to mark it as incorrect.

Oh well, this is the most well-known of Reimu's boss themes...isn't it?

I was surprised we hadn't used this theme yet, so I put it in this quiz.

"Waluigi Stadium & Wario Colosseum", from Mario Kart: Double Dash!!, used as a racetrack theme
Timestamp: 0:05

This song's back from a previous quiz!

Bizarrely, Mario Kart Arcade GP 2 also has a course called "Waluigi Stadium", and this is its theme (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7lVGDuCqODg)...which doesn't contain this melody.

This is one of my favourite MKDD songs, and maybe it's one of WaluigiTime64's favourites, too. After all, he did use it in one of his previous quizzes....

#8
"Pure Odio", from Live A Live, used as the theme for the last stage of the final boss
Timestamp: 1:00

This melody sounds a lot like the beginning of a typical fugue, which is why I picked it. It might be a bit out of place in this final boss theme, but then the theme of that boss's first stage (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yiAiKWCR0TE) uses a slight variant of this melody in another key...

"Cackletta's Theme", from Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga

If you think the beginning of this melody sounds like the fugue in Bach's Prelude and Fugue in C minor, BWV 847 (https://youtu.be/1GXHjxvSi24?t=1m18s) from The Well-Tempered Clavier, you're correct!

This song proceeds in a rather fugal manner afterwards, too.

Never underestimate the influence that baroque music has on modern music.

#10
"Credits"/"Credits Theme"/"Ending Staff Roll", from Metroid Prime
Timestamp: 2:46

I accepted this song as an answer in a previous quiz of mine, so it counts as a recycled song.

Yeah, I know, picking the very ending of this credits theme--the one portion that didn't appear in a Super Smash Bros. game (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tAjpuctFvJY)--is evil, but if you guys could get away with the ending of that Dark Pit (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QG77HTdreh0) theme in a quiz, I figured I could get away with this, too.

Occasionally, I try riffing on that Am-Bb-Am-Eb chord progression.

"Battle with Gruntilda"/"Final Battle", from Banjo-Kazooie, used as Gruntilda's final boss theme
Timestamp: 1:49

Yes, I used this song in a previous quiz.

Seriously, this final boss theme lasts nearly 3 minutes before it loops?!? And it's nowhere near as neatly sectional as Bravely Default music...

I thought this melody has one of the most striking chord progressions in the entire song (Em-Em-Em-Bb), so I picked it. I dunno why Grant Kirkhope likes chord progressions like this one, but it's a nice change from regular chord progressions.

"The Legendary Air Ride Machine"/"Legendary Air Ride Machine", from Kirby Air Ride
Timestamp: 0:28

I've always thought that the 6th and 7th bars of this melody (counting the pickup measure as the 1st bar) sound an awful lot like John Philip Sousa's famous march, "The Stars and Stripes Forever" (https://youtu.be/RKRJe23Zths?t=1m34s). Occasionally, I swap between "The Legendary Air Ride Machine" and "The Stars and Stripes Forever" whenever I hit that bar as I hum.

"Lunar Clock ~ Luna Dial", from Touhou Koumakyou ~ the Embodiment of Scarlet Devil, used as Sakuya Izayoi's boss theme
Timestamp: 0:39

If you've ever listened to COOL&CREATE's "Night of Nights" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vS_a8Edde8k), you might be familiar with this melody, as a remix of it plays in the very beginning of that piece. Sadly, "Night of Nights" is pretty much always promoted as a remix of only "Flowering Night" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5wFRIWFraWQ), so you may have missed that reference.

"C-R-O-W-N-E-D", from Kirby's Return to Dream Land, used as the theme for the second stage of the final boss
Timestamp: 0:15

Versions of this song have ended up in several Kirby games lately, to the point where I think it's a bit overused...but it's a good one, nonetheless.

People say this melody is a remix of Nightmare's theme (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wrnuxKa2Q7c), but the closest this is to that theme is an inversion of it. ...And even then, it isn't a precise inversion.

"The Savior of Dream Land", by Juan "Sixto Sounds" Medrano
Timestamp: 0:00

This song is a remix of "Gladiator Kirby"/"Coliseum Battle" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vlZokS21Bek) (the Arena theme) from Kirby Super Star. I actually found this song first and figured that the Arena theme must be good if this song is that stellar.

I think Sixto Sounds also noticed that the Arena theme sounds like bullfighting music--the OCRemix page for this song (http://ocremix.org/remix/OCR02625) acknowledges a flamenco influence.

"Pride of the White Knight", by 5/4TAKEPOD

This song is a remix of "Battle on the Bridge" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M8RlLfTuK9Y) from Final Fantasy Tactics. IMO, it's better than that actual VGM theme. Yeah, I also found this remix first.

"Battle on the Bridge"'s version of this melody is sorta hard to make out, anyway, and it's definitely more dissonant.

After mastersuperfan put SiIvaGunner in a quiz, I thought I could try putting unofficial video game remixes into quizzes...maybe I need to pick remixes that are a lot more well-known.

For the record, it seems like #1 on my quiz isn't nearly as iconic as I thought. Whoops. I've had a couple people tell me that #2 should've been put at #1's spot instead, but... oh, well.

The Easy section's looking better than I expected, actually. I'm definitely liking this 13 Miscellaneous structure over what I did with Rounds A-C so far. I'm quite confused about the fact that nobody's recognized #16 so far, but I did admittedly pick a somewhat difficult part of the song (#15 and #16 are definitely the trickiest ones in the Medium section).

Anyways, hints have been requested for #6 and #10, and you can find them below. (Given that this is the last round, I'm sure we'll be seeing even more hints pop up soon...)

Requested Hints (3) - #6, #10, #23
  • #6: From one of the four main series. 8-bit track. Has received numerous remixes in later games of the series.
  • #10: From one of the four main series. Heard sometime during the second half of the game (main game only, not including extra modes/bonus levels/postgame content). Played by a rock guitar.
  • #23: From one of the four main series. The game was released before the year 2000. This game has been used once and only once before in a melody quiz, and nobody got it.

Requested Hints (6) - #6, #9, #10, #20, #21, #23
  • #6: From one of the four main series. 8-bit track. Has received numerous remixes in later games of the series.
  • #9: From one of the four main series. Nintendo DS game. The track is very similar to other songs in different games in the same series; they're most likely based off one another.
  • #10: From one of the four main series. Heard sometime during the second half of the game (main game only, not including extra modes/bonus levels/postgame content). Played by a rock guitar.
  • #20: Not from one of the four main series. Nintendo 3DS game. Boss battle theme that is specific to one boss only.

Three more hints have been requested, for, of all things, #1, #2, and #25:

Requested Hints (9) - #1, #2, #6, #9, #10, #20, #21, #23, #25
  • #1: From one of the four main series. Played by a woodwind instrument that sounds like a recorder (I happen to know of a cover that plays the melody with a recorder). It's iconic enough to have received remixes in two other games within the same main series; however, it hasn't appeared in any Smash Bros. game, while multiple other songs from the same game have.
  • #2: Not from one of the four main series. Not from the first game in its series, yet still iconic. Heard sometime during the first half of the game (main game only, not including extra modes/bonus levels/postgame content).
  • #6: From one of the four main series. 8-bit track. Has received numerous remixes in later games of the series.
  • #9: From one of the four main series. Nintendo DS game. The track is very similar to other songs in different games in the same series; they're most likely based off one another.
  • #10: From one of the four main series. Heard sometime during the second half of the game (main game only, not including extra modes/bonus levels/postgame content). Played by a rock guitar.
  • #20: Not from one of the four main series. Nintendo 3DS game. Boss battle theme that is specific to one boss only.
  • #21: From one of the four main series. Boss battle theme that plays for multiple bosses, with slight variations for each boss. Most of the melody is electronic synth.
  • #23: From one of the four main series. The game was released before the year 2000. This game has been used once and only once before in a melody quiz, and nobody got it. (I was not the one who used it.) Also, if you still don't think this is enough, then take the time to think about why I might be having trouble giving hints about this melody/game.
  • #25: Not from one of the four main series. Originally released for PC and then later on a Nintendo console. The last two measures are played by a flute (I honestly don't know what the heck is playing the rest).

Sorry for the many many consecutive posts, but the hint spam continues! First of all, though, scoreboard update! 12 players have submitted now. We might get another competitor, but there's a good chance this is where the participation caps out, so this will probably be the last update. (Some people are still scrambling to follow up on their hints, though, while I'm sitting back here and laughing at their futile efforts...)

Scoreboard (Update #4)
Black = 0 people
Red = 1-2 people
Green = 3-4 people
Blue = 5-6 people
Purple = 7+ people

1  2  3  4  5  6  7  8  |  9  10  11  12  13  14  15  16  |  17  18  19  20  21  22  23  24  25

  • #5 Not from one of the four main series. Iconic 8-bit track, and definitely the most well-known theme from the game--it's the music that is primarily heard during gameplay. Has also gained popularity through prominent Smash Bros. remixes.
  • #6: From one of the four main series. 8-bit track. Has received numerous remixes in later games of the series.
  • #9: From one of the four main series. Nintendo DS game. The track is very similar to other songs in different games in the same series; they're most likely based off one another.

  • #12: From one of the four main series. Plays in a level/area that is reached sometime around the halfway point of the game (main game only, not including extra modes/bonus levels/postgame content). This was the only section of the track that I could feasibly transcribe while still expecting others to recognize it.
  • #20: Not from one of the four main series. Nintendo 3DS game. Boss battle theme that is specific to one boss only.

So. This will probably be my last melody quiz (for a while, at least) due to business and busyness. So there's a catch this time. The last melody, you'll have to figure out with only the first note, which might or might not be wrong. Sound stupid? Yeah, it is. But perfectly doable. Also, I'd advise you to send in guesses as soon as you get them. This time, everyone gets one hint that'll be shared with everyone so everyone can be happy together with everyone. Hints will be posted on the oh-so-lovable scoreboard, along with an update here.

Hints for #18 so it isn't impossible right now. Don't overthink it, it's just what it says on the package:
- The first note might or might not be correct
- The key signature and time signature might not be correct
- There might be hints hidden throughout the previous melodies
- To help with getting 18, some melodies might be repeated from previous quizzes

Uh oh. I tried opening the file on my phone, and it worked. I don't know why it'd be incompatible on your side...

Anyways, requested hints!
Spoiler
5 - What time in the game does this play? At high noon Well, not in a level itself. You probably only hear the first part most of the time. The game's on a regular console!   
6 - Hmph. Glad you asked. This track has an electric guitar in it, giving it an edgy vibe at times. The game's on a handheld console!
7 - This game is... a bit old, but not old enough to be an artifact or anything. This music is pretty dry. The game's on a handheld console!

Answers and Results!

The moment you've all been waiting for. We had 12 participants participate in Round D, 9 of which also participated in Rounds A through C. (Levi declined to participate this round due to being busy, so the total results for all 100 melodies will now only include the other 9 regular competitors.)

Without further ado, the answers to the final part of the four-part round!

*Note*: I was planning to get the cumulative results for all four rounds today, but since there's a lot of data to go through and it's late over here, I'm going to be putting that off until tomorrow. You can probably figure out the overall standings yourself if you so desire, but the final post will include statistics such as overall scores and rankings for each difficulty section and for each game series, along with congratulations, honorable mentions, and my final thoughts, so stay tuned.

The Theme
So yeah, there was a theme in this quiz. Sort of. It was probably far more obvious if you looked at the PDF, although funnily enough none of the participants who noticed the theme had looked at the PDF beforehand...

# of players helped by hint: 1

So it turns out that the title theme is actually one of the harder tracks to recognize from this game. Who would've thought.

I guess maybe it's because of the long ambient intro, but I figured it was iconic nonetheless. Still, a good number of people recognized it. (And a good number of people were also driven insane...)

  • [WiiU] Super Smash Bros. for Wii U ("Plaza / Title (Animal Crossing: City Folk / Wild World)") (https://youtu.be/fa_-uQUtTZc?t=44s)

I was curious to see if this was as well-known as the original Animal Crossing's main theme. Thanks to Brawl, it looks like the answer is a resounding yes. (Since a lot of people were able to recognize this as Animal Crossing but couldn't pinpoint the exact source, I was lenient and accepted the Brawl remix of this as well.)

Fun fact: instead of the Mint Leaf, this item was originally the Sweet Potato in the Japanese version. Why they changed it, I have no idea.

With the whole "green" theme I had going on here, I was actually really tempted to use Green Greens as #1, but that would've been far too obvious for my liking. Mint leaves are green, anyway. (Although, sweet potatoes aren't...)

Sonic isn't the most popular franchise here on NSM, so this might've been a tricky one to top off the Easy section, especially considering that I picked the quiet melody in the middle. With how iconic it is, though, it just didn't feel right to put it in the Medium section. (Besides, my Medium section was already full, anyways...)

Squeak Squad isn't the most well-known of Kirby games, so even though it was a first level theme that sounded very much like Kirby I still thought it might be a little tricky.

Apparently not.

A pretty badass battle themes that really comes out of nowhere, especially considering what he was like in the original RSE. With its 3.25 million views on YouTube, I thought it wouldn't be too hard for most good Pokémon fans to recognize. I'll admit that I'm not actually not a huge fan of this battle theme, largely in part because I really wish the loop was longer than a measly 35 or so seconds...

I haven't seen Minish Cap used a single time in any of these quizzes, which is surprising, so I picked what I felt was one of the more memorable themes as a test. Looks like we've got quite a few people who've played it.

For some reason a surprisingly high number of participants singled this one out as being familiar. Perhaps this game is more popular than I thought. Or maybe it just sounds similar to a lot of other songs? As Latios pointed out, the rhythm is surprisingly similar to the same part of Onett that I used for #2...

Pikmin 2 dungeon music is actually randomly generated, but these phrases here (or very similar ones) continuously keep popping up, from what I've heard in gameplay videos, so it still wasn't too hard for our Pikmin 2 fans to recognize--even if it plays for nothing more than a single sublevel.

Proof that this game is dead, huh. Raids are a feature that got added a little over two months ago, so it looks like nobody's really touched the game since then. I sure haven't; I only know this one because it kept popping up in my sidebar a lot. I was hoping someone would recognize it the same way, like with Learn With Pokémon: Typing Adventure, but it looks like nobody did.

The bassline I picked may have been a little generic, but it's one of the parts that caught my attention the most, and the melodies afterward sound way too similar to main series battle themes.

Y'know, Snake Man Stage was supposed to be on this quiz, but then Wah went and used that. I was going to leave Mega Man out of this quiz entirely after that, but I felt a little bad for the only Mega Man representation in these 100 melodies being the most iconic one. So, of course, I delved deep into the series looking for a track to throw into the Hard section, and came out with this.

Maybe it's just me, but the part I transcribed reminds me of Super Mario Galaxy in a way...

It turns out that variations on this boss battle theme also play for the second (https://youtu.be/_p8vULN1qtE) and third (https://youtu.be/xPyQJzfg6J8) bosses, which I was actually not aware of before Dekka pointed it out in her submission. I suppose this is what happens when you only play the first world before getting bored... I tried to love it, but really, it was honestly a letdown after the greatness that was Canvas Curse. Music's pretty good, though.

For anyone who's frequently checked the My Nintendo rewards, I imagine you'll have seen discounts offered for this game multiple times. The question I wanted to test, though, was to see if anyone had actually bothered to play the game.

For the record, I haven't. But I've listened to the new music and it's not bad. Also, based on the comments section, it looks like this track was also used in SMG4, which I guess would be an alternative way to recognize this one. Nobody did, though.

This game didn't have great sales, nor is it very well-known at all, but I remember being hyped for it back when I more into Fire Emblem. Granted, while this is a crossover involving Fire Emblem, it's mostly Shin Megami Tensei gameplay. I've had my eye on this game for a long time but haven't bothered to pick it up yet, but I've listened to some of the music and it is just amazing.

# of players helped by hint: 0

And now, I bring the 100-melody round to a close with a track from one of the most obscure games ever to be used in a melody quiz: Tadpole Treble, a small indie gem released on PC and later the Wii U, made by the creators of the webcomic Brawl in the Family (which is totally worth checking out, by the way). I know I'm not the only BitF fan on here, so I was hoping for a guess, but it was a bit of a stretch.

It's actually a really great game (90 on Metacritic for the PC version), and it's not too long or pricey, so I definitely recommend anyone with a free hour or two to check it out. The music is fantastic, too.

For the record, my older sister still plays Pokemon Go, and I saw her play it today while we're on the same trip together. She even likes participating in raid battles! Unfortunately, she plays it with the sound off.

By the way... did you notice?
You know how I kept saying that each round had no melodies from games that were on the prior round?

Well, guess what? Without telling you, I'd taken it a step further. The whole truth is that no single game appeared in twice in any of these 100 melodies. This means that in these four rounds, 100 different games were represented, for the purpose of gauging scores over as wide a variety of games as possible.

You performed admirably in the first two rounds, maintaining a consistent 2nd place ranking. Unfortunately, you might have been a little starved of Mario Kart in the last two rounds, since I couldn't overdo it... but in the end, you still came out strong with a solid 3rd place finish, only barely below the 2nd place score. Congratulations, Mario music master. You could say my hat is off to you.

You might not have seemed like the biggest threat starting out, especially with the Galaxy and Galaxy 2 tracks in the first round, but with each round you've risen steadily in both score and rank and proven yourself to be a competent force among melody quiz participants. And for your extensive knowledge of video game music that both encompasses and goes beyond popular Nintendo series, I applaud you.

You are the melody quiz CHAMPION! Except for me, of course

I think we all expected this from the moment I posted the first round, but to see you perform so spectacularly on these quizzes, having recognized nearly half the melodies in these four rounds, even when I know some pretty dang obscure stuff... you certainly have not disappointed me. I don't know how you do it, but your experience with video game music must have certainly been a rich and fulfilling one.

Congratulations to you, Dudeman, for being the ultimate victor of this four-part round.

YOU GOT:

And with that, my final thoughts...
Well, it's been quite a ride, hasn't it?

I'm not actually sure to say now that's over now, huh. So I guess you'll just see me ramble on a bit before I finally close the book on this four-part competition.

I'm not sure what inspired me to do this in the first place, really. I hardly thought the whole "four-part round" thing would take off at all, considering that Dudeman would be the obvious winner from the start.

But it seems, maybe, that it ended up generating more hype then I thought it could. And in the end, I think a lot of interesting moments and tidbits really did result from having a 100-melody quiz with 100 different games.

Regardless, I want to thank the nine of you sincerely for having participated in my rounds for a long time now, even though some of you have been busy, and even though some of you struggle to get even a few melodies. I know that all of you are acquainted with a wide and unique variety of games and soundtracks that really might not be reflected in the scores of these quizzes--after all, this was mostly big Nintendo franchise music.

And trust me, the future quizzes you see from me will be much more lenient--most particularly with fewer Hard melodies, which I think perhaps took up too many of these melodies when I wasn't expecting many, or any participants to get it in the first place.

So after all this, what's next?

...Well. Now that my numbering has been all thrown off, I figure I might as well keep it that way--especially considering what I've got planned in store for next time. The next round you'll see is the MSF Special Round 1... and special it most certainly is. So stay tuned, folks.

And with that... the 100-melody round has come to a close.

Woo, 6th! That's not too bad.

On a more serious note, I really enjoyed this and even though you said you won't do this again, I definitely wouldn't be against it. Congratulations to all the participants! Let's keep making quizzes and trying out new tests. I already have an evil idea for what I'll do for my next quiz after the one I'll be posting tomorrow. Oh, and also a huge thanks to Levi for creating this wonderful game that has blossomed so much since it started only a few months ago.

I'm rarely ever that serious (besides bad emotion serious), I need to get back to weird mode.

This has been quite a ride, MSF. As good as it feels to be the champion, I know that in reality there's no way I'd be any higher than second if you had been participating. The real champion is you.

And now Waluigi will actually have to be second place for second place from here on out.

I still don't get why we had to pick Red vs. Blue in MSF's Round D.

For the record, I picked Blue.

Current list of hints, since a new one was requested!

Spoiler
2 - Is this the real life? Is this just fantasy? It's a bird! It's a plane! It's 7 GRAND DAD. The game's on a handheld console!
3 - Instead of a hint, I'm going on an adventure. Probably down to the valley where they do lots of farming. Bye. The game's on a regular console!
5 - What time in the game does this play? At high noon Well, not in a level itself. You probably only hear the first part most of the time. The game's on a regular console!   
6 - Hmph. Glad you asked. This track has an electric guitar in it, giving it an edgy vibe at times. The game's on a handheld console!
7 - This game is... a bit old, but not old enough to be an artifact or anything. This music is pretty dry. The game's on a handheld console!
9 - Knock knock! Turn off the light, it's time for you to go. Any more hints would make this too obvious. The game's on a regular console!

And now it's time for my quiz again! Don't worry, this one may be pretty easy, but I have a sinister idea for my next one, since everyone else has made at least one "How to Get People to Hate Me" Quiz. But anyway, here's (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/2nex10s9xcph9ny/AADeWJrIUFFgJf76kipxzLd_a?dl=0) the quiz. Good luck!

Now that you know the answers, you can see that the hints are... a bit obvious now!
So, congrats to [insert name here] for winning with a score of [insert score here]!

And the 18th melody... was it unfair? Well, that's why the hints were there. And if you gave an alternate title for melodies 1-13, I would tell you the one I wanted. And nobody even requested a hint for it! Oh well, that's it for today! See ya... maybe next year or something!

In the meantime, I thought the hint for #2 implied it was a Final Fantasy song (just like I was suspecting), and the hint for #3 implied it was a Zelda or even Harvest Moon/Story of Seasons song.

...Yeah, I requested the hint for #2 and proceeded to go on the entirely wrong track. I was listening to a whole bunch of Final Fantasy preludes....
Title: Re: The NSM Triweekly Guess-That-Melody Quiz!
Post by: Trasdegi on September 03, 2017, 11:01:14 PM
Alright, time for my first guess-that-melody quiz! This quiz is 10 melodies long, who are sorted randomly, because I really have no idea when it comes to judging difficulty, and who doesn't follow any theme, except than they all come from games I've played.

[MID] (http://bit.ly/2etaCFv)[MUS] (http://bit.ly/2vB5mu9)[PDF] (http://bit.ly/2iQX7Ek)[MSCZ] (http://bit.ly/2wsS4Pa)[Dropbox Folder] (http://bit.ly/2vU9e4V)

Because I'm lazy, I'll just quote dekka:
Quote from: Dekkadeci on August 26, 2017, 12:54:55 PMThe MUS is readable in Finale, including Finale Notepad. The MSCZ is readable in Musescore. All other files are based on the original MSCZ, not the MUS--this explains why the PDF doesn't look like the MUS.
The MUS may display and/or play back bugged. The MSCZ, MIDI, and PDF shouldn't.

You will have until Wednessday, September 6, at 9:00 P.M. aka Thursday, 5:00 A.M. forum default time to PM me your guesses.

Everyone (1 per person max.) can ask a hint about a song, but I will only give 5 hints in total. You can use a hint to ask me to release general information about the quiz , too, such as how many series are represented, what are the oldest and newest melodies, when were they released...

I will provide a scoreboard with the melodies ranked from most-guessed to less-guessed. Obviously, I can't provide it now.

Good luck everyone!

[.MID] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B6i3fGvW_38VVTRFN0pZNjEzX28) [.MUS] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B6i3fGvW_38VdkRpR2RlSjZIbjQ) [.MUSX] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B6i3fGvW_38VVHRhREZaLXRQdWs) [.PDF] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B6i3fGvW_38VN3FHazVVd09pakE)

I was originally going to post my 8th quiz, but I felt like my 9th one was easier, so you're welcome I guess. Now, there is a catch: there are no melodies in this quiz... You'll see what I mean once you open it.

But don't worry too much because this quiz is still pretty easy and I made sure to choose lots of recognizable tunes. Good luck!

To help out some people, I've prepared a series of (optional) hints:

Hints
  • Of the 20 melodies, 17 of them are from Nintendo games.
  • There are 4 Mario melodies, 4 Zelda melodies, and 4 EDIT: 3 Kirby melodies. The other Nintendo games featured in the quiz are still relatively famous, but they don't belong in these aforementioned series.
  • For each of the 3 Nintendo series I listed, only the Mario series has a song from a spinoff title (1 song).
  • There are 3 NES melodies, 7 SNES melodies, 2 N64 melodies, 3 GCN melodies, 1 Wii melody, 1 Wii U melody, 3 melodies from other platforms.

What a nice credits theme. If you haven't already, go listen to it. Maybe more people would've found this if I didn't pick the least memorable part. This part is in Partner's themes too, and MSF found it this way.

Quote from: mastersuperfanlooked through a bunch of the minor PSMD tracks I don't know and haven't found it
although considering it's a remix on the motif it's probably the credits theme, now that I think about it
hmmm
wow it is
I should've checked that a long time ago

Eh, it's practically Monday. As my first time hosting in a while, I tried to design it to be a little easier. No hints, though!

Here ya go, my 4th quiz, 4 files of 4x4 melodies in 4/4 with 4 measures each.

Post by: WaluigiTime64 on September 11, 2017, 03:48:45 AM
So that's all done. My completely normal 8th quiz is now closed. Let's see how our 6 contestants did. First up: the melodies.

#1
Beloved Tomboyish Girl - Touhou 12.3: Unthinkable Natural Law:

To start off this ordinary quiz I put up part of a song I figured even dedicated Touhou fans might miss. Just because. And it worked too. No one got this one.
[close]

#2
Special World - Super Mario World:

Fun but completely irrelevant fact: Special World is the 9th world in Super Mario World, provided you include the Bridge Areas and Chocolate Island as their own worlds. Naturally this was guessed by almost all participants. Only one missed it.
[close]

#3
Cauldron Keep - Banjo-Tooie:

This one is probably tricky even for Banjo fans. This 9th world has hardly anything in it. It just has a mediocre puzzle, the final of the recurring mid-boss fights, the quiz show, the credits, important plot points, the final battle, and the ending. Not much. Too bad no one got it.
[close]

#4
Piranha Plant Pipeway - Mario Kart 7:

Thanks to arcade games, Mario Kart "7" is actually the 9th Mario Kart. Except we don't like to think about the arcade games so they don't count. 2 people got this one.
[close]

#5
Overdrive Scramble (Special Stage) - Mega Man 9:

Quote from: mastersuperfanbrb listening to Mega Man 9 music
Quote from: Maelstromis 5 from mega man 9

Yes, the forgotten 9th robot master from Mega Man 9 is the source material for my current Discord profile picture, although that's not important in the slightest. 1 person got this one, and it wasn't either of the people quoted above.

#6
Remix 9 - Rhythm Heaven:

This is pretty funky. That's pretty much the only reason I picked this one. 1 person got this one.
[close]

#7
Morphogenetic Sorrow - 9 Hours, 9 Persons, 9 Doors:

I know nothing about this game. I just noticed it appearing here and there on NSM a while ago and so I checked for what seemed like the most popular song and snagged something from there. 1 person got it though.
[close]

#8
Main Theme - Mario Party 9:

I just randomly pick Mario Party music lol. If I can't pick from MP2 I may as well do whatever I want. Sadly no one got this anyway.
[close]

#9
Adventure of the Lovestruck Tomboy - Touhou 9: Phantasmagoria of Flower View:

Like, Static's sheet just got on the site in an update that half-focused on it. I figured someone would get it like that, and one person did. In total though, 3 people got this one.
[close]


And the winner is...
mastersuperfan!
with a score of 4/9. Coolies.
i swear he's winning more and more of my quizzes

Super underrated ending theme. dammitKudos to MSF for accidentally stumbling upon this one, and Wah for actually knowing it.

Well, at least I was correct in my (unposted) assumption that this was, in fact a Mario credits theme. I'm happy that somehow, I knew that much.

It's past midnight on Sept. 16 where I am, so here's my eighth Guess-The-Song Quiz:
[PDF] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZa1EzX3dDUkxsRTg) | [MIDI] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZOGNTbHVXVWo2MWs) | [MUS] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZWTc2aGtXMmFIMjA) | [MSCZ] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZMTlzeURfcW1RaXc)

The MUS is readable in Finale, including Finale Notepad. The MSCZ is readable in Musescore. All other files are based on the original MSCZ, not the MUS--this explains why the PDF doesn't look like the MUS.
The MUS may display and/or play back bugged. The MSCZ, MIDI, and PDF shouldn't.
With that being said, #11 contains a fall that none of the files play back.

This quiz shouldn't be too difficult, but don't feel too bad if you only get one or two! PM away!

You can PM answers to me until Monday, Sept. 18 at 5:00 PM MDT (a.k.a. Tuesday, Sept. 19 12:00 AM forum default time). I will not count any submissions made after that time, as I'll be too busy tallying results.
Results will be posted shortly afterwards.

Some guidelines for answering, how the melodies are transcribed, and what counts as a correct answer--oh yeah, and some hints right off the bat:
Title: Re: The NSM Triweekly Guess-That-Melody Quiz!

Somewhere over the rainbow, it is Monday...

MSF ROUND E (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/nqpj4obl8bdev3a/AABEQUB2UN3QYaejg9HJiCRta?dl=0)  (because my numbering got all screwed up, so just roll with it, though I'm pretty sure this is supposed to be my ninth quiz)

Now, fair warning: this is a long and hard quiz. There's a huge variety of melodies here, and not a single one of them is popular or obvious. In essence, this is a quiz with no easy melodies--but most of the melodies are nowhere close to impossible, so everyone should be able to get at least a few. In short, this is a quiz about anything and everything. (Mostly everything... there were some series I wanted to include but didn't. Oh well.)

The series breakdown is as follows:
Yep, this quiz is a whopping ƎƎ melodies long--and with this plethora of games and songs, there should be at least a little bit for everyone in here. Now, some other stuff is below:

What does (E4) mean?
As this quiz is rather tricky, I've taken the liberty of implementing a bit of a hint in this quiz. Perhaps some of you might remember this quote by our friendly little neighborhood turtle?

Quote from: InsigTurtle on May 08, 2017, 04:54:12 PMWhat I've usually done, was to do equal proportions of Pokémon, Kirby, Mario, and Zelda, with some occasional extra tidbits thrown in, since those are the Elite 4 of Nintendo franchises. After all, this *is* NinSheetMusic, so it can't be unreasonable to include Nintendo melodies, right?

Now, as this is called Round E, I figured it was only fitting that I label all melodies from Mario/Kirby/Pokémon/Zelda with E4, an abbreviation of Elite 4. In other words, you now know exactly which melodies are and aren't from one of those four main series, to make this quiz just a liiittle bit more manageable for you all.
[close]

The Revised Scoreboard
As this quiz is more difficult than ones you've previously seen, I'm making a (most likely temporary) change to the scoreboard this round, where you will now know exactly how many people know each melody--because if I was still using the original version then you'd mostly see a random mix of red and green, and that probably wouldn't be too interesting.

Black = 0 people
Red = 1 person
Orange = 2 people
Yellow = 3 people
Green = 4 people
Blue = 5 people
Purple = 6 people
Pink = 7+ people (lol nothing will make it here)

I think I fucked up

I tried to make it decently hard and then it ended up mostly impossible

Okay, four people have submitted guesses so far. More than four people have looked at the whole quiz. There is currently a two-way tie for first.

Black = 0 people
Red = 1 person
Orange = 2 people
Yellow = 3 people

And now, because I think people are in dire need of some hints, I will be posting this:

CONSOLE COUNT
Below is a tally of the number of games on each console in this quiz. Games will only be listed for the console they were first released for, even if they were remade on or ported to another console later. If a game was initially released on multiple consoles at the same time, it will only be listed as MUL. (Note: The following console count does not include the unscored preview of Special Round 1.)

NES - 3
SNES - 4
N64 - 1
GCN - 2
NDS - 6
Wii - 5

Stay tuned; an extended/hint quiz version will probably be coming tomorrow or Wednesday (not sure if I'll get around to it tomorrow, so if I have to finish it Wednesday I'll leave my round open Thursday), like I did in my first quiz. They'll count for half a point each if you choose to use it and get more.

Eight people have submitted guesses (or just plain ol' singular guess) now, and 18 out of 33 melodies have been correctly guessed. Among the eight participants who actually recognized anything, the average score is a (oof) 3.25.

Scoreboard Update #2
Black = 0 people

As I customarily give, here are the top scores on each of the E4 series, not including the preview of Special Round 1 (and also not including Miscellaneous because that's like most of the quiz):
Of these four main series, one has been guessed out completely, two have had two out of three guessed, and one has had only one out of three guessed (lol, I wonder which one that is).

And now for some assorted thoughts (with some small hints) on the ones nobody has guessed:

Random Unguessed Melody Comments
  • #6: There are at least two people who should definitely know this one. It's a game that's been used in quizzes multiple times before, too. It's a little tricky, but I'm rather surprised nobody has it... The next four measures are the exact same as the four I've transcribed.
  • #7: (E4) Maybe one of the more difficult ones in here, but it's bothering some people. The melody I transcribed loops twice, but the underlying chords are different the second time.
  • #8: Iconic, or so I thought. I don't think anyone here has played the game it was originally from, though (I haven't).
  • #10: This game has never been used in a quiz before, but I know a few people who have played it. Wish they knew it, but it's not extremely surprising that they missed it (especially compared to other melodies...). The melody loops a second time with slight variations.
  • #12: (E4) Has appeared in more than one game in the same series. Was hoping people could get it off other games, if not the original. Maybe not. The melody cuts off after the part I transcribed.
  • #15: (E4) I thought this one should've been guessed a long time ago, but it might be the short length screwing people over. The next four measures have the exact same rhythmic pattern, though the notes aren't the same.
  • #18: Nobody has this one? Color me surprised... If I of all people know this track I thought others would too. This game has been used numerous times in quizzes before... although, admittedly, it hasn't always been recognized.
  • #24: This game has been used in previous quizzes and multiple people have recognized the melody every time. Except now, of course >.>
  • #25: (E4) This is a track that you hear a lot during the game, but... whether or not people actually remember it appears to be a different story.
  • #26: Next four measures are the same. I guess this just isn't a very memorable track.
  • #27: Kind of an obscure/self-indulgent one, but I was hoping someone would get it. Probably not though :(
  • #28: Well-known game, obscure track. Not sure why I would know this over everyone else, though...
  • #30: O_O
  • #32: Self-indulgent one, and one of my favorite VGMs of all time. This was in fact originally slated to be in my very first melody quiz.
  • #33: See #18: "If I of all people know this track I thought others would too." Then again, it's not quite in-line with NSM's tastes, but... I don't know anything about the series either yet I've still heard of this track, sooo...
  • Preview of SR1: (E4) I would like to think that nobody's submitted a guess for this melody because they don't actually think they're supposed to submit a guess, because people should definitely know this one... Again, a game that has been used on quizzes multiple times before, and they've been guessed every time. Except now

Theme
The theme was songs that have been used previously and had gotten no guesses. And to make you feel even worse about yourself, I used the exact same sections that had been used. I also found out #7 had been used 3 times in the past, none of them ever getting guesses.

Winner(s)!
Diedman and msf tie with 15 points each! They got perfect scores! That hasn't happened since the beginning of this game being a thing!

So you know how I said there was going to be no hint system? I changed my mind.

THE HINT SYSTEM
Unlike my previous quizzes, you won't be able to ask for a single melody. Instead, you will pick five melodies that you haven't gotten correct yet, and I'll reply to you with the consoles of origin for those five games, in a randomized order. (See the earlier Console Count section for my rules on consoles of origin.)

Since this probably won't be enough to raise scores significantly, you'll still be seeing that easy version sometime later, where melodies will count for half-credit only.

"Choco Mountain"/"Choco Mountain & Battle Arenas (Block Fort & Double Deck)", from Mario Kart 64, used as a racetrack theme and a multiplayer battle stage theme

#2
"Necrofantasia", from Touhou Youyoumu ~ Perfect Cherry Blossom, used as Yukari's boss theme
Timestamp: 0:01

None of you got "Necrofantasia" the last time I put it in a Guess-That-Song Quiz, so this time, I picked its very first theme and hoped some of you would recognize it this time.

I mean, all those black MIDIs (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qo1IBXUYOgA) of it must make it famous or at least meme-tastic, right?

...Right?

...Well, at least someone recognized it this time....

#3
"Thundersnail", from Undertale, used as a minigame theme
Timestamp: 0:00

I thought the first 4 bars only would be too tricky, so I added the next 4 to this melody. At this point, I wasn't 100% sure which line was the melody, so I included both lines.

#4
"Theme of a Tragedic Revenge"/"Theme of a Tragic Revenge", from NiGHTS: Journey of Dreams, used as one of Reala's boss themes
Timestamp: 0:15

Actually, all of Reala's boss themes sound pretty good in general, IMO.

I thought this melody's chromatic mediant leanings were distinctive enough to remember, so I put this melody in this quiz. Besides, I've heard two different arrangers remix this theme already....

I first heard of this VGM theme when Jonny Atma released his GaMetal remix (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xZrlGWSQE9M) of it. I was surprised how much like generic heavy metal his remix sounded (I can normally tell that the original VGM themes aren't in the heavy metal genre).

You can hear some E minor versions of this theme later in the game.

I can't believe I can't find whether GilvaSunner also ripped a video for this song. Is this version even in this game's OST?

#8
"Battle! Elite Four"/"Battle! (Elite Four)"/"Elite Four Battle", from Pokemon Black and Pokemon White, used as a boss theme

This is one of the better Elite Four themes, IMO (put it this way--I played Pokemon Diamond and beat its Elite Four several times, some of them with the sound on, and I still can't remember their theme).

So yeah, I put it in a quiz since this melody is easier to transcribe than some other Pokemon songs I recognize.

#9
"Boss Battle 1", from Chrono Trigger
Timestamp: 0:31

Yup, my melody was the last 4 bars of this theme. (OK, I saw a transcription where this was split into more than 4 bars.)

I find this theme rather dissonant, anyway, so I didn't want to transcribe too much of it. These bars are some of the most consonant in the entire theme....

#10
"The Master!"/"Master Battle", from Paper Mario, used as an optional boss theme

#11
"Megaton Punch", from Kirby Super Star, used as a minigame theme
Timestamp: 0:21

I actually ripped this melody directly from an old (and somewhat thin-sounding) piano transcription of mine. Given how much better my less faithful piano arrangement of this song sounds, I currently doubt I'll ever submit that transcription to NinSheetMusic, though feel free to convince me otherwise...

The key signatures of this piece get confusing at times, and I'm tentative on whether this melody is actually in E flat major with minor-key leanings.

"Tango of the Troupple King", from Shovel Knight: Plague of Shadows

Possibly the most famous song in Shovel Knight: Plague of Shadows, and it's a great one, too.

For those people who say this melody sounds rather like "Spin Ye Bottle" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oWKsw8M8Xlk) from the original Shovel Knight, I wonder who everyone in that series is taking their dancing lessons from....

As another note regarding my quiz, I'm somewhat debating whether or not this Easy version will actually count for points or if it'll just be a fun little bonus game that doesn't count for the official round before I post the answers, but in the latter case answers for the Easy round would still be accepted and tallied separately.

For the matter, I don't think I ever played the final boss fight of Plants vs. Zombies with the sound on, and after listening to its GaMetal remix, all I remember is its starting melody. Oh, and the theme is too mild for my (especially final boss theme) tastes, and I find its use of funk a bit weird.

Loonboon all the way!

The fact that I did not recognize #25 at all, let alone miss it entirely, is concerning, but separated from all the ambient background instrumentation, it sounds pretty generic

It's in the files for the PC version too. I decided to leave it as [PC] because that's how everyone thinks of Undertale anyway; the alternative would've been to mark it as [MUL] because of both the PS4 and PSVita versions which, well, probably would've been more problematic and unhelpful than necessary...

Just posting to say that whoever runs the schedule now should take me off as a normal host and get rid of any future quiz dates for me. I love this game, but hosting has lost its spark for me, and it's a pretty big hassle nowadays, with school and personal life and everything. I do still plan on participating in other people's quizzes, though, because this is definitely a great game. Except when people do what msf did. Or what I did.

lol I'm a day late but here it is, the moment you've all been waiting for:

Static's Miscellaneous Melody Quiz X (Round 76)
[.MID] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B6i3fGvW_38VcVg2N3dwT3VSSkU) [.MUS] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B6i3fGvW_38VMkYwQUQzLS1TWTA) [.MUSX] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B6i3fGvW_38VUzY2SzI5U3Q4UXc) [.PDF] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B6i3fGvW_38VSXIybkx5VkRCbzQ)

This time it's just a normal quiz. No gimmicks or anything, just some nice melodies.

Also, since this is a day late, I'll also post the answers a day late so you guys have the same amount of time. And if you're wondering where my 8th melody quiz is, you'll just have to wait. I'll post it eventually...

IMPORTANT EDIT/NOTE THING IDK:
The "A" & "B" melodies for #10 and #20 are not related in any way, so don't let that confuse you. I just wanted an even 20 melodies so I used 2 short ones in place of one longer one.

To help you guys out, I have prepared a series of optional hints you may use at your own discretion:

Hints
  • There are 6 Mario melodies, 4 Kirby melodies, and 2 Zelda melodies.
  • 14/22 melodies are from popular Nintendo franchises.
  • 4 melodies are from what I consider to be relatively obscure titles.
  • None of these melodies have been used in any previous quiz, and all of the games included have been used except for 3.
  • There are 2 NES melodies, 5 SNES melodies, 3 GCN melodies, 4 DS melodies, 3 Wii melodies, 2 MUL melodies, and 3 PC melodies.
[close]

In addition to this, I will allow one (1) hint per contestant on a melody of their choice. This hint will not be posted publicly.

This was rushed out, although the melodies were picked earlier (they're probably still chosen badly though lol).

I'll say more about it later, but right now it's just a normal quiz.

All right, since I posted the quiz a day late, I figured I'd post the answers a day late as well. The overall "theme" of sorts of this quiz (if you can really say there is one) is having a mastery of an OST's songs. Most of the games in this quiz are pretty easily recognizable, but the melodies I chose were brutal in many instances.

Quote from: Static on September 24, 2017, 02:57:08 PMAll right, since I posted the quiz a day late, I figured I'd post the answers a day late as well. The overall "theme" of sorts of this quiz (if you can really say there is one) is having a mastery of an OST's songs. Most of the games in this quiz are pretty easily recognizable, but the melodies I chose were brutal in many instances.

"Mastery of an OSTs songs"
yes but who would master either of these OSTs
and uh... of all fan games you picked touhou koubuto, which i am certain no one here looks at. i was just about to get mad at myself over missing a ridiculously easy EoSD one but then i realised that. you're lucky i even know what that is
also i was about to not get mad about not getting the touhou 16 one but i guess now it's the most warranted. at least i recognised that one

Well that "mastery of OSTs" theme is more general; there are some melodies that don't fall into it like #11... or #10-A and #16...

Post by: mastersuperfan on September 24, 2017, 03:21:49 PM
Yeah I'm pretty sure #11 is the antithesis of your whole theme considering you hear it over and over and over and over and over and fuck the Medusa shot me

Post by: Dekkadeci on September 25, 2017, 05:15:44 PM
I'm filling in this round, so here's my ninth Guess-The-Song Quiz:
[PDF] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZcERmYTJrNjdieDA) | [MIDI] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZeEs1dFJZSUZHN3M) | [MUS] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZeGhvWmd6TXFsOW8) | [MSCZ] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZRWV6aVhsVFhXM0U)

The MUS is readable in Finale, including Finale Notepad. The MSCZ is readable in Musescore. All other files are based on the original MSCZ, not the MUS--this explains why the PDF doesn't look like the MUS.
The MUS may display and/or play back bugged. The MSCZ, MIDI, and PDF shouldn't.

This quiz has a theme! Getting the theme correct is worth 2 points. Knowing the theme makes this quiz substantially easier, especially for the obscure melodies. Oh yeah, I repeated at least one song from a previous quiz just to fit the theme.
This quiz also has a bonus question (of sorts)! #??? is worth 1 point (just like all the others). It's an unofficial remix of a VGM theme, and if you know which remix it's from, it basically reveals what the theme is. Note that all notes with X's for heads are meant to be drum beats, not actual notes.
If you've paid close attention to my posts here (and my other appearances on the web), you have a fair chance of figuring out what the theme is.

Don't feel too bad if you only get one or two! Several of the melodies in this quiz are pretty tough, though I did try to squeeze in some familiar ones. PM away!

Due to this quiz being posted late, you can PM answers to me until Thursday, Sept. 28 at 5:00 PM MDT (a.k.a. Friday, Sept. 29 12:00 AM forum default time). I will not count any submissions made after that time, as I'll be too busy tallying results.
Results will be posted shortly afterwards.

Some guidelines for answering, how the melodies are transcribed, and what counts as a correct answer--oh yeah, and some hints right off the bat:

#1
"Stickerbrush Symphony", from Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest, used as a stage theme

This song is pretty famous, and I was surprised it hadn't been used in a quiz yet, so I put it in this quiz.

"One-Winged Angel", from Final Fantasy VII, used as one of Sephiroth's final boss themes
Timestamp: 1:09

This piece is so famous that one of my schoolmates played a piano transcription of it during one of my school recitals in Grade 8.

This is one of the only melodies I remember from this song, FYI.

#3
"Cursed Leorina", from Klonoa 2: Lunatea's Veil, used as a boss theme
Timestamp: 0:36

Finally, a quiz where I can get away with using Klonoa music! This song fits the theme, after all, despite how obscure it is.

The first note of this melody actually sounds a tad longer in the song, so I did take a couple liberties when transcribing it.

I actually picked this theme partially because it is somewhat slow, so it would throw off those who would otherwise assume that the theme is fast VGM music.

I don't know why, but this song reminds me of Pokemon Mystery Dungeon music. Is it the fact it's in E minor? Is it the orchestration, especially for a boss theme?

#4
"ASGORE", from Undertale, used as Asgore's boss theme
Timestamp: 0:34

This song is pretty famous, so I thought I'd better use it in a quiz. I personally think it's in (flat) D minor, even though I've heard C sharp minor arrangements of it before (to agree with "Bergentrückung" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YivzBeEwzWI), which plays just before it).

Yeah, I did use the melody that takes motives from "Heartache" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xflkF-sqNaM). I marked that song as wrong since it's in the wrong key and meter for this melody.

#5
"One Minute Left!"/"Now or Never!", from Splatoon
Timestamp: 0:06

Man, I wish I could transcribe the Splatfest version (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7y51Lzom8zk) instead for this quiz. Its rhythms are a lot easier to transcribe! But sadly, the Splatfest version does not fit the theme, it's in the wrong key, and as much as I wish I could use its rhythms for #5, they're not quite the same as the rhythms of the real answer.

Before I released this quiz, I'd never heard of this theme as "Now or Never!". You learn something music-related every day, as Static pointed out to me that this song is also known by that name.

#6
"P-R-O-G-R-A-M"/"Vagrant Counting Song of Retrospection", from Kirby: Planet Robobot, used as the theme for the third stage of the final boss
Timestamp: 0:00

"That Spinning Star is a Planet", from Kirby: Planet Robobot, used as the title theme
Timestamp: 0:00

Yes, I fully accepted both songs, knowing how much it could potentially throw off theme guessers. I PM'd everyone who guessed the second song that another song that uses #6's melody fits the theme better.

This is in partially because, as a relatively laidback melody, it likely broke a lot of patterns involving my typical quiz music selection process. Thus, it may have made the theme harder to guess.

This is also in partially because I've wanted to transcribe those first 4 bars for a long while now.

Oyyyy, it looks like HAL Laboratory hasn't lost the knack of giving VGM songs strange names from their Earthbound days...either that or something got lost in translation (note that the "Vagrant Counting Song of Retrospection" title has been translated from Japanese).

#7
"Venus Lighthouse", from Golden Sun, used as a stage theme
Timestamp: 0:00

I didn't think this theme was as obscure as some of the others in this quiz, it's also sorta slow, and yet it fits the theme, so I put it in this quiz.

When I listened to the original, I was surprised how familiar it already sounded. Was it really the times I watched my cousin play Golden Sun?

"Rainbow Road", from Mario Kart 64, used as a racetrack theme
Timestamp: 0:07

While Rainbow Road is usually one of the hardest courses in a Mario Kart game, this one is a surprisingly easy exception. Screw Toad's Turnpike, that was the hardest course in Mario Kart 64...

Funnily enough, I could have used the F-Zero X version instead (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cXqJEEAA-sw) and it still would have fit the theme (https://youtu.be/64MOJKxip6o?t=1m36s). I decided to be nice, though.

I don't remember whether we've used this song and/or this melody in a previous quiz. I'd like to think no, but....

"Battle! Champion Cynthia"/"Battle! (Champion)", from Pokemon Diamond, Pokemon Pearl, and Pokemon Platinum

I promised myself I would put a Zelda song in this quiz. Unfortunately, we've used dang near all of the Zelda songs that fit this theme. So I repeated this song from a previous quiz, and used the part immediately after the previously used melody.

"Title Theme"/"Main Theme", from Skate or Die! (C64)
Timestamp: 1:55

So apparently Rob Hubbard is a famous 8-bit composer, and he wrote this song. I've heard of the Follin brothers more often, though.

I was probably cruel for picking a section this far into a rather obscure song, but it was the easiest section to transcribe.

I accepted the NES version of this song (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BjjKp3dHYxs) as correct, even though it's in E minor instead of E flat minor. Untangling the history of this game and this song is a dang mess.

Note that the above is the NTSC version--the PAL version (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZGdQl-xY9xA) is slower.

"Pokey Means Business"/"Porky Means Business", from EarthBound, used as a boss theme
Timestamp: 0:53

I transcribed the melody that plays right at the strong stylistic shift. This song's infamous for switching to a grindy heavy metal style after nearly a minute in.

Maybe the fact that I didn't transcribe the falls threw off some people, though.

Nevertheless, I'm surprised how few of you got this correct. I thought this was famous enough....

"Mechanical Rhythm", from Xenoblade Chronicles, used as the regular battle theme while in Mechonis
Timestamp: 0:01

"Mechanical Rhythm" rocks, 'nuff said.

Part of me wants to transcribe this theme in full, and part of me should really just PM daj to make the "theoretically possible" piano transcription of it. It's complex enough, at any rate.

I've wanted to transcribe the first 2 bars of it (sans lead-up) for a long time, at any rate, so I finally did. Y'all got only the first 2 bars because I believe they're distinctive enough to recognize this theme from them.

Note that this is not the melody I used in a previous quiz for "Mechanical Rhythm".

"Their Own Brand of Justice", from Etrian Odyssey III: The Drowned City, used as a boss theme
Timestamp: 1:28

I wanted to put this theme in my fourth Guess-That-Song Quiz, but it's actually trickier to transcribe than you'd think. Unclear melody notes, bad sound balancing...I may need to trust arrangements of this theme more in terms of what the melody is.

So apparently this song sounds like Yngwie Malmsteen's "Far Beyond the Sun" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TbHc5i4O2tc). Heck, it might sound like neoclassical metal in general. Maybe that's why I like it.

...Yeah, I actually picked this theme for this quiz partially because I expected someone in particular to get it correct on the first try despite its obscurity. Luckily, he did.

"Vs. Star Dream"/"Mind in a PROGRAM", from Kirby: Planet Robobot, used as the theme for the first stage of the final boss

I owed you all an easier melody from this song, so I transcribed this. I used the portion of this song that quotes the Halberd Interior theme in my first quiz, and that was definitely less fair than this selection.

Yes, you get to hear the starting motif of this melody several times in that game.

I like 3 songs (so far) out of the Wario: Master of Disguise soundtrack, and no one else here seems to be familiar with them. It doesn't help that I keep bumping into these songs.

The motives in this song are used somewhat often in this game--listen to "The Silver Zephyr" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JP0-e0KKIoU) for another example. (Yeah, the title of that video is misspelled.)

"Galacta Knight (Kirby Super Star Ultra)"/"Galactic Warrior (Kirby Super Star Ultra: Galacta Knight)", arranged by Jonny Atma of GaMetal fame
Timestamp: 0:00

The "Galactic Warrior" title is from the GaMetal Bandcamp page (https://gametal.bandcamp.com/album/gametal-v).

I tend to transcribe drum beats into actual piano notes in my piano transcriptions. I suspect I'd pick those notes for Bar 3 if I were to transcribe this arrangement for real.

There aren't many remixes of Galacta Knight's theme that I like more than the one on the back of the Kirby Super Star Ultra OST CD (https://youtu.be/M8APsdUkebs?t=3m54s), and good thing this is one of them. It's reasonably accurate, it keeps the energy and bite, and it even manages to throw in a solo-on-top passage! For some reason, I always find that Japanese remixers mess this theme up.

Galacta Knight's theme is still in my Top 2 Favourite Kirby themes (sometimes, the regular boss theme from Kirby's Return to Dream Land (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=01AOQZLbcrY) comes out on top), and along with the Halberd themes and the fact I could recognize "Gourmet Race", those few songs got me interested in Kirby music in the first place.

If you got this remix correct, then the theme was pretty much revealed to you.

Theme
As the answer for #??? no doubt spoiled, the theme of this quiz is GaMetal remixes. Yup, I like listening to GaMetal. Every single song in this quiz is involved in a GaMetal remix (and a full-fledged one, too, not an acoustic short)! Even the song for #??? technically fit this theme, as it's a remix of the earlier 2010  (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v8OIqTW_2Qg)GaMetal  (http://www.jonnyatma.com/gametal/galacta.html)version (http://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/365573). No, the 2010 version does not use #???'s melody.
I'm surprised how much the 2010 version sounds like it's remixing the Kirby's Return to Dream Land version (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zOzY-bLnHYc), even though it was released before that game was.
Yeah, the 2010 version is the song that introduced me to GaMetal, and other works of his such as his remix of the Silver Surfer theme (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WsQvQrgnQbE) got me hooked.

1 out of 4 people got the theme correct and earned 2 extra points because of this.

It's probably because the quizzes happen so frequently. People are back in school which means less time during the week, which means less time to look at quizzes posted on Mondays and Wednesdays.

Honestly, if it were up to me, I'd make the quizzes happen weekly from now on so everybody has time to participate. I know that I personally have missed a few recently due to things being busy in my life.

Saturday? Close enough.

MSF ROUND X1 (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/1cutkl5w1x3x9bz/AACF29Kowa4iaIF8EmZUdK-5a?dl=0)   don't ask me what the X stands for no seriously I don't know

To make up for the insanity that was last round, this quiz is short (15 melodies) and not too difficult. The breakdown of melodies as is follows:
This quiz takes after the format of my second quiz, with 10 normal (perfectly manageable) melodies and 5 more difficult brutally impossible melodies--the final five. Everything in the first 10 should get guessed pretty easily by multiple people, though I can't say whether or not the melodies in the last 5 will be recognized. They're not impossible, though.

I may end up posting hints for the last 5 melodies, or maybe just for the ones that don't get guessed. We'll see.

Now, go nuts.

#4: JVRJFEGJFDJGSRIFJGTEJFDJS HOW DIDNT IT EVEN SOUND FAMILIAR??? Oh and yes, it's one of (if not the) happiest pmd song ever, and I really like it.
#8: lol, in fact I was speaking of #9 so:
#9: somehow I was convinced it was a route music so I spent way too much time looking for it at the wrong place
#12: this is so similar to bw ending
#13: although I played pearl, I never played platinum, I think I should, but anyway the gem 4 remakes will probably be a platinum remake, like hgss are cristal remakes, so this theme will be in them!


Well, I could have done way better than 0...

I was very confused to see that nobody had #13, so I went back to see if it had anything to do with my transcription. After some thought, I decided that it would be best to have staccatos on some of these notes--#13 has been edited and updated accordingly.

Answers and Results!

#1 (4/11) (Other #1)
"An Underlying Problem" - [MUL] Shovel Knight

Timestamp: 0:29 - 0:37

I really love this track, even though I feel like it gets overlooked quite a bit (though not nearly as much as A Cool Reception). Rather clearly evidenced by the fact that some of the competitors who recognized this one couldn't remember its name right away...

Quote from: Yug_GuyI mean, #1 does sound familiar, I'll give it that

#2 (2/11) (Mario #1)
"Daisy Hills" - [3DS] Mario Kart 7

Timestamp: 0:30 - 0:37

Yeah, so I know using tracks from MK7 is a little mean. I was tempted to go with something from Super Circuit, but I actually like Daisy Hills so I went with it instead. Good thing more than just the obvious person got it.

Awesome track. Pretty well-known, too, it looks like.

Also in:
  • [GBA] Pokémon Emerald Version
  • [3DS] Pokémon Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire (https://youtu.be/5B7mm2oQZMU?t=46s)

Very underrated track, and I love this melody. I thought the grace note in the fourth measure would have given it away as Gen 3, but maybe not.

#6 (6/11) (Mario #2)
"Space Storm Galaxy" - [Wii] Super Mario Galaxy 2

Timestamp: 0:11 - 0:23

Perhaps not talked about much, but it looks like this is still a pretty memorable track, considering five competitors all got it right off the bat and a sixth remembered it later.

Maybe it's just me, but I feel like Galaxy 2 music is underrated in general...

Quote from: Maelstrom6 sounds familiar

I uh may have put this melody in just to troll. But it's okay because some people still know it.

Also in: Kirby Air Ride (https://youtu.be/vhwE93eM17A?t=23s)

For some reason people have tended not to get the Kirby 64 melodies that others use. So I just stuck with something simple here, and it looks like it paid off.

Okay, so I might also have put this one in to troll someone in particular. It's a pretty good track, though, and certainly not a difficult one by Ace Attorney standards, especially considering how often it plays.

I guess that's what I get for basically not remembering any themes related to Mole Knight, Treasure Knight, and/or Polar Knight.

(I personally rank Specter Knight and Plague Knight's themes in the middle, Propeller Knight's themes between Plague+ Knights' and Mole+ Knights', and all other knights' themes on top of them in terms of Order of No Quarter music rankings.)

As someone who ranks the Order of No Quarter themes in terms of (personal) catchiness, I don't remember what that one sounds like 2-4 listens later. And I've listened to the entire Shovel Knight OST at least once.

Nah, for Order of No Quarter stage themes, I'm the most into "In the Halls of the Usurper" and "Of Devious Machinations".

(Yeah, I gotta play Shovel Knight sometime instead of just watching footage and analyzing the .nsf. I don't even have Steam, though, we haven't played on the Wii in years, and we don't even have a Wii U.)

Unlike Propeller Knight's vaguely namby-pamby music (especially his boss theme), Specter Knight and Plague Knight's boss themes are energetic enough to catch my attention. However, they're too dissonant for my tastes--I've only been able to figure out that some of "The Apparition" has a key, and I only figured out later that "The Vital Vitriol" uses the whole tone scale (and that's why I don't like it so much). I've grown to appreciate "Flowers of Antimony" more after figuring it was easier to transcribe for Guess-The-Song quizzes than "The Vital Vitriol", but "La Danse Macabre" fails to be anywhere near as catchy as the much older "Danse Macabre" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YyknBTm_YyM) by Camille Saint-Saëns (and even that song has its flaws--its slow parts are too long, but at least I can appreciate its storyline, and you get circa 5 minutes straight of awesome fast music). I find "La Danse Macabre" to be unmemorable.

I honestly can't believe you're actually comparing these two, as if the similar titles make the two pieces have anything to do with each other

And besides, I and many others find La Danse Macabre to not only be catchy, but also intense, complex and tonally varied, so I'm not sure what you're missing

I forgot to finish my tenth one, so I'm throwing this out instead. Trust me, this thing is nasty. I picked out some pretty obscure stuff just because there's so few of them and I felt like doing it (because y'know, I haven't really done it before).

The first page consists of one of each of the big four (Mario, Pokemon, Zelda, Kirby), while the second page consists of self-indulgent miscellaneous series, and a joke one not worth any points. Whether or not the self-indulgent ones should be included in the total will be considered as it goes along. Also I might post hints later on, not that they'll be too useful.

Take note: I'm not sorry.

MSF ROUND X2 (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/oo82j94cb6ycqd6/AABQmkoqtmybRv7Ct34WWuYEa?dl=0)   once again, please refrain from asking what the X stands for

You know the drill:
Two of each in the first 10, and one of each in the last 5, which are harder than the first 10 (but not nearly as hard as last round's).

I tried to make this one easier, so I hope it shows. I'd be rather surprised if any of these didn't get guessed--even in the last 5. (I imagine we might see a few 3/3's here...)

Now, go nuts.

Oops.

I thought about it, and decided that only the first four counted for anything, so it's just out of 4 (not that it really affects anything anyway lol).


Actual Quiz:

#1
Title Screen - Pokemon Pinball:

This was better than I expected, and that's the only reason I picked it (besides its obscurity obviously).

[close]

#2
Minigame - Tingle's Rosy Rupeeland:

Good thing no one got this one. That would only say so much about them. Not that this was released in the US anyway.

[close]

#3
Title Screen (Part 2) - Kirby's Star Stacker:

I have a feeling Levi would've gotten this one if he participated. Oh well.

[close]

#4
Heeeere's Waluigi! - Mario Party 3:

Lol. This is pretty self-indulgent too.

[close]

Self Indulgence:

Bonus #1
Through The Air (Theme of Quick Man) - Mega Man Battle & Chase:

Probably the most notable song from this game, but obviously still ridiculously obscure. This wasn't released in the US either.

[close]

Bonus #2
Remix 8 - Rhythm Tengoku:

It's so repetitive lol. At least it's catchy. Too bad it's Japan-only.

[close]

Bonus #3
Catastrophe in Bhava-Agra ~ Wonderful Heaven (CD Arr.) - Touhou 10.5: Scarlet Weather Rhapsody:

I dunno I just like this arrangement. Like other Touhou stuff, it's Japan-only.

[close]

idk

this doesn't count but if someone gets it i'll laugh
Our Love is Stronger than a Golden Banana - Donkey Kong Country:

"I see bananas when I look in your eyes..."

[close]


idk whatever's left
Congrats to Latios212 for being the only person with a point, landing him a score of 1/4. Obviously he got the Pokemon Pinball one. Noice.
[close]

Now go do MSF's quiz and don't pester me.

Here I was for WaluigiTime64's quiz, raiding Mario Kart OSTs for #3 (due to its resemblance to the Mario Kart title theme motif).

Because Latios won't be able to post a quiz Saturday, I shall be going (it's 15 minutes away from Saturday where I live lol):

Static's Miscellaneous Melody Quiz XI (Round 84)
[Folder of Stuff] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B6i3fGvW_38VMC1WeDJfcDE3cWM)

This quiz is similar to many previous quizzes in that there are melodies in it, but now there are some bassline-only, chord-only, and rhythm-only melodies. Hopefully some of you guys will figure them out.

Also, if you manage to score at least a 3 on this quiz, you'll have the option to take a special supplementary bonus quiz with 5 additional melodies that can add to your score. However, there's a catch: If you don't correctly guess at least one melody on this quiz by the time I post the results, your score will drop to 0. If you think you're lucky, try this option. Keep in mind that the melodies on this supplementary quiz are Nintendo-only and come from 5 separate series. I will also allow one hint for a melody of your choice for the supplementary quiz only.

Post by: Static on October 14, 2017, 07:18:31 AM
Sorry for the double-post, but this is an important announcement:

Because I'm such a nice person, and also because of the nature of melody quizzes, I'm now allowing anyone to take the supplementary quiz no matter their score. However, all of the other rules and caveats still apply so it may not be in your best interest to try it out.

It seems I have once again overestimated my quiz lol, so I'm back with some (optional) hints for the main quiz:

Spoiler
  • 17 of the 20 melodies are from Nintendo systems.
  • 13 of the 20 melodies are from Nintendo-exclusive series.
  • There are 4 Mario melodies, 3 Zelda melodies, and 3 Kirby melodies.
  • There are 2 NES melodies, 4 SNES melodies, 3 GCN melodies, 1 DS melody, 2 Wii melodies, 1 3DS melody, 2 Wii U melodies, 1 PS4 melody, 2 PC melodies, and 2 MUL melodies.

Similar to what MSF has done in the past, I will be listing some games that are not featured in this quiz:

  • [NES] Dragon Warrior
  • [SNES] Final Fantasy IV
  • [SNES] Secret of Mana

In addition to all of these hints, I will be offering up to 5 hints on melodies of one's choice, but you can only use one hint for one melody.

May as well post this just before I go to bed.

Here's my tenth(!) Guess-The-Song Quiz:
[PDF] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZU0QtNF9Qd05FbFU) | [MIDI] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZVzk1aTBaWWR4Q28) | [MUS] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZeHZya3NyWkUzRTA) | [MSCZ] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZZUhvOFVodERGZkk)

The MUS is readable in Finale, including Finale Notepad. The MSCZ is readable in Musescore. All other files are based on the original MSCZ, not the MUS--this explains why the PDF doesn't look like the MUS.
The MUS may display and/or play back bugged. The MSCZ, MIDI, and PDF shouldn't.

This quiz shouldn't be too difficult, but don't feel too bad if you only get one or two! PM away!

You can PM answers to me until Saturday, Oct. 21 at 1:00 PM MDT (a.k.a. Saturday, Oct. 21 8:00 PM forum default time). I will not count any submissions made after that time, as I'll be too busy tallying results.
Results will be posted shortly afterwards.

Some guidelines for answering, how the melodies are transcribed, and what counts as a correct answer--oh yeah, and some hints right off the bat:

Well, if there's one thing I've learned from this, it's that supplementary quizzes were kind of a bad idea and screwed some people over (though luckily some were able to save themselves). Maybe in future I'll try to implement some more fair idea, who knows. Either way, thanks for trying this quiz out, it was a fun one.

Here are the answers to my latest quiz:

#1
"Title"/"Title Screen"/"Title Theme"/"Main Theme", from Super Mario Kart
Timestamp: 0:04

Yeah, this theme has been remixed into every Mario Kart title theme since.

5 out of 5 people got this correct.

#2
"The Rival (Black Knight - First Battle)", from Shovel Knight, used as a boss theme
Timestamp: 0:46

We've collectively covered all the other themes associated with Shovel Knight's Black Knight, so you knew this would be coming eventually.

Yeah, this quotes "Strike the Earth!", and I was hoping that this may jog some users' memories about where this melody could come from.

1 out of 5 people got this correct.

#3
"Title"/"Title Theme"/"Main Theme", from Mario Kart: Double Dash!!
Timestamp: 0:01

I've been tempted to arrange a Mario Kart: Double Dash!! medley that contains the Waluigi Stadium theme, then the Mushroom City theme, then this.

At any rate, Mario Kart: Double Dash!! music is deceptively complex key-wise, what with chromatic neighbour tones (such as the note this melody starts with), flattened mediants in major-key pieces (like this one), flattened subtonics in major-key pieces, and all.

4 out of 5 people got this correct.
People who got this correct
mastersuperfan, Static, ThatHiddenCharacter, WaluigiTime64

#4
"Money Machine"/"Crazy Rolling in Money", from Kirby: Planet Robobot, used as President Haltmann's (and President Haltmann 2.0's) boss theme
Timestamp: 1:22

This is one of the more consonant melodies in President Haltmann's boss theme, and I thought it would still be recognizable enough.

Given how dissonant and strange this is, I commonly think of this theme as "Max's Theme" (the boss's given names are Max Profitt), as it seems rather like Marx's theme updated for the 21st century. I detect world music influences in "Max's Theme", though, unlike in Marx's theme.

Dudeman should show up and get his Kirby: Planet Robobot song correct.

#5
"Winning Results"/"Result #1 (Win)", from Mario Kart 64, used as a results theme
Timestamp: 0:17

Yeah, I leaned pretty hard on The Deku Trombonist's transcription of this piece to write this melody.

This song is infa (https://www.cmuse.org/14-musical-works-in-the-most-unusual-time-signatures/)mously  (https://www.gamefaqs.com/top10/2627-the-top-10-video-game-tracks-with-unusual-time-signatures)in 11/8 (https://www.reddit.com/r/Music/comments/2zzz8u/mario_kart_64_winner_theme_funk_one_of_the_only/), and that can be pretty disorienting at times.

#6
"Sky Tower"/"Castle Area", from Kirby's Return to Dream Land, used as a stage theme
Timestamp: 0:00

Remember #6 from my last quiz, "Vagrant Counting Song of Retrospection"/"That Spinning Star is a Planet"? This melody sounds an awful lot like the last #6 I used, which is why I put it in that slot.

2 out of 5 people got this correct.

#7
"Bowser's Castle", from Mario Kart 8, used as a racetrack theme
Timestamp: 0:17

I remember going through the Mario Kart 8 OST during work some time back, and when I raided this OST again for answers to a previous Guess-That-Song quiz, I bumped into this piece again and was reminded of how great it is.

I like the metal and jazz influences in this piece. It's rather like aggressive jazz fusion.

Now, why does the piece itself have to start with an F sharp minor riff when the rest of this piece is in D minor...

(...yeah, I know, there are FOUR Mario Kart themes in this quiz.)

3 out of 5 people got this correct.

#8
"Ai no Uta", from Pikmin, used as the "main theme"
Timestamp: 0:07

"Ai no Uta" is pretty much the only song I remember from the Pikmin series (and, even then, it's only by name), and I guess I've gotta transcribe Pikmin music for Guess-That-Song quizzes eventually.

So, I transcribed this cold.

I'm surprised we haven't used this song yet, especially given that it's in Super Smash Bros. Brawl (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9RJIcYXWdHc).

(The title translates to "Love Song"/"Song of Love", for those who care.)

#9
"Final Boss 2", from Freedom Planet, used as the second final boss theme
Timestamp: 0:03

I first heard this theme as a Musescore arrangement, FWIW. It was actually the part around 0:27 that caught my attention first--it sounds sorta familiar to me.

0 out of 5 people got this correct.

#10
"Doom Dragon"/"Doom Dragon Battle"/"Final Boss", from Golden Sun: The Lost Age, used as the final boss theme
Timestamp: 0:04

Motoi Sakuraba has a habit of composing pretty insane mixed meter pieces, such as this one. Oh no, this isn't done changing time signatures yet!

I picked this theme because it's one of the only Golden Sun themes to appear in a Super Smash Bros. game (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xBHVhDLoRx0). I picked this melody because it's one of the most distinctive melodies in the entire Smash Bros. remix, IMO.

1 out of 5 people got this correct.

#11
"Heavy Lobster"/"Heavy Lobster Battle", from Kirby Super Star Ultra, used as a boss theme
Timestamp: 0:00

I've made enough references to this theme in other NinSheetMusic posts of mine, so I figured it was time to use it in a Guess-That-Song quiz.

As far as I can tell, this theme and Galacta Knight's theme are the only themes in Kirby Super Star Ultra that are completely new--all the other KSSU themes that weren't in Kirby Super Star are remixes of preexisting Kirby themes.

I was too lazy to transcribe the very-prominent-at-times accompaniment for this melody.

1 out of 5 people got this correct.

#12
"Boss B"/"Boss Battle (Theme 2)", from Star Fox 64, used as a boss theme
Timestamp: 0:15

So I hear "Boss Battle (Theme 5)" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y0ri9V7Qd4c) is this song, just with a different intro. Yeah, I accepted it, too.

...Yeah, this is yet another VGM theme I first found by listening to a GaMetal remix. Fun fact: that's how I discovered Undertale music, too--I first heard that game existed from reading the description of the GaMetal Megalovania remix.

...All right, who came up with that 3-3-2-2 rhythmic pattern first?!?

Just threw something together. It's not in order of difficulty obviously, but you should be able to guess the theme easily (as in, so easily that you could know none of the melodies but still get it). There's no points for guessing it lol.

In slight exchange for the easy theme, the phrases are restricted to only 4 measures per melody. Have fun.

In the remaining 6 melodies (8, 13, 14, 17, 18, 20), four of them are from either Mario, Kirby, or Pokémon. The sole Zelda melody remains unguessed, along with one other miscellaneous melody. In other words, 6 out of 10 melodies have been guessed from Mario/Kirby/Pokémon, and 8 out of 10 melodies from everything else miscellaneous have been guessed.

Darn, I thought #7 and #10 from Wah's quiz sounded familiar. Is that melody from #10 a recurring motif in Paper Mario? It sounded like the Goomba Village theme.

I was about to guess that the theme of that quiz was "pieces that aren't completely in major or minor keys", but I guess that says something about how people think desert music is supposed to sound like.

Actually that's sort-of what I leaned towards anyway, although it's really easy to tell which ones are major or minor. I was just going to use songs with interesting scales but after about 3 of them I just stopped at desert-like scales (double harmonic, etc.).

This will be my last Guess-The-Song Quiz for a while, as I will be moving to Victoria, BC for a contract position.

Here's my 11th Guess-The-Song Quiz:
[PDF] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZMmRFaFhSNTZaUmc) | [MIDI] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZV1pzM3BJc0tJSkU) | [MUS] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZVlIwM2R2S1kwOEE) | [MSCZ] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZdTRDMnc3X0hFNGc)

The MUS is readable in Finale, including Finale Notepad. The MSCZ is readable in Musescore. All other files are based on the original MSCZ, not the MUS--this explains why the PDF doesn't look like the MUS.
The MUS may display and/or play back bugged. The MSCZ, MIDI, and PDF shouldn't.
With that being said, #6 contains scoops that don't play back.

This quiz shouldn't be too difficult, but don't feel too bad if you only get one or two! PM away!

You can PM answers to me until Saturday, Nov. 4 at 1:00 PM MDT (a.k.a. Saturday, Nov. 4 8:00 PM forum default time). I will not count any submissions made after that time, as I'll be too busy tallying results.
Results will be posted shortly afterwards.

Some guidelines for answering, how the melodies are transcribed, and what counts as a correct answer--oh yeah, and some hints right off the bat:

Due to a previously unforeseen flight to Victoria, BC, I'll need to move the deadline for my Guess-That-Song Quiz earlier to Friday, Nov. 3 at 10:00 PM MDT (a.k.a. Saturday, Nov. 4 5:00 AM forum default time).

In case you didn't see my quiz on the last page, here it is:
[PDF] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZMmRFaFhSNTZaUmc) | [MIDI] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZV1pzM3BJc0tJSkU) | [MUS] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZVlIwM2R2S1kwOEE) | [MSCZ] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B039DrYUfeUZdTRDMnc3X0hFNGc)

The MUS is readable in Finale, including Finale Notepad. The MSCZ is readable in Musescore. All other files are based on the original MSCZ, not the MUS--this explains why the PDF doesn't look like the MUS.
The MUS may display and/or play back bugged. The MSCZ, MIDI, and PDF shouldn't.
With that being said, #6 contains scoops that don't play back.

This quiz shouldn't be too difficult, but don't feel too bad if you only get one or two! PM away!

You can PM answers to me until Friday, Nov. 3 at 10:00 PM MDT (a.k.a. Saturday, Nov. 4 5:00 AM forum default time). I will not count any submissions made after that time, as I'll be too busy tallying results.
Results will be posted shortly afterwards.

Some guidelines for answering, how the melodies are transcribed, and what counts as a correct answer--oh yeah, and some hints right off the bat:

Post by: Dekkadeci on November 03, 2017, 09:54:14 PM
Here are the answers to my latest quiz:

#1
"The Arena"/"Arena Battle", from Kirby's Return to Dream Land, used as a boss rush battle theme
Timestamp: 0:03

A.k.a. the Kirby GCN trailer theme, this is the song that started it all. ...Kirby's Return to Dream Land-wise, that is.

Loads of other songs in Kirby's Return to Dream Land's OST reuse motives from this song, so I expected you to figure out which game this was from based on that.

1 out of 4 people got this correct.

#2
"The Schemer (Tinker Knight Battle)", from Shovel Knight, used as one of Tinker Knight's boss themes
Timestamp: 0:02

So I hear you can OHKO Tinker Knight with a certain item. No wonder this theme is so short.

Tinker Knight's boss theme when he hops into his tank, on the other hand...now that's a doozy (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hKRngIDQsms).

2 out of 4 people got this correct.

#3
"A Shot of Crisis", from Chrono Trigger
Timestamp: 0:00

I like this song. I did use the NinSheetMusic transcription for this melody, although the presence of some of those eighth notes is actually debatable.

1 out of 4 people got this correct.

#4
"Still More Fighting"/"Those Who Fight Further"/"Fight On!", from Final Fantasy VII, used as a boss theme
Timestamp: 0:00

I used a particularly tricky section of this song in my first Guess-That-Song Quiz, so I owed you all an easier excerpt.

I'd say the very start of this song is an easier excerpt.

1 out of 4 people got this correct.

#5
"The World Adventure", from Sonic Unleashed, used as the title theme
Timestamp: 0:13

This sounds a ton like John Williams music, which is why I like it.

Based on all the other neat Sonic Unleashed songs I've listened to in Guess-That-Song Quiz answer panels, I really should just listen to that game's entire OST.

0 out of 4 people got this correct.

#6
"Otherworld"/"Jecht Battle", from Final Fantasy X, used as a boss theme
Timestamp: 0:00

"Jecht's Theme" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lA84db59YSY) got marked incorrect, as it does not contain this melody.

I was thinking of using a different Final Fantasy X boss theme for this quiz, but I found that this melody was the easiest to transcribe by fairly far. Sorry, I know that stuff like Seymour's boss theme is better known than this.

#7
"Distant Traveler"/"Magolor Race EX", from Kirby's Dream Collection, used as the Magolor Race EX theme
Timestamp: 0:00

This song gets remixed in Kirby: Triple Deluxe and Dedede's Drum Dash Deluxe, so I expected people to be deceptively familiar with this song that's otherwise from a more obscure Kirby game.

Yeah, guess what, this remixes themes associated with Magolor.

#8
"Boss Battle"/"Battle 2", from Final Fantasy Mystic Quest
Timestamp: 0:18

I'm not quite convinced that Final Fantasy Mystic Quest is a true Final Fantasy game, but its music rocks.

Does this song really play back in this B-C quarter-tone minor in-game? An OST of music that's entirely in quarter-tone keys would be really sweet....

#9
"Hivory Towers", from Yooka-Laylee, used as a stage theme
Timestamp: 0:05

This is the only Yooka-Laylee song I've heard of. And even then, it was only by name. So yeah, I transcribed this cold, but with substantial help from the NinSheetMusic version this time.

...I guess the Yooka-Laylee people got Grant Kirkhope to compose good old Banjo-Kazooie-style music.

#10
"Dragon Roost Island", from The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker, used as a stage theme
Timestamp: 1:02

Back when our family got this game, I didn't really get how Link's mission was to rescue his sister, not Zelda. There are too many Links with too many missions, I swear.

...Then we all got stuck in fetch quests and never reached the first boss. I think we did reach this island, though!

I apologize for not posting my quiz yesterday, I completely forgot about it while in the middle of playing Odyssey doing very important work.

But without further ado, here's the quiz thing:

Static's Miscellaneous Melody Quiz XII (Round 90)
[.MID] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B6i3fGvW_38VTDVQS0Z3UXdZY0U) [.MUS] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B6i3fGvW_38VZDBfNE55Wlg1bEU) [.MUSX] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B6i3fGvW_38VQXBpUnVBdTBTbkE) [.PDF] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=0B6i3fGvW_38VRVBENUxveFg1U1k)

I will not be providing hints publicly for this quiz, but you can ask me up to 10 hints for melodies of your choice. Also, there is yet again a theme to this quiz. I won't award any points for correctly guessing the theme, but knowing it may help you figure out the melodies.

Also, because I posted this a day late, you'll have one extra day to send me your guesses.

Post by: Trasdegi on November 07, 2017, 10:10:57 PM
Alright, time for my second guess-that-melody quiz! This quiz is 10 melodies long, who are sorted randomly, because I really have no idea when it comes to judging difficulty, and who doesn't follow any theme. However, they all should be guessable.

[MID] (http://bit.ly/2zmirst)[MUS] (http://bit.ly/2hcMybi)[PDF] (http://bit.ly/2zmjPvi)[MSCZ] (http://bit.ly/2hkNZIi)[Dropbox Folder] (http://bit.ly/2jchxsg)

Because I'm lazy, I'll just quote dekka:
Quote from: Dekkadeci on August 26, 2017, 12:54:55 PMThe MUS is readable in Finale, including Finale Notepad. The MSCZ is readable in Musescore. All other files are based on the original MSCZ, not the MUS--this explains why the PDF doesn't look like the MUS.
The MUS may display and/or play back bugged. The MSCZ, MIDI, and PDF shouldn't.

You will have until Sunday, 7:00 A.M. forum default time to PM me your guesses.

I might release hints for unguessed melodies later

I will provide a scoreboard with the melodies ranked from most-guessed to less-guessed. Obviously, I can't provide it now.

Good luck!

This quiz was yet again quite challenging, so of course the scores were low lol. I did not count the EX melodies as actual melodies since I intentionally made them as difficult as I could by only providing hard-to-hear background parts. Also, the theme for this quiz was music history (page 1: classical influences; page 2: jazz influences; page 3: rock influences; page 4: pop influences). The EX section did not have a theme.

I'll give some hints for the to last ones:

#1: From Pokémon. Kinda surprises me, but I maybe transposed m4-5-8-9 incorrectly (it was hard to tell which instrument had the melody there)

#3: Also from Pokémon, but from a far less played game (#1's game has been sold twice more in the first week than #3's game lifetime) so it doesn't really surprise me.

MSF ROUND 13(?) (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/7sqa01512uz2six/AAAZl2m30jBsawrE2K-VMP5Xa?dl=0)

There are 4 Mario melodies in this quiz. Kirby, Pokémon, and Zelda are all represented at least once. No other series besides those four may be repeated.

Good luck.

Yeah, lol.



Anyway, it's time for answers! 6 people have submitted guesses this time.

#1 - 0/6
"Driftveil Drawbridge" - Pokémon Black/White


Timestamp: 1:14 - 1:31


I was a bit surprised than no one guessed this, but maybe my transcription of what's the melody is at fault, so sorry if you didn't found it because of that.

#2 - 1/6
"Sogno di Volare - Title screen" - Civilization VI


Timestamp: 0:18 - 0:48

Thank you Yug_Guy for finding this one, one of my favourite title screen theme ever. This one wasn't nintendo, but was vgm.

#3 - 0/6
"Kyurem's Battle of Destiny " - Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity


Timestamp: 0:28 - 0:44

Idk why but it's hard to find a good quality rip of this one on youtube. And yes, I put Gti in this quiz.

#4 - 3/6
"Main Menu/Map" - Hotel Mario


Timestamp: 0:12 - 0:24

This one is two times in the submissions, and yet only half of you found it. The section I picked probably didn't help.

Found by: mastersuperfan, WaluigiTime64, Static

#5 - 1/6
"Raymond Shields ~ Joking Motive" - Gyakuten Kenji 2


Timestamp: 0:51 - 1:06

Maybe combining a (officially) japan-only game not from the four big nintendo franchises with an obscure section wasn't the best idea.

Found by: mastersuperfan

[close]

#6 - 1/6
"Caves" - Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia


Timestamp: 0:32 - 0:48

If you play this game, you probably would remember this one, because you hear it at sooo much places...

Found by: Latios212

#7 - 2/6
"Toad's Theme" - Luigi's Mansion


I picked this one because it's an "easy"-but-not-obvious mario one.

#8 - 1/6
"Activity Log" - Nintendo 3DS

And here's the facepalm one. This one is Nintendo but isn't vgm.Yes, 2 in reverse!

#9 - 3/6
"The Wind is Blowing at Cavi Cape" - Mario & Luigi Bowser's Inside Story

For this one, I picked the best part IMO. Glad others remembered it, too.

#10 - 1/6
"Victory Road" - Pokémon HeartGold/SoulSilver


Timestamp: 0:37 - 0:44

Yes, this is the victory road theme than no one remembers. And more, this section doesn't even exists in the original games.

"Vs. Rayquaza" / "Defy the Legends" - [MUL] Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red & Blue Rescue Team

Timestamp: 0:45 - 0:53

Was definitely not intended to be a hard Pokémon melody, especially since it's appeared in three different PMD games (Explorers (https://youtu.be/VcBQ_vLbtw4) and PSMD (https://youtu.be/ZDXum0RO-ek) as well). Maybe Dialga's theme is just too popular...

Also a pretty famous one. Smash 4 helps. (https://youtu.be/uo6zx2OU9Zo) Wonder how differently this might have turned out if I'd picked one of the later melodies...

No, this is not from Mario Kart.

Quote from: FlamezofDeathive never played mario kart 7 or 8
but 9 sounds like it's probably from there

Quote from: Maelstromrandom guess but is 9 cheese land

Quote from: Dekkadeci on November 12, 2017, 12:45:49 PM#9 sounds like a Mario Kart theme for some reason--maybe a snow/winter course?

"Off into Space" - [NDS] Kirby Mass Attack

Timestamp: 1:05 - 1:12

Picked intentionally because of its striking similarity to a much more famous piece of video game music... (https://youtu.be/xmcuuWMDW7c)

Quote from: FlamezofDeath3 is the zelda thing

Quote from: ThatHiddenCharacter3 is most definitely a Zelda thing

Quote from: InsigTurtlei can't find the variant that 3 is thoguh
Quote from: InsigTurtlehmmmm
oh so it was just a bamboozle inclusion

QuoteStatic: #3 is death mountain from lttp

"Outer Space" - [Wii] Super Paper Mario

Timestamp: 0:09 - 0:16

I was under the impression that this track was super underrated, but it looks like I've been proven wrong.

If anything, this actually reminds me of music from the Fire Emblem Tellius Saga (Path of Radiance + Radiant Dawn)... or even vaguely of Pokémon Mystery Dungeon...

Quote from: ThatHiddenCharacterYaaaaaaay
4 is the space theme thing from Super Paper Mario!

I'll probably have a quiz up this Saturday (If I can think 4 more melodies fitting my theme between studying for finals week and science bowl, that is). We have spring break next week, so I should definitely be able to get it done by Tuesday at the latest.

Alright, I finally stopped procrastinating and found a few more things that had grace notes/mordents/trills in them... (also my 1.5 hour flight was delayed by 3.5 hours yesterday, so that sucked...)

Since this is my first quiz, I don't really have much to gauge by, but I think this should probably be on the easy side. Also, please forgive any bad spelling of accidentals (and any incorrect grace note durations; I tried to make them as precise as possible, but short notes are hard to count right :/ )

Okay, time for answers!

I'm probably not gonna do a theme (or at least such a time consuming one) for a while at least :P

Melody 1 (3/8)
"Ghirahim Battle" - [Wii] The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword
Timestamp: 0:50–0:56
Guessed by: ThatHiddenCharacter, NocturneOfShadow, somethingminor
[close]

Melody 2 (0/8)
"Ready to (Mario) Party" - [Wii] Mario Party 9
Timestamp: 0:38–0:46
Guessed by:

This is where I realized I could make a theme. And hence, it got easier from here :P
[close]

Melody 3 (0/8)
"Bunny Chasing" - [Wii] Super Mario Galaxy
Timestamp: 0:49–0:52
Guessed by:

rip.
[close]

Melody 4 (3/8)
"Bicycle" - [NDS] Pokémon Diamond/Pearl/Platinum
Timestamp: 0:50–0:56
Guessed by: mastersuperfan, Latios212, dajwxp

Funny—this has the exact same timestamp as Melody 1!
[close]

Melody 5 (6/8)
Quote from: Latios212let's see how hard I facedesk after results come out
"Eine Kleine Nachtmusik" - [MUL]
Timestamp: 0:34–0:37
Guessed by: mastersuperfan, ThatHiddenCharacter, NocturneOfShadow, somethingminor, dajwxp, Dekkadeci

Okay, I know this one was a stretch. I was desperate for another melody that fit the theme, and I was already late for posting.

The phrase I selected doesn't exist verbatim in any video games as far as I know, but it's pretty well known...


Sorry for the confusion.
[close]

Melody 6 (5/8)
"Azalea Town" - [GBC] Pokémon Gold/Silver/Crystal
Timestamp: 0:36–0:40
Guessed by: mastersuperfan, Latios212, NocturneOfShadow, somethingminor, dajwxp

I referenced the HGSS version because the grace notes are cleaner. Not too much difference, though.
[close]

Melody 7 (5/8)
"Doki Doki Literature Club! (Main Theme)" - [PC] Doki Doki Literature Club!
Timestamp: 1:14–1:18
Guessed by: mastersuperfan, Latios212, NocturneOfShadow, somethingminor, Static

This phrase appears in many of the songs in the game, so I accepted them all.
[close]

Melody 8 (3/8)
"Rainbow Road" - [Wii] Mario Kart Wii
Timestamp: 0:25–0:29
Guessed by: mastersuperfan, Latios212, Dekkadeci

I intentionally started in a weird spot and continued in a part where another melody ran on top of it :P
[close]

Melody 9 (6/8)
"Snowball Park" - [WiiU] Super Mario 3D World
Timestamp: 0:03–0:09
Guessed by: mastersuperfan, Latios212, ThatHiddenCharacter, NocturneOfShadow, somethingminor, Static

Also appeared in Super Mario 3D Land.

Quote from: FlamezofDeath on March 12, 2018, 01:21:01 PMThe phrase I selected doesn't exist verbatim in any video games as far as I know

I intended to admit that putting it in the quiz was foul play because I picked the 5th and 6th measures of the song, but the first game only contained measures 1-4 and the second game remixed everything.

I underestimated how long it would take me to find the melodies I wanted due to my lack of prior experience... I'll know better next time and plan better. Totally my mistake; I'm sorry.

I said earlier that I would be done, that I ran out of ideas... But of course I eventually ran into melodies I thought would be fun to quiz people on, so here I am back again with more. This time it's a healthy mix of melodies and basslines, at the usual Static-brand difficulty.

For some reason, enabling human playback crashes Finale on this file and this file only, so be sure to actually look at the sheet instead of just listening so you can see all those trills, glissandi, and tempo changes.

Antinomy of Common Flowers' OST hasn't come out yet I don't think (very soon though), so I haven't bothered to take a listen, besides the final boss theme and a few other songs (Sleep Sheep Parade is good).

I am very upset over the Odyssey one though... I could've won with that...

Also you gave me the right score, but forgot to mention that I also got #20.

Static's Miscellaneous Melody Quiz XVIII (Round 115)
[Folder of Stuff] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=1CD6rj8s9UqYLgro035yQG0IWHZnGPpZV)

This time, the theme is Mario series melodies only. Most of the songs I chose I think are pretty tough, but none of the games are particularly obscure (no Mario Kart Arcade GP or Mario Teaches Typing or anything like that). Also, melodies 13 and 17 are basslines.

Due to the nature of this quiz, I will not be providing any other hints.

No. It didn't remix Gourmet Race. The part I used was a Super Star motif used in multiple songs in the game. It's most famous rendition was in Gourmet Race, but it was not the "original". That's the reason I used it, because most people don't realize that.

Fair--I hear stuff that sounds like the Kirby Super Star ending victory tune multiple times in that game, notably before the ending of Milky Way Wishes (possibly its most famous rendition, just before the credits).

Quote from: StaticYou can keep guessing if you'd like, there's no penalty for wrong answers.

I should've listened to your advice, because I've been listening to the Street Fighter Jazzy NYC '99 song nonstop the last few days and I can't believe I didn't get that.

Unrelated note, viewing YouTube videos are total wank, it's impossible to see the video, go to a certain section of the video or right click to go to the official YouTube link.

ShyYoshiGuy, do you have your quiz in any form other than .mp3? Needing to manually count melodies at best isn't that pleasant.

Also, ThatHiddenCharacter, when are you releasing your answers?
Title: Re: The NSM Guess-That-Melody Quiz!

There're 20 melodies. Also, what do you mean?

I mean that, since your quiz is in the form of a sound file only, I need to manually count each melody to find out its label/number. I might miscount and accidentally think the 17th melody is the 16th melody instead, for example.

Right now.

Unfortunately, it would appear I did not save people's correct guesses anywhere, and since most people guessed through discord, it would really be unrealistic to try and find them this many months later. That being said, I'll still gladly give the answers for anyone who's still curious.

So, in case you didn't notice, there was a bit of a theme to this quiz. I spoopified normally cheery songs for halloween! Anyway, let's get on with it, shall we?

Melody 1

Gourmet Race from Kirby Super Star! Yup, started off with something iconic, a way of easing you into the oddities of the quiz.
[close]

Melody 2

March Ahead from Paper Mario! Not nearly as famous as Gourmet Race, but a fairly memorable ditty nonetheless.
[close]

Melody 3

Groose's Theme from Skyward Sword! Honestly, there were barely any changes to make this one minor, such a, uh... jazzy(?) piece.
[close]

Melody 4

Snowdin from Undertale! You know I had to slip a little Toby Fox in there.
[close]

Melody 5

Bonus Room Blitz from Donkey Kong Country! I mean, it was so upbeat I just had to make it slow and depressing.
[close]

Melody 6

Snow Mountain from Super Mario 64! This one may have been a bit difficult due to the slow tempo in combination with the really long notes.
[close]

Melody 6

Pop Star from Kirby 64! Another example of being so positive, it had to be made depressing.
[close]

Melody 6

Battle Theme from Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door! Two Paper Mario songs in one quiz? I really didn't plan this out well...
[close]

Melody 9

Shop from The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time! This actually makes one heck of a boss theme when it's faster.
[close]

Melody 10

The Wrong Number Song from Undertale! This is somehow the most depressing of all the melodies here. Don't know how, don't know why, but I think I'm gonna keep my distance from it just to be safe.
[close]

Well, there you go. Sorry for the wait. I had forgotten about this, and by the time I remembered it was at the point where if someone still wanted the answers, they could ask and I would give them, but it was too late to just randomly post them without someone asking first.

I've decided that the Guess That Melody Sound Byte will be over on March 1, three weeks after I posted it. If you plan on participating (or participating further), there's a little over a week left. I plan on making the next files this Saturday to be posted on March 2, so I'd love to hear some feedback. Were the files too short? Were the files too long? Was everything really obscure? Was most everything overly obvious? Do you think I should only send the 20 files and give up stringing them together? I'd love to hear it.

How everyone did!
By song (some answers are in here as well)
#1: Dekkadeci, Latios212, mastersuperfan
I honestly expected that.
#2: Latios212, mastersuperfan
I just love that song. I'm glad the majority got it.
#3: No one
Hmm... well, I added Fire Emblem to introduce variety, but I guess that backfired.
#4: Latios212, mastersuperfan
Yoshi!
#5: No one
Aw... that was my first piano piece I worked on ever. (Thank you, Oli btw)
#6: Dekkadeci, Latios212, mastersuperfan
Everyone just loves a little Mario Kart.
#7: Dekkadeci, Latios212, mastersuperfan
Yeah, that stresses me out every time it is played. I'm honestly not surprised.
#8: Latios212, mastersuperfan
Well, when you've only made it through five dungeons, their songs implant themselves in your head.
#9: Latios212
A song with a 10-second loop, I love it so much. I'm happy at least one person got it.
#10: Latios212, mastersuperfan
I was stuck on that level a lot, so easy to fall off. Maybe you were too, idk.
#11: mastersuperfan
Well, at least the only two recognized it, but couldn't place a name. That game is already irrelevant, lol.
#12: No one
Wha? Wha? It's Chef! Rip G&WG.
#13: mastersuperfan
I've personally never played Undertale, but at least I know more about it than Fire Emblem.
#14: No one
Wow, the spread of answers on this one. In hindsight, this one was too hard.
#15: No one
Not surprised, but this was my favorite game growing up, so it had to be somewhere.
#16: Dekkadeci, Latios212, mastersuperfan
Had literally never heard this song before, I guess you had tho.
#17: Dekkadeci, Latios212, mastersuperfan
Not surprised. That's all I have to say.
#18: No one
I know a certain someone that might have had something to say about this.
#19: No one
Aw man! Really? I played Sonic 3 on WiiVC a lot.
#20: Latios212, mastersuperfan
Felt like this was a good end to the quiz. It's also one second longer for funsies.
[close]
By guesser
Dekkadeci: 1, 6, 7, 16, 17
Latios212: 1, 2, 4, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 16, 17, 20
mastersuperfan: 1, 2, 4, 6, 7, 8, 10, 11, 13, 16, 17, 20

I'm guessing Dekkadeci's favorite digits are 1, 6, and 7.
Congratulations, mastersuperfan! Latios, so close!

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.

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.

Post by: Dekkadeci on March 01, 2019, 11:46:00 PM
The old way we used was to transcribe melodies (or, occasionally, basslines or even chord progressions) from video game themes (very occasionally, even from upcoming games). Some people drew upon existing NinSheetMusic transcriptions; I think most of our melodies were transcribed by ear.
Title: Re: The NSM Guess-That-Melody Quiz!
Post by: Libera on March 02, 2019, 05:02:35 AM
Let's see how this turns out then.  In the folder are ten melodies, all from final boss themes and in no particular order (I randomly generated some permutation of how I originally thought of them to avoid any internal bias).  Forum PM guesses to me (it'll be easier for me to collate them at the end that way) and I'll probably post the results in 1-2 weeks.

Folder of stuff (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/ax401jxsy2n5qyv/AAAhjZJLjHCs1gOLLF3-hJQza?dl=0)

Yes.  It's obviously easier for me if you PM all of your answers in one go, but there's nothing really wrong with doing them separately over a longer period of time.  I will, however, only accept the first guess for any particular melody, so as to avoid encouraging guessing lots of times on the same melody.

[Here we go....] (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/5wq36tjenxoqk13/AABQnasAt19Jd5NK-016GSYfa?dl=1)

Good Luck All!

Two Things about how my Melody Quizzes and mine only (unless others adopt it) will work. This time, I'll allow Discord, but you'll still need to be a Forum Member. Once you say you have finished your guesses on Discord, I'll hand you a receipt via Forum PM for you to send back in a quote so I can put it in the Label.

Second thing, this was in play during Round 127, but I never mentioned it. You are allowed to guess the game and song independently of each other, but you're still only allowed one guess. This gets a little confusing sometimes, so lemme explain. If you're totally confident in your guess of both the game and song, you can answer at the same time. "12. Super Mario 64 - Dire, Dire Docks". If you're unsure of the song, but you're at least pretty sure of the game, you can just ask if that's the correct game first before scavenging through the OST to find it. "12. Super Mario 64". BUT, this does not yet count as a full response, and if you're wrong, you may not guess again for that Melody. If this is confusing to you, feel free to ask questions.

Yeah you can't stop us but you could "disqualify" us and I'd rather play by the rules.

Ok
Title: Re: The NSM Guess-That-Melody Quiz!
Post by: Libera on March 04, 2019, 10:02:00 AM
First of all, thanks to those who have submitted answers so far.  I've decided to publish the answers next Sunday (I'd do it on Saturday but I'll be quite busy that day) so for anyone who still wants to have a go at it, you have six days.  There's still six melodies that haven't been guessed yet, including the one that I thought would be the easiest...  But I guess popularity of the game doesn't directly translate into the melody being easier to guess.

tl;dr Results will be posted on Sunday 10th March.
Title: Re: The NSM Guess-That-Melody Quiz!
Post by: Libera on March 10, 2019, 03:35:30 AM
As promised, here are the answers/results!  There were four people who took part, but I think there were probably others who looked and just didn't recognise any of them.  I only picked stuff that I actually knew, which probably lead to it being quite obscure...  Anyway, now for the answers!

Melody I
Ultimate Koopa - Mario 64 (0:21 -0:35)
Guesses correct: 2/4
I thought this was probably the second easiest on the list after II, and I was glad to see that half of the participants got it.
[close]

Melody II
Battle at the Summit! - Pokemon Sun and Moon (0:55 -1:08)
Guesses correct: 2/4
In my opinion this was the easiest one on the list, a well known game series matched with an easily recognisable tune so I expected more to get it, but perhaps the S/M OST isn't all that well known.
[close]

Melody III
Lucia - Nights of Azure 2: Bride of the New Moon (0:58 -1:09)
Guesses correct: 0/4
Easily the hardest on the list and I fully expected no one to get it.  I included it in the off chance that there was someone who could get it (and because its a cool song).
[close]

Melody IV
Shadowlord - NieR (0:00 -0:17)
Guesses correct: 1/4
The only one here that I'd already arranged, so getting the melody was a simple copy and paste.  Glad to see someone got it.
[close]

Melody V
Battle with Providence - Bravely Second: End Layer (0:19 -0:30)
Guesses correct: 0/4
It was either this or something from Serpent Devouring the Horizon, but I figured this had a more easily recognisable melody.  Either way, no one got it.
[close]

Melody VI
The Extreme - Final Fantasy VIII (0:51 -1:07)
Guesses correct: 0/4
I guess people don't like/know FFVIII here, as I felt like I picked a pretty easy section for this piece.
[close]

Melody VII
Flight of the Bamboo Cutter ~ Lunatic Princess - Touhou 8: Imperishable Night (0:00 -0:16)
Guesses correct: 1/4
This one was really easy if you know Touhou at all.  An extremely recognisable melody.  I'd say this was the third easiest on the quiz, only losing out to first and second place because of Touhou's relative obscurity.
[close]

Melody VIII
The Last - The Wish Punished - Mega Man Zero 2 (0:13 -0:27)
Guesses correct: 1/4
I wasn't really sure how this would go down since I'm not really sure about Mega Man Zero's popularity, but I'm glad someone got it!
[close]

Melody IX
Fire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War - Versus Julius (0:00 -0:10 [although it pretty much does this for the whole piece])
Guesses correct: 0/4
It wouldn't really be a quiz by me if there wasn't a Fire Emblem track in here somewhere.  I decided to stay away from the newer games because I thought that would be too easy, but on retrospect that was probably a bad idea considering how the rest of the quiz turned out.
[close]

Melody X
Ikaruga - The Stone Like (0:00 -0:13)
Guesses correct: 0/4
I'm sad that no one knows Ikaruga, but fair enough.
[close]

And now the results...

The winner is...
mastersuperfan !!!
with 3/10 (II, IV and VII) correct guesses.  Nice work!

The other participants were:
Dudeman with 2/10 (I and VIII) correct guesses,
Splatoon Inkling with 1/10 (I) correct guesses
and Latios212 with 1/10 (II) correct guesses.
[close]

Thanks to everyone who took part, and if I do another one I'll try to make it easier...

Post by: Bobbythekid21 on March 10, 2019, 07:15:38 AM
Eh, yeah I got the first one but I never submitted it. I also don't feel so bad about not knowing the other ones. I've never heard of most of them and I've only played Super Mario 64.

Post by: Libera on March 12, 2019, 02:18:44 PM
What's that?  You all really wanted another melody quiz?  Well worry not, for I am here to appease you.

Libera's Melody Quiz II (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/uk59ko6uioshcmf/AADUav9wqxArOIs-GgvJlOHRa?dl=0)

The theme this time is games from 2010-2019, i.e. this decade.  I've tried to make the selection a little bit easier than last time, but there are still a few tricky ones in there I think.

I'll probably give out results in 1-2 weeks, just like last time.
Title: Re: The NSM Guess-That-Melody Quiz!
Post by: Splatoon Inkling on March 12, 2019, 02:33:14 PM
I don't even have final fantasy or really any Pokémon games, so I only know of Mario 64.
Title: Re: The NSM Guess-That-Melody Quiz!
Post by: Libera on March 15, 2019, 05:10:15 PM
I'll be giving out the results on Sunday, so if anyone still wants to submit answers you have two days to do so.  (There are still six melodies which still have yet to be guessed, so I guess that I failed to make it easier.)
Title: Re: The NSM Guess-That-Melody Quiz!
Post by: Libera on March 17, 2019, 06:11:14 AM
Gather around, I come bearing the results!  We had six participants, but still six of the melodies weren't guessed.

Melody I
FINAL FANTASY XIII-2 - Wishes - Final Fantasy XIII-2 (0:00 -0:23)
Guesses correct: 0/6
[close]

Melody II
The Last General - Hyper Light Drifter (0:00 - 0:19)
Guesses correct: 0/6
[close]

Melody III
Rainbow Road - Mario Kart 8 (0:06 -0:17)
Guesses correct: 5/6
I picked one game that I'd never played before / heard the music and hey look basically everyone got it.
[close]

Melody IV
Road Taken - Fire Emblem Fates (0:30 -0:40)
Guesses correct: 2/6
After no one got my previous FE piece I picked a more well known piece from a more recent game and I guess that worked out a bit better.
[close]

Melody V
Nameless Song - Dark Souls (0:00 -0:21)
Guesses correct: 0/6
Unlike some of the other 0/6 melodies, this one was meant to be really easy...
[close]

Melody VI
Don't Think Twice - Kingdom Hearts III (1:52 -2:03)
Guesses correct: 0/6
I wanted to include something from a 2019 game on here and this was the game that I thought would be the easiest.  Still maybe I should have just gone with the chorus instead.
[close]

Melody VII
McLarty Party People - Super Meat Boy (0:16 -0:31)
Guesses correct: 0/6
[close]

Melody VIII
Coalescence - Risk of Rain (0:02 -0:24)
Guesses correct: 1/6
Pretty glad to see someone get this.
[close]

Melody IX
Decisive Battle I - Octopath Traveler (0:38 -0:50)
Guesses correct: 2/6
[close]

Melody X
A Beautiful Song - NieR: Automata (0:19 -0:31)
Guesses correct: 0/6
NieR worked last time but it's waaaaay more popular sequel didn't?
[close]

And now the results...

The winner is...
Latios212 !!!
with 3/10 (III, IV and IX) correct guesses.  Three times better than the last one!

The other participants were:
mastersuperfan with 2/10 (III, IV) correct guesses.
Static with 2/10 (III, IX) correct guesses,
Splatoon Inkling with 1/10 (III) correct guesses,
Dekkadeci with 1/10 (III) correct guesses
and Bobbythekid21 with 1/10 (VIII) correct guesses.

Special mention to Bobbythekid21 for being the only person to get one that no one else did.
[close]

Thanks again to everyone who took part.  I said before that I'd try to make the next one easier and maybe I might actually succeed with the that one.

How everyone did!
By song (some answers are in here as well)
#1: Dekkadeci, Libera, mastersuperfan, ThatHiddenCharacter, Splatoon Inkling, Latios212, Bobbythekid21
This is the only one everyone got right. Pretty popular song, I must say.
#2: Dekkadeci, mastersuperfan, Splatoon Inkling, Latios212, Bobbythekid21
I only know this song exists because of Smooth McGroove. Now I really love it. Oh yes, many answers for this song.
#3: Libera, mastersuperfan, ThatHiddenCharacter, Latios212
The second song I learned to play on piano. Still don't know how to play this one either.
#4: mastersuperfan, ThatHiddenCharacter, Latios212
The first one where the majority didn't get it right. I didn't know this one either, so yeah.
#5: mastersuperfan, ThatHiddenCharacter, Splatoon Inkling, Latios212, Bobbythekid21
Well, everyone who got more than two right got this one right. This is about the only original song from this game.
#6: ThatHiddenCharacter
Well, Magnus, this one was in here for you. Glad you got it.
#7: mastersuperfan, ThatHiddenCharacter, Latios212
Only the fierce competitors got this one right. Why do I feel like everybody always gets the Kirby one correct?
#8: Nobody
??? Really? This was my favorite Mario Party 8 board. Steven, you're gonna need to tell me which Mario Party games you've played.
#9: Nobody
Well, at least Splatoon Inkling had the courage to get the game right. To be fair, I probably would only get the game right.
#10: mastersuperfan, Latios212
This is about how far I've gotten in Explorers of Sky. I'll probably need to get to the rest of the game at some point.
#11: mastersuperfan, ThatHiddenCharacter, Latios212
Oh, nice. Our three top competitors. doo doo, do do doo
#12: mastersuperfan
Good job, MSF. No one else knew that one. I didn't either.
#13: ThatHiddenCharacter
That was in there for you, too. Are you offended everyone thinks this sounds like Mario Kart 8?
#14: mastersuperfan, Splatoon Inkling, Latios212, Bobbythekid21
I didn't like this minigame as much as the others, but I love its theme.
#15: mastersuperfan, ThatHiddenCharacter, Latios212
Never played this game. Though it seems like a game I would play, huh? Good job, MSF, THC, and Latios.
#16: ThatHiddenCharacter
Really? The entire song loops in just under 2 seconds, so. I played Balloon Fight a ton when I first got NSO.
#17: Nobody
The third song no one got. Fine, no more G&WG for a while.
#18: mastersuperfan, ThatHiddenCharacter, Latios212
So I guess none of LGPE's OST is original? Note to self: No more Let's Go.
#19: Latios212
Thank you, Latios. Such a good beginning of a song deserves recognition. The rest of the song, I couldn't care less.
#20: ThatHiddenCharacter, Bobbythekid21
Is it just a tradition now to end with a game over theme? I guess you'll have to wait and see.
[close]
By guesser
Dekkadeci: 1, 2
Libera: 1, 3
mastersuperfan: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 10, 11, 12, 14, 15, 18
ThatHiddenCharacter: 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 11, 13, 15, 16, 18, 20
Splatoon Inkling: 1, 2, 5, 14
Latios212: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 7, 10, 11, 14, 15, 18, 19
Bobbythekid21: 1, 2, 5, 14, 20

Yep, the tie is still intact. 12 points, wow.

Ah I recognised that one as Lavender Town but it sounded nothing like the original nor any of the other remixes so I just assumed it was something else using the tune.  I completely forgot about Let's Go.

Welp, I made another one. This one's a little different. The first letter of each of the song titles spell something. Ooo... interesting. Due to the nature of this quiz, I will not tell you the correct answer if you're wrong. But if you get it right, but your answer isn't exactly what I have written down, I'll correct you. For example, if you had the hypothetical correct answer "12. Jolly Roger Bay - Super Mario 64" and I respond with "12. Dire Dire Docks - Super Mario 64", you'll know your answer is correct. There is a general sense of the Melodies getting harder as you go, but it's not too precise. Geez, some of those letters were hard to find melodies for.

ShyYoshiGuy's Third Guess That Melody! (Round CXXX)
[So excited....] (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/dojhh6r5mtlwwx6/AADwoa-Q_moIfAOSqyiqxE43a?dl=1)

Ok, so that receipt idea was inherently flawed. Instead, I'll make a spreadsheet. So this means NON-FORUM MEMBERS may participate. Not that I think necessarily anyone will, but it's nice to give people the option.

Three ways to submit answers this time 'round:

1. Forum PM, as usual. ShyYoshiGuy
2. Discord DM. ShyYoshiGuy#2988
3. Email. shyyoshiguy@gmail.com (I've had this email address for a while, but no one's emailed me.) For anyone that takes this option, please put "Melody" in the subject line.

Ends: April 12th
Next Starts: April 13th
(I already have the next one prepared, but I anticipate I'll be busy, so I'll just keep it saved up.)

And, uh, well, some letters were harder to find than others. I didn't choose as good of songs, sorry. RIP BrawlBRSTMs3 X, basically none of my links work now. These are harder to make now now that that channel is done for. Anyways, I shouldn't have waited so long to post these answers.

Static's Miscellaneous Melody Quiz XXV (Round 134)
[Folder of Stuff] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=1qvl87GpBy6Q43p1nv0czvcxE-uJi8Wk_)

This time around, the theme is "The Best & The Worst". It should be self-explanatory: half the songs are from widely-liked games in their respective genre, and the other half are from widely-disliked games in their respective genre.

For this round, I will be providing one hint per melody. I'll answer just about anything except for specific game series and game.

This is kinda unannounced, I know, but here's my 12th Guess-The-Song Quiz:
[PDF] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=1UcN4EddnxyW4WK5x5i55Z4l8Y8kDzEoG) | [MIDI] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=1s38-Pl07pLigGO5AbAkSVKJD2ubt3-41) | [MUS] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=18mqDXtMgVwNePGpZHct52BRqg2-SEx2Z) | [MSCZ] (https://drive.google.com/open?id=10KX5oQ2Vz4DL54cxOpb1ns_iksTDQItQ)

The MUS is readable in Finale, including Finale Notepad. The MSCZ is readable in Musescore. All other files are based on the original MSCZ, not the MUS--this explains why the PDF doesn't look like the MUS.
The MUS may display and/or play back bugged. The MSCZ, MIDI, and PDF shouldn't.

This quiz shouldn't be too difficult, but don't feel too bad if you only get one or two! PM away!

I'll be accepting answers for this quiz as PMs for at least a month and up to 2 months. I don't have any Discord accounts, though, so I can't be reached through Discord. Please PM me answers on the NinSheetMusic forums instead!

Some guidelines for answering, how the melodies are transcribed, and what counts as a correct answer--oh yeah, and some hints right off the bat:

Post by: Dekkadeci on August 19, 2019, 10:48:14 PM
It's been a month already, and I haven't received any new guesses in a long while, so here are the answers to my latest quiz:

#1
"Sogno di Volare", from Civilization VI, used as the main theme
Timestamp: 0:18

This is a rare video game theme that I got hooked on by listening to transcriptions of it first. Heck, I can even tank the lyrics! ...Although I think Leonardo da Vinci is rolling in his grave because of how hard the good people at Civilization VI appropriated his writings for this song's lyrics.

#2
"Thwomp Desert", from Mario Kart Wii, used as a battle stage theme
Timestamp: 0:15

Yeah, I mainly took this excerpt from FireArrow's transcription of this theme. I personally think these measures are in 6/8 time instead of 12/8 time, but I didn't really want to have to nail the ornaments in the melody by ear.

This theme is quite fun to listen to, IMO, partially because of the way it screws with the meter (I'm convinced that the beginning measures are in 3/4 time).

#3
"Battlefield 1942 Theme"/"Battlefield 1942 Title Theme", from Battlefield 1942, used as the title theme
Timestamp: 0:33

I like this theme. I've heard it's iconic. I thought at least one of you would be familiar with this theme from a computer game. Seems like I was wrong. ...Maybe I would have had better luck if I had transcribed the section at 0:00 instead?

#4
"La Follia d'Amore", from Kirby Star Allies, used as Hyness's Phase 2 boss theme
Timestamp: 0:12

Those of you who have taken my previous Guess-That-Song Quizzes know I like throwing in Kirby themes a lot, and I made sure I stuck to just one Kirby theme this round. This is from the latest Kirby game, and it's quite possibly the most famous theme in the entire game (yes, even after all the DLC was released). I think I also transcribed the most famous motif for this quiz, too.

On this quip I received among the guesses:
Quote from: mastersuperfan on July 19, 2019, 11:37:32 PMI think I've heard #4 before... it sounds like some sort of danger/panic theme from an RPG, perhaps?
Well, the boss definitely looks like he's panicking all fight.

#5
"Thrash Machine", from Deltarune, used as background music
Timestamp: 0:00

I guess we do know our Deltarune more than we know the majority of other new video games. This is a fairly strong remix of a recurring theme in this game, and someone did recognize it.

#6
"You Will Recall Our Names", from Xenoblade Chronicles 2, used as a battle theme
Timestamp: 0:43

Gosh, Xenoblade Chronicles 2 battle music is fun overall (at least before you hit the slower orchestral boss themes with choirs). This is one of my favourites, and even me kinda chickening out and transcribing an excerpt that was easier to transcribe instead of a more iconic passage didn't prevent this from being guessed correctly.

#7
"Focus", from Super Hexagon, used as a level theme
Timestamp: 0:00

...OK, so it wasn't composed for Super Hexagon, but if you know this song, it's probably from this game.

Fittingly for its origin as electronic music, it's quite minimalistic compared to the other themes in this quiz.

#8
"Battle: The Darkest Lord"/"Battle (Ultra Demon Lord)", from Miitopia, used as the Phase 1 final boss theme
Timestamp: 0:13

I've heard this theme is absurdly popular and highly requested for being from a video game whose concept elicits laughs. It even made its way into Super Smash Bros. Ultimate unscathed!

...Alright, I admit it, I like the motif I transcribed, and that's why it's in this quiz.

#9
"X vs. Zero", from Mega Man X5, used as the boss theme when X and Zero fight each other
Timestamp: 0:47

Haha, this part sounds an awful lot like the Game of Thrones theme.

...Here I go, thinking this is one of the most famous Mega Man themes we haven't previously covered in a Guess-That-Song Quiz, and nobody gets it. Admittedly, maybe all the biggest Mega Man music fans have moved on to the NinSheetMusic Discord instead...or maybe this theme is just absurdly popular among metal remixers?

This theme is in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate unchanged, though, so I don't think it's just the metal remixers who like this a lot...

#10
"Jelly Level", from Candy Crush Saga, used as a stage theme
Timestamp: 0:00

Yeah, I ditched all the ornamentation in my transcription.

I happened to transcribe the ENTIRE theme for this quiz. This is the first time I've ever done this for a Guess-That-Song Quiz. Admittedly, I suspected that Candy Crush Saga was one of those video games that everyone has played but nobody has ever played with the sound on, and you all proved me one step closer to being correct.

...Yup, the sub-theme of this quiz was music from computer games and mobile games, and I tried to make sure that either the song or the game was inordinately famous before putting it in this quiz.

Post by: Trasdegi on January 05, 2020, 03:09:42 AM
Since I've only received a single guess, I've decided to post a handful of hints:

-#1 is the only one you can hear on a nintendo system.
-My bad, but #4 is actually in 12/8.
-Two of them are from two different anime from the same studio and director, who's known for its somewhat unique art style.
-One of them is from a rather violent concert band piece, of which I took the quitest part (on purpose).
-One of them is from a game OST which mainly is ambient music. I took one of the few melodies there were.
-From what I've been told, one of them has already been used before. It's the only one that has been guessed up to now. It's also the one and only bassline in this quiz.

In this folder, you'll find the same quiz, but the melodies are now put in a context: a second instrument's line, a bassline, chords, a longer section... It should make things easier.

So, multiple weeks after, I decided to close my quiz, shamelessly ripping msf's formating :)

Trasdegi's Melody Quiz #5 – Answers and Results!

#1 (1/1)
"Quietus" – [NDS] 9 Hours, 9 Persons, 9 Doors

Timestamp: 1:07–1:17

I was expecting more people to find this one, as it's the only one you can hear on a nintendo system...

"Signum Malum" – [TV] Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica

Timestamp: 0:00–0:15

In #5.1, I replaced it with a better-know rendition of the same melody, with more accompaniment to transcribe:

"Sis Puella Magica!" – [TV] Mahou Shoujo Madoka Magica

Timestamp: 0:12–0:22

If you haven't already: go watch this. It's only 12 episodes, and one of the best things I ever watched in my life.

"Homicide" / "Ikoroshia" – [MUL] Super Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Despair

"The Voyage" / "Main Theme" – [PC] Europa Universalis IV

Timestamp: 2:26–3:00

This is the kind of game that can be dangerous with me: I bought it in the middle of the winter vacation, and a week later I was already 50 hours in...

"Poème du Feu" – Ida Gotkovsky

Timestamp: 9:15–9:39

I'm currently playing this with the concert band. Some of the composer's visions of fire strangely make me think of Australia...

#6 (0/1)
"Pollution" – [PC] Factorio


(No timestamp, because I transcribed the only transcribable part of the song, and, actually, of the whole OST)
I think I threw a hundful of hundreds of hours into this game last year...

#7 (0/1)
"Kimi no Shiranai Monogatari" – [TV] Bakemonogatari

Timestamp: 0:15–1:33

This is the serie I'm watching right now, and I have to say, Monogatari's openings take a huge place in (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4nm5498BYTI) my (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jePBN9qPPf0) favourites (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2UdBepO6duQ) ranking (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vRVEZq8plc0). I mean, when I saw the first one being based on staplers (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pbLfmFEn6dA), I instantly knew there was something graphically unique going on there. This song, however, is actually an ending, so quite befitting to end this quiz :)

I fear that this may be a little bit more difficult than my usual since I threw it together in a hurry without having the chance to spend as much time balancing it as I'd like... I miss having the time to be able to put these together. I hope you enjoy anyway, my first quiz in a long time :P

You spend all your time waiting, and then two come at once!  (Ok it wasn't really that long waiting.)

My quizzes are usually kind of bad but here we go again anyway:

Libera's Melody Quiz III (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/iug0c12yb358w19/AABvi95V85lX6GcSSQ32TGgIa?dl=0)

The theme this time is a little different, it's themes!  As in, there are 5 different themes in the quiz with three melodies for each theme.  The themes are:


Some of the themes might seem a little arbitrary and that was kind of the point.  Anyway, just to be clear there are 15 melodies and they each fit into exactly one of these categories (provided I haven't made some terrible mistake) and once again the ordering of the melodies has no relation to anything, including the themes themselves.  PM me answers or on discord if you have to.  I'll probably put the answers up sometime next weekend or something like that.

Oh and give Latios' quiz a go if you haven't already.

Guess-That-Melody Quiz: Latios Round 6? (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/d6ulo8h9b6c10do/AABicU53jxdqDwFyIH2XwdHsa?dl=0)
Results time :P There were 6 participants.

#1 (1/6)
Xenoblade Chronicles 2 - Garfont Mercenaries (0:12)

Guessed correctly by: Libera

A pretty memorable melody I think, one of my favorites from the game, but unfortunately not recognized by most :( (of course Libera got it though hehe)
[close]

#2 (4/6)
Super Smash Bros. Brawl - Mario Bros. (0:10)

Guessed correctly by: Static, Yug Guy, Kaphita, SlowPokemon

This is actually based off of the original Mario Bros. Title Theme (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=toZH-2kw-DY) but I used the Brawl version because it slipped my mind briefly where the original was from, haha. Counting that as correct here since it's an exact transposition of the melody.
[close]

#3 (0/6)
EarthBound Beginnings - House (0:00)

Guessed correctly by: No one

For some reason I thought this was more well known. Has it been remixed? Unrelated, but SlowPokemon said this was similar to the Pikmin theme.
[close]

#4 (1/6)
Super Mario Odyssey - Shop (0:47)

Guessed correctly by: mastersuperfan

A little melody tucked away as one of the four different retro-sounding shop themes. Nice and catchy, it's musically pretty similar to the shop theme from EarthBound.
[close]

#5 (1/6)
Kirby Mass Attack - Snowy Zone (0:36)

Guessed correctly by: Static

I really liked this song, and I think it sounds super triumphant/victorious, although the snippet I chose sounds somewhat like it could be from any number of places. Static was able to place this one quickly, though :P
[close]

#6 (1/6)
Pokémon Ruby/Sapphire - Abandoned Ship (0:20)

Guessed correctly by: Yug Guy

Pretty distinctive but seemingly somewhat "hidden". This piece is also reused in OR/AS for "Sea Mauville" and "Southern Island". (Also this track is a lot shorter than I thought at only 40 seconds...)
[close]

#7 (2/6)
Super Paper Mario - Pit of 100 Trials (0:00)

Guessed correctly by: mastersuperfan, Static

In hindsight, this one's just blatantly obvious for anyone who's been here and probably unrecognizable for anyone who hasn't...
[close]

#8 (2/6)
The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess - Death Mountain (0:15)

Guessed correctly by: Libera

A couple of people guessed Goron City from Ocarina of Time, which is where this melody originates from (I actually had no idea... oops) Unfortunately, I couldn't count those guesses as correct since that melody uses E naturals instead of E flats, meaning that it's different modally as opposed to being a direct restatement via transposition. (Sorry, this one's my bad haha)
[close]

#9 (1/6)
Donky Kong Country - Funky's Fugue (0:41)

Guessed correctly by: Yug Guy

Not a fugue, but definitely funky and very rhythmic.
[close]

#10 (1/6)
Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Blue/Red Rescue Team - Mt. Thunder (0:30)

Guessed correctly by: mastersuperfan

Definitely thought this one would be more recognizable, maybe after Rescue Team DX comes out...
[close]

#11 (3/6)
Kirby's Epic Yarn - Quilty Square (0:30)

Guessed correctly by: mastersuperfan, Static, Kaphita

A nice chill Kirby song from Epic Yarn.
[close]

#12 (0/6)
The Legend of Zelda: Phantom Hourglass (0:01)

Guessed correctly by: No one

I'm a bit surprised this one didn't get guessed, given it's the main part of the song. I suppose it's one of the lesser played Zelda games. Though maybe the fact that this sounds very Zelda-esque but isn't super distinctive on its own works against it in that regard.
[close]

#13 (4/6)
Deltarune - Field of Hopes and Dreams (1:39)

Guessed correctly by: mastersuperfan, Static, Yug Guy, Libera

Something on the easier side, and one of the defining parts of this track's melody.
[close]

#14 (3/6)
Pokémon Sun/Moon - Seafolk Village (Night) (0:06)

Guessed correctly by: mastersuperfan, Yug Guy, SlowPokemon

mastersuperfan pointed out this does a thing similar to #7, which was completely unintentional.
[close]

#15 (0/6)
Red Dead Redemption 2 - House Building Theme (0:00)

Guessed correctly by: No one

Haha I didn't expect anyone to get this one, even though the whole song is mostly just this riff. But take a listen if you have a chance, it's a catchy little song...
[close]

And... scores!

Spoiler
2 - Kaphita (2, 11)
2 - SlowPokemon (2, 14)
3 - Libera (1, 8, 13)
5 - Static (2, 5, 7, 11, 13)

Answers will be posted whenever I feel like it.
Title: Re: The NSM Guess-That-Melody Quiz!
Post by: Libera on January 31, 2020, 01:18:37 PM
Results are out!  Though really I'm going to chalk this one up as a bit of a failure considering that 80% of the melodies weren't guessed at all, but I guess it could have been worse.

Melody I
Clannad - Spring Breeze (0:49 -1:02)
Guesses correct: 0/4

This was part of the Same game set along with V and VII.  Probably the most memorable melody from this soundtrack, at least in my opinion.  Also, I should note that the in-game version differs from the released version which is why the transcription doesn't quite match the video.
[close]

Melody II
Final Fantasy X - Thunder Plains (0:03 - 0:12)
Guesses correct: 0/4

This was part of the Same composer set along with IX and XV.  The composer was Masashi Hamauzu!  I thought this one wouldn't be so bad since I thought I'd seen FFX stuff here before, but alas.
[close]

Melody III
Fire Emblem Fates - Contest of Pride (0:33 -0:42)
Guesses correct: 1/4

This was part of the DLC set along with IV and X.  Glad to see someone got it!
[close]

Melody IV
Dark Souls 2 - Sinh, the Slumbering Dragon (0:19 -0:34)
Guesses correct: 0/4

This was part of the DLC set along with III and X.
[close]

Melody V
Clannad - Ana (0:36 -0:48)
Guesses correct: 0/4

This was part of the Same game set along with I and VII.
[close]

Melody VI
Planescape: Torment - Nameless One Theme (0:22 -0:39)
Guesses correct: 0/4

This was part of the 1999 set along with XIII and XIV.  I probably shouldn't pick 'hard' ones since the normal difficulty melodies no one gets anyway.
[close]

Melody VII
Clannad - The Place Where Wishes Come True (0:00 -0:11)
Guesses correct: 0/4

This was part of the Same game set along with I and V.
[close]

Melody VIII
Pokemon Ruby and Sapphire - Fortree City (0:26 -0:34)
Guesses correct: 2/4

This was part of the Town/City set along with XI and XII.  Pokemon was a good pick I think, considering that half of people got it.
[close]

Melody IX
Final Fantasy XIII - FINAL FANTASY XIII - Miracles (0:35 -0:47)
Guesses correct: 0/4

This was part of the Same composer set along with II and XV.
[close]

Melody X
Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild: The Divine Princess and the Five Champions (1:27 - 1:37)
Guesses correct: 0/4

This was part of the DLC set along with III and IV.  This was intended to be on the easier side since I thought BotW was popular, but maybe the DLC not so much.
[close]

Melody XI
Xenoblade Chronicles 2 - Ever Come to an End (1:52 - 2:10)
Guesses correct: 0/4

This was part of the Town/City set along with VIII and XII.  Xenoblade 2 has so many town/city themes that I had to pick one of them... Alas, not to be recognised. 
[close]

Melody XII
Bravely Default - The Civil War Country (0:50 - 0:59)
Guesses correct: 0/4

This was part of the Town/City set along with VIII and XI.  Cool town theme from Bravely Default that I thought would work, but I was wrong.
[close]

Melody XIII
Donkey Kong 64 - Mermaid Palace (0:44 -0:55)
Guesses correct: 0/4

This was part of the 1999 set along with XIII and XIV.  I tried to pick a game I'd knew nothing about because that sometimes helps it to be recognised and I thought this game (and soundtrack) was popular here, but it was not enough.
[close]

Melody XIV
Super Smash Bros. - Staff Roll (0:12 -0:19)
Guesses correct: 4/4

This was part of the 1999 set along with VI and XIII.  Smash, on the other hand, does very well.  Very well indeed haha.
[close]

Melody XV
The Legend of Legacy - Double Dimensional Battle (0:27 -0:40)
Guesses correct: 0/4

This was part of the Same composer set along with II and XV.  This was another 'hard' one so I wasn't really surprised with the result here.
[close]

And now the results...

The winner is...
mastersuperfan! ! ! !
with 3/10 (III, VIII and XIV) correct guesses!

The other participants were:
Latios212 with 2/10 (VIII, XIV) correct guesses.
Dekkadeci with 1/10 (XIV) correct guesses,
and FlamesofDeath with 1/10 (XIV) correct guesses.
[close]

Thanks to everyone who took part, and if I do it again I'll try to make it easier (again).

~ Radiak's Melody Quiz #1 ~

Here's my first melody quiz! I tried my best to include a decent variety of consoles and games (though basically all are Nintendo).

Post by: BlueKirby on November 13, 2020, 11:30:25 AM
are you ready for an excessively long melody quiz, from me, the person who has way too much of an obsession with these types of things?

There are 35 melodies and 4 difficulties: Easy, Normal, Hard, and Lunatic. gee wonder what that's a reference to

Difficulty Explanation
For Easy, I used well-known songs from well-known games, or songs with videos over 1 million views on YouTube and many covers/remixes.

For Normal, I went with some standard stuff, but I probably overestimated the popularity of some of these games, so I'm sorry.

For Hard, I went with either lesser-known games in popular series, or less obvious melodies. Again, I'm horrid at judging difficulty, so be advised.

For Lunatic, I just went with obscure/not very well known games. Don't be mad if you don't get anything here, it's meant to be insane. That's one of two reasons why I only went for 5. the other is that i couldn't find anymore games lol
[close]

do note the .mus is poorly formatted and more meant to be listened to. i didn't know how to fix that, and i wasn't going to spend hours fixing up something meant for listening.

FOLDER OF STUFF (https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1J0eZizZqJtX0WCZKxtSEbKLzO8G8rkeF?usp=sharing)

To answer, either DM here or on Discord, but you'll have a better time catching me on here. I'll also give a few hints, if requested.

This will probably go for about 2 weeks.

EDIT: I forgot to mention, you can guess as many times as you like!

Here come the results! I think it went pretty well, all things considered. Thanks to all the participants! Also, BlueKirby and I appear to have sparked a revival in the melody quizzing community, so look forward to that in the near future.

 Melody #1 (0/10)
Yoshi's Woolly World - "Special Stage"

Section used: 0:03

Guess I overestimated people's familiarity with Woolly World, oh well.

Quote from: Dudeman#1: ugh I know this

 Melody #2 (6/10)
The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening - "Sword Search"

Section used: 0:00

A great little song from Link's Awakening. This motif is used elsewhere in the game as well, but this variation is the one you hear while looking for your sword on the beach.

 Melody #3 (5/10)
Mario Kart 8 - "Wild Woods"

Section used: 0:08

Taken from the best-selling game on the Wii U Switch, so I figured it'd be a pretty easy melody to guess.

Quote from: mastersuperfan#3 is Wild Woods (I wonder why they didn't call it Wild Wild Woods)

 Melody #4 (2/10)
Pokémon DPP - "TV Station"

Section used: 0:07

A fun song that only plays in the Jubilife TV building. The latter part is kind of hard to hear amid the chaotic instrumentation, but 2 people were able to get it.

Guessed by:
  • Latios212
  • Kaphita
[close]

 Melody #5 (3/10)
Kirby Super Star - ""Grape Garden""

Section used: 0:07

Here's the deal: this song's official name is actually "Sea Stage"/海ステージ, but most people know it as "Grape Garden" because of the GilvaSunner upload (he titled it that way because Meta Knight mentions Grape Garden right before it plays in-game). Unfortunately, there is already a Kirby song called Grape Garden (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B92TnpK1_dE), and two identically titled Kirby songs is a bit confusing for melody quizzing purposes. My sincerest apologies to Latios, who knew this one in his heart but was unable to guess it in time.

Quote from: Latios212ah I definitely know 5 but can't name it atm
Quote from: Latios212I will probably revisit the quiz at a later time
5 is the kind of thing that will make me lose sleep if I don't get it soon, though
Quote from: Latios212I feel like it's an old kirby game or something but idk
Quote from: Latios212I still haven't gotten that one and I feel really sad
QuoteLatios212: AAAAAAAAAA
Latios212: WHAT IS 5
Radiak488417: don't overthink it
Latios212: it's too late for that
Radiak488417: welp

Quote from: mastersuperfan#5 is a Kirby water level theme I think, I need to go find which game
I
can't find it
Quote from: mastersuperfanI do need to find #5
I know exactly how it sounds
I'm pretty sure it transitions into a remix of Float Islands...
or maybe it doesn't
Quotemastersuperfan: gaergouharghogherauhaga
mastersuperfan: it can't not be Kirby can it
mastersuperfan: what if it isn't
Radiak488417: i can with 100% certainty inform you that it could be from kirby
Radiak488417: or not

Xenoblade Chronicles - "Gaur Plain"

How has this not been used in a quiz yet? To no one's surprise, pretty much everyone got this one.

 Melody #9 (1/10)
Kid Icarus Uprising - "Mysterious Invaders" (Pyrhhon's Theme)

Section used: 1:07

SHAZAMMITYLAM!

I really didn't expect anyone to get this, but MSF somehow knew it immediately. This motif plays in another level too, but this is the first instance of it.

Quote from: Dudeman#9: this is probably a character theme from an RPG
Close enough.

 Melody #10 (1/10)
Earthbound - "Threed, Free at Last"

Section used: 1:14

More people would probably have gotten this if I used the beginning of the song, but I couldn't resist using the portion that has The Lick (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=krDxhnaKD7Q) in it.

 Melody #11 (1/10)
Super Mario 3D Land - "Desert Theme"

Section used: 0:21

I'm willing to bet that a majority of the people who participated have played 3D Land, so I'm surprised more people didn't get this one. Then again, it's one of the few level themes from this game that didn't get remixed in a later title.

 Melody #14 (5/10)
Super Smash Bros. Melee - "Battlefield"

Section used: 1:12

One of the more obscure melodies in Melee, but it sounds similar enough to other Smash themes that a bunch of people got it anyways.

Quote from: mastersuperfan#14 is probably a Smash credits theme or something
Quote from: mastersuperfanwoah the Melee Battlefield theme is fast
woah the Melee Battlefield theme is #14

Quote from: Dudeman#14: Final Destination - Super Smash Bros. Melee

The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild - "Nintendo Switch Presentation 2017 Trailer BGM"

Section used: 1:39

That title is quite a mouthful, huh...
This one's technically not in a game, but it got remixed in Smash so I'd say it's a fair inclusion. A few people pointed out that the section I picked sounds similar to Kraid's Lair from Metroid, which it does a bit. Sadly, no one got this one.

AND WE'RE BACK

Guess-That-Melody Quiz: MSF Round 28 (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/yqyub0tm9hwu5xq/AACBqGSe3LlRXas8wGU1bvnOa?dl=0)

For your convenience, I have sorted this quiz into four difficulty levels:
Note: The difficulty level is not meant to be a representation of objective popularity. There are quite a few tracks in the Hard or Maddening sections that more popular/have more views than tracks in the Easy or Medium sections, but I sorted them this way based on my judgment of what is and isn't well known among the NinSheetMusic community. If your video game tastes aren't very mainstream, you might find that you (for example) recognize more melodies in the Hard section than in the Medium section. Don't get mad at me if you do.

And with that, you may now begin.

EDIT: Additional note: The melodies within each section are not necessarily ordered by difficulty. For example, #11 is not necessarily easier than #20.

Answers will probably be posted next Wednesday or so.

I was originally going to include the clapping in this song, but something messed up with the .mus file so i had to omit it. Also, I really thought this song was much more popular considering I've seen memes about this specific section of the song. Maybe if it had the clapping...

Picked this one because it hadn't been used yet, an extended version of this song recently hit 1 million views and isn't the only video of this song to have over 1 million views, it got a GaMetal remix this year, and I just really like Touhou 8.
is it bad that i have nearly 60 hours in touhou 8 and haven't even come close to beating mokou?

edit aug 17th, 2021: i beat mokou on august 15th, with nearly 70 hours in touhou 8

ugh. this one was a nightmare to transcribe. my mind went "hey, DR music is cool, let's use some!" and i was like "sure!' because DR music slaps even though i've never played any of them. i kinda wanted to use "Ikoroshia" from SRD2, but since it has been used (or, it's bassline's been used) twice already, and i kinda didn't want to transcribe that trumpet solo (despite how amazing it is), i decided against it, so i just skimmed through DR1 to find a song that stuck out to me and this was that song. by the time i realized how hard it was to transcribe i was already way too far in so i just had to commit to it.

i think that's a first for melody quizzes here, a "volume warning". lol sorry, i picked this one and that specific part because it was a meme, causing the song to be a bit more "well-known" (well, as well-known as an obscure series based off of another large, yet somewhat obscure series can be). also, this is only related to the fight, but here's my time to say it: twin cranes isn't hard, y'all just suck at deathbombing in a game with an extremely generous deathbomb timer.

Welcome to my first and hopefully not last Melody Quiz! Games are mainly Nintendo, PC, and other random games mixed in! There is no difficulty levels, so 1 may be much harder than lets say 25 (this is not indicative if they are, just an example). I have provided a .mus file that doesnt have the best text but it should work for Finale users.

DM me the results in Discord whether in real time or just whenever you want in bulk, whatever works for me!

Also appears in City Folk, New Leaf, and New Horizons. I was hoping that the high number of people playing New Horizons in early quarantine might make this one more recognizable, although the New Horizons version (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZrCc5pPAzUE) is slower, so it would be harder to recognize if it was the only Animal Crossing game you've played.

I was tempted to transcribe the bassoon part instead and put it in Normal or Hard, but I'm pretty sure nobody would've gotten it if I did.

"Red Streamer Battle" – [SW] Paper Mario: The Origami King

Timestamp: 1:08

Okay, so this one makes me a little sad. I get that a lot of people probably haven't yet played (or won't play) Origami King, but I wanted to use something from this game, so I tried to go with the most well-known track other than the main theme/Toad Town. But, um... I guess nobody knows the battle theme either.

While it's my favorite part of the track, the part I picked was admittedly a bit tricky. However, before you give me flak for it, let me redirect you to the Yellow Streamer Battle (https://youtu.be/zf7oMh5lOtA?t=68) theme, which remixes the same part into an incredibly catchy and memorable line at 1:08.

Also, while making this quiz, I discovered that this live orchestral version (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YzwgGNPetE4) exists. My life is now complete.

Great track, great kingdom, great atmosphere. To be honest, I'm not a huge fan of Odyssey, but this music is awesome. I intentionally picked a snippet of this track that I knew would be difficult to pin down...

Another iteration of games I have never played but whose music I know through Smooth McGroove. This track is fantastic. This part was a bit tricky, but it was the only real melody I could transcribe from this track that would be recognizable.

"Vega Stage" – [ARCADE] Street Fighter II

Timestamp: 0:29

Also has a remix in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ztb48XVBpXU) with an awesome violin.

Okay, this is when the quiz started getting very difficult. This is one of those tracks that I've heard multiple times before but never really remembered where it came from until I made this quiz. If I had been given this quiz two weeks ago, this melody would have driven me absolutely insane, and I never would have found it because it is absolutely not the type of music you associate with Street Fighter.

Turns out, everyone else who recognized this one also had the same reaction. Except one person actually found it.

Quote from: Dudeman#24: I absolutely know this one and it upsets me that I can't remember it

Quote from: Kaphitai should know 24 too

Another case of "I know absolutely nothing about this game except for this one track." In hindsight, this might have belonged in Maddening, but it's popular enough that I thought that a few people might know it. I was hoping people might get it from following Cristina Vee or from those one or two meme videos that use it (see "Paper Mario The Origami King in a nutshell"). In the end, I'm glad that one person got it, at least.

"Reminiscence ~ The Bitter Taste of Truth" – [NDS] Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney: Trials and Tribulations

Timestamp: 0:41

This one makes me a little sad because it's easily one of my favorite tracks from the game, right up there with the Court Begins and End themes. Everyone knows Godot's theme instead of this one, but this one hits so much harder... :(

I suppose that if we use melodies from the first AA game, droves of people will get it, but as soon as we use something from a later game, nobody knows it. In the end, the only person who got it was the one who arranged it... and even then, it wasn't easy.

And here we have another case of "lots of people will get it if you pick the first game but not any later game in the series." To be fair, some of you have probably played DR1/2 but not V3 yet. That said, I really like this track, and it's one of the most well known ones from this game besides Beautiful Lie, so I was hoping other people would know it too.

"Alight" – [3DS] Fire Emblem Fates

Timestamp: 2:07

This is easily one of my favorite map themes from Fates... it's so good. I wish more people knew it... or knew Fates music in general, because as bad as the games themselves can be sometimes, the music is fantastic. Contrary to popular opinion, I prefer the Calm version of this track over the Storm one.

The part I picked was a bit tricky, and in hindsight, it might have been more recognizable had I used 0:29 or 1:09 instead. However, I really like how the part I transcribed is a countermelody at 1:45 and then becomes the actual melody at 2:07.

QuoteMaelstrom: 29 - maoria cathedral

"Iris" – [NDS] Professor Layton and the Diabolical Box

Timestamp: 3:13

(Don't be fooled by the 3-minute timestamp; this melody recurs multiple times throughout the piece. I just picked the one that corresponded to the octave I transcribed it in.)

Aaaaaaahhh okay out of all of them this one honestly might make me the saddest. Professor Layton's theme was used once before, so I thought I would go with the second-most famous track in the series to see if anyone has played these great games. I guess not :(

(I know there have been some Professor Layton fans on NSM—heck, we have a whole section on-site for it—but none of them participate in this quiz or are active anymore, unfortunately.)

While you're here, though, you might consider checking out these awesome covers by adrisaurus (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R4vKVNZAUyo) and insaneintherainmusic (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sN06rrLQMh4).

"Fighting Onward (Space Port)" – [SW] Sonic Forces

Timestamp: 1:26

This honestly might be one of my favorite tracks ever. I actually bought this game when it came out (for some inane reason), played two levels in, and then stopped. However, this was the music for the second level, and hot damn, I just had to stop and listen for a while when I first heard it.

I picked this part of the track very intentionally. Does this melody remind you of anything (https://youtu.be/a6alHPzmQQo?t=86)?

Quote from: Kaphita32 gives me
very strong weeb vibes

Quote from: Dudeman#32: The final three notes in the fourth measure are triggering this melody for me, and I think I can hear a kind of chiptune-y instrumentation, but my mind keeps pulling up Fireflies whenever I think on it too hard and it's driving me nuts

Quiz 152 answers will be posted tonight at midnight EST.

Here is our fifty-melody-long:
Guess-That-Soundbyte Midterm 154!

[Dropbox folder] (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/z1ol7eg4rxnyzbf/AACcystI6y1vTLy-vjZQGMyPa?dl=0)

[Google Form] (https://forms.gle/Boyuh1tgBMk1gNvn6)

This one was essentially procedurally generated by hand if that makes any sense at all. My methodology is in the spoiler below, but otherwise all you really need to know is that:
1. Each "series" according to NSM is used exactly once and there are 7 "Other" tracks.
2. The tracks are ordered by a vague conception of sales numbers. (More details in the spoiler.)

Methodology
For all randomness, I used Random.org. For each series, one game was chosen from all games with at least sheet on site with equal probability. Then I went to Khinsider (or YouTube if Khinsider didn't have it) and chose a track at random. Finally, I choose a timestamp at random and cropped it. I vetoed if (1) the soundbyte wasn't representative of the track or if (2) the track wasn't representative of the soundtrack. The games are ordered by "sales numbers" even though the results weren't all that reliable. If a game didn't have those published, I took the sales numbers for the series/mini-series and divided it by the number of games. If there weren't even series numbers, I put it at the bottom of the list.

Hopefully this methodology didn't yield a terrible quiz. It's made kind of obvious that making, for example, "Mario & Wario" and "Super Mario Odyssey" equally likely led to some weird results. In creating the quiz after this one, I used the Huntington-Hill method (the method the US government uses to apportion seats in the House of Representatives according to census populations) to apportion the number of melodies according to number of games on site.

Anyways, lol, have fun with this one. Since this one is longer and has more steps, this one should end a month from now on 12/29 at a time TBD.

Congratulations, mastersuperfan! Impressive that you got all of them except for #13 (and probably would've gotten that one too if it came down to it).

I first wrote out all the numbers everyone got, but I decided that was bland and was mostly meaningless. Instead, I made a little chart like this. Anyways, these guessers guessed these melodies:
A '0' denotes missing the melody and a '1' denotes guessing correctly.

Seems like Mario Kart is very well known. All but one of the guessers who got 5+ melodies right got all 5 Mario Kart melodies right. And sorry, Mario Party. You're the real loser of this melody quiz unfortunately.

All other Melody Quizzers, I recommend you use Google Forms since that made that so much easier for me. Ultimately, you do you. Watching the results come in was fun too. IIrc, this quiz had more guessers than any other quiz I've ever done, so cool beans. Too bad, [second place winner], better luck next time.

IT'S BLUEKIRBY'S MELODY QUIZ 2, ELECTRIC BOOGALOO

This time, with 100% less Len'en*! And also an "Extra" difficulty?? *gasp*

Difficulties are same as last time plus Extra

Easy is well-known songs

Normal is either popular songs from weird games or just decently known songs

Hard is lesser known, but not downright obscure games or melodies late into songs

Lunatic is lesser known tracks from lesser known games, melodies late into songs, that kinda stuff. Also, no, #16 isn't from Touhou/Len'en. I mentioned it somewhere else, so it'd be fair to let everyone know.

Extra is a bit different. I plan to start experimenting with Extra difficulty in the future, but basically it'll be a set of songs that follow one specific theme and aren't counted as part of the score, but just a little bonus. This time the theme is: "Fangames/Fanmods". For the purpose of this theme, games heavily inspired by a particular series or multiple series, but not connected to, aren't counted as fangames (Len'en, Undertale, etc.), but fangames of those count. Also this was entirely for #25, which I guarantee no one will get, but that's fine because I only put it in for self-indulgence reasons.


BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE.

I'm also including a Micro-Quiz, consisting of 5 basslines! It'll be scored separately and is completely optional, so don't feel pressured to answer it!


again, .mus is poorly formatted and meant for listening. dm thru either here or discord. time will be at least 1 week, potentially more, depending on how lazy i am i feel.

And here's one hint: Excluding the Extra difficulty, only 1 series has more than one song, and that series is Kirby. Why? because i like kirby. Don't despair, however, as I still tried to get a decent variety of games! And you can ask for hints as well, don't worry!

"Startup" – [GCN] Nintendo GameCube BIOS

Timestamp: 0:00

I don't really know what the time signature of this should be, but listening to it makes it obvious enough regardless. This was a free point for almost everyone.

This was also intended to be an easy point. It's a really iconic theme that people don't seem to mention a lot.

One of the most iconic Zelda themes out there. I could have been evil and picked a part from later in the track, but I didn't.

"Title Theme" – [GB] Kirby's Dream Land

Timestamp: 0:07
YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/aZRhXBsFNDw?t=7)

This one actually bamboozled some people because it just sounds like very generic Kirby, and it was hard to pin down where exactly it was from. I also didn't realize that the first measure of this melody is also in Greens Greens, which may have confused people.

Quote from: Static4
i feel like

but i cant place it

Kaphita: evil
Kaphita: planet popstar

Kaphita: lawiuehgaoiluew;i'
QuoteKaphita: This song is a medley of 5 level songs ported directly from Kirby's Dream Land: Green Greens, Castle Lololo, Float Islands, Bubbly Clouds, and Mt. Dedede
Kaphita: one of these?
mastersuperfan: which track is this?
mastersuperfan: does it have the melody in it
Kaphita: "kirby retro medley"
Kaphita: for 4
Kaphita: good question
mastersuperfan: I believe the answer is... no

"Dialga's Fight to the Finish" – [NDS] Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time/Darkness

Timestamp: 0:45
YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/wy9VvdaLuSs?t=45)

If there's any PMD track I can expected non-PMD fans to recognize, it's this one—partly because of Bespinben's infamous arrangements. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H98mjo9V9ow) This would never have gone into the Easy section except for the fact that this is NinSheetMusic, where everyone and their mother loves PMD.

"Title Screen" – [NES] Mega Man 2

Timestamp: 0:27
YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/3YLQuq4p73w?t=27)

So I thought this was iconic and thus would be easily recognizable, but it turns out that a lot of people actually don't know that this part of the theme exists. Whoops.

Also recognizable from the Mega Man 2 medley in Smash 4. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hsQfb7XTOtY)

Quote from: Atceroit sounds familiar
like the ending part reminds me of Megaman opening

"Bad Apple" – [PC-98] Touhou 4: Lotus Land Story

Timestamp: 0:20
YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/5Su8UOs0SFA?t=20)

This is probably the most famous Touhou track in existence (mainly in the form of this vocal remix (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FtutLA63Cp8)), arguably even moreso than "U.N. Owen was her?". WaluigiTime64 actually used this track once before, but it was an obscure part that nobody knows, so this time, I decided to pick the part that people could actually get.

By the way, this metal cover with English lyrics (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Xz4NV0zsbY) by RichaadEB and Cristina Vee is one of greatest pieces of music I've ever heard. I highly suggest you take a listen if you have a few minutes to spare.

"View" – [GCN] Pikmin

Timestamp: 0:48
YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/IeAUPbKRdFs?t=48)

AKA the World Map theme. As with many other tracks on this quiz, this one is well known from Super Smash Bros. Brawl. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A-gdJXxcbxw) The track title in Brawl, "World Map (Pikmin 2)", is actually wrong because this is from Pikmin 1, not Pikmin 2, but I accepted it anyway because I was generous. You're welcome.

Quote from: BlueKirby9 IS SO FUCKING FAMILIAR AAAAAAAAa

Not quite as iconic as Rainbow Road from Mario Kart 64, but still fairly well known.

Also remixed in the Rainbow Road Medley (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SO-cZr925z4) in Smash 4.

"Rito Village (Day)" – [WiiU/SW] The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild

Timestamp: 0:12
YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/Kk4uGUrM868?t=12)

Also found in Revali's theme. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=asFFb4GxIvw)

Most of this track is a remix of Dragon Roost Island, so naturally, I picked the part that wasn't from Dragon Roost Island. This is a really nice track.

QuoteRadiak488417: 11 is rito village (night)
mastersuperfan: that is

"Here We Are" – [PC] Undertale

Timestamp: 1:28
YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/y49b8aiQVBg?t=88)

This is probably one of the few Undertale tracks that's obscure enough to warrant being put in the Normal section instead of the Easy section. Also, it's in 5/4 time, which is neat.

I don't actually remember this part of the game very well, but it seems like others do. Probably because I played Genocide at least seven times and Pacifist only once...

QuoteYug Guy: #12 almost sounds like the Weapons factory theme from SMRPG lol
mastersuperfan: I can see that
Yug Guy: this is a complete shot in the dark
Yug Guy: is it Belch's Factory from earthbound?
mastersuperfan: nope
Yug Guy: i'm pretty sure i recognize it

Great music, terriblly designed battle. I tried to pick a generic part that would trip people up, but it seems like plenty of people recognized it just fine.

It also got a remix in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pC_xcdXhCFA), which is neat.

"Boss Battle" – [NDS] Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time

Timestamp: 0:14
YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/BWNzQlor9OU?t=14)

#14 back at it again with a generic battle theme from a Mario RPG whose popularity I seem to have overestimated.

I picked this track because I'm pretty sure it plays, like, at least five times more than any other track in the game, so if there was any track you'd remember, it'd be this one. Unfortunately, I guess not a lot of people have played it compared to Superstar Saga and Bowser's Inside Story, which makes me a little sad because this game was my childhood. But oh well.

QuoteRadiak488417: ok normal section time
mastersuperfan: how much do you want to bet that your streak breaks at #14 again

"Happy People" / "Congratulations, Everyone" – [NDS] Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney

Timestamp: 0:15
YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/oVbFMCFl9xE?t=15)

*cue a woman with an afro yelling at you in a Southern accent*

I don't know why there are two completely different names for this title, but I accepted either one. This is a track that I think people probably wouldn't listen to often outside of the game, but is still memorable enough that people would remember it from the game itself.

With the number of quiz participants who have played at least the first Ace Attorney game, I thought this would be well known enough to warrant being placed in Normal instead of Hard, but it seems I was wrong. I'm glad that at least a few people got it, though.

"Id (Purpose)" – [3DS] Fire Emblem: Awakening

God-Shattering Star was supposed to go here, but BlueKirby used that in her last quiz, so I picked the next best thing as a replacement. I could have been nice and given the beginning part, but I was mean and transcribed the section very far into the track. Either way, fewer people got this track than I expected.

This was in Smash 4 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NOMowfvuyi4) and also got a remix in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oNUrRFWXZ4E) as well.

Timestamp: 1:11

It's desert music, but with trumpets! I just like desert music in general.

By the way, for those who were wondering, this is where the idea for a Squizzard emote came from:

QuoteStatic: 17 is the best song in this quiz
Static: also known as slipsand galaxy
mastersuperfan: yes
Static: i love that track so much
mastersuperfan: the virgin dusty dune galaxy vs the CHAD slipsand galaxy
Static: true
Static: dusty dune: no squizzard
Static: slipsand: has squizzard
mastersuperfan: SMG2 is the best Mario game because it has squizzard
mastersuperfan: Squizzard for Smash
Static: small brain: mario 3d all stars is bad bc it doenst have smg2
Static: galaxy brain: mario 3d all stars is bad bc it doesnt have squizzard

One of the more well known tracks from this game, and the level is really fun too. Interestingly, some people said that this sounded like Pokémon.

"Map (Day)" – [3DS] Tomodachi Life

Timestamp: 0:08
YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/xhAxAbr106E?t=8)

I've never played this game, nor have I heard anyone talk about it. I just picked the most well known track from it to see if anyone has. However, it turns out that this one might be more well known than I expected due to Super Smash Bros. Ultimate (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l1NjGyBTvTE), high-quality rips (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XhG9rWtjcGQ), and memes... (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X8avbciUP3c)

"Twister" – [NDS] The World Ends With You

Timestamp: 0:18
YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/uXDGT1JixPk?t=18)

Note: Before you tell me that this isn't a melody, I redirect you to timestamp 1:10. I just transcribed the extended line at 0:18 to make it easier.

So this is the second and probably last time I use a track from TWEWY. This is one of the most famous tracks from the game, so I was hoping for at least one person to come through here.

This track got a remix in Kingdom Hearts 3D: Dream Drop Distance (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pp0viroPHgk) and was also briefly used in the recent NEO: TWEWY announcement trailer (https://youtu.be/JJSSaZXjcyk?t=61) (which, by the way, I am very excited for).

"Everybody Falls" – [MUL] Fall Guys

Timestamp: 0:12
YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/ys4rkcMbtjY?t=12)

Ah yes, Fall Guys, the game that rose to popularity and then faded into obscurity within a span of two weeks. I would've used something from Among Us if I could, except that game basically doesn't have music.

"Butterfly" – [ARCADE] Dance Dance Revolution

Timestamp: 0:37
YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/QzcvRDWgRIE?t=37)

AYIYAIYAI

This one got more guesses than I anticipated. I figured people might know this one for any number of reasons, either because you once played Dance Dance Revolution, you owned a Chinese toy phone that played this tune, or you randomly stumbled across it on the Internet eight years ago like I did (see Pikachu remix here (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F7kEt-Ton1Q)).

RichaadEB and Adriana Figueroa also released an amazing cover (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6rjaNgA8Okc) of this last year.

#1 (5/16)
"Cave Dungeon" – [N64] Super Mario 64, also known as "Hazy Maze Cave"

Timestamp: 1:00
YouTube Link (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fMb-WH2UYi0)

This one's a bit tricky - the sheet on site uses cut time for this, and some may consider it more of a countermelody than a melody. I thought it was fair though, since it's clear, unobstructed, and memorable. Enough people got this one :P

This is apparently a really popular song, but largely outside the realm of what people are familiar with at NSM, so I was curious how this one would do...

Every Nintendo fan is legally required to know this theme, so everyone who didn't get this one will be banned immediately (though the slowness of this section makes it a bit tougher than the main high melody, so it's understandable to miss)

Timestamp: 0:45
YouTube Link (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S_P2gObWRDs)

Much of this song is similar in style, so even though it's the end of the loop it'd probably sound familiar if you've played through the post-game before. I think this one was roughly the hardest one I put on the quiz.

Quote from: mastersuperfanI feel like it should be somewhat easy to pin down as "sounds like something from PMD2 somewhere maybe"

Timestamp: 0:19
YouTube Link (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5q6PNPSdQ8A)

I did not expect this one to be the one with the least correct guesses. Though I guess there's not much reason to stay on the file select screen until this part plays...

Radiak was painfully close (yet not close) when the pipe room (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jGSPMBea79c) from Super Mario GALAXY 2 came to mind...

This one... I had no idea how it would go because this section is not very distinctive when you strip it down to its melody, even though it's quite a widely known track. In the end, I was surprised more people didn't get this one :P

"Lockstep" – [NDS] Rhythm Heaven

Timestamp: 0:29
YouTube Link (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ixtYsFcaHw)

One of my favorite Rhythm Heaven tracks. The melody, especially in this section, really takes the front seat contrary to many other minigames where a rhythmic figure stands out more than the melody itself.

Title: The NSM Guess-That-Melody Quiz! - Levi's 3rd Quiz
Post by: LeviR.star on January 13, 2021, 07:59:48 PM
After a four year hiatus following his last quiz that drove everyone bonkers...

...he's back, baby! The creator of...

The NSM NotUntilLately Guess-That-Melody Quiz!

Yes, I've returned after a sudden urge of motivation (pressed by lack of motivation to practice my sax,) and made a brand new quiz with fifteen melodies! This time around, I've got a reformed sense of judgement. That means no:

- Satellaview music
- Mega Man Game Boy music

-- nor any music I know that no one but me would recognize!

This time, I've used music from games I've never even played, to make sure everyone gets a chance to hear something they know. The first twelve melodies are at a normal difficulty, and the last three are especially obscure, but still notable in some sense. We'll just have to see how well you all do!

Here's Quiz #3!

1.13.21 Melody Quiz.zip (https://www.dropbox.com/s/4rbuc6ll9dib3b9/1.13.21%20Melody%20Quiz.zip?dl=1)

Have fun playing! I'll post the answers once I feel enough people have played.

(Will you accept this quiz as an apology, Dudeman?)

Hey guess what

it's me again

Guess-That-Melody Quiz: MSF Round 30 (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/tbkw4fl87e0ekmo/AADgoHupQwpEumnj7RsukZbDa?dl=0)

This time, there are only 20 melodies. I have abolished the difficulty levels in favor of using random.org to sort everything into an incomprehensible mixture of whatever. No more Easy section for you!

EDIT: I'll add that there are four Mario melodies on this quiz. Other than that, no series is represented more than twice.

Answers will be posted about a week from now.

Convo with mastersuperfan about this one
mastersuperfan:
yeah now I do recognize the atmospheric sound effect
yeahhhh
good thing I asked for a hint lol
wait
is this even from the same track?
ShyYoshiGuy:
Fairly certain. I downloaded it from a YouTube video like that
One of the few I couldn't possibly find on Khinsider
mastersuperfan:
I think they're different tracks... I found the one that matches the 5-second version but not the ambient one
ShyYoshiGuy:
The ambient noise is at the end for some reason
mastersuperfan:
well
I'll just submit the title for the 5-second one for now
ShyYoshiGuy:
Ok
mastersuperfan:
and if it's right, I'm interested to se what youtube video you're using that has that ambient sound effect at the end
ShyYoshiGuy:
Sounds like a deal
mastersuperfan:
submitted
ShyYoshiGuy:
So yeah, that's the game
The other two gave a different title
mastersuperfan:
this is the track you sent me as the 5-second one
hence why I think they're from different tracks
ShyYoshiGuy:
And the YouTube video has a third title
I'll give it to you because this is so confusing. Track names are annoying
mastersuperfan:
yeah I think you need to double-check the video you're using
ShyYoshiGuy:
https://youtu.be/UmUX10xFatQ
mastersuperfan:
yeah so I think whoever used this video forgot to crop the end part off
which belongs to a different track
ShyYoshiGuy:
Lol
That's funny
mastersuperfan:
yeah did they say "A Desolate World"?
ShyYoshiGuy:
You're right. It sounds like the following song in the playlist
mastersuperfan:
or "Ruined World"
ShyYoshiGuy:
They said "Time Gate"
mastersuperfan:
there's... not even a track called "Time Gate" in the soundtrack
as far as I can tell
ShyYoshiGuy:
I don't even know
mastersuperfan:
also
the track after this one in the playlist
"24 Ruined World"
this is actually the wrong track lol
Ruined World/A Desolate World is a different track entirely
so the person who made this playlist is smoking something strong
ShyYoshiGuy:
Lol
This is what happens when I make Melody Quizzes of games I'm unfamiliar with, lol
mastersuperfan:
yeah so I looked into it some more
this track was not actually included in the released soundtrack
ShyYoshiGuy:
Dude

I'm never doing one that long again (in one session), I'm never doing cheats again, I'm never doing series guesses again. Lesson learned.
Title: Re: The NSM Guess-That-Melody Quiz!
Post by: ShyYoshiGuy on January 18, 2021, 08:59:16 AM
Differences:
This quiz is graded cumulatively. For example, if you get 2 on quiz d and 1 on quiz g, you'd get a score of 3 overall.
If there's a Melody that no one guesses, everyone will be given a hint each round until one person gets it.
No cheats or series guesses this time.
You can DM me in order to confirm that a song comes from a certain game before searching through an OST.

Guess-That-Soundbyte Exam 160! (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/7igl4r44gomx9rw/AAB1zVTKCCElawuM0ARYQtQ-a?dl=0) no, it's not factorial
Google Form Link! (https://forms.gle/aiKZrSbeFdzMWcgX7)

Melodies are distributed between series using the Huntington-Hill method, where each series gets at least one melody. At the beginning of each round, I'll give you this list with all of the guessed melodies removed. As such, this list will become more and more useful as we approach the end:

36 - Other
8 - Super Mario
4 - Pokémon
3 - Mega Man
3 - Kirby
3 - Legend of Zelda
2 - Donkey Kong
2 - Final Fantasy
2 - Castlevania
2 - Fire Emblem
2 - Touhou
1 (each) - List in spoiler below:
Each of these series appears once.
Sonic
Metroid
Harvest Moon
Mario Party
Prof. Layton
Dragon Quest
Mario Kart
Megami Tensei
Ace Attorney
Metal Gear
Xeno
Animal Crossing
Banjo-Kazooie
Kingdom Hearts
Paper Mario
PMD
Star Fox
Smash
Bomberman
Drakengard
FNaF
Mana
Monster Hunter
Rhythm Heaven
Chrono
EarthBound
F-Zero
Golden Sun
Kid Icarus
SaGa
Tales
Pikmin
Undertale
[close]

Edit: Oh yeah, these are numbered starting with 0 for a reason. The first digit will tell you which quiz it originally came from. For example, melody 69 is the 70th overall and the 10th melody on the 7th quiz. If that confuses you, then don't worry about it.

Hellloooo there, quizzers! Welcome back to...

The NSM NotUntilLately Guess-That-Melody Quiz!

We had a great turnout this time; that's good enough for me to promise more quizzes in the future. I'll bet you're all anxious to find out which ones you missed, so here they are!


The Answers
Normal Section


Melody #1
1. [SNES] The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past - "Hyrule Castle"



Timestamp: 0:56


Quote[10:29 PM] Maelstrom: 1 is farewell hyrule king
Quote[6:24 PM] Yug Guy: #1 - Ganon's Theme

I blame myself.

This was that one melody I wasn't all too familiar with myself (I'm not a Zelda fan), but I figured it would be one of the easier ones to pick out.

Timestamp: 0:55


I don't like Sonic the Hedgehog as a game, but this is one of them I can appreciate, for two reasons: 1.) Fan service, and 2.) Music. Turn it up!

[10:39 PM] Static: but it still sounds familiar
[10:39 PM] Static: i wouldnt know it tho if its pokemon

Only a composer like Toby Fox would reuse material when asked to write a song for the biggest video game franchise in the world.

And somehow, his least memorable work since his Homestuck era ended up being the most memorable song in the game. Go figure.

[10:26 PM] mastersuperfan: I just didn't think you would use two Pokémon tracks on one quiz when you haven't played it

[10:27 PM] mastersuperfan: so #4 actually counts as an Undertale track instead of a Pokémon track which means #9 can be Pokémon too
[10:27 PM] LeviR.star: could be...
[10:27 PM] mastersuperfan: it has to be
[10:27 PM] mastersuperfan: I swear

What a fun little song this is. This tune had several folks scratching their heads -- and others pulling their hair out.

[6:44 PM] Radiak488417: that's terrible why would you do that

[6:45 PM] LeviR.star: they're supposed to be hard, remember?
[6:45 PM] Radiak488417: oh true

This was picked especially to screw with the guessers. And while it was pretty mean, nearly everyone who got it adopted the same strategy: scrub the "all versions" (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zVRJktHHiTM&t=1223s) video.

So, in the end, was it really all that hard?

Disappointed, but not surprised

It's too bad our Dragon Quest section is so empty. But maybe it's for the best -- orchestra doesn't translate well to the keyboard.

"Snow (Super Mario Bros.)" – [SW] Super Mario Maker 2

The first of four Mario melodies. A nice little melody that you've likely heard a few times if you've played the game.

"The Lunar Sanctum" – [3DS] Kid Icarus: Uprising

Radiak and BlueKirby were using air battle themes, so I figured I might as well use one too. Funny thing is that each time one of us uses one, only one other person gets it.

For anyone who hasn't played the game, this is why I picked this particular melody: https://youtu.be/Q2JjGa4DNWo?t=13 (https://youtu.be/Q2JjGa4DNWo?t=13)

One of my favorite dungeon themes across the whole series. I thought this melody would be tricky since it's short and so far into the track, but all of the PSMD fans recognized it instantly. Remind me to pick a more obscure track if I ever use this game again...

This one was pretty mean. I tried to pull a Latios with what he did on Flower Fields last quiz, but it ended up being harder than I thought. It's amazing how removing the lower notes from the dyads can make the melody so unrecognizable.

That said, two people still got it!

This was one of the stranger inclusions for this quiz. I've been listening to some of Genshin Impact's OST lately, and I also know a lot of people IRL who play it, so I figured I'd throw this one to see if anyone else knows the music as well. I specifically picked this track because it's in 7/8, which is cool.

I thought this one would be pretty distinctive, but not a lot of people got it (maybe because KDL2 isn't a very popular game?). This track also got a remix in Kirby: Planet Robobot (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uJsBS9i-yns), for what it's worth.

This one was tricky, and I expected that not everyone who's played Sunshine would remember it. That said, this is also the theme that plays during the infamous Sand Bird, Pachinko machine, and lily pad levels, so I thought people might've remembered this track because it gave them PSTD...

I wanted to use some Xenoblade since Latios didn't have any in his last quiz, but I didn't want to pick something obscure, so naturally (and to Mael's disappointment), I went with the most well known track across the whole series.

So this song isn't technically from a game, but it was used in this game, and the only reason I know it is because this was one of my absolute favorite childhood games. I remembered about this game recently, and oh man, did the nostalgia hit. Anyone who's familiar with this game will know why I picked this track in particular...

If you have a (3)DS and you like rhythm games and funny stories, I strongly suggest you consider this game at some point. I can't recommend it enough.

(This game is the Western entry in the Ouendan series, which the game osu! is based on.)

oh boy round three

please note i had to forego a .mp3 file because in between this quiz and the last one, my musescore decided it doesn't wish to make them anymore without crashing.

anyways, 15 songs, 3 per difficulty, Extra difficulty counts towards score this time

Easy is well-known songs

Normal is either popular songs from weird games or just decently known songs

Hard is lesser known, but not downright obscure games or melodies late into songs

Lunatic is lesser known tracks from lesser known games, melodies late into songs, that kinda stuff.

Extra are certain songs sticking to a theme. This theme is Songs in Unusual Time Signatures. This is the only time series will duplicate.

DM here or on Discord for answers, yeah, you know the drill.

What a horrible night to post a melody quiz...

That's right, its time for the

Castlevania Melody Quiz! (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/n6s40w7617r93av/AADjHsfBJi7HNYOXjWWXyJkPa?dl=0)

This quiz contains 25 melodies from all sorts of Castlevania games!

Here are some guidelines!:
1. There may be some songs I will require the game name from. I will tell you which ones if you guess it so don't worry about listing game names.
2. If you don't know the name of the song, that's more than ok! I will take areas it plays in as well, so you can list the level name if you don't want to go looking for the exact name.
3. I may have some things wrong cause I'm still basic with music theory. If there is something wrong please don't hesitate to let me know and I'll get it updated. With that however, this one should be a lot better than the last one so hopefully there's only minor things that need to get fixed, if they need to get fixed at all.
4. Have fun with it. I specifically demand it.
5. I will give one hint. That may be from the instrument used to an obscure hint. Who knows what the hint is? I sure don't until you ask.
6. As always, just DM me on here or Discord. Discord is preferred but if you don't gotta Discord on here works just as well.
7. This will run for only a few days and end on February 3rd.

And with that, good luck!

Edit: #6 should be swing but since I'm not good at finale in that regard I cannot notate it as such. So just imagine it in swing please.

This looks fun! I'll do a quiz too!
Cashwarrior1's Pokemon Quiz 1 (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/wdhjozmmeo5quht/AAAH3JNHudm5XwzvLxnpKobea?dl=0)

There are 20 melodies from any game (main series and spinoffs) of pokémon. There are quite a few repeats (different tunes from the same game), 4 games having 2 melodies represented. It's sectioned in Easy, Normal, Hard, and Obscure, with 5 tunes in each category.

How points work:
If you guess the game, you get the base points (different on each difficulty), and if you guess the game and title of the track, you get double points.
Easy: 1 point (2 for game and title of track)
Medium: 2 points (4 for game and title of track)
Hard: 3 points (6 for game and title of track)
Obscure: 5 points (10 for game and title of track)

This means there are a total of 110 possible points for you to get.

Even though they get difficult, I tried to use the most recognizable part/melody of each tune, so if you really listen to a lot of pokemon tracks you should be fine.

Hints: If you want a hint on a track, I will give you the console the game was on, but you only get one hint.

DM me with your answers either here or on the discord!

Static's Miscellaneous Melody Quiz XXVIII (Round 165)
[Folder of Stuff] (https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1Dg_adb7h8nQqOmy-zgMkG7ptGThrZFAh?usp=sharing)

This quiz may or may not be slightly easier than my previous quizzes (probably not).

A few notes about the quiz:

As with several past quizzes, I will be allowing hints. However, you only get as many hints as you have half the # of melodies you guessed, rounded down. For example, if you have 5 melodies, you are allowed 2 hints. The more hints you have available, the less generous they will be.

Additional (optional) hints for everyone, regardless of score:
Spoiler
Console split:
[NES] = 4
[GEN] = 1
[SNES] = 6
[N64] = 3
[PS2] = 1
[GCN] = 2
[GB] = 1
[NDS] = 2

Btw with the hints. Since you don't all know me that well, I'll explain how simple these hints are. At least one of these becomes obvious by looking at the main site, at least another by simply Googling the clue, and at least one more by simple word association (synonym/antonym). Just a fun way to give a little help but not directly.

"Thrashard in the Cave" – [PS1] Castlevania Chronicles

Timestamp: 0:18

This game sucks for a Classicvania. Never liked playing it, I dont even know if I've beaten it. Music also sucks for the most part, Tower of Dolls is the only good track. Levi will throw hands with me when he reads this.

"Clocktower of Causalty" – [GBA] Castlevania: Harmony of Dissonance

Timestamp: 0:08

This game. This game exists. Does it have a great OST? No. Is it a good CV game? It's average.

"Cross Your Heart" – [TG16] Castlevania: Rondo of Blood

Timestamp: 0:44

I was picky on this one. Only 3 versions of this song exists, 2 of them being featured in games. Why this one wasn't used is beyond me cause it's the best version of it.

Title: Re: The NSM Guess-That-Melody Quiz! - Levi's 3rd Quiz
Post by: LeviR.star on February 10, 2021, 06:38:54 PM
Now it's time for another Levi quiz! An even easier one this time around, too!

Let's get down to business! Round 4 of...

The NSM PrettyFrequently Guess-That-Melody Quiz!

I've gotten some flack for using an overabundance of chiptune music for my melodies, so for this round, we're going for a special theme! These fifteen melodies are from fifteen different consoles! That's right, not a single console repeats!

As a bonus hint, the following consoles will not appear:

- Sega Master System
- Sega Game Gear
- Philips CD-i
- Virtual Boy
- Satellaview
- Atari 7800

Look how generous I'm being! 8)

There's something in here for just about everyone in this quiz. As a reminder, the first twelve melodies are at a normal difficulty, and the last three are especially obscure, but still notable in some sense. Make me proud, quizzers.

Here's Quiz #4!

2.10.21 Melody Quiz.zip (https://www.dropbox.com/s/mot5v6g8cphwk2k/2.10.21%20Melody%20Quiz.zip?dl=1)

Knock yourselves out! I'll post the answers once I'm feeling up to it. That could be a while from now

"Dusk Dunes" – [Wii] Kirby's Epic Yarn

Timestamp: 0:56
YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/QmVjQ3ylcAg?t=56)

The first of two Kirby melodies.

My favorite track in the game! I love this one so much, which is why I also arranged it years ago. I thought this one would be tricky out of context, but several people still managed to place it fairly easily.

"Rogueport" – [GCN] Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door

Timestamp: 1:27
YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/iTYnay4WYTI?t=87)

The first of five Mario melodies.

This melody alone was honestly, like, half the reason I wanted to make a single-measure quiz in the first place. This measure is really distinctive but easy to miss if you haven't listened to the track closely.

"Courtroom Lobby ~ The First Prelude" – [NDS] Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney

Timestamp: 0:04
YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/x71nJaLGZPo?t=4)

Wow, six people guessing an Ace Attorney track! That makes me happy. This is probably my favorite courtroom lobby theme in the series, so I'm glad it's well known. The part I picked is technically a bassline, but it's so distinctive that it basically counts as a melody.

Quotemastersuperfan: did you ever find #3 on my quiz lol
Radiak488417: i haven't looked at your quiz in a long time
Radiak488417: oh that one
Radiak488417: no i didn't find it
Radiak488417: i thought it might be a bass fill from the court theme from aa1 but nope
mastersuperfan: you are close
Radiak488417: i know it's aa
Radiak488417: i can hear the bass instrument in my head
mastersuperfan: you really should get this point lol

Awwww yeah. I haven't even played any Xenoblade games, but this is definitely one of the best tracks in the series. It makes me very happy that four other people got this too, even if that list doesn't include the person who used three Xeno tracks in their last quiz...

The first of two Pokémon melodies.

I was worried that this one wouldn't be easily recognizable, but it looks like the rhythm was distinctive enough for most PMD fans to get it. This is a cool track. (Well, given the setting, maybe "cool" isn't the right word, but you get what I mean.)

"Jubilife City" – [NDS] Pokémon Diamond & Pearl Versions

Timestamp: 0:01
YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/82ibCg9_fZA)

The second of two Pokémon melodies. Also appears in Pokémon X & Y. (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aWTtLUeODLQ)

Yes, just like last time, the randomizer put the main series Pokémon city track right after the PMD track near the beginning of the quiz again. Don't ask me why.

Interesting how this one received fewer guesses than the PMD one. I thought this would be pretty widely recognized, but only four people got it instantly while one person didn't get it until 34 minutes before the round closed...

"The Last Desperate Struggle" – [NDS] Ghost Trick: Phantom Detective

Once again, the randomizer puts the most obscure track at #7. I didn't expect many people to get this, but it's a great game (from the writer of the Ace Attorney trilogy) with great music, so I used it anyway. Highly recommended if you like story-based puzzle games.

This one was a bit mean. I had no idea how many people would recognize this run, but it turned out to be fewer than I expected. The people who got it thought it was pretty distinctive, though...

Quotemastersuperfan: also perhaps not surprisingly, you are still only one of two people with Lifelight

Latios: it seems pretty straightforward to me

I feel like that banjo part at the beginning is so distinctive that it's hard not to remember this one if you've played Mario Kart Wii before. Accordingly, a majority of participants got this.

"Death by Glamour" – [PC] Undertale

Timestamp: 0:43
YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/2TgO-tN5wAM?t=43)

Unsurprisingly, this tied with #14 for being the most widely recognized melody in this quiz. I kind of forgot that this measure was based on Metal Crusher, oops. There were so many distinctive measures in this track that I could've picked, so I just selected one at random.

QuoteTrasdegi: is #10 that undertale song?
mastersuperfan: which one
Trasdegi: metal crusher
mastersuperfan: ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
mastersuperfan: almost
Trasdegi: hmm, metal crusher is a bit slower, a bit lower-pitched and has 1 less note
mastersuperfan: you're
mastersuperfan: really close
mastersuperfan: what is the more well known alternative to Metal Crusher
Trasdegi: uuuuuuh

QuoteWah: i was looking at 10
Wah: but even then, i don't think it's what i noticed was similar
Wah: because the end bit of death by glamour is very similar, but neither uses grace notes, nor has the last note at the end
Wah: (also identical tempo and time sig, which is funny)
mastersuperfan: uh
Wah: did you
mastersuperfan: :thonk:
Wah: transcribe bad
mastersuperfan: no
Wah: or am i just noticing a coincidence
mastersuperfan: it's
mastersuperfan: not a coincidence
Wah: it's what then

"Don't speak her name!" – [3DS] Fire Emblem Awakening

Timestamp: 1:51
YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/aFY5TPI-kaU?t=111)

Well, I was hoping for maybe a little more than just one person to get this one, considering that it's arguably the most iconic track in the game after Id (Purpose)... but then again, not a lot of people got Id (Purpose) when I used it on Round 29, so maybe I shouldn't be too surprised.

That said, this track is truly amazing. (It's also four minutes long before it loops.)

Huh, this one surprised me the most in terms of how few people got it. That said, I can tell that it's a tricky measure to recognize out of context. Kudos to the three people who got it.

Wow, I'm impressed by how many people got this one; I didn't think this track would be that well known. That said, this particular measure is notorious for sounding like something I used on a recent quiz... (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xecWX51PElI)

A tricky measure from one of the most well known Super Circuit tracks. I was worried that it would be either too obvious or too difficult, but it looks like I hit a happy medium with the number of people who guessed it correctly.

Alright lads, let's do this!

Welcome to the first (and hopefully not final) Melody Quiz a la Weegee. I'm your host, Jake_Luigi.

Over the course of this week (and perhaps the next as well, depending on how 'generous' I am), you will all be fighting for the chance to be named 'winner' of my quiz. What does this get you? Nothing really, unless the satisfaction of winning makes you happy. This lets me toy with your emotions, so whether you win or not really isn't my problem.

I know what you're all thinking: 'Dude. You're letting the power get to your head."
And you would be right! I like the sound of my own 'voice' in these circumstances. Anyhoo...

Here's how this'll work:
You go to the Dropbox link below and download the files that you feel are needed to complete the quiz.
After a listen, pm me your answers over Discord (or on here if you prefer, but I will not be checking as often).
I'll let ya know what you've gotten right and what is wrong.
If you don't know what it is, feel free to complain. It only makes me stronger.

After seeing how well it worked with Static's quiz, I'll be using my own hint system as well.

How the hints work:
Everyone starts out with 1 hint to even out the metaphorical playing field.
Hints will not deduct any points, HOWEVER, if there is a tie, it will be broken by the amount of hints used.
Getting 5 melodies will get you an extra hint.
Getting 10 melodies will get you an extra hint on top of that.
Getting 15 gets you nothing. Heck, you're probably gonna win if you have 15. Could be wrong though.
There are two secret tasks. If you complete one of them, you get a hint. Complete both within five minutes of each other? Two hints. Complete one and then the other much later? You still only get the one hint. There is potential for 5 hints.
And no, I'm not telling you what the tasks are. That would make them not secret. Duh.

Also, if requested, I may do an extra hint about how the quiz is structured (e.g. special order, omitted series, etc.) that will be sent to the Melody Quizzes channel.

I think that's it... so uh without further ado:

Quizzers, let the games...

Ever played through a melody quiz and thought... man, this rhythm isn't distinctive enough?

The Quarter Note Quiz (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/5ttsbsu04mceuxg/AACYm0yDQGN_-f55NnTt0jt3a?dl=0)

As usual, no more than two melodies for any one series. Enjoy! :) (Answers in probably about a week to a week and a half.)

"Game Select" - [Xbox/GCN/PS2] Namco Museum

Timestamp: 0:00

Okay, I'll be real: this one was put here to waste your time. A good chunk of people knew it was Pac-Man something something, but only Levi got it (but he used a release year hint to make things easier).

Hint: It's exactly what you think it is, but with more features (like the one MSF missed that one time).
*(When anyone asked what tune msf missed, I answered 'Galaga'.)

Quote from: LeviR.star#1 sounds suspiciously like pac-man's game start theme
but it doesn't sound like any of the smash remixes
Quote from: Jake_LuigiWell, you could ask for the release year. That could help ;)
Maybe
Quote from: LeviR.stari was getting to that
release date?
Quote from: Jake_LuigiSure thing, gotta get it from Msf I think (or was it Atcero?)
Okay
It's 2001/2002
But the year doesn't change per region (it's changes for some other variable)
Quote from: LeviR.star"some other variable"
for pete's sake
Quote from: Jake_LuigiFine fine

It was 2001/2002 after all

"Whisper and Mantra" - [SNES] Secret of Mana

Timestamp: 0:00

The snippet I used goes throughout almost the entire song. Might have to arrange this one since it's like 25% done with those 12 notes alone lol. Anyhow, as we will soon find out, y'all gotta play some classic SNES RPGs (I'm not saying that I don't as well, but... anyways).

"Mermalair" – [Xbox/GCN/PS2] Spongebob Squarepants: Battle for Bikini Bottom

Timestamp: 15:22

Ok, guys, guys. I know this one is a bit obscure, but hear me out. Besides the fact that this game got remade last year, this song in particular is a heckin' BANGER. Also, this is where you'll see just how long ago I've been planting the seeds...

Quote from: Jake_LuigiOnly games I'd 100% more than once is like Battle For Bikini Bottom and Luigi's Mansion lol
https://youtu.be/WTX60iJvtvY
Quote from: Jake_LuigiAs long as we can agree that Spongebob Squarepants: Battle For Bikini Bottom for the Xbox was clearly the best version, I can live with GCN being the most powerful of the 6th Generation.

Hint: Your hint is that you don't get a hint. This isn't like a sort of riddle, you just don't get one. Can't hecking believe you right now smhmyhead. I mean, I guess my outrage counts as a hint, but still. This is coming from me.

"Title" – [N64] Banjo-Tooie

This is the melody that delayed this quiz for as long as it did. I felt like it just *had* to line up. Anyhow, how many of you remember me posting about my progress throughout the game?

Hint: Um, wait I got it- no, hang on- DANG IT! Look, I'm sorry, it's been a couple of years, ok? Just be glad we get to play it in the 2020s.

And, sadly, Dudeman didn't take the quiz, despite there being three Mega Man songs (yes, three).

"Strago's Theme" – [SNES] Final Fantasy VI

Timestamp: 0:12

Okay, so, Final Fantasy VI? Great game. Soundtrack? HOLY COW DUUUUUUUDE. Anyways, why'd I choose this song in particular? Well, I have a WIP on my thread (https://www.ninsheetmusic.org/forum/index.php?topic=11499.0) and I played it once during a performance night (where I didn't have a piano, so I just played back the file lol).

Quote from: Whoppybones11. FF6 - Strago
Quote from: Jake_Luigi... correct!
How did you know that one out of curiosity?
Quote from: WhoppybonesFF6 is one of my favorite OSTs! It's also the only FF game that I really know anything about. I know a small part of 7, but 6 is where my heart is at.
Tbh, I'm surprised more people DIDN'T get it.

"Homer's Day" – [Xbox/GCN/PS2] The Simpsons Hit and Run

Timestamp: 0:04

This game was never mentioned by... well, anyone on the server. However, I thought it'd be a nice curveball, especially since I knew it's been used as background music in YouTube videos of the past.

Also, I was waiting for Levi or Trasdegi to find the missing 'a' in 'smart' to lead them to The Simpsons. Levi got it after a while, leading to a fantastic moment:

Quote from: LeviR.starahh, here it is
The Simpsons Hit & Run Soundtrack
homer's day
i am so smart
i am so smart
smrt
i mean
smart

AND both of them had the same method of thinking when I said that the hint was very deliberate.

Quote from: TrasdegiWell, first letters of the first sentence make "tit mom hit", but I should probably look for something else :thinking:

Hint: This is the most obscure melody here, I think. Anyhow, us '00 to '05ers are too smrt (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wv4eTE0aUiQ) for the others, right?

Cashwarrior1's Quiz! (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/ab45j7enlqawnad/AAB3Y5WsjMoQHq6J3CNHGGeTa?dl=0)

This quiz has a few rules. Firstly, it's only one track per series, meaning there are 20 different series in this. I also cannot use pokemon music since I'm doing a pokemon themed quiz, so no pokemon (happy now?). Points will work the way I usually do them, if you guess the game title you get 1 point and if you guess the game and song title you get 2 points (a total of 40 points). Also, if you guess the game series, I will let you know if you are correct.

Hints:
You can use one of these two hints on all tracks (I don't know if the tracks are hard or not, so I'm being nice with hints). Since you can use a hint on every track, there's a hidden point counter. If anyone ties, the person who used less hints will win the tie (if the hint count ties then it'll just be a tie).

Remake? If you ask for the remake hint, I'll tell you if the game has a remake or not (re-releases don't count, the game has to be a "dx," "hd," etc.). If the game has a remake, that narrows your search down to games that got remakes.

New or Old? For this hint I'll tell you if the game is new or old based on its original release (I'm going by first thing I see on google btw). New games have been released within the last 5 years. Old games have been released 15 years or further. If it's between that, I'll say "neither new nor old."

In addition to getting these hints, I'll be announcing what series each track is from on Sunday, February 28th. The quiz ends on March 3rd, I'm hoping to get a lot of answers!

Welcome back, everyone, to...

The NSM PrettyFrequently Guess-That-Melody Quiz!

Once again, we had a pretty great turnout on this quiz! And unlike last time, our quizzers managed to recognize every single melody -- that's what I call a success. So without further ado, here are the answers!

The Answers
Normal Section


Melody #1
1. [WiiU] Yoshi's Woolly World - "Yarn Yoshi Takes Shape!"



Timestamp: 0:27


Quote[8:46 PM] ShyYoshiGuy: I've literally arranged #1

This theme was used in most of this game's trailers, so even if you haven't played this game, you've most likely heard this song. And what a fun one it is, too. Totaka's so good at what he does.

Quote[9:32 PM] Dudeman: #2: Wow, this one's quirky. The weird jumps at the end sound familiar. Gives me GB Zelda vibes.

He was on the right track!

... hrmm. Two correct guesses. Well, that's better than that of my last Metroid melody.

Melody #4
4. [NES] Mega Man 2 - "Air Man Stage"



Timestamp: 0:38


Quote[9:32 PM] Dudeman: #4: NANKAI YATTEMO NANKAI YATTEMO AIRMAN GA TAO-SE-NA-I YOOOOOOOOO

Contrary to popular belief, Air Man is not hard; on normal mode, he dies with three hits from his weakness, and takes more damage from the Mega Buster than most other bosses. He's just nearly impossible to beat without taking damage at least once; the early Mega Man devs weren't too keen on playtesting.

Quote[9:07 PM] mastersuperfan: #6 is from FE3H... somewhere
[9:08 PM] mastersuperfan: is it Life at Garreg Mach Monastery
[9:08 PM] LeviR.star: no
[9:08 PM] mastersuperfan: bah
[9:08 PM] mastersuperfan: I'll find it at some point
[9:08 PM] mastersuperfan: ...could you at least pick a part that isn't the literal main theme
[9:08 PM] LeviR.star: what?
[9:08 PM] mastersuperfan: #6
[9:08 PM] mastersuperfan: the part you picked
[9:09 PM] mastersuperfan: that's the FE3H leitmotif that appears in like 80% of the OST
[9:09 PM] LeviR.star: well how was i supposed to know
[9:09 PM] mastersuperfan: well if you didn't know, you could always accept anything else with the motif in it in the same key?
[9:09 PM] LeviR.star: it's in the same key?
[9:09 PM] mastersuperfan: yes
[9:10 PM] LeviR.star: fck
[9:10 PM] LeviR.star: that's it
[9:10 PM] LeviR.star: no more FE
[9:10 PM] mastersuperfan: it's in the same key for most of the time it appears in the OST
[9:10 PM] LeviR.star: i give up
[9:10 PM] mastersuperfan: Life at Garreg Mach Monastery is the exact same tempo too
[9:11 PM] LeviR.star: the night of the ball is the track i chose
[9:11 PM] mastersuperfan: ah
[9:11 PM] LeviR.star: if they're so similar
[9:11 PM] LeviR.star: what's the point of calling it a "new track"
[9:11 PM] mastersuperfan: well the rest of the Night of the Ball is not the main motif
[9:11 PM] mastersuperfan: you just happened to pick the one part that was
[9:11 PM] LeviR.star: not a FE fan
[9:11 PM] LeviR.star: and at this point, that's not changing

Apologies for this one, too! Apparently, it uses the motif heard in lots of other songs, notably, "Life at Garreg Mach Monastery". This is what I get for not knowing Fire Emblem music.

-- but my man Dudeman still recognized this specific track, so he gets an extra half of a point!

[6:16 PM] Atcero: like im not shitting you it was already on the song from the LAST time i had to look up this song
[6:17 PM] Atcero: but thank you

I think Radiak said it best. Thanks to a single line of dialogue and GilvaSunner's lack of context, the whole Internet's got this song confused with another one, which is actually played in Grape Gardens. But look at it this way: it was either this, or "Orange Ocean". There's no real way to win here.

Quote[9:16 PM] mastersuperfan: #11 sounds like Mega Man lol

Yep, you guys fell for it. The ol' "song-that-sounds-like-Mega-Man-but-isn't" trick. This was also a good way to get a console rep for the Game Boy Color.

I always knew Yume Nikki was a niche game, but apparently it's less popular around here than I thought. In hindsight, I should've swapped this melody with #15 over in the obscure section. Good thing Yug had my back.

Quote[9:32 PM] Dudeman: #13: Main Theme - Nintendo's E3 Presentation 2008 Wii Music (I actually had this game, once upon a time. Barely played it. Shit's bad, yo.)

Quote[3:52 AM] Trasdegi: WOW
[3:52 AM] Trasdegi: 13 is the only one I have xD
[3:53 AM] Trasdegi: It's wii music

Quote[7:57 PM] Whoppybones: Found this by complete accident. A jazz arrangement of the song was on my Youtube recommended page. Thank you, YouTube algorithm!

Thank God people know this song. This game was partially responsible for me getting involved with music as a kid, and I still enjoy playing it with my sibs to this day.

Yeah, yeah, guys, I get it. This melody didn't belong in the obscure section like I thought it did. It's at least relieving to know time hasn't forgotten this gem.

A bit of history: when School Days was broadcasting, a murder quite similar to some events in the last episode actually happened a few days before its airing. So it was cancelled, 30min of norvegian boats pictures with classical music were broadcasted instead, and obviously, this became a meme.

Of course, this is Air on the G String. And unfortunately, I didn't know there was actually an anime based completely on it... Sorry MSF! I'll still give you your 0.20 points for G Senjou no Maou :p

Hands-down the best anime movie I've ever watched. All 3 endings of the movie trilogy still give me shivers everytime I listen to them. Unfortunately, nobody got it :(

"Canalave City" – Pokémon Diamond and Pearl

I've also never played this game in my life, but I'd assume this probably one of the most iconic tracks in the game from what I've seen.

Dekkadeci's Quiz

Shucks, upon reflection, this quiz was tougher than I thought - I originally anticipated one melody possibly having no correct answerers, but I didn't anticipate another melody having only 1 correct answerer.

#1
"Vellumental Battle" – Paper Mario: The Origami King

Timestamp: 0:00
YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/xxUu7Yl1YMA)

The Vellumental Battle (Thinking) theme also counts!

This theme's opening riff hooked me right off the bat. The rest of the theme is worse, IMO (except when the riff comes back), but that experience was enough to convince me that all you need of this theme for this quiz is the first 2 measures.

I was going to transcribe the drums for this as drum beats for this quiz, but then I tried transcribing Melody #2 and figured I'd hold all my melodies to the same standard.

#2
"'Friends and the Sound of Those Crossing Blades'/友と交わるその剣の音" – Kirby Star Allies

Timestamp: 0:43
YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/tVbETM5kKs8?t=43)

Just mentioning that this is Meta Knight's theme from Kirby Star Allies also counts.

Yes, I leaned into the above by quoting the one portion of Meta Knight's new theme that quotes his old theme. I honestly thought that people would pick up on that. My large hint for this melody leaned towards that, too (namely the similarity of Meta Knight's theme to Ridley's theme).

Don't you hate it when the only official name for a theme is in Japanese, and you can't completely trust any of the fan translations?

To my shock, only one person got this correct, despite Meta Knight being a popular character with music that is often in demand. Remind me that Kirby Star Allies music is considerably harder than I keep anticipating it to be - the last time I tried music from that game in a quiz, nobody got it correct, even though I picked what I still suspect is the most popular theme in that game - Hyness's Phase 2 boss theme. (I suppose it's a sign that I keep forgetting the Friendly Field theme when I remember the Stage 1 themes of the previous 3 main-series Kirby games.)

#3
"Onslaught" – Final Fantasy Brave Exvius

Timestamp: 1:12
YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/F--EHMrZU6c?t=72)

Mentioning that this is the regular boss theme from Final Fantasy Brave Exvius also counts.

Note that the timestamped portion I actually used sounds very similar to the opening riff at 0:00 except it doesn't slow down at the end.

Oddly, I first heard about this theme from Meinl Cymbals's YouTube channel. It rocks, though!

I've otherwise never heard about Final Fantasy Brave Exvius's music, though, even though I've heard about that game more often, so I figured this was the hardest melody in this quiz - one that had a fair chance of nobody getting it correct. ...And nobody got it correct.
[close]

#4
"Those Who Stand Against Our Path" – Xenoblade Chronicles 2

Timestamp: 0:00
YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/GVmBKxjk1DE)

You gotta love the tritones in this initial melody.

I anticipated this being one of the easier melodies in this quiz, and I was correct. I didn't fully anticipate this one being the melody that the most people got correct, though.

It's coincidence that this is the same riff repeated twice - whenever I sing this theme, I always sing the 4th measure differently from the version I notated.
[close]

#5
"The Darkest Lord (First Phase)/Battle (Ultra Demon Lord)" – Miitopia

Timestamp: 1:03
YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/7vRf3WPEoaw?t=63)

It does seem that people keep forgetting there's a Phase 2 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d2PzfSGLt-Y) to this final boss, so I also took "Darkest Lord" only.

I was debating using another obscure melody for this quiz, this time one I've transcribed for piano earlier, but then I figured I'd rather not risk making this quiz too difficult and reused the Darkest Lord Phase 1 theme instead.

Yes, I purposefully picked this melody (which I didn't use the last time I picked this theme) because it involves the same riff four times in a row. Actually, the original theme kinda makes that eight times in a row.

"X, The Legend" – Mega Man Zero

Ok, this was the obscure track for the list. I was hoping there'd be a knight in shining armor, taking the gold on my quiz and getting a 5/5... but every quizzer was felled from this melody. It's a decent song though. Expect an arrangement at some point. Maybe.

To my surprise, I don't think this has even been used before. I put this one first because I thought it would be easiest and most obvious (arguably THE most iconic track from Majora's Mask?), but based on the number of guesses, that was clearly not the case. The other Majora's Mask melody on Jake_Luigi's quiz got more guesses than this...

Trasdegi's Quiz

Alright, this one was intended to be sorted from hardest to easiest, and it semi-worked out I guess?

#1
"Musical "Carnival Pokémon"" - Pokémon Black/White

Timestamp: 0:54
YouTube Link (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cuO9laf6wiY&t=54)

A devilish melody to use, like #1 in cash's last quiz. He was the only one to get it, but I'm quite happy he did.
[close]

#2
"Circles" – Osu!

Timestamp: 0:54
YouTube Link (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g9IDXkPSP84&t=54s)

This one rang a few bells here and there, but nobody actually found it...
[close]

#3
"World 5" – New Super Mario Bros

Timestamp: 0:05
YouTube Link (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZmiTAEqMIxs&t=5s)

This one ended up being the most guessed melody of the quiz, and I'm glad so many people remember this game!
[close]

#4
"Canalave City (Day)" – Pokémon Diamond/Pearl/Platinum

Timestamp: 0:05
YouTube Link (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qvCboyezCWw&t=5s)

With 16 quizmakers and 80 melodies, some overlap was bound to happen :p
[close]

#5
"Toad's Theme" – Luigi's Mansion

Timestamp: 0:03
YouTube Link (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ekr8JF-Whe0&t=3s)

Seems like this one wasn't so distinctive as I thought...
[close]

WaluigiTime64's Quiz

WaluigiTime64 here.

Instead of following instructions, I chose to make my potluck entry not easy. It's not terribly hard either though, with each melody being very notable for each series/circle. The difficulty comes in how distinct and unrelated most of these are.

#1
"Thwomp Ruins" – Mario Kart 8

Timestamp: 0:20
YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/P45IbrhL-io?t=20)

That being said, this was the only one I didn't design in that way. It's just my typical Mario Kart representation, complete with tricky section to mess with people.
[close]

#2
"Stage 1 Theme (Main Theme)" – Super Mario Land 3: Wario Land

Timestamp: 0:03
YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/SEfibdDkobI?t=3)

It's the main theme of the first two Wario Land games (like in Super Mario Land 2, this means that it's the motif you hear in almost every stage), so if you missed it, it also means you're missing out on the first two Wario Land games. Get on that.
[close]

#3
"Doll Judgement ~ The Girl Who Played With People's Shapes" – Touhou 7: Perfect Cherry Blossom

Timestamp: 1:02
YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/3K38Z8qAkqo?t=62)

Expected Touhou Project representation, though only one person got it. I picked this track (and this specific part of the track) to reference a particularly well-known remix (https://youtu.be/1pDM6fQUfJs?t=79).
[close]

#4
"Corruption" – Terraria

Timestamp: 0:10
YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/HkZ-Z0u5eGc?t=10)

I keep forgetting just how successful this game is. It's very likely within the top 20 best-selling games of all time, and I know there's always a couple of people around who have played it, but no one seems mention it at all outside of dedicated Terraria discussion forums/chats.
This is also just very catchy.
[close]

#5
"Brain Power" – Sound Voltex II, Cytus II, etc.

Timestamp: 0:47
YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/mj-v6zCnEaw?t=47)

Adrenaline is pumpin'.

Weakforced's Quiz

First quiz; open to criticism :)

#1
"Welcome to Crocodile Isle" – [SNES] Donkey Kong Country 2: Diddy's Kong Quest

Timestamp: 0:04
YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/1bDxmwe9yKc?t=4)

I love the Donkey Kong Country games but I've never played this one. I know the first seconds of the track from watching speedruns of the game on stream, so it was fun to hear the rest.
[close]

#2
"Yoshi's Song" – [N64] Yoshi's Story

Timestamp: 0:25
YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/d2c1qLVb2JI?t=25)

This one was the most guessed on my quiz likely because it's in Smash Bros. Yoshi's Story is full of similar-sounding tracks so getting the title took some poking around for most guessers.
[close]

#3
"Revali's Theme" – [WiiU/SW] The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild

Timestamp: 0:09
YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/R1vDupMEds4?t=9)

I haven't played Breath of the Wild yet so I phoned a friend who said this one would be recognizable and I enjoyed the tune. It was guessed by a good number of people as well.
[close]

#4
"Peach Gardens" – [NDS] Mario Kart DS

Timestamp: 0:09
YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/ko5Ea635M7U?t=9)

This is one of my very favorites from the Mario Kart series, which is saying a lot when compared to some of the newer live-recorded soundtrack. A few people initially guessed Delfino Plaza, which makes sense.
[close]

#5
"Twinleaf Town" – [NDS] Pokemon Diamond/Pearl/Platinum

Timestamp: 0:00
YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/HhDBpjabNyg)

When I was making the quiz I heard about the new remakes for Diamond and Pearl so I decided to pull one from here. I didn't play any of the games from the Sinnoh region but this track sounds nostalgia-inducing.
[close]
[close]

Whoppy's Quiz

Tbh, I'm kind of surprised that so few of you knew these songs.

#1
"Big Rock Finish" – Rhythm Heaven

Timestamp: 1:25
YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/g5uHzCJflgs?t=85)

I was expecting this song to be much harder than the other ones.
[close]

#2
"The Lumpy Pumpkin" – The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword

Timestamp: 1:05
YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/SgIjJWYUxac?t=65)

Only msf got this one? Seriously? I guess I DID choose a more obscure part...
[close]

#3
"Staff Roll" – Super Mario Galaxy 2

Timestamp: 2:24
YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/lhNdvIdpEoM?t=144)

The specific key signature was a little cheap, but I believe that everyone who guessed an SMG2 song got it eventually.
[close]

#4
"Mt. Koltz" – Final Fantasy VI

Timestamp: 0:07
YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/sA8IEAmD01E?t=7)

It's funny how during the results of Levi's quiz, I was so upset with people for trash talking FF6, but almost no one even bothered to search that OST.
[close]

#5
"Phendrana Drifts (Deep Lake Area)" – Metroid Prime

Timestamp: 0:00
YouTube Link (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hyUi2hXKU6s)

I'm not too surprised that no one got this. My transcription was a bit weird, but it's my favorite song from the game, so I don't care.

Cashwarrior's Pokemon Quiz 3 (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/z4tqtjlcsdrv0zs/AADUvdUocjUWKfG-ibVquSKra?dl=0)

:o Rules are the same as last time.
1 point for guessing the game, 2 points for guessing the track name + game (make sure to tell me the game, some people forget to)
For hints, you can get 1 hint and you can ask what generation the game came out (Anything that releases after the first game in a new generation counts).

Results will be announced on Wednesday the 24th

The schedule is looking a bit empty after the potluck so I thought I'd make another one.

Guess-That-Melody Quiz: MSF Round 32 (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/524kv5llunaa0pt/AABH96MNj6rOWrytWlIsuYbka?dl=0)

There are 4 Mario melodies here. Yoshi counts as Mario; Wario and Donkey Kong do not. Otherwise, no series is used more than twice. Good luck! Answers to come probably next Saturday.

Cashwarrior's Quiz 2 (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/g7fcc5h0cyf0uhr/AAClSrJwjmtJl0fYldxCO_kPa?dl=0)

Rules are the same as last time (https://www.ninsheetmusic.org/forum/index.php?topic=9281.msg422907#msg422907) except for how hints work.

This time for hints I'm stealing the wheel of fortune bonus round lol. So, you can choose 3 Consonants and 1 Vowel to be used for every track. When you choose your letters, you can then choose which track you want to use the hint on (you can use it on every track) and I will give the title of the track filling in the blanks with the letters you chose. For example, if you chose F, S, T, E; the title of the track would be __e_____ __t_.

Hear ye, hear ye, may I present to you for Kirby's 29th Anniversary,

Kirby's Epic Quiz! (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/6gw42zti00yltc0/AAB1CwB1wprN25-hYTmXZIxla?dl=0)

I promise you this will be the biggest anniversary event for the pink puffball this year.  The quiz is structured so that the first 10 are balanced for anyone to play.  The latter half though, like the True Arena, is intended to test even Kirby veterans with an ear for the series. 

Get taking!  The results will be posted on April 10th.  The quiz is out of 40, with the game and song name each counting for 1 point. 

Either DM me your answers on Discord or PM me on the forum

I think this quiz went very well, there were a lot of answers and a lot of hints were used (woohoo).

Alright, this track has too many names. Interestingly, most people guessed "Flowers of Antimony," rather than "The Explodatorium." I was expecting most people to simply answer "Plague Knight Stage," which is how I remember it tbh lol.

So uhhh, this is what happens when you try to put a melody from a game who's music you know nothing about. Honestly, I found a playlist of "popular tracks" from professor layton, and just picked a random one... turns out that's not the best way to represent a series lol.

Hey everybody!  Thank you to all who took Kirby's Epic Quiz.  Here are the results.  Timestamps are included for where the melody appears.

#1 (10/10)

Green Greens - Kirby's Dream Land 0:06
Yeah, this was easy.  Somewhat of a fakeout for what's to come?

#6 (5/10)

Kine the Fish - Kirby's Dream Land 2 0:07
First 5, meant to be fairly easy, pretty well known. Next 5, still on easier side but maybe a little more lesser known
Most probably know this from RtDL as Happy Mambo, but this has a slightly slower tempo.  That said, no one that guessed said RtDL or Mambo

This is such a cool song occasionally see in memes.  Maybe not your first Air Ride OST memory though.

#10 (3/10)

Submarine Suburbs - Kirby: Planet Robobot 1:07
Never had really heard the Robobot OST before this quiz and this one stood out when I was finding songs.  I suppose I could've used some slurs or something for this part but I'll concede it is a bit more obscure.  Only the Kirby sages got this one.

11-20 are considered the True Arena of the quiz, getting progressively harder.  As the results show though, I kind of got the order of difficulty wrong haha

I didn't realize this one was such a fan favorite though.

#14 (1/10)

Kirby and the Rainbow Curse - Dark Crafter (Final Boss) 0:16
One of a pair that only Levi got.  It was tough to pick a rainbow curse one because so many are remixes.

LeviR.star

#15 (1/10)

Devil's Theme (Devilish Mode) - Kirby's Extra Epic Yarn 0:15
Levi also only got this.  No repeat games on this quiz, technically.  New songs in remakes were not excluded.

#19 (9/10)

Kirby Super Star Stacker - Dedede 0:04
This probably shouldn't have been as high as it was on the quiz.  With some prodding, almost everyone got this if not outright on their own.  I just like how it's like a beta Masked Dedede theme.

#20 (3/10)

Ripple Star Catacombs - Kirby 64: The Crystal Shards 0:10
Last, but certainly not least, this one was a little bit of a troll.  I went back and forth at first if this was fair game as a melody line, but ended up going with it to see if anyone would get it.  Sure enough, several did, and it was more than some of the other ones on this quiz.  Kudos to the Kirby sages who got this

Quoteripple star catacombs is genuinely one of the few video game songs to actually unnerve me

Cashwarrior's Pokemon Quiz 4 (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/3x4i5s0z8k05sbw/AABvohYABoS3lHOh7-v85bvsa?dl=0)

This one is a little easier (I think) than the last one. The rules are same as usual (1 point for guessing the game, two for guessing game and title) but I'm changing how hints work. This time you have three hints that you can use.
Soft hint: I'll tell you the generation the game released in
Regular hint: I will tell you what year the game released (going by first release date)
Heavy hint: I will give a synonym of the track title

You can only use each hint once, but you can use it however you want. You can have all three hints on one track or use each hint on a different track.

Also, here's the current stats (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1pEvH4cZO1Etl1CKxqGYr1KDIsONaekCW5a3MQOsaAPA/edit?usp=sharing) (as of last quiz) if you want to see what gen and game people guess the most. It might help you if you ask who answered a question.

[10:43 PM] mastersuperfan: nice, now everyone has 20
[10:44 PM] Atcero: No I didn't say it
[10:45 PM] mastersuperfan: that counts
[10:45 PM] mastersuperfan: my metric for counting something as correct is "clear indication that the guesser knows what it is"

Quote[7:03 PM] Whoppybones: I figured 20 was wrong. However, everyone in the NSM Discord was objecting to it from principle, so I figured that was worth a shot.
[7:04 PM] mastersuperfan: congratulations for being the only one who doesn't know #20
[7:04 PM] mastersuperfan: that's probably a good thing
[7:04 PM] Whoppybones: Your perfect song is ruined. One thing to say:

[Folder of Stuff] (https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/16g_0gohVGE-FCLg_RF4EFXLyW51cX0zS?usp=sharing)

Since it worked so well last time, I will be allowing hints again. You only get as many hints as you have half the # of melodies you guessed, rounded down. For example, if you have 5 melodies, you are allowed 2 hints. The more hints you have available, the less generous they will be.

Additional (optional) hints for everyone, regardless of score. Feel free to look at one or both.
Optional Hint 1
Console split:
[NES] = 1
[SNES] = 5
[PS1] = 1
[N64] = 2
[PS2] = 1
[GBA] = 2
[GCN] = 1
[NDS] = 1
[3DS] = 2
[SW] = 1
[close]
Optional Hint 2
There are two series used twice in this quiz:
Mario
Mega Man

Time for ansners! This time with the fewest participants (7 people) and the highest average (11) and an easy section that is still harder than medium (I swear I will get it right eventually).

#1 (5/7)
Diamond and Pearl - Snowpoint City (Day)
People were saying that this one shouldn't be in the easy category, but I think it worked well.


Kricketune, Latios, Mastersuperfan, Radiak, Trasdegi
[close]
#2 (4/7)
Super Mystery Dungeon - Serene Village
In case you didn't notice, I was doing the starting villages from every mystery dungeon lol


BlueKirby, Latios, Mastersuperfan, Trasdegi
[close]
#3 (6/7)
Sun and Moon - Hau'oli City (Day)
Even though this motif is use all over the place in sun and moon, people were still able to recognize it as Hau'oli so that made me happy


BlueKirby, Latios, Mastersuperfan, Radiak, Trasdegi, Weakforced
[close]
#4 (3/7)
Gold and Silver - Route 29
I thought more people would know this one, but as the recurring theme with these quizzes is, people don't know the older generation music as much


BlueKirby, Latios, Mastersuperfan
[close]
#5 (6/7)
Red and Blue - Rival Appears
Oh wait, scratch that last one, people do know the old generation stuff, just not the route themes (smh)


BlueKirby, Kricketune, Latios, Mastersuperfan, Radiak, Weakforced
[close]
#6 (6.5/7)
X and Y - Camphrier Town
I am so confused why this was the most guessed one on the quiz, I honestly thought this wasn't one people would know (how do more people know this than snowpoint??)


BlueKirby, Latios, Mastersuperfan, Radiak, Trasdegi, Weakforced
(Only guessed game) Kricketune
[close]
#7 (4/7)
Sword and Shield - Slumbering Weald
Tried doing an "easier" gen 8 one this time to see how it goes, seems like people still aren't familiar with the music :p


BlueKirby, Kricketune, Latios, Mastersuperfan
[close]
#8 (4.5/7)
Gold and Silver - Sprout Tower
Honestly thought that more people would know route 29 than this one, but I guess this one has a more distinct melody (oh wait did I say distinct? no it sounds like every other tower theme) than route 29


BlueKirby, Latios, Mastersuperfan, Radiak
(Only guessed game) Kricketune
[close]
#9 (4.5/7)
Diamond and Pearl - Route 225 (Day)
Okay... what's going on... every time I think something is lesser known more people get it than the ones I think they know o.O


BlueKirby, Latios, Mastersuperfan, Radiak
(Only guessed game) Kricketune
[close]
#10 (6/7)
Ruby and Sapphire - Drizzle
Ah yes "drizzle," which has appropriately been renamed to "heavy rain" (still an understatement) in the remakes


BlueKirby, Kricketune, Latios, Mastersuperfan, Radiak, Weakforced
[close]
#11 (4/7)
Mystery Dungeon: Gates to Infinity - Holehills
HOLEHILLLLLLLLSSSSSSSS!!!! More people should know this one, but I suppose it's from GTI and like nobody listens to that soundtrack rip.


BlueKirby, Latios, Mastersuperfan, Trasdegi
[close]
#12 (2/7)
Ranger - Chicole Village
Ah yes, when I want to do difficulty, I pick one from the "I remember playing that in my childhood!!" games.


Latios, Trasdegi
[close]
#13 (6/7)
Black and White - Lostlorn Forest
I.... thought this was a really unknown track... apparently people know it o.O


BlueKirby, Kricketune, Latios, Mastersuperfan, Radiak, Trasdegi
[close]
#14 (3/7)
Mystery Dungeon: Explorers - Quicksand Cave
This is a pretty cool sounding track, but the part I notated is my favorite because it sounds epic and that's why I notated the entire chords >:(


BlueKirby, Latios, Mastersuperfan
[close]
#15 (3/7)
Black and White - Tubeline Bridge
This is the second least known bridge theme in gen 5 I think, I can't even remember what the bridge looks like


BlueKirby, Latios, Radiak
[close]
#16 (4/7)
Super Mystery Dungeon - Gentle Slope Cave
For some reason I keep thinking "oh super mystery dungeon, nobody knows music from that" and "oh GTI came out earlier so more people know it" and misjudging their popularity.


BlueKirby, Latios, Mastersuperfan, Trasdegi
[close]
#17 (1/7)
Ranger - Panula Cave
Thank goodness Trasdegi got this one because I used their arrangement for it lol


Trasdegi

#18 (2.5/7)
Conquest - Water Battle
Recently listened to the pokemon conquest ost, it's pretty good. Wasn't sure how many other people know the music, so this was kind of a test


Latios, Mastersuperfan
(Only guessed game) Kricketune
[close]
#19 (1/7)
Red and Blue - Ending
I was trying to think of what would be the hardest gen 1 track because everything from gen 1 I feel like belongs in the easy and normal category, but I honestly don't remember listening to this one lol


Latios
[close]
#20 (1/7)
Crystal - Mobile Adapter 1
Don't you love it when good music is exclusive and not everyone can listen to it? Same :D

It's been a while...

This quiz has 4 Mario melodies, and no other series is repeated more than twice (where have I heard that before...?)
Good luck and have fun!

A note about #9: the last note should have a pitch bend on it, but the .mid and .mus don't reflect that. Listen to the .mp3 or the .mscz if you want to hear it properly.

Here's something a bit different I did for another place, I thought I'd post it here as well to see how easy/hard this concept would be for you guys.

Edit: Oh right, it would actually be a good idea to explain what this quiz is :p
10 tracks from HGSS with only one instrument playing, and only 1 of them is the actual melody.

i was bored so i decided to finish this one up

BlueKirby's 4th Quiz

i've decided to abandon difficulty this time because i just wanted to try and branch myself to different osts. the overall difficulty is harder, but there are a few easy ones i put in there.

there are 2 Mario, Zelda, Pokemon, and Kirby melodies, as well as 2 Final Fantasy melodies due to a minor error that i was too lazy to fix.

have fun, don't be afraid to ask for hints. there's no limit but don't abuse them.

This track goes by a lot of different titles, including "Stage 2", "Overworld", "Skyworld" and "The Sky World". A fair amount of people know this one from its inclusion in SSBB's Subspace Emissary as one of the first level themes. Also, Levi has informed me that the specific section that I used is actually quoting a popular English folk song titled "The Girl I Left Behind", which I had no idea about when I picked this one. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Girl_I_Left_Behind

I think this was a bad idea... but I did it anyway.

MSF Quiz 35: Arrhythmic Edition (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/tcboai0ao9jguwh/AABr9Bnaumij7lkv6IJE8vfxa?dl=0)

As always, four Mario melodies, and no other series is repeated more than twice. There will be a hint system to come at some point (TBD).

Atcero's Quiz

Here be the Green Bean Hotdish ingrediants. I can't believe (as of writing this) my quiz has the 3rd highest guess rate. Something feels odd :squint:

#1
"Spark Man" – Mega Man 3

Timestamp: 0:25
YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/6J5cN87c2yM?t=25)

I completely forgot BlueKirby used this in one of her quizzes with the exact same measure. I had a feeling someone used it but I forgot, as it was half a year ago.

As I said in the discord, no Castlevania. But I did still have a piece by Michiru Yamane, so it's fine for me.

Quote from: mastersuperfanI don't recognize #3 from the PDF but it just... looks like desert music

Quote from: Maelstrom3 is a desert song in mario maker

It is a desert theme so it's close enough

"Secunda" – The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim

Timestamp: 0:00
YouTube Link (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qC9Ri2hZsos)

Honestly one of the best original songs to come from Skyrim. There is something about hearing this in the dead of night with a clear sky seeing both the moons and exploring or heading back to home base after a long quest.

I was mean on this one and only took something that was akin to Forest Area/Stage/Theme. I did not take Cabbage Caverns or any variations unless it had the same name.

Since this is quite obscure, I decided I'd also accept any other instance of this version of zelda's lullaby; like Yuga Turns Zelda into a Painting (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BP-HUSlbImY) and Zelda's Lullaby from Spirt Tracks (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CoetyLr9AX4)

Dekkadeci's Quiz

I thought this quiz would be easier than my last potluck one - I've heard other people's rearrangements of every single theme on this quiz (one before its game was fully released), and I thought people would share enough of my music tastes or common venues to recognize my quiz melodies. Alas, this apparently wasn't the case, as nobody got more than one melody correct on this quiz.

#1
"The Rebel Army"/"Rebel Army Theme" – Final Fantasy II

Timestamp: 0:00
YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/_UlKXZEl7n0)

There are some pretty spectacular solo piano arrangements of this theme out there - search them out and give them a listen! I did.

Even then, this is a rather underrated Final Fantasy theme, so I expected this to be one of the less often correctly guessed melodies on this quiz. I suppose I'm lucky that one person got this correct.
[close]

#2
"Battle! Chairman Rose"/"Battle! Rose" – Pokemon Sword & Pokemon Shield

Timestamp: 0:11
YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/ugyONbAGE8E?t=11)

Just mentioning that this is Chairman Rose's theme also took.

I think that bassline that's in a significant portion of Chairman Rose's theme (and often is the melody) is pretty cool, and based on the number of arrangements I've seen of this theme, I think quite a few people agree with me.

Especially since the Pokemon music community seems to remix main-series Pokemon themes at crazy high speeds, I thought this would be the easiest melody on this quiz. To my surprise, only one person got this correct.
[close]

#3
"Monk Maz Koshia" – The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild

Timestamp: 0:00
YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/-GEyO-imPvQ)

Any Monk Maz Koshia phase counts.

I'm a touch surprised this is the most commonly correctly guessed melody on my quiz, but in retrospect, I painfully transcribed the prominent piano part of the first seconds of this theme for this quiz (and may have botched the inner and bottom parts of the dyads and chords). Turns out that the piano transcription of this theme I fell in love with at first listen (and then I was inspired to listen to the original theme) wasn't completely accurate after all melody-wise.
[close]

#4
"Falling Down" – Mega Man Zero 4

Timestamp: 0:51
YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/NunWagO59c8?t=51)

Not to be confused with Undertale's "Fallen Down".

This theme got a boatload of GaMetal requests back in the day, and since I've seen a fair few big Mega Man music fans in this forum - and the mixed meter and syncopation in this theme is quite prominent - I thought I could get away with an easier-to-transcribe melody deep in this theme.

Turns out I was wrong - nobody got this melody correct.
[close]

#5
"Battle Against the Ones We Inevitably Confront"/"対峙すべき者達との戦い" – Bravely Default II

Timestamp: 0:11
YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/0Wxn7X2Gek0?t=11)

Saying that this is the Asterisk battle theme from the Bravely Default II demo also counts.

This was one of the most prominent themes in the Bravely Default II demo, so I figured this melody was a good way to measure just how popular Bravely Default II music is. (I've gotten the impression that this game's music isn't anywhere near as famous as Bravely Default's music, maybe because people were let down by the Bravely Second OST.)

...Guess Bravely Default II's music isn't all that popular - only one person got this correct.

'
Youtube Link (https://youtu.be/fz-Sstui9yc?t=4s)

Ok, so... I'll admit, this one was out there. However, if you paid attention to the Discord during the great Rickroll debate from what is now a couple weeks ago, this song was posted during and after it all. Thought someone might recognize it. Unfortunately not. This was the only unguessed melody on my quiz.

Update: Yo it's 10:30pm and I have to sleep, but like, Levi got this one so that's neat.
(This also means LeviR.star got the highest score on my quiz, with a score of 3/5.)

Kricketune54's Quiz

I spent a decent amount of time looking at the previous potlock to kinda figure out what this should be like. 
My goal with this quiz for the most part was to do series that are popular, but maybe not always my first reach for arranging.

I was aiming for that 2 point minimum average, but I didn't exactly achieve that lol.  I think one more well known song instead of #4 would've done the trick

#1
"World Map 2" - Super Mario Bros 3

I figured either a lot of people would get this or no one was.  Big Mario 3 fan, heard this one many times.

#2
"Far Horizons" - The Elder Scrolls V: Skryim

Timestamp: 0:00
Youtube Link (https://youtu.be/pPWVfCtnGyg)

I picked this because I really like the melody, and I figured as it is one of the more known songs from Skryim, it would be a good pick.
Understandably though, this is not Bethesheetmusic, and only Atcero got this.

#3
"Boss B" – Star Fox 64

Timestamp: 0:15
Youtube Link (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZLdeWCLb2i4&t=15s)

This was the most challenging for me to write out for some reason at first.
Funnily enough I originally put this in 10/8 before realizing where the beat was (and that the drum pattern was not the tempo). 
Anyway, I like Star Fox and its music, and this is one of the more memorable from 64.

QuoteMSF: #3 on your quiz is Kirby

I don't know what it is but if BlueKirby, Dekka, and Radiak got it then it's definitely Kirby
...wait, Levi didn't get it?

#4
"Relic Forest" - Pokémon Colosseum

Timestamp: 0:10
Youtube Link (https://youtu.be/I9v1DcE7a1E?t=10)

I saw in retrospect Cash had done this before, but had done a different section of the song.  Also, no one got it last time. 
I had recently posted a version of this to discord as well, so I figured maybe someone would recognize this time.

Well, that was not the case this time either lol.  I probably shouldn't have put this on for the potluck because it's fairly obscure

#5
"Casino Night Zone" - Sonic the Hedgehog 2

Timestamp: 0:07
Youtube Link (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0gw7A3Ao7Y8&t=6s)

Originally I was going to do Chemical Zone but I saw that it had been done before and the exact same part.
I really like this one from Sonic 2 though I most know this song from an orchestra medley. 
I actually had to bail myself out with a sheet E Gadd had done of it as I didn't know how to get the same swing lol, and additionally I wanted this as the middle song, but the fact is, I didn't know how to make the swing stop that E Gadd had

Quote from: Latios21214 looks like that thing from mother/earthbound that's a ripoff of that real song

Quote from: Radiak488417literally the most generic 12 bar blues bassline
i bet that exact bassline is in another vgm song

Quote[3:44 PM] Atcero: also i know 14 is from some surfing game or something
[3:44 PM] mastersuperfan: perhaps
[3:44 PM] Atcero: oh i know it is, that or a summer themed game
[3:44 PM] Atcero: it has it all written over that progression

I need to make a quiz soon
Title: Re: The NSM Guess-That-Melody Quiz!
Post by: mastersuperfan on July 19, 2021, 02:45:11 PM
Since nobody else was posting quizzes, it falls on me to continue providing a regular dose of melodies.

Guess-That-Melody Quiz - MSF Round 37 (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/esv2ii2rkhkb444/AAC9ru2HtsS6ydJ0WcuVImNCa?dl=0)

I hope (hope!) that this one is pretty accessible compared to my past quizzes. Although I didn't delineate sections within the quiz itself, I (very roughly) ordered the melodies by difficulty, with the first half being easier and the second half being more obscure. EDIT: It has since become clear that this statement was a lie.

As always, there are 4 Mario melodies and 2 each of Pokémon/Kirby/Zelda, and no other series is used more than once.

Have at thee!

It's that time again. This quiz is a little more difficult (I think) so I'll try to help you get the answer if you guess close. Rules are the same as before (https://www.ninsheetmusic.org/forum/index.php?topic=9281.msg423398#msg423398), with the letters hint system.

Oh my god a new melody quiz??? And it's one of mine??? Insane.

Atcero's Melody Quiz II  (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/sxepb3xmy4tq649/AAAmAX-V2NbisxsIv-C6WMaDa?dl=0)

I don't remember how I did hints before and I'm too lazy to look so here's the hint system:
You get 3 hints. You can ask for a piece of info and I'll tell ya if its too precise and to pick another. I might straight up tell you if I know you well enough that you might not find a melody if it's one of the songs from games no one else but me plays songs that are much more difficult.

Otherwise, good luck and have fun! I'll post results on the 17th or so of September.
Title: Re: The NSM Guess-That-Melody Quiz!
Post by: Atcero on September 10, 2021, 09:11:24 PM
For the non-discord users, here's an update to my quiz:

Heres some series. If you figure out the song if you got a hint for one of these, I'll refund it

Castlevania: 2
Kirby: 1
Mario (Non main series): 1
Mega Man: 2
Metroid: 1
Sonic: 1
Zelda: 1

And a riddle to guide you on your quest:

Come listen to my tale of a once given test
One that one may consider a little more bullshit than the rest
In each line there may be a hint to a song on the list
And you might find one you might have missed
Hidden among a forest, in a land sky high
Deep within a fiery dance, a king and a man stood nigh
And within a castle lair so deserted stood a shrine
Yet behind the walls it had tested time
And an angel weeps in its heavenly abode
by the act of God was it sowed
And while it turned day across the land and plain
Lay the devil's spies, slashed and slain
The watchmen take their breaths of relief
Against the end of the evil twin of God's grief
And though the wheel of life will continue to turn
Each will find there is still much to learn

      Cashwarrior1's Melody Quiz 7 (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/ko0n0mjkyj6ii4l/AAD_sb-ecc9RaWXrt7GzfxLLa?dl=0)

      This one might be hard, I dunno what y'all know. Rules are the same as before (https://www.ninsheetmusic.org/forum/index.php?topic=9281.msg423398#msg423398), with the letters hint system.

      Also, for questions 16-20, if you answer with the name of the track, you'll get a half point (usually the title of the track gives no points unless with the game)

      The quiz will probably end on Tuesday the 23rd, so you have about 2 weeks-ish

      "Snowpeak Ruins" – The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess

      Timestamp: 0:03
      YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/qKotEx8TWZc?t=3)

      The most guessed melody on my quiz. The theme of this quiz was pretty straightforward: Winter or Snow themed levels from games, which I hinted at in the Discord as well as hinted how you could get a lotta points if you looked at my last quiz. Sadly, I think only MSF did.

      Timestamp: 0:00

      I honestly thought this song was more popular on NSM. I did Angel Island Zone Act 1 last time and it got a lotta votes so I thought the bassline of this one would be memorable enough. Also shout-out to Michael Jackson for doing this bass.

      Timestamp: 0:07
      YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/jL0nUKgL4yQ?t=7)

      Mentioning that this is the stage theme for the Eastern Wall or Longview Corridor in Kirby Star Allies also counts.

      Don't you hate it when the only official name for a theme is in Japanese? Hey, at least we can trust the fan translation this time.

      I've noticed you generally can't seem to recognize boss themes from Kirby Star Allies (at least in Guess-That-Song Quizzes), so I hoped you all would recognize a stage theme from that game more easily. Guess my hunch was correct: 5 people got this right.

      I disregarded the vibrato/going out of tune of the last melody note in the excerpt I used.

      Seeing how popular music from Pokemon Sword and Pokemon Shield is (at least online in general), I thought this would be one of the melodies with the most correct guesses in my quiz. Turns out I was wrong: nobody got this correct.

      How has this theme never been used before in a Guess-That-Song Quiz? Your guess is as good as mine.

      Usage of rests in my excerpt may not be completely accurate and try to reflect what the singer actually sings.
      ...OK, I may have messed up notating the rhythm of some of those syllables on repeated notes.

      On another note, it's amazing how many of you thought this was from Civilization V - 2 and counting. (I still marked you as correct anyway since the title is that distinctive and the series is correct.)

      I'm actually thinking of transcribing this theme in full, or at least its melody, but I didn't realize how much it messes with mixed meter until I tried transcribing this excerpt.
      And yes, this theme similarly trips over itself mixed meter-wise later.

      I'm surprised this got as many correct guesses as the "Hunter's Chance" excerpt (#3) did: both of them got 2 correct guesses. I suspected this would be the hardest melody in this quiz.

      Deltarune.  Might as well strike while the iron's hot.  I think in future I will not pick a melody part that is used in other themes in a game, but I was pleased with the response.

      I was at least glad Cashwarrior got this, because I overestimated how many who were even Pokemon music savants would know this banger from Gen 8.  Maybe people know the first part better.  It is a DLC tune after all though, and I can understand there's a lot of Poke fans who probably don't know it.  I'm going to continue to try to avoid having melodies that skew this hard in future potlucks.

      I'll remind you all that not only was this song brought into Super Smash Bros. Ultimate with Hero, it also played during the fighter's reveal trailer. By the way, if you Google "best selling rpgs in japan of all time", it'll show this game at the top of the list, ahead of both Pokémon Red/Blue and Final Fantasy VII.

      I have a hunch more of you would've guessed this fourth melody if it were "Guile's Theme" instead, or if I at least picked an earlier section of this song. Either way, if I was gonna pick a melody from any fighting game, it had to be this one. Oh and this one's in Smash as well

      Quote from: MaelstromI can only think of the galaxy intro for 1

      I intentionally picked this one to try to fool people into thinking it was from Galaxy, which didn't work on too many people. I'm actually surprised at how many people got this one; I didn't think it would be that well known to those who aren't big Mario Kart fans, at least compared to other Rainbow Roads like N64 and 3DS. But, to be fair, this track has also appeared in four different Mario Kart games at this point...

      As you know by now, I (almost) always end off my quizzes with a meme... and here I thought, how come nobody's used Five Nights at Freddy's on a quiz before? This track is an arrangement of the song "Los Toreadores" from the opera Carmen. I had no idea how many people would get this and was pleasantly surprised by the turnout—even if three people only got it from the original composition without knowing it was used in FNaF.

      There are many people familiar with Donkey Kong Country. Most have heard this song several times over the years (since it's the world map theme). It's also had several repeats in later games, iirc.

      I was watching a live stream (or was it a TAS? I don't remember) and I heard this song. It was really good, so I figured I'd include it. I'm surprised no one got it since I'm pretty sure there's several Sonic fans who took this quiz.

      Yeah, this one's obscure. I thought I chose one of the more recognizable songs, and one of the more recognizable parts. I hoped at least one would get this. If you haven't played this game, I definitely recommend it.

      Title: The NSM Guess-That-Melody Quiz! - LeviR.star's 5th Quiz (with new hints!)
      Post by: LeviR.star on January 20, 2022, 05:03:57 PM
      It's been too long, friends. To think I've only made four normal quizzes in the past five years... Oh well. At least it's here now.

      Let's get down to business! Round 5 of...

      The NSM Occasional Guess-That-Melody Quiz!

      There's no special theme this time around, I'm afraid. However, for consistency's sake, I have set in place a brand new hint system! For this round and onward, I will be offering three hints for each melody quizzer, each with their own category:


      Hint #1       - I'll tell you the console it's on. This isn't a very useful hint unless you're sure you know the franchise.

      Hint #2 - I'll tell you the franchise it's from (but not the specific series). My recommendation would be to use this one last.

      Hint #3 - This one's a wild card! I'll tell you something about the melody that may or may not be helpful.

      Note: The first two hints may not be used to seek out a melody from a specific console/franchise.


      So if you think my quizzes are always too hard, this oughta shake things up. Without further ado...

      Here's Quiz #5!

      1.20.22 Melody Quiz.zip (https://www.dropbox.com/s/4h4cbdokqcj1f02/%235%20-%201.20.22%20Melody%20Quiz.zip?dl=1)

      As always, answers will come whenever I feel like it. My classes just started, so I've got a busy few months ahead of me.

      Have fun, quizzers, and good luck!

      legoenthusiast, can you please use Google Drive or Dropbox to host files next time instead of Mediafire? I don't want to hit pop-up ads with every download, and also risk not downloading the file any time I click on the download link, unlike the experience I just got with Mediafire.

      Hey nice to see you joining in! Besides using Google Drive or Dropbox as mentioned above, I'd highly suggest putting a spoiler warning or something to the MuseScore link - since comments are enabled and publicly visible. Not that anyone around here could cheat of course, but it's easy to get spoiled by accident.

      edit: you also have two #21s

      Post by: legoenthusiast on January 25, 2022, 09:14:12 AM
      I checked Google Drive and Dropbox. One requires a Gmail and the other money, neither of which I have unfortunately.
      As far as I know, Mediafire is the safest alternative, though I didn't realize it had ads.

      At first I intended it to be more casual, but then I added a scoring system later and comepletely forgot about the comment bit, but I've fixed that now!

      Unless I already uploaded the change, then the two 21's should be fixed when I update it with hints later today! :)

      Alright, it's tiiiime for Quiz Answers! There were 15 takers for this quiz. Unintentionally, every question was from a different series. Maybe that makes a quiz easier or harder in some people's eyes, but I always like to have a lot of diversity.

      Maybe not the most known part of the song, albeit still a highly recognizable tune that has gotten a lot of attention over the years.

      This was definitely a bit fewer numbers than what I was expecting, but goes to show that the main melody is definitely what people will recognize more than other parts.

      "UN Owen Was Her" – Touhou 6: The Embodiment of Scarlet Devil

      Timestamp: 4:34
      YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/8jJZA-O_B78?t=2740)

      So I don't know Touhou at all- probably sheer song popularity and recognizability is why this is #1 as far as right answers.  Apparently this is from a remix though?

      This is a pretty faithful remix from Brawl of this Metal Gear theme.  As a kid, getting to play Snake to this after breaching the Halberd and hearing this was such a cool thing.

      Originally, this was going to include the beginning, as well as the bass section (which is 3 bars) as rests.  I decided on this section.  It would've been really something if I had picked those first four bars alone though XD

      With my last melody quiz question, I like to guage and find a song or game I feel like is very well known or relatively popular, but that I haven't really seen discussed on NSM.  This time's choice was the theme that plays during a raid in Clash of Clans... kudos to the two of you who got this.  I understand this was a bit of a deep call back from a game that was really popular on mobile from the early half of the previous decade.

      This is the only song from Hamilton that I know, but I knew a ton of people who were obsessed with the soundtrack in high school, so I figured it would be decently popular... maybe not on NSM, though.

      Post by: LeviR.star on February 06, 2022, 01:04:48 PM
      Welcome back, everyone, to...

      The NSM Occasional Guess-That-Melody Quiz!

      I didn't get the turnout that I was hoping for on this quiz, but I'd like to thank everyone who participated! This quiz wasn't easy, but you took it and submitted answers anyway. Now, without further ado, let's get on with the results:

      The Answers

      Melody #1
      1. [PC] Deltarune - "Cyber Battle (Solo)"



      Timestamp: 0:15


      At first, my intent was to transcribe the melody from the beginning.

      But that would've been too easy, right?

      Melody #2
      2. [SNES] The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past - "Ganon Battle"



      Timestamp: 0:01


      Not a melody, but a recognizable enough bass line that several people got it; I'd call that a win.

      Melody #3
      3. [MUL] Cuphead - "Botanic Panic"



      Timestamp: 0:18


      Mistakenly thinking the NSM community had a decent amount of Cuphead fans, I picked this one. What'd I do wrong? Was this first boss theme too obscure for you quizzers?

      Melody #4
      4. [Wii] Kirby's Return to Dream Land - "Bring on the Super Ability"



      Timestamp: 0:30


      Yeah, I used the title from the Kirby's Dream Collection soundtrack compilation CD. Would you have preferred I use "TRACK #10 - SUPER ABILITY BGM"? After all, we gotta stick to the source material and all...

      Melody #5
      5. [3DS] Pokémon Sun & Pokémon Moon - "Battle! Wild Pokémon"



      Timestamp: 0:34


      I don't play Pokémon games, but I remember my best friend being absolutely obsessed with this one when it came out during high school, so I chose its Wild Battle theme. Sure enough, it got plenty of guesses, so I must've done something right.

      Melody #6
      6. [SNES] Star Fox - "Andross"



      Timestamp: 0:10


      Yuck, I overestimated the original Star Fox's legacy by a long shot; no one guessed this melody without using hints first. Oh well, that's what I get for not using "Corneria".

      Melody #7
      7. [N64] F-Zero X - "Dream Chaser"



      Timestamp: 0:02


      The amount of guesses on this one surprised me, until I realized it was brought back in Super Smash Bros. Ultimate. In hindsight, it probably wouldn't have performed well otherwise!

      Melody #8
      8. [SNES] Final Fantasy VI - "Kefka"



      Timestamp: 0:19


      I didn't notice this melody was notated an octave too low until I started preparing these quiz results, but that shouldn't have been that big of an issue. What a great little piece!

      Melody #9
      9. [GB] Tetris (Game Boy) - "Title Screen"



      Timestamp: 0:06


      Guys, this game sold 35 million copies on the Game Boy alone! How'd you not recognize the title theme? Ah, but VGM fans only know Theme A and B, so it was a lost cause anyway.

      I don't know a lot about Rhythm Heaven, but I figured this was a safe enough bet.

      Damn you, YouTube, now I have to link the extended version.

      Look, it's time for my regular Castlevania melody to keep Atcero and Jake happy. Don't worry, this is the only TurboGrafx-16 melody you'll ever see me use.

      Holy shit. Hoooolllly shit.

      The fact that Kricketune used this song on his most recent quiz is shocking enough,

      but on the EXACT SAME NUMBER?!?

      This is the mother of all coincidences. I don't care if it wasn't the same melody snippet, nobody can ever possibly top this.

      picked 20 melodies that hopefully aren't as niche, think that most people will recognize at least a couple even if the title doesn't come to mind
      and to make things even easier, I added a left hand part for all of them... i just want people to get these right

      It's time for the 30th Anniversary Kirby Quiz!

      As most are probably aware, Forgotten Land comes out in a week, so I wanted to kind of kick off its release with another Kirby only quiz.  Good luck on 20 melodies of Kirby!  Results will be posted sometime 3/25/2022 in the afternoon EST timeframe (idk like 3-5 pm)

      Now that you've all had a chance to enjoy Forgotten Land for a bit, let's check on how the quiz went!  No real structure was planned for this quiz, other than keeping one melody per game for the most part.  There are some notable exclusions on this quiz (Super Star, Epic Yarn, Triple Deluxe) as well as a much greater spinoff representation from last time.  I felt like embracing some more diversity, and I hope everyone that took the quiz enjoyed it!

      Big Forest is my favorite level theme from Dream Land 2, it fits in well with the animal buddies themes!  However, this B section might not come to mind, as it is similar sounding to a lot of other Kirby melody B sections.

      One thing you must know is my appreciation for Kirby is heavily tied to Crystal Shards.  Growing up I really only played Air Ride, RtDL and this from the series, but it wasn't until I listened to Shards' OST through GilvaSunner when studying in college that I really embraced the series' music.  Anyway, this is a cool section of a cool boss theme.

      I just realized I missed the first two eighth notes in the pickup measure, I hope that didn't affect anyone oops. I put this one in to see if people would recognize it and then confuse it with Despacito, which sorta worked on one person, but actually nobody even recognized this at all.

      also kinda put this in because my 8th grade spanish teacher was obsessed with enrique iglesias so a bunch of us listened to him too

      Here's an April Fool's Kirby Guess-The-Song Quiz!
      [PDF] (https://drive.google.com/file/d/1PH-3KMGFYbhVc5r1F36zKPQIRcr9UgOc/view?usp=sharing) | [MP3] (https://drive.google.com/file/d/1xmUwuFBA8BWE-bcFnxyh7ZRAcsSGgEWD/view?usp=sharing) | [MUS] (https://drive.google.com/file/d/1TZ5ncl30h4l2Ig9ZUyTUCZ-MGtFRFBdL/view?usp=sharing) | [MSCZ] (https://drive.google.com/file/d/1z8tvV1WwRZqApGhrWAvEgWNvU_R6UF75/view?usp=sharing)

      The MUS is readable in Finale, including Finale Notepad. The MSCZ is readable in Musescore. All other files are based on the original MSCZ, not the MUS--this explains why the PDF doesn't look like the MUS.
      The MUS may display and/or play back bugged. The MSCZ, MP3, and PDF shouldn't.

      I'll be accepting answers for this quiz as PMs for at least a week, so expect answers on Friday, April 8, 2022 or later. I don't have any Discord accounts, though, so I can't be reached through Discord. Please PM me answers on the NinSheetMusic forums instead!

      I may as well not be completely mean this April Fool's, so here are some hints:

      Yeah, my April Fool's Kirby Guess-The-Song Quiz was meant to be an unfair April Fool's quiz - all but one of the themes I picked are remixes of other, more well-known Kirby themes, and the only non-remix is the theme from Kirby and the Forgotten Land, a game released a mere week before this quiz was released. Even nastier, I arranged the excerpts in rough order from hardest to easiest, with the excerpts that don't sound like remixes of other Kirby themes being first.

      While I accepted only the themes in this answer set as fully correct (I gave hints if you were in the ballpark, though), after seeing you competitors' performance, I decided to give you half points if you got at least one other theme of what each theme remixed correct. I couldn't give you half points for the Kirby and the Forgotten Land theme because it has no remixes...yet.

      With that out of the way, let's get to the answers!

      The King D-Mind Fight 1 theme from Super Kirby Clash
      Timestamp: 0:00

      Yeah, it's annoying how entire Kirby games get no official song names nowadays.

      This theme actually uses and modifies the audio of the Giant Masked Dedede final boss theme of Kirby Blowout Blast for nearly all of it. ...All except these 4 opening measures (and possibly other electric guitar-heavy measures), that is.

      If you think the soundtrack of Super Kirby Clash got pretty metal at times, including for this theme, it's for good reason.

      "異空をかけた戦い"/"'Battle in Another World'"/"'Battle Under Another Sky'"/"'Another World to Win'", from Kirby Star Allies, used as the regular Parallel Boss theme
      Timestamp: 1:23

      The Parallel Dedede/Parallel Meta Knight shared boss theme also counted as a correct answer.

      I purposefully picked the last 2 measures of the loop because only the Parallel Boss versions of Kirby Star Allies's regular boss theme has them.

      Turns out that Yuuta Ogasawara seems fond of loop-ending passages like this one...

      "VS. Dangerous Beast", from Kirby and the Forgotten Land, used as the regular boss theme
      Timestamp: 0:10

      Picking a theme from the newest game in the Kirby series, released a mere week before April Fool's and before this quiz was released, seemed like a fairly good April Fool's joke.

      I decided to give you a sporting chance and pick a theme you could actually hear in the game's demo. ...And some of the game's trailers. Oh, and I did confess that there is exactly one theme from Kirby and the Forgotten Land in this quiz.

      Funnily enough, the official (Japanese) Kirby Twitter channel already revealed the name of this theme...its Japanese name, at the very least...before the game was released.

      "マックスハッピータウン!!"/"'Max Happy Town!!'", from Team Kirby Clash Deluxe, used as a town theme
      Timestamp: 0:39

      I picked this exact version of the Team Kirby Clash Deluxe town theme because it also appears in Kirby Star Allies and it's in a different key from the others.

      I initially wanted to pick an excerpt much closer to the beginning of the theme, but then Kricketune54 picked the beginning of one of the other town themes from this game for his latest Kirby quiz, so I had to pick a later excerpt. I'm personally surprised that Kricketune54 didn't recognize this melody.

      Note the town themes' great similarity to the Ordeal Boss themes of this game.

      The Aeon Hero (Light/Dark) final boss theme from Super Kirby Clash
      Timestamp: 0:22

      The grace note areas were probably not transcribed completely accurately.

      I purposefully picked an excerpt that straddles the inner repeat that no other in-game remix of Galacta Knight's theme has. ...Turns out that it's not quite an inner repeat after all, with the instrumentation and maybe some of the shorter notes and accompaniment changed the second time around.

      Ah, listening to this theme for the first time, labelled "Galactic B", and correctly guessing with one guess which boss's theme it would be a remix of purely from the title and the game it was from...what the heck did they call Galacta Knight all game, though?!? That and the "Galactic B" (and "Galactic A") labels promptly disappeared without a trace from YouTube and search engines the moment the final boss name was put on the videos...at least the boss theme label "Hakua" from the same game didn't disappear so thoroughly. I am stuck assuming all 3 labels are derived from ripped file names because they sure aren't treated as official...

      "Drawcia Demo", from Kirby and the Canvas Curse, used as an introductory theme for the final boss
      Timestamp: 0:00

      I opted to not put in any of those additional synth notes the last measure of my excerpt actually had in the original. Also, the ritardando was probably not transcribed completely accurately. Speaking of that, I think this is the first time we've transcribed a ritardando in a Guess-The-Song Quiz! In the meantime, I wish I could use an ornament (probably a mordent) instead of the grace notes I had to use, but none of the ornaments I could find in Musescore matched.

      Turns out that all of Drawcia's themes in Kirby and the Canvas Curse start with similar material. ...But never the same material, even if you transpose them all to the same key!

      "Arm Yourself - You'll Need It!", from Kirby Super Star Ultra, used as the True Arena intro and ability select theme
      Timestamp: 0:27

      The title used in this answer is probably unofficial - shucks!

      This theme uses enough material from both the Arena intro theme and the main battle theme of the Arena (both from Kirby Super Star) that I figured enough of you would recognize this excerpt as a blatant remix of earlier Kirby music.

      "三叉一閃の巫の熱情"/"'Passion of the Tridental-Flashing Priestesses'"/"'Passion of the Tridental Mages'", from Kirby Star Allies, used as the Three Mage-Sisters' collective boss theme
      Timestamp: 1:47

      I purposefully picked an excerpt that straddles both Friend Train/Circle/Star theme material and Song of Supplication material. I'll probably stick an excerpt of the Song of Supplication or a full version thereof in a future Guess-The-Song Quiz because I suspect it's the easiest boss theme to recognize from that game (after you all thoroughly failed to recognize the possibly more popular Hyness Phase 2 boss theme the first time I put it in a quiz).

      1 out of 4 people got this correct, and 3 out of 4 people got this partially correct.

      "Taranza, the Master of Puppetry", from Kirby Triple Deluxe, used as a cutscene theme
      Timestamp: 0:03

      This is one of the only themes in this quiz with in-game remixes in Kirby games published after the game this theme is from. In that case, the in-game remix is the Dark Taranza boss theme from Team Kirby Clash Deluxe. Pretty ironic, considering that this theme is already a remix (of King Dedede's theme). Yeah, Taranza got the King good that time.

      "VS. Star Dream", from Kirby: Planet Robobot, used as a final boss theme
      Timestamp: 2:37

      Yeah, we've used this theme before in an April Fool's Guess-The-Song Quiz (https://www.ninsheetmusic.org/forum/index.php?topic=9281.msg423492#msg423492), and I think even this excerpt overlaps that previous excerpt. Bah - this was meant to be one of the most obvious tells in the entire quiz that I'm looking for exact remixes this round. ...And, as a prank, I put it dead last.

      I purposefully picked an excerpt that straddles both Kirby's Triumphant Return material and Green Greens material.

      I'm surprised the creator of that older April Fool's Guess-The-Song Quiz didn't get this correct.

      Timestamp: 00:49

      Originally known as Divine Bloodlines, this song first appeared in Castlevania: Rondo of Blood. It was then arranged for CV64 as the intro song and is easily one of the best versions of it. Also the OG was featured in smash, so it isn't that obscure anymore.

      I'm surprised we've never used this theme in a Guess-That-Song Quiz before. ...Or transcribed it for solo piano. Guess I better get going on that. Time to tank lyrics.

      There are actually slight melody note differences between the vocal and instrumental ("strings") versions - I decided to base this quiz entry on the notes of the vocal version, with some debts to the instrumental version's note lengths.

      On the other hand, maybe I shouldn't be so surprised that we've never used this theme in a Guess-That-Song Quiz before or transcribed it for solo piano - nobody got this correct. I'm still a bit shocked - I thought Sonic music was more famous than this....

      Timestamp: 0:13
      YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/0STMv94aTKI?t=13)

      Due to nearly every theme in Kirby Star Allies having only a Japanese official name (this is a rare exception), "Prayer Song to God" (the leading English translation of the Japanese name) was also accepted as a correct name.

      One main-series Kirby game later, I'm surprised we never put this in a Guess-That-Song Quiz before. And we should have - it's one of the only recurring themes in Kirby Star Allies!

      I had to mark anyone who guessed any of the final boss themes of Kirby Star Allies (whether by the boss's name(s) or as "Star-Conquering Traveler") as incorrect because none of those themes have this precise melody - not even any version transposed into the final boss themes' home key of C minor. I did give these people hints that they were close, though.

      Timestamp: 0:50
      YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/_umW45EbVJc?t=50)

      FYI, this is the true ending route's final boss theme.

      Shovel Knight music was popular enough back in the day - you guys got music from that series correct often enough for the most part. I guess Shovel Knight Pocket Dungeon music is as cold as ice, though. I hadn't seen it get hyped up right when the game got released - in fact, I only found out the game exists months later when wanting to check out Jake Kaufman's Bandcamp page again. No wonder nobody got this melody correct. ...Even though I picked the phrase from this boss theme that most reminds me of earlier Shovel Knight music.

      "The Azure Arbitrator" – The Legend of Heroes: Trails to Azure

      Timestamp: 1:09
      YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/h8CmfRgxvVQ?t=69)

      The The Legend of Heroes: Trails to Azure - Evolution version also counted as a correct answer.

      This final boss theme is incredibly long - over 7 minutes long before it loops! Luckily for the listener, it's actually quite richly structured, with a substantial portion of the theme returning in an abridged form, key changes and all, partway through the theme.

      ...Yeah, I picked this theme for this quiz because it got (admittedly rigged) voted into first place in GaMetal ballots (and the riggers were right: I found that I actually like this theme), so I figured this had to be one of the more popular Trails battle themes. ...Not popular enough, I guess: nobody got this correct.

      "Daughter of the Dark God" also counted as a correct answer. Somehow, YouTube videos of that song that aren't extended are a lot harder to find right now.

      Both of these are final boss themes, yet again - I swear this is coincidence!

      I'm not sure whether "The One They Call The Witch" or "Daughter of the Dark God" is the more famous boss theme (maybe "Daughter of the Dark God" has a slight edge?), and I didn't feel like nailing guessers on technicalities this time, so I picked a melody that both themes share in the same key.

      This was definitely the hardest one on this quiz; I included because I had just finished my playthrough of Arceus.  Again, I think people will know this one more in the future (and probably would've known the intro phraes more), but this flute melody might still be a bit obscure

      Aptly named for the final melody, this rounded out a fairly RPG heavy melody quiz with a modern lean.  I chose this part initially trying to make it a challenge rather than the "You'll never see it comin", but was pleased by the ratio of people who took the quiz to people who got this right.

      Here it is, the song that can't be "ruined". Rearrange the beats, pitch it higher or lower, doesn't matter, it will remain perfect. Truly Toby Fox is the greatest composer of the century, outshining Shostakovich, Gershwin, even Schoenberg; nothing will ever rival his genius.

      I wasn't sure about this one, it's sort of a countermelody but it's also the most prominent line at this point in the song. Looks like it ended up being pretty difficult to guess.

      Timestamp: 0:02 - 0:12

      The famous motif of Wii Sports; tantalizingly easy, yet requiring too much effort for most to consider it worth it.

      Funny story: Originally I was going to do Electroman Adventures, but I saw that Dekka had used it on a previous quiz and no one got it. However, I wanted to include Geometry Dash since it has some bops and I figured "Well, level 2 shouldn't be TOO obscure..." I was right.

      This was basically my easy one since I knew the other ones would be semi-obscure. Figured it wouldn't hurt to give out a famous song that required no searching by most.

      someone on discord insistently bought me both portal games and library of ruina for my birthday. so i played through portal 1 for the first time. and of course with the recent "uncompressed" version of this song being discovered, and my general "panic" and brain death setting in, of couse i chose the song that is the funnie meme.

      as i was stumped for more melodies, and also the fact that i had recently had multiple nights where i just listened to this on loop for like an hour, an extended version of this kept popping up in my recommended youtube videos, so i decided "ok fine ill use this song" since its a huge banger. this is my favorite song in celeste tbh.

      for the final one, i decided for a bit of a "freebie" type one, and one song i really do enjoy. i once saw a yt comment under an upload of this song that talked about how healing can and will be painful and it takes time, and it has really stuck with me.

      Timestamp: 0:18
      YouTube Link (https://youtu.be/zD6heyiE-0s?t=18)

      This is quoted by enough Kirby and the Forgotten Land themes that this is one of those KatFL themes you must memorize.
      ...Dunno whether most people just memorized this tune's other appearances (e.g. "The Ultimate Fight", "VS. Psychic Power Given Form"), but only one person got this correct. Shucks.

      My sister left her Nintendo Switch in my place, and my nephew is playing Pokemon Sword on it right now. This gym leader theme actually pumps up the hype pretty well. And it does so starting right at the start.
      ...OK, it later drops off around when the Gym Leader Dynamaxes their Pokemon and the bassline remains in G minor while the audience's chanting is in F sharp major, but eh, you can't actually hear the bassline in-game at that point.

      I'm a bit surprised that this had the most correct guesses, but then again, Gen 8 isn't the newest Pokemon generation anymore...

      There's no denying one of the best musical themes in Paper Mario: The Origami King (at least IMO)!
      ...So only 2 people got this correct. Somehow, its transcriber isn't one of them. I guess this theme really is that hard to hear in-game after all.

      I'm a bit surprised that Bug Fables themes have never been used in any Guess-The-Song quizzes before, so I figured I better change that now.

      ...Maybe I should have picked a Bug Fables theme that someone else here in NinSheetMusic has transcribed. I've heard the game's last final boss theme is popular, so I picked it. It must not be that popular, though: only one person got this correct.

      Next potluck quiz, I'm transcribing music from a different bug-crammed game with highly praised music that we haven't really touched in Guess-The-Song quizzes: Hollow Knight!

      I didn't expect Morpho Knight to get fought in a second Kirby game so soon, so I figured I better put this boss's first boss theme in a Guess-The-Song quiz.
      I initially wanted to transcribe only the first 4 measures, but the Kirby and the Forgotten Land version heavily uses a motif in the original's Bars 5-12, so I had to transcribe 2 more measures so people could (at least start to) pick up on that motif.

      Wasn't sure how well guessed this one would be, figured it would either be somewhat guessed or not much at all. Safe to say it was the latter. Seemed like Xenoblade 3 got a lot of attention for its soundtrack, but it's completely understandable that a melody like this doesn't really standout super well for people in retrospect. It was in fact not Morbin Time on this melody quiz.

      Brand new melody quiz just dropped

      Cash melody Quiz number 8 (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/tbe9i0dmcwtd8g2/AAClUOL5gNewMWjvvBzm_dapa?dl=0)

      All rules from my previous quizzes are NULL! I used whatever melody I felt like so HAH.

      You can ask for one hint for each track, hints will be a screenshot of the top comment on the youtube vid (unless it has the name of the track). I'll keep track of hints used in case of a tie breaker.

      Quiz will end in like a week or something i dunno

      Guess who's back.

      It's ThatHiddenCharacter!

      And guess what he brought.

      The Comeback Quiz!!! (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/z2rz6elc83zhhqf/AAALooUIhs32Qx6sQxJZY7Wra?dl=0)


      It's definitely a shorter one, but it's what I already had on hand. I might make a much larger one in the near future, though. I look forward to running this one, and I'm excited to learn a little more about the new people through this. I will most likely post answers a week from today. Good luck!

      If you need a hint, you can ask for one per song, but you will be publicly shown as having asked for a hint. Gotta give an incentive to avoid hints somehow.

      It's been a while since the last pokemon quiz (there's been like 3 games released since then). So lets do another one!

      The quiz is out of 40 points, you get 1 point for guessing the game and 2 points for the game and title of track. I'm also allowing one hint for each question, I'll tell you the generation and if the game is main series or not. Hints will be kept track of but will only affect tie breakers.

      The quiz will end in a week (August 13th).

      Also here's the player stats (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1pEvH4cZO1Etl1CKxqGYr1KDIsONaekCW5a3MQOsaAPA/edit?usp=sharing) as of last quiz if you're interested.

      legit thought this song was way more popular, i swear ive seen this song be talked about so dang much. i guess maybe i chose a section too far in? but my thought process was the song was very repetitive, so people would recognize a later part of the song.

      I've found this specific section of the song has a real knack for popping up in places completely unrelated to Touhou. I also uh... thought at least one other person (not anyone in specific) might've gotten. Oops.

      realized i should probably have another more recognizable song in here (already had 5 decided but wanted to use it last as a "freebie" type deal), so i was like "uhhhhh what series is well known that has a well known melody uhhh". eventually landed on this and checked in the past quiz and found out the first part was already used. so, i went with the second part because of that, and also because its very pretty :3

      Given that Mario Party 5 is a bit obscure in terms of Mario Party games, I was also willing to accept a minigame name of where it's featured. The most famous of these being "Pushy Penguins", which reappeared in both The Top 100 (if you were one of the 3 people who played that game) and Mario Party Superstars. Other minigames where it appeared in were: "Blown Away", "Twist 'n' Out", "Fish Upon a Star", "Manic Mallets", and, "Hotel Goomba".
      One day, I'll also finish my arrangement of this too... :P

      This game doesn't have an official English title AFAIK, so if you were able to identify "DL-6", you were good. :)
      I wanted to go Ace Attorney, but not too obvious like the "Objection!" or "Pursuit" themes. So, I picked the game's main "haunted past" theme.

      Timestamp: 0:03

      A lot of people refer to this song as "Isabelle's Theme", which is completely fair since she runs the Town Hall, so I was willing to accept that as an answer. In fact, in New Horizons, the Resident Services building theme has a mashup of this song and Tom Nook's Theme (which is the song from the original Animal Crossing's Nook's Cranny building).

      Compared to the Hollow Knight music fandom I've seen, this game's music seems to be criminally underrated here, so I picked one of this game's most famous musical themes for this quiz.

      This has got to be one of the best rearrangements of the Revenge of Meta Knight ending theme I've ever heard in a Kirby game. So I picked one of my favourite excerpts in this theme for this quiz - one that doesn't really rearrange the Revenge of Meta Knight ending theme at all.

      No wonder only one person got this correct.

      Man, it's been so long since I transcribed Tinker Knight's other battle theme for a Guess-The-Song Quiz. I can see why I didn't pick "The Destroyer" before for a Guess-The-Song Quiz - it's definitely the more dissonant and nastier-sounding of the two.

      I decided to do a Super Mario RPG theme since that game's remake is coming up. I only heard too late that this is a rearrangement of "Battle Against An Armed Boss", but luckily, nobody guessed that.
      In the meantime, I got to watch the cutscene for this theme synced to this theme, which makes me think that this theme is Mickey Mousing a little too closely at times...

      I intended for this one to be on the tricker side. Despite being a generally well-known track, the rhythm and contour of most of this excerpt isn't very distinctive, and without anything indicative of Mario Kart speed. The end of this excerpt though is reasonably distinctive.

      If there's one pattern I've noticed about Undertale OST enthusiasts, it's that they know the soundtrack nearly inside-out; it'd be hard to pick out a track they don't recognize.

      "Feena" – Ys 1: Ancient Ys Vanished

      YouTube Link (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RjKpOQOvaPc&t=91s)

      Not the most obscure title, I think, but if you're familiar with Falcom at all they tend to remaster this particular leitmotif a lot in the Ys series, as well as using it for their logo jingle in some games.

      "Battle Frontier" – Pokémon Emerald Version

      Timestamp: 0:28
      YouTube Link (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NiDUh-LHrDU&t=28s)

      People did well enough on this, but this melody is also used in the battle theme as well so that might have been a little confusing at first.

      The easiest one by far (and also because Kricketune already beat me to it by putting it on his quiz), but yet another leitmotif so I gave it to anyone who guessed a track that included the same melody.

      I hinted at it before, but now it's finally time. The sequel we all definitely wanted. It's the:

      Super Duper Mario Bros.' Super Duper Melody Quiz! (https://www.dropbox.com/sh/s4jm4xvdx07ntd0/AABsXCC5X9dF5hDllMyPQaVva?dl=0)

      Yup! 50 melodies (and not-melodies) packed into a single quiz, all taken from the Mario franchise! The quiz is sectioned off into 5 distinct sections, mostly separated by difficulty. One section also contains basslines instead of melodies.

      Due to the larger nature of this quiz, I will be bringing back an old system. The public hint system! Every participant has three hints they can use. You choose a song you would like a hint for, and the hint for that song will be shared publicly for everyone to enjoy! But once you use all three, you can't use any more. So use them sparingly!

      Also! The final section of this quiz is unique. Because of its content, each song in the final section is only allowed to have three guesses before you are no longer allowed to guess it. So think carefully for those! It's also written on the sheet in case you forget.

      This quiz will last two weeks! Good luck, everybody! Someone please ping me on Discord two weeks from today, so I don't forget.

      THC's Unnecessary Statistics of Quizality
      The most guessed song was a tie between Mario Kart Stadium and SMB3 Athletic with 8 guesses each.

      No one even attempted the impossible section. What a shame.

      The song that surprised me the most to be guessed was Delfino Airstrip

      The song that surprised me the most that not everyone got was Gusty Garden Galaxy

      I accidentally reused a song that was in my previous quiz. A different section of it, though.

      5 out of 6 people who attempted the final section got the gimme melody.

      Sorry it's been a minute, but here are hints for every song that has not been guessed yet in my quiz!
      2) This one's relatively obscure; however, this particular bit of the song is an arrangement of an NES song- although the rhythm is changed. The game is part of a subseries as well.
      7) This song is from a niche indie game. However, one of the composers in the game used this as a motif in a music video they composed for later (possibly unintentionally).
      9) Another indie game- the composer said this piece was directly inspired by Link's Awakening. The piece blends live-recorded woodwinds with VST instruments.
      10) This piece has the same composer as #20! Additionally, this soundtrack was remastered for a later release of this game. The original is a PS2 game.
      11) The theme of ending an entire bloodline!!!!!! Oh- and this piece straight up has a zunpet in it.
      12) This piece is from a mobile game and, melody wise, sounds hilariously similar to another piece from the series. It has to be purely coincidental though...
      17) This section is at the end of a loop- if I let it continue playing you'd hear a motif that is in literally every game in this series.
      20) This piece has the same composer as #10! The game was originally only released in Japan but very recently got a worldwide release.
      22) Veggie pizza, anyone? You'll be a superstar!!!
      23) I'm lovin' it- or rather~ er~ weeeee're lovin' it
      25) This is a boss theme in a Gamecube game
      32) This is an orchestral town theme from a long-running JRPG series
      37) See Audio Hint (https://drive.google.com/file/d/11m0hTqNRxPERtlYb9rInv1bVKrJ_SCX-/view?usp=sharing) (note: this piece is not in the game, I made this excerpt audio-wise myself)
      39) This is from a well known 90s RPG.
      41) From a mobile game that has way better music then it should possibly be allowed to have- although the composer has worked across the series, this game was his favorite to compose for.
      45) This game literally came out only a few months ago. This piece plays very early on.

      The Quiz will hopefully close by next Saturday, the 11th

      Mario Vs Xenoblade Quiz (https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fo/r630j3avt1x73q3bw74y0/h?rlkey=pml7yowq6p7r8i0gdmprofle0&dl=0)

      This is meant to be a very fun and quick quiz that anyone can play! All you have to do is guess whether the melody is from Mario or Xenoblade (please read the rules below). The only games used are Xenoblade 1, 2, and 3, and Mario Galaxy 1, 2 and 3D world + Bowser's Fury. Don't try too hard to find the melodies, just have fun!

      *RULES*
      IMPORTANT: The win condition is different from regular quizzes

      Once again, this is meant to be a fun laid back quiz, so don't stress too much about finding the precise melody. Since the focus is on the initial Mario or Xenoblade guesses, there are 60 questions. Have fun!

      On this one I was really hoping that someone would identify the motif as similar to Toby's "The Greatest Living Show" and I could've half led them here but that never happened! Obviously this is a super obscure source but I thought it'd be fun to throw it in.

      QuoteTHC: I'm thinking
      That 26
      Might be a map theme
      It's definitely either a map or something tropical
      I swear it sounds like The Legendary Starfy, but I've listened to every song in that OST multiples time trying to find it already
      I just had the scary notion that it might be from Kirby
      Hhh, but it doesn't sound like Kirby
      I swear it's from the DS
      I also looked through Super Princess Peach and didn't find it
      Ok, not in Scribblenauts or Super Scribblenauts
      I think what makes it hurt more is that it doesn't just sound familiar, I know for a fact that I know this song

      This quiz definitely does not have a theme that nets you three points if you guess it. Also, the last melody is totally not worth two points due to difficulty. I'll leave this one up for a week, unless not enough people guess by then.
