      @tennesseejac said in Drive-In Tour Games:

      And, does each correct song picked get a point no matter which slot? Like if I choose America for 1st set opener but they play it the 3rd song, does it still count as one point?

      You must pick openers and closers in the correct position – that's why they're worth more points. But it does work the other way – if you pick America as a wildcard and it opens the first set, you'd get 1 point.

            Hi everybody, just a reminder that I will turn the form off one hour before the show. That means your entry MUST be in by 6 PST / 7 MST / 8 CST / 9 EST!

            There are a few stragglers so hopefully they remember to play before its too late.

            Hope everyone has a blast tonight!

              Hi everybody!

              Whew, what a show. Almost had a festival vibe. It seemed like a bit of a greatest hits show to me, with excellent versions of some of the band's biggest mainstays. As for the game, obscure calls and covers were not favored here and I think a statistical approach of "what's been played the most" would have gotten a lot of points (looking at you, Beautiful Day encore.) However it turns out the essential call was The Remedy, because, well, duh. Nice going, folks who picked that.

              We had a bunch of ties as you'd expect with a one-show game. The official nugs recording isn't out yet, so the longest jam is still TBD. But here are our contenders: last names redacted for the internet, but you know who you are.

              With 6 points we had a tie for first. Their tiebreaker times:

              Jerry - 23:28
              Ethan - 24:33

              After that we have a 4-way tie for 3rd place, with their tiebreaker times:

              Lance - 22:12
              Jeff - 14:45
              Brandon - 23:10
              Marc - 28:23

              As soon as the official recording is out I'll make an update with the winners! Hope you all had a great show. I know I needed some live tunes in my life.

                  14:45 Jeff? When is the last show they didn’t play a song over 15 minutes long?

                    @tennesseejac we had about 42 players I think and raised $350 for the band. Thanks again for participating.

                      Looks like the longest jam of the night was Postman. It's around 20:54-21:50 depending on whose recording you use, but that doesn't actually affect the winner.

                      The winners of the drive-in game:

                      1st - Jerry (6 points, 23:28)
                      2nd - Ethan (6 points, 24:33)
                      3rd - Lance (4 points, 22:12)

                      Honorable mention to Jeff, Brandon and Marc also with 4 points each but having whiffed the jam time 🙂

                      We plan on refining this system and having something fun for everyone when the next tour rolls around!

                      Thanks for playing everyone, hope you're all safe and happy out there.
