No, if you asked for a hint but then gave the wrong answer, you score 0 for that hook.
Also, the rule about accepting your first answer is for my own sanity more than anything. I do keep a running tally of scores as the guesses come in so its easier if I don't have 4 or 5 PMs with changes to answers - that's a surefire way for the results to go wrong...
You can submit answers in sections if you are unsure of certain hooks, but your first answer will be one I take. You wouldn't get a second chance on a game show, right?
Anyway, I hope you all enjoy Round 2 and don't hate me too much for it!

Whew, that was definitely a lot harder than Round 1. The songs used may as well be anything.

I'm going extend the deadline for this round until Thursday since I'll be busy with other stuff tomorrow night.
Should give you all a bit more time to trawl through your music collections for those tricky ones!

ROUND 3 is a SUPER-SPEEDSHIFTER BONUS ROUND, and the final round in this game.
This time, you have one big long string of 16 hooks (8 regular and 8 backwards) but the BPMs have been shifted at random points. They may speed up - they may slow down - or they may stay at the regular speed. Again, your job is to identify the artist and song title of each hook.
Hints available:
- label name (minus 2 points)
- album name (minus 3 points)
Maximum score for each hook is once again 5 points, so with a possible total of 80 points on offer, it really is all down to the wire.
ROUND 3 IS OPEN UNTIL SUNDAY 21st JUNE 19:30 BST (UK), 14:30 EDT (NYC), 11:30 PCT (Los Angeles)

INJUSTICE!!
I wrote my answers in an e-mail and you haven't added my points! I guess you haven't added because I only said.
"09 MANUEL / SUN IN THE RAIN (SEB 167) (A-Beat C)
10 MARK FOSTER / QUEEN (SEB 164) (Asia)"
But without the
1.
2.
etc
before! That's really low!
I do still have the sent mail in my PM box...
Anyway, Round 3 is fail for me (only know one, won't make a difference anyway)

I can ensure you that no injustice has been served here - your points from Round 1 totalled 13. The two answers you gave above awarded you another 10 points in total. Therefore, you now have 23 points.

Sombody call a doctor, cuz I think I'm stumped. Therer are only a handful I regularly listen to and jumped at me at once. The fact that there is no pauses inbetween riffs makes it an ear shattering experience. I think I'm screwed this TIME
