Subject: Music Chart Challenge - COMPLETE
Posted by: kyleisalive
Date: Jul 24 18
Can you hear that? It's the sound of music! NEW music! OLD music! Some sort of music!
We're going to celebrate music with this challenge, and while it may be a bit of a niche challenge, there are opportunities for classic music listeners to get in on the fun. There should be some international appeal despite the region specificity.
Anyways, check the date. Whatever day it is (where you are, not at the time of the challenge posting), look back at that date on the Billboard 200 Chart (here's a link:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Billboard_200_number-one_albums ). Whatever artists had number one albums on that date are eligible as topics for your quiz.
Let's say the date is July 15. That means that you can look back at July 15th on those charts-- any years-- and the artists associated with that day can be topics you use for your quiz. So for July 15, you're already looking at The Beatles, Donna Summer, Janet Jackson, the Spice Girls, Avril Lavigne, The Black Eyed Peas, and more! And it could change every week!
We need ten quizzes to complete the challenge, and they should all be about different bands/artists.

So if I don't have time to do the quiz today, I can't pick today? I have to pick the day I start the quiz? Mind you I have no particular ideas in mind, just saw this one for the first time. Reply #22. Sep 20 18, 11:10 AM |

Make the template, claim the album, and it'll be fine. Reply #23. Sep 20 18, 2:55 PM |

So is the quiz supposed to be about multiple artists or one artist (and album)? I am kind of confused. Reply #27. Oct 01 18, 2:47 AM |

From the instructions in the header, you have to write about a band/soloist who had a number one Billboard hit on the date (in any year) on which you set up your template. Not necessarily about that album, but about that band. Or, if you choose a compilation album, about that album (not just one of the artists on it). No repeating an artist who already has a quiz in the challenge. Reply #28. Oct 01 18, 4:00 AM |

Claudiacat's last quiz seems to lead to a Page Not Valid error, and the quiz is also not in the above list. What happened? Reply #40. Apr 28 19, 4:55 AM |
