ProgPower USA Sporcle quiz

[KristoferX]

OK guys, how good are your memories? I'm sure many of you are aware of Sporcle, the website with the quizzes that has taken many an hour of my life when I could have been doing other more productive things. Well, I decided to create a PPUSA quiz. Here's the link:

Can you name the ProgPower USA bands?

I could use some feedback and proofreading. Some things I am looking for:
-Is my information correct? (I was using Wikipedia so who knows what they may have gotten wrong)
-Are all of the bands spelled correctly?
-Are there any alternate spellings I should accept? (I'm a stickler for spelling on message boards but not so much when you're racing against the clock)
-Is the amount of time OK? Should you have more time? Less time? I don't want it to get to the point where you have a ton of time left and you are just pulling bands' names out of nowhere. But then I don't want to cut you short either.


Let me know what you think and have fun! Oh, and if you're into sports give my other quiz a try too.

well I took it and got 107 of 130. I've only been to 7-current.

Savatage is listed as the headliner of PPV. I thought the formal title of the group of musicians playing that night was "weapons of mass destruction".

That is correct, I will change it. (Stupid wiki info)

Virgin Steele is missing its last 'e'. It didn't take it until I deleted the e.

 

[KristoferX]

OK, fixed. Thanks.

I got 111 correct. I kept drawing blanks on I and IX. I also think "All Star Jam" listed is a little, I don't know....I think it would be better if you stuck to the bands. (Sorry to spoil that for those playing). I was able to get all of V, VII, X, XI, and XII. I totally blanked on After Forever headlining in 08. Also, this reminded me that both Destiny's End and Onward played the first one, so hey, let's have Crescent Shield sometime

 

[ConnieOH]

I only got 72. It was fun though, thanks for making the quiz!

I think you're right about the All Star Jam. I think I'll take it out. Was that something that was ever officially listed? I don't recall and that was one of the years I missed.

 

[BlackRoseMetalHeart]

I got 89 out of 129. Given that I'm not a big prog metal fan, most of the bands I missed were either progressive bands or from years when I did not attend. Cool quiz! Thanks for the fun!

 

[booB]

I've been to every one, and I only got 94. Then again, I'm drunk.

 

[J-Man]

I got 99 right, i just ran out of time.

 

[AngraRULES]

113 out of 129. Can't believe I even forgot headliners!

I actually wonder how Glenn would do (no cheating), hahahah.

I was just thinking this.

 

[KristoferX]

Yeah, I was also wondering how Glenn would do. That's an awful lot of bands to remember.

Whatever Kris, you cheated.

-Love, Milton.

 

[sh0kr0k]

106/129 but I missed a few obvious ones due to time running out and figuring out how to put All Star Jam in there. :Spin:

Can't believe how quickly I forgot some of this year's and next year's after trying to think back so far.

 

[sh0kr0k]

113 out of 129. Can't believe I even forgot headliners!

I didn't forget headliners but I forgot some of my favorites!

 

[KristoferX]

Whatever Kris, you cheated.

Hey, I didn't get a perfect score and I made the quiz.

 

[mandaX]

Hey, I didn't get a perfect score and I made the quiz.

That's because you're too busy figuring out ways to mack it to Charlotte from Delain.
