Did you participate in the
Snippet Contest (2017)?
You had to identify 30 snippets in one 3min45sec mp3. The
mp3 file and
solution are still available.
Gave this a shot and got 29/30 for releases, 13/30 for tracks. I tend to listen to the full releases and don't pay as attention to which title goes with which track, so it makes sense. I do think BoC have great track titles though and maybe it's a bad sign that I haven't been able to get the hang of them over years of repeat listening..

Without confirmation, I'm sure I got 100% on this, unless the 2 tracks that appeared on more than one release were trick questions. I wasn't voted "World's Smartest Millionaire" back in 2015 for nothing.
Side Note: this reminds me of a (pre Tomorrow's Harvest) time where I took a "Name All BoC Tracks" quiz and only got one wrong, and that was how I learned that sherbet only had one R in it.

26 out of 30 and without confirmation for me. 86%
(if cupz coulda given me an extra second I'm positive I would've had zoetrope in the bag.

The problem with saying that I got 100% across the board is that it sounds like I'm just talking shit but I swear it's true lmao. Pretty sure I took the original quiz back in the day too but forgot my results. Yo Fredd! Mind helping me out by retrieving those here if you're reading this thread?

No actually, I'll remember the tune and the album all day long but half of the time I'll recall the experience vs the name
