I had a hard time with the hints, specially since I'm not an expert on Weird Al. I still don't know how "identical twins" relates to "whatever you like" (iirc) LOL. And "Used to make french fries/crisps" I was thinking more about a tool like a frying pan rather a potato, and it was difficult because there was more than an answer with a potato in it.

The others took me some time to find them, but at least I got 9/10.
Identical twins because the name of the original song and the Al's song are the same (usually he changes them).
As for the rest - wiki's page was a big help (though I interpreted the hint wrong anyway) - there's a list of all his songs.

Oh LOL. No offense meant but that's the worst hint ever, it misleads more than helps!
I agree to a point - but when I saw that none of the answers is the same as my notes - I read the question and it hit me.
Sure you have to be able to read and understand it all just in time - I caught it in the last moment pretty much.

It is supposed to be a hint, not an answer hidden behind a quick round at Google. So really it is a great hint!

But there have been some really bad hints, so be prepared 🎃
Bad hints are pretty subjective, I remember there have been in the six months I've been on IG some hints that PLENTY of people compained about but that I deciphered very easily. And then there are hints that (according to the correct answers count in the quiz) pretty much everyone gets right except for me. So yeah, it all depends on the person and their experience or knowledge or whatever, bad hints to some are really easy to others and vice versa. This one was bad for me, subjectively (and that's on me, not the Quizmaster)

Yeah, while generally I can read the question fast enough to think and find the right answer, if the answer I researched turns out to be wrong I sometimes tend to panic and can't calm down in time to realise that the answer is there in plain sight.
So anyway this particular quiz now has the honour of defeating me twice o_O

Well, just remember you get 10 secs to answer, a few of those just spent on reading the question and the options... and who wants to wait to the last second to answer and risk to miss it. So you really have a couple of seconds to think, if you don't have a good idea of what you are going to choose it really comes down to luck.

Sure, hints shouldn't tell you the correct answer outright, but they should lead you in the right direction so you can be prepared. Besides, theses hints aren't just given to us, we earn them by playing the mini game. In this case "identical" would've been a great hint, "identical twins" no IMO. I was also expecting I Think I'm a Clone Now.

I'm afraid the situation is a bit more complicated...I will return with a public statement soon about why the rewards via support won't quite be a viable option anymore, unfortunately.
I think @cheerie132 found this public statement, so let's link it here as well:
On a related note, there is a new section in the FAQ here About IndieGala Giveaways & Duplicate Steam Keys — IndieGala help & documentation portal 1.0 documentation TL;DR duplicate keys from gameplay giveaway are will no longer be replaced by support.

This particular was a part of 3-quiz deal, and there was 25-50-100 prize pool for it.
At one point there was even a 5-quiz iirc...
And at the very beginning pool was 200, then 100... But it was even more buggy than it is now.

P.S. Schedule wasn't set at the beginning like it is right now - different days, different time... More adrenaline.

I quick-checked on Steam and the prizes were 50-75-100 BUT the time betwee the quizzes was according to that thread around 1 hour? CRAAAZY it's already kind of late here, couldn't handle that :D

anyway thanks for quiz, easy one today, no glitches/bugs/delays
