Poptimist Music TasteXoR Throwdown Quiz

[freakytigger.livejournal.com]

The idea of this insular and self-congratulatory event is to MATCH the members of poptimists with the 'favourite act' they picked. Answers by end of the day, comments screened (will unscreen any that aren't entries), watch THIS SPACE for yr scores, if you don't know who any of these people are then use your psychic abilities to pick (or ignore them).


OK here are the people who entered the poll:
