r/Bandle

Every day I am baffled at the number of people that get the Bandle wrong. Don’t get me wrong, there are often multiple songs a week that have me stumped. But even in the worst cases, I just use the clue.
Today’s Bandle has a 23% incorrect rate at the time I played it. The song is Little Lion Man. The clue? “Small Lion Guy.” That’s how almost every clue works - every word in the title of the song is replaced by a synonym. So my question is, do people just give up and that counts as a fail? Or do people actually not understand that the clues more often than not explicitly give away the answer? And even when they don’t the search function is good enough to return the result you’re looking for.

What is this, the 6th time this year that there’s been a Red Hot Chilli Peppers song? Every month since last year there’s been either a Michael Jackson or RHCP song. Now I don’t know if it’s easier to get the rights to those artists or if you’re just obsessed with them, but it’s really starting to piss me off.

Sorry if I’m being a dickhead, but someone has to say something eventually.

Almost 3 years of daily play, thank you to mister Bandle for this wonderful game.

I think it is time for a new streak to begin?
