Did anyone get the Today's Pop Stars game? Our game was about celebrities and I was expecting pop musician questions.

<--something told me that someone would post something like this...Image

Since the Topix title did not specifically say "pop music", and also because more often than not (at least IMO) the NTN Buzztime writers of these games tend to think way more than a lil outside whatever boxes we players seem to think apply, it was not even a lil surprise to me. Image

The Topix title did turn out to be a bit misleading. It should've said Today's Popular Stars or something like that, since most of the game featured questions about movie stars. Even when they asked questions about music stars, those questions were often linked to movies.

I did enjoy the Carrie Underwood question, though :D

And I'm sure GIRLIE enjoyed the Justin Timberlake question.

When has NTN Buzztime ever promised to describe Topix to such exact precision as to be clearly understood?? Image

Just remember the Dinosaur Topix game. They are seldom what you expect.
