Sounds good, lets play!

[ZipperJJ]

Just to interject (I'm on the Blue Team) - I don't want to reshuffle players. I like my team. We're not losing because we suck we're just extremely unfortunate :)

If we're going to go down, and go down this hard, I would rather it be with all the folks that helped get us down here, not with some other people. LOL

You are on the blue team. The red team is playing this round, though.

Blue -- start discussing your steal.

[MadTheSwine]

Wendy's hamburger patty?

Card Table?

[Sternvogel]

Pizza box?

Polaroid photo?

[Taber]

floppy disk?


though pizza box is pretty good

[Taber]

also: possibly coasters?

Though I guess I'd vote for pizza box, floppy disk, or card table over coasters

[Dolores Reborn]

post-it notes, a window, and postage stamp are my guesses

[cmkeller]

I still like my original guess of Sicilian pizza, but my second choice would be postage stamp.

[ZipperJJ]

I'm liking pizza box and floppy disk.

Window is not generally thought of to be flat and square. Sicilian pizza, while flat and square...well to be honest, I would never have thought of that myself and it makes me doubt it'd be on a 12-answer poll. Post-it notes...hmm....these days, not always square so twix may not have thought of those. All the ones on my desk are rectangular. Postage stamps aren't square (close, but not square).

Not trying to knock my teammates - just trying to reason out our "best" answer :)

[Abby_Emma_Sasha]

I'm thinking napkin. The kind you put on a table.

[MadTheSwine]

I like napkin also.

[Frosted Glass]

I like pizza box.

[JpnDude]

napkin or pizza box....hmmm

[Dolores Reborn]

Napkin is good! Let's go with that!

[ZipperJJ]

I dunno, guys. Napkins aren't always square. The napkins at McDonalds aren't square. Cloth napkins usually aren't square.

Pizza boxes - like CDs, checkerboards, trivets, saltines and album covers are ALWAYS square.

[Dolores Reborn]

Good point. Ok, pizza box.

[twickster]

So .... pizza box? napkin? Are y'all headed toward consensus?

[ZipperJJ]

Well that's 7 votes for pizza box and only 3 for napkin with 1 retraction.

So, if no one comes in soon making the vote against it, I say pizza box is the Blue team's answer.

(ugh...I hate being a leader. Someone else come lead us right now. Just come say "I say our team says pizza box, twickster" and get it over with.)

[JpnDude]

I say ZipperJJ says pizza box and I would not object if it is chosen as Blue Team's answer, twickster. :D

This is our closest shot at actually getting points. WOW!

[Abby_Emma_Sasha]

If youse guys want to go with pizza box, okay. I think napkin is better.

[Dolores Reborn]

Pizza box, Twickster!

[Dolores Reborn]

Whoop-de-doo! We didn't get skunked! Post-it note and napkin were both there, too.

Way to go Blue! Let's see if we can pull off a win now!

[Abby_Emma_Sasha]

Okay, I'm having a problem with some definitions here. A pizza box, to me, is not flat. Square, to be sure, but flat not so much.

Someone said a postage stamp was not square. Huh? Yes, it is. And yet it was not in the answers. A stamp is certainly flatter than a pizza box. Weird.

It doesn't really matter since it's just a game, but since I've been bitching to my husband I figure I should bring my qualms here where this all began and give him some peace. :D

[What Exit?]

twickster: Did you decide which way we would take the next round.
Do we cram it in by Thursday and then go on hiatus or do we switch positions?

I can work on my Richard Dawson immitation. ;)

Let me know here or by Email/PM

Jim

[twickster]

A_E_S -- sorry you don't like my answers. I think it was clear (after the first round I handled) that my questions and answers are all a trifle askew; when given the choice to dump be as emcee, the majority seemed to be willing to continue to play with me running the game regardless.

On your specific questions: Most stamps are rectangular, though some are close to square and a few are square. (I have two different books of stamps in my wallet at the moment -- both are rectangular.) Overall, not, though.

Re: Pizza box -- all the answers given are three-dimensional objects, though most are under an inch, if not under a half-inch. How thick should something be before it's "not flat"? One could argue that a pizza box, though a trifle thicker than a Sicilian pizza, is an even plane, and thus "flatter" than the bumpy surface of the latter. Or not.

Again -- sorry you don't like my answers -- this is how the game is being played at the moment, though.

And WE? -- only a couple people have weighed in with an opinion, and they all seem to want to wait till I get back. So -- what do people think -- play till Thursday then take a break while I'm in Europe, or hand the game over to WE? while I'm gone?

[Baron Greenback]

I'd be happy for What Exit? to take over until you get back.

[What Exit?]

And WE? -- only a couple people have weighed in with an opinion, and they all seem to want to wait till I get back. So -- what do people think -- play till Thursday then take a break while I'm in Europe, or hand the game over to WE? while I'm gone?
I am good with either way or Idle returning. I was not sure what he decision was.

Thank you twickster, I will get a list posted by 2 pm EST.

twickster, are you taking my spot until you leave? That might be the easiest, or do you just want to jump back on Blue Team?

[JpnDude]

twickster, since What Exit? is running things for now, does that mean you'll be back on our team? That is, if you have time before your trip?

"I hope so, I hope so!"

Excited for the next round... Go Blue!

[twickster]

I am True Blue -- I'll play for my favorite underdogs till I leave.

[Dolores Reborn]

Uh - do I get to keep my spot?

[JpnDude]

I am True Blue -- I'll play for my favorite underdogs till I leave.
Ooh, "True Blue". I like how you put that. :cool:

Yippee!

[Abby_Emma_Sasha]

Re: Pizza box -- all the answers given are three-dimensional objects, though most are under an inch, if not under a half-inch. How thick should something be before it's "not flat"?

I'll continue to play the game, since all my answers have made it to the top. :D
But, I must disagree on the pizza box. I get my pizzas from Pizza Hut. I would never buy pizza anywhere else and the boxes are definitely not under an inch. I understand people in such dire places as New York and Chicago may get their pizzas at some godforsaken homemade yokel type store, but we civilized folks know Pizza Hut rules. May some Gods have mercy on the souls who do not partake in the goodness that is Meat Lovers Pizza (from Pizza Hut).

[twickster]

Uh - do I get to keep my spot?
Sure -- why not?

[Dolores Reborn]

Because I took your spot when you took over the game, and I think What is on the Red team and we would be lopsided or something.

[What Exit?]

I am getting the following teams: Current score is 43 to 6 for the Red Team.

Red Team: Struan, LilyoftheValley, Kat, hocow, myskepticsight, frog princess, ArizonaTeach, Rodgers01, IvoryTowerDenizen 9 members

Blue Team: ZipperJJ, Frosted Glass, Secret Volcano Lair, Sternvogel, Taber, Abby_Emma_Sasha, Delores Reborn, Avarie537, Pygmy Rugger, cmkeller, JpnDude, MadTheSwine 12 members

I think we need to do a little balancing. I am not sure how.

ETA: I think we lost Ruby along the way. So we either need a few new members for red or 1 or 2 volunteers to move from blue to red.

Jim

[Abby_Emma_Sasha]

I'd really like to stay blue, cause I love the underdog. Can we put out feelers for red members? I know we're losing but I want to be blue over you. I'd rather be blue over you than be hap hap happy with somenody else.

[twickster]

Why do you need more members? You're beating the tar out of us.

[What Exit?]

Why do you need more members? You're beating the tar out of us.
Sounds good. Blue team will have 13 members then and Red will 9. The next 3 people to join the game will go to red.

I will post the list very close to 2pm {EST}. I have one made up.

Remember current score is 43 to 6 for the Red Team. We are playing to 50, so if Blue fails to get this, Red wins the first game.

[Dolores Reborn]

Ok, let's go BLUE!

I have - zebra, camel, llama, and leopard. I asked my husband and he thought of zebra before camel...

[Sternvogel]

I have - zebra, camel, llama, and leopard. I asked my husband and he thought of zebra before camel...

I thought of camel, so that's my suggestion.

[Taber]

I like camel, but I might be thinking of my local zoo, which briefly offered camel rides when I was a kid.

Another possibility is giraffe, but I am certain that I am just grabbing that from animal crackers.

My official vote at this point is camel

[Baron Greenback]

Survey says:

Bzzzzzz!



Nooooooooooooooo!

Sorry team.

[Dolores Reborn]

I'm pretty sure a camel is in the animal cracker box, too. Seems like I remember a camel in the Barnum & Bailey circus parade around the ring...

[twickster]

My thought was zebra, though camel ain't bad.

ETA: link (http://www.ringling.com/animals/exotics/exotics.aspx).

[ZipperJJ]

I'm thinking...

Zebra, leopard, camel

Gosh...this will be hard to come to a consensus on. I haven't been to the circus in YEARS!

[twickster]

What Exit? -- are we allowed to ask if zebras are the same thing as horses?

[Frosted Glass]

I am torn between zebra and camel but I think I am leaning harder towards camel.

[What Exit?]

What Exit? -- are we allowed to ask if zebras are the same thing as horses?
I think you are allowed to ask.

If Zebra was the same as Horses, I would have posted Horses and other Equines. So for my list it is not the same.



BTW: The earlier post were a player guessed and answer already on the board. I was correct to issue a strike, wasn't I?

[cmkeller]

I vote camel as well.

[Baron Greenback]

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bert's_Family_Feud

seems to agree with you

"Each family member has an opportunity to give his/her own answers. If the answer they give does not appear on the board, repeat an answer on the board, or takes too long to think of a possible answer on the board, they earn an unwanted strike"

[twickster]

Not that you're asking me, but yes you were correct.
Yeah, I would have also.

And thanks for the zebra info -- that's what I thought, but I wanted to make sure.

Okay -- time for this little cowgirl to head home -- if we're ready to guess, my vote is for camel, though if we do zebra I'm good with that too. I'll be back in a few hours to see what happens!

Go Blue!

[Dolores Reborn]

In the original game, they had a timer (5 secs?) to think of a new answer if the contestant said an answer already on the board. So I think that since there is no time limit, a strike is in order.

(I mean in the regular rounds, not the speed round.)

[Dolores Reborn]

I count 5 camels, no zebras... including my vote of camel.

[twickster]

I count 5 camels, no zebras... including my vote of camel.
One zebra. But yeah, let's go with camel.

[Dolores Reborn]

Is that enough? Should we wait for more people?

Dolores Reborn had said Leopard and I think someone else. I recall seeing a leopard riding a horse in a circus on TV. I have never seen the Seals or Sea Lions, but I remember them from cartoons with Circus themes. The Rest seemed pretty common.

More the second one.

[anyrose]

Well anyrose our team seems to be down a member or two. Are you willing to go through a rigorous induction process? Key skills include: lurking around on the boards at ungodly hours, swift and accurate typing, and trying to fathom the workings of the deranged minds of the quiz-setters. Are you ready?
I thought I did that already ;)

Am I red or blue?

[Dolores Reborn]

You fit in perfectly!!! :D (You're red.)

I say play this one.

[twickster]

I think the odds are good we won't get all 15. Will they be able to steal? (And who the hell cares, since we're getting tromped anyway.)

[Dolores Reborn]

No, Twicks, it's a new game!!! The score is 0-0. You may be right about the stealing though. But it's fun to play. I'll go along with the majority.

Independence Hall

The St. Louis Arch

The Alamo

Liberty Bell!

I like Lincoln memorial. (I like others as well, but think Lincoln memorial is best)

Liberty bell, St. Louis arch, and pentagon are also pretty good

Definately Lincoln memorial...I think this is a sure thing.

The Liberty Bell is at Independence Hall. (It's actually across the street in its own pavilion.)

USS Arizona Memorial
The Alamo

"The Hollywood Sign"? (Hey, I'm from LA!) :D

What about that Iwo Jima statue?

I also like the Lincoln Memorial since it's on the penny.

The first one I thought of was the Lincoln Memorial. GMTA

[twickster]

Well, we've got six shots at it, so the odds are on our side. I personally like Independence Hall, but am willing to go with Lincoln Memorial if that's what people want.

Small note about my lists, I am trying to use 3-5 sources to determine the answers and the rankings. For this list, once I determined the 11 items, I used Google to give each its votes, but jumped the ESB over the White House & Pentagon that gets many extra hits for being in the National news daily.
