If any of you have ideas for Feuds -and would like me to score them- PM me and I’ll get you on The List.
DO NOT READ THIS THREAD BEFORE YOU POST YOUR ANSWERS
Try to think of the most popular answer, to get the most people matching you. Scoring - Any answer duplicated by anyone else is worth 100 points divided by the number of entrants. For example: 50 entrant game = 2 pts per answer. If 4 people match that means they each get 8 pts for that answer. No matches = 0 points.
FORMATTING OF ANSWERS IS IMPORTANT!
Write your answers like this; Do not repeat the questions, no periods at the end of answers, no spaces between lines, no comments, no fancy list coding. If you need to comment or clarify your answers, do it AFTER the list of answers. Thanks.
JUST LIKE THIS:
1. answer
2. response
3. rejoinder
The game will end either when we have 50 entrants, or at 4:30 PM Central on Wednesday, 7/23/08 whichever comes first. Good luck!

ADDED BY THE MODS AT THE REQUEST OF 5-4-Fighting:
All answers (except the state) should be people who are black, and the answer to any non-specific questions, can be either male or female.
I assumed the intent was to answer the questions with people who are black even though several of the questions didn’t specific that.
I’ll also admit I had to look up answers for 7 and 10. I don’t follow modern art and couldn’t name any current artists from memory, black or otherwise and I didn’t know the first name of any of the Pointer Sisters.
Looking at other people’s answers, I see I should have gone with my first guess for 9 and said Barry but I figured Nagin would be better known nowadays.
Name a currently working black male artist (i.e., painting, sculpture, etc.).
Did I just call Kara Walker a man?!?! :smack: In my own feud thread too. This, along with my place-centric choices of “New York (4)” and “David Dinkins (9),” doesn’t bode well for me, I’m afraid.
