Not to sound like a party pooper, but: you seriously think that’s a level 1 (I’m assuming 1 is easiest at 3 is hardest) question? Arrested Development? I know that show has its rabid fans, but you’re not exactly asking a trivia question about a wildly popular show, like Seinfeld or Cheers or MASH or something.

In short, yes. I made the question, I rated it. What are you, the ref?

2. Lobos something or other. Crap. You sure that’s a “2”?!

1. Right
2. Canis lupus. I dunno. I think I need someone to edit my rating system. (I almost rated it a 1, in fact.) Maybe I just need to increase all my questions by 1 point. And then delete all the "4"s that result.

Current score -3

Difficulty level 2:
What’s the tallest building in Chicago?

Difficulty level 3:
Who is the only President to have been elected unanimously?

Difficulty level 2:
What is the least populated continent?

Difficulty level 1:

NEW RULE: Painfully Obvious questions are worth ZERO points. I get to decide which of these qualify.

Such as: What does water become when it freezes into a solid?

The Marinas Trench? I think I’m missing a word.

Cheney, Moe & Curly. Yes, an apolitical guy hangs out here. But hey… It’s Bush’s cabinet, it must be close.

OOF. Triassic? (probably not that obvious, is it? Probably some shit like Cambrian.)

Close. Triassic is the era before the Jurassic. The correct answer was Cretaceous.

[spoiler]Look dude, we have got a really big pool going on with this back here. I could get you in on the cut if I e-mail you the answers as I post the questions. Either that or you could just send me your strong caregories and a few questions you might like to see. It might be nice if you take a dive on some other people’s three pointers as well. We can win this thing together.
