Father's Day Feud [game over]

3 more players needed!

  1. Ward Cleaver
  2. The Godfather, Don Vito Corleone
  3. Tools
  4. Poppa was a Rolling Stone
  5. Sean Kemp
  6. Alaska
  7. Utah
  8. Buy a flashy car
  9. 1920s
  10. 48%

Naw, the category asks about the role, not the actor.

OTOH, I probably would merge “Cosby” with “Huxtable”.

  1. Homer Simpson
  2. Daniel Hillard (Mrs Doubtfire)
  3. Pen/Pencil set
  4. Papa Don’t Preach
  5. Mick Jagger
  6. Alaska
  7. Florida
  8. Buy a Sports Car
  9. 1910s
  10. 60%

I really sucked at this the last time, let’s see if I do better with Dad.

  1. the guy on “tool time”
  2. Darth Vader
  3. fishing equipment
  4. “Daddy’s Home”
  5. Luc Besson
  6. Wyoming
  7. District of Columbia
  8. have an affair
  9. 1910s
  10. 65.2?

Have a feeling I shoulda said “conch” in there somewhere.

Friendly advice, brujaja: When a question asks for a percentage, always round at least to the nearest 5, if not to the nearest 10. Even if the correct answer really is 65.2%, nobody else is going to say that, so it’s not going to earn any points. If you had said, say, 65% instead, then you would have gotten a few matches.

Ha!

Ok - that’s 50. I’ll start scoring. And I’ll report the title change.

Chronos: Oh, yeah good advice. I went to a site with a breakdown of child living situations vis a vis their biological fathers and added up the percentages of all qualifying situations. But, duh. I’m sure you’re right.

Truth be told, I’ve never quite gotten past my original (mis)impression that you are meant to say the first thing that comes to mind with feud questions. Heh, hence the “tool time” answer. I actually had to wrack my brains for it, too.

Missed it by that much!

:slight_smile:

Well, I did awful. I don’t know what I was thinking on a lot of my answers. :smack:

Holy crap, I never win these things!

Anyway, I’d like to thank the Academy, and Dolores Reborn.

My long national nightmare is over and I’m back to not winning feuds but still beating Asimovian. Woo!

I like to think of my consistently low finishes as propping up my fellow Dopers. Some of us don’t feel the need to be selfish.

And I’m consistently consistent. Somehow, it’s depressing to be the most normal doper in how abnormal I am.

Probably my worst standing ever, but I love these feuds.

Please make some more Dolores. :slight_smile:
