> [@Enderw24](#): > > 1. Gilbert Gottfried \* > > - I see on preview that a number of people misspelled his name, but it still works even with the correct spelling. Aha, so you’re interpreting the rule to mean that the letters “god” have to be in order, but not necessarily consecutive. I didn’t think of that. ---

For what it’s worth, I considered Gottfried, but then decided that I’d better double-check how his name is spelled. Too bad for me, I guess. ---

OK, so switching from _Oh, God_ to _The Godfather_ did in fact hurt me, though not by very much. In fact, no single answer really hurt me very much, but I guess those small points add up. Still, better than I usually do. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/feud-of-the-gods-game-over/596512.md?page=2)
