Yeah, I tied for 2nd! Still, it’s interesting to see the very varied responses to the strip questions. There’s a lot in the Order of the Stick to pull from. I only had one strip the same with anyone else.
There was a pretty wide split on the value of the answers. Questions 1, 2, 4, 5, and 10 were where the answers clustered together. If you got the best answers on those five, you got 41 points. By contrast, getting the best possible answers on questions 3, 6, 7, 8, and 9, would have only given you 11 points.
I didn’t know the strip well enough to play, but now I’ve started reading it online and really like it. Thanks, guys!

Okay, nevermind. I just saw the link over in the Cafe Society thread, but I’m toooo laaate!!! I thought about putting Miko, but I was set on Linear Guild for some reason, and I wasn’t sure if I should put the whole group or just a member.
Oh sure, now you match my answer! Where were you when I needed that extra point to tie for 2nd??
Seriously, this was fun, Little Nemo. I’ve never playd in a Feud before and I’m pretty surprised I didn’t totally suck at guessing. Thanks for coming up with the questions and tallying 'em!
Pshaw! I wish I’d seen this earlier. I got a little tied up in Mafia. Okay, a lot tied up. Tied up and dead. And the recent Feuds have been really hard!
