I have a Facebook page. My fiancee made it for me, and started accepting friend requests from people I disliked, so I had to take over, even though I’d flatly refused to join Facebook originally. ---

**I have never been to Facebook** , although I have been invited several times, and just might get myself a page there one of these days. ---

\*\*A couple of oyster-eating squids for you. I’ve only had them a few times. I’m not really a fan. I prefer mussels as far as bivalves are concerned. Oh, and I joined Facebook about a week ago. Too bad this question didn’t come out in Round 1. Two social networking squids coming your way.\*\* ---

> [@WormTheRed](#): > > This is the **Sudden and Lethal Death Round**! You give up 5 points per yes and gain no points. So it’s all downhill now… By “gain no points” I presume you mean “gain points for each no” rather than “you don’t gain points”? And, BTW, how negative can one get? Doesn’t this give a huge advantage to the folks who go first? Or is it score at end of round that matters? ---

Doesn’t this give a huge advantage to the folks who go first? Or is it score at end of round that matters? By “gain no points” I mean that even if everyone answers yes to my statements, I still don’t get any. All squids will be thrown out into the sea, be abandonded, left to fend for themselves, and so on. Hence, the only advantage will be that the earlier you go, the surer you are of making your awesome third round statement. ---

Slowly fumbling through the fog, you suddenly feel an updraft on your face. You all manage to stop, before something happens. Except for one of you who bursts out: _Hey, what’s thaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaat!!!_ _splash_ And then they were nine… \*\*Ellen Cherry \*\*is sleeping with the squids. ---

And that concludes round 2. And I’ll lead with round 3: **Never have I ever been in a relationship that’s lasted longer than 3 months.** And by relationship, I mean romantic endevour with someone of your preferred sex.
