Object of the game:
Give the most popular answer for each category. You want to match the other people in the game.
Rules:
1. No reading the thread before answering. This is on the honor system.
2. Formatting rules must be followed (see below).
3. Joke answers will not be considered, as it is not fair to other players.
4. Google (etc.) is allowed, if you desire.
5. Maximum 50 entrants, and I’ll score it when I have time.
6. There is no Rule 6. 😉
Formatting rules:
To make semi-automated scoring possible, and my job easier, make your post look exactly like this:
1. answer
2. answer
3. answer
4. answer
No double spacing, no smilies, no urls, no periods, no quote marks, and no punctuation if it is not necessary. Put “pass” if you want to leave an answer blank. If you feel you must qualify your answer, do it AFTER THE LIST!
If you don’t format like this, your answers might be DISQUALIFIED.
Here are the rules. PLEASE read them!
```auto
**1. DO NOT READ THIS THREAD BEFORE YOU POST YOUR ANSWERS** , lest you see the other answers. Scroll really fast to the bottom, or hit "end" on your keyboard. We play by the honor system. There is a chance you won't get in the game after it's gone to two pages, it's just the way it goes. There is typically a lot of chatter posts that aren't answer posts, so give it a shot anyway!
**2. Object of the game: Try to think of the most popular answer,** to get the most people matching you. Google is allowed, if you desire.
3. Formatting rules:
If formatting is not followed, your answers might be **DISQUALIFIED**!
1. answer
2. answer
3. answer
4. answer
Make your list look like the one above. No double spacing. No periods (except for the one following the number.) No quote marks, no punctuation if it is not necessary! No smilies! No extraneous bullshit is allowed. If you feel you must qualify your answer, do it **AFTER THE LIST**!
The reason this is so important is because I cut and paste all the answers, and I have to edit each answer to make them identical. It is a lot of work, so please make it easier on me. Thanks.
Scoring - All matching answers will be worth 2 points each. For example: If 4 people match that means they each get 8 pts for that answer. No matches = 0 points.
The game will end when I feel that no more people are going to play, or a maximum of 50. I'll score as fast as time will allow.
Good luck!
1. What do kids often ask to delay going to bed?
2. Name something that comes in pairs.
3. Name a canned meat you might have in your pantry.
4. Name something you have to buy a ticket for.
5. Besides cucumbers, name something that is pickled.
6. What item of clothing do you have the most multiples of in the laundry?
7. In your opinion, how many days can you keep a banana before it goes bad?
8. Name something appealing about working from home.
9. Tell me something for which Kentucky is famous.
10. In which place are we told to keep quiet?

1: I assume that we’re looking for the delaying tactic, not the reason for wanting a delay.
3: Not likely true, but I’m guessing it’ll be the first thing to come to mind
9: My first instinct was fried chicken. I hope I don’t regret changing.

…Wait, Nashville is Tennessee, not Kentucky, isn’t it?
But I wouldn’t have thought of booze or horses, anyway.
