FTR, I knew that there weren’t many people there, but wasn’t sure how few. I figured half a million was a nice guess, and not too insulting. My state, Florida, has about 60 times your population and is not quite twice the landmass. We also have a dearth of yaks and polar bears, so we are similar in many ways. Come visit some time.
The main difference being that Florida isn’t 90% inhospitable lava fields and sand
Nah, lava* chocolate
*Hraun means lava in icelandic
Yay, my first feud!

Earthquakes are a cool natural phenomenon? Nobody else is going to get that one.
That was the only one I tried to think like everyone else, since earthquakes happen in many more places than just here. I guess my thinking was wrong
Now I just hope I manage to hit rock bottom like Illuminatiprimus did in the UK Feud

#5. I’m pretty sure #4-Denmark is right, but I’m sorta guessing on the year. I know it was right around WW2.
#9. I knew I was misspelling Reyjkavik, so I googled it.
Hah! I still ended up misspelling “Reykjavik”. :smack:

And I still haven’t seen one We have three volcanoes that are due any time now, so I’m keeping my fingers crossed for some action
You probably have plenty more snow than I do. The ground is gray and the twilight is booooring
It just started this weekend. I won’t eat the stuff until the weekend after next though.
Always the funny guy

Jeebus, I’ll be lucky to get one of these right. Maybe two or three.
ETA: Kicking myself on #5 and #6, because it hasn’t been that long since I read the Laxness book and they were all over Denmark, and 1944.
You define earthquakes as “cool natural phenomenons”? :eek: That must be by opposition to “hot natural phenomenons”, like volcanoes erupting or something. Or else, I wouldn’t want to live through an “uncool natural phenomenon” in Iceland!

Let´s keep this thread Feud-related, since there’s another one on the situation right here.
(hey, I don’t want people to miss out on the fun stuff we have happening over here :D)
clairobscur: Volcanic eruptions are also cool! Since they usually aren’t that big and are really funky to watch
Only 33 contestants so far (including the cheaters)… damn, that’s a lot of chatting going on
Nope, can’t do this one. I just can’t think of enough reasonable answers. And I know the answer to 9, but I have no clue how to spell it without Google!
