The Daily Feud: An Aviation Feud by Elendil's Heir [Game Over]

NEW RULES!

DO NOT READ THIS THREAD BEFORE YOU POST YOUR ANSWERS

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. Only answers that are “serious” will be scored. Joke answers will not be considered, as it is not fair to other players.

New formatting rules:

If they are not followed, your answers may 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, dammit!

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 - Any answer duplicated by anyone else is worth 100 points divided by the number of entrants. For example: 50 entrant game = 2 pts per answer. If 4 people match that means they each get 8 pts for that answer. No matches = 0 points.

If any of you have ideas for Feuds -and would like me to score them- PM me and I’ll get you on The List.

The game will end either when we have 50 entrants, or at 3:30 PM Central on Thursday, 02/26/09 whichever comes first.
Good luck!

  12. My dad (born 1934) claims that when he was in school, he was periodically assigned to stand on the roof and watch for invading Zeroes. I think the teacher just wanted an excuse to get him out of the classroom once in a while.

  13. Properly the B-2 Spirit

  14. Amazingly, only 199 were ever produced, yet over 100 airlines used the craft at various times.

  15. As I’ve mentioned previously on this board, my sister had a ticket for the flight, but changed her plans (no premonition, just wanted to stay in Europe a few extra days)
