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

Right now, the mods are having difficulties changing thread titles. I’m sorry if you come in to a Feud that is already over.

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.

_ **FORMATTING OF ANSWERS IS IMPORTANT!** _

**Write your answers like this** ; Do not repeat the questions, no periods at the end of answers, no spaces between lines, no comments, no fancy list coding. If you need to comment or clarify your answers, do it AFTER the list of answers. Thanks.  
JUST LIKE THIS:

**1. answer \<\<—There is a space after the period!  
2. response  
3. rejoinder**

The game will end either when we have 50 entrants, or at **4:00 PM Central** on Sunday, 9/14/08 whichever comes first.

Good luck!

::hangs head:: I’m stupid…I read “common poker hand” as the first poker hand that someone might think of, not as one that people would actually get playing poker. When I read the other answers, I kind of realized, “Ohh…”

Just fyi for scoring, “Kings Pawn two spaces” “pawn to king four” are the same thing. Apologies if you already knew this. Not sure about D2-D4. Isn’t that the Queen’s pawn?

It is, I screwed up my chess notation and forgot that King’s pawn is the “preferred” opener.
