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. Also, don’t try to score a zero, even with “serious” answers. 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.](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=10778971&postcount=82) The game will end either when we have 50 entrants, or at **3:30 PM Central** on Saturday, 02/28/09 whichever comes first. Good luck! 1. Other than Watson, name someone Sherlock Holmes worked with. 2. Other than 221B Baker Street, name a location that appeared in Sherlock Holmes stories. 3.
