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.

**DO NOT READ THIS THREAD BEFORE YOU POST YOUR ANSWERS**

Try to think of the most popular answer, to get the most people matching you. 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.

_ **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 **4:30 PM Central** on Sunday, 8/24/08 whichever comes first.

Good luck!  
I hope you don’t mind that I added some “besides” to your questions, **InvisibleWombat**.

1. Besides chicken or turkey, name a bird you eat.
2. Name a really big bird.
3. Name a really small bird.
4. Name a Doper associated with birds.
5. Name a common bird pet.
6. Name a famous cartoon bird.
7. Besides To Kill a Mockingbird, name a movie with a bird in the title.
8. Besides To Kill a Mockingbird, name a classic book with a bird in the title.
9. Name a scary or creepy bird.
10. Name a bird that can’t fly.
