Ed: Dang, two hours too late. I would’ve had a score of 136, completely missing questions 8 and 10 (with the Lounge).

Edit : Dang, that’s what I get for not reading the thread…
Dolores, two answers you have for 18 are actually the same.
The killer in the Murder of Roger Ackroyd is… The narrator(Just in case someone hasn’t read it).
Which one is 18 again?
Oh, he meant #8.
I demand a drug test. Otak does not belong at 10. There is clearly a component here which must account for the outrageous results.
The Worm is in the ground where worms belong. Otak is not where he should be. I want a recount. I want everyone to be tested. TILT,TILT,TILT
And you’re trying to claim you belong at #16?
Or are you just pissed that I beat you even when you did so well?
Worm, don’t worry, I’ll be back where I belong, soon.
Freudian Slit is correct. I meant q8 but missed the “q” key. Sorry.
Tied for 18th! Woohoo! Many thanks again, DoloRebo.
Woo-hoo! Second place! (How I got there is a mystery. :)) Thanks for the fun Feud, Dolores and Elendil’s Heir!
