Object of the game:
Give the most popular answer for each category.
Rules:
No reading the thread before answering. This is on the honor system.
Formatting rules must be followed (see below).
Joke answers will not be considered, as it is not fair to other players.
Google (etc.) is allowed, if you desire.
The game will end with 50 entrants, or when I get time to score it.
There is no Rule 6.
Special Rules for this particular Feud: None
Formatting rules:
To make semi-automated scoring possible, and my job easier, make you post look exactly like this:
answer
answer
answer
answer
No double spacing, do not use the “list” function, no smilies, no urls, no periods, no quote marks, and no punctuation if it is not necessary. Put “pass” if you want to leave an answer blank. If you feel you must qualify your answer, do it AFTER THE LIST! If you don’t format like this, your answers might be DISQUALIFIED.
Scoring:
With 50 entrants, an answer with a match is worth 2x the number of people matching it. If 4 people match, they each get 8 points for that answer. No matches = 0 points.
Formula: Score = 100 / (# of entrants) x (# of matches)
Good luck!
If any of you have ideas for Feuds -and would like me to score them- PM me. If anyone wants to run their own Feud, feel free. I will help any way I can.
Read the rules!
Special Rules for this particular Feud: None
Name a month that includes the letter A somewhere in it
Name a leader whose last name begins with A

Name a TV show beginning with A
Name a movie beginning with A
Name a food beginning with A
Name a candy beginning with A
Name a scary thing beginning with A
Name a wonderful thing beginning with A

I can’t be the only one to open this thread thinking “A is for Amy, who fell down the stairs; B is for Basil, assaulted by bears”
8 & 9 - I went “acid & amnesty” at first, and after those two, I almost wanted to go back to #2 and change it to Spiro Agnew.
ETA: wow, I figured Australia would be a near-conch.
For those who – sensibly – go with a month that starts with A, it will be interesting to see how many go with the one with an actual “a” sound that comes first in the calendar, and how many go with the month we’re actually in.
Rebo – I assume all Alans, Allens, Allans will be counted together?
Notes:
4. I’m assuming we’re allowed to ignore the ‘The’ in the title
5. Probably going too far back for many matches
7. Because sometimes you feel like a nut, sometimes you don’t
8. And speaking of nuts…
9. One of the few ways of dealing with #8
