**Object of the game:** Give the most popular answer for each category. **Rules:** 1. **No reading the thread before answering.** This is on the honor system. 2. Formatting rules must be followed (see below). 3. Joke answers will not be considered, as it is not fair to other players. 4. Google (etc.) is allowed, if you desire. 5. The game will end with 50 entrants, or when I get time to score it. 6. There is no Rule 6. 7. 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: 1. answer 2. answer 3. answer 4. answer No double spacing, no smilies, no “list” function, 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** I combined two winter themed Feuds from **Sidney Evgeni Jordan** and **42fish**. No special rules. 1. How many days can you be stuck in your house by the snow until you officially go stir crazy? 2. How much would you have to pay the neighbors’ kid to shovel your driveway? (Just type a number, don’t use $ [dollar sign] or spell it out.) 3. Name an item the stores sell out of when a big storm is forecast. 4. How many inches of snow does it take to call a storm a blizzard? (Just guess! Don’t use the inch mark, just type a number.) 5. Name a movie that has a cold winter setting. 6. Name a winter comfort dish. 7. How many snow days per year in an average year? 8. Name a winter vacation city that’s warm and sunny. 9. Pick one of the following Winter Olympic ice sports: Curling, speed skating, luge, bobsled. 10. Name the single most annoying thing about having two feet of snow on the ground. ---
