> **Rebo** – how are you going to score #1? I gave the generic “superhero,” and I’m seeing Superman, Batman, Spider-Man as answers. Will those count as one answer or four?

I think “superhero” is too generic, and will be counted separately.

ok - another rules question  
I see a lot of “princess”'s for 5 yr old girl - but there is one Ariel (the little mermaid) and one Tinkerbell (now starring in her won Disney flicks) so I think those both match my Disney Princess, while not necessarily matching each other

“Disney princess” matches “princess,” the others are standalone answers, because they are specific, not generic, characters.

ETA: **Zebra** is #42.

Well, Halloween has been over for a few days. Once a holiday passes, it seems natural that interest in a Feud based on the holiday would wane.
