**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 your post look exactly like this: 1. answer 2. answer 3. answer 4. 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) Anyone who responds to a question with two answers will only have the first one counted as their answer. 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: 1. A book from the Old Testament 2. A book from the New Testament 3. An apostle 4. A king from the Bible 5. A woman in the Old Testament 6. A man in the Old Testament 7. A city in the Bible 8. A deadly sin 9. A movie based on a Biblical story 10. A plague ---

1. Genesis 2. Matthew 3. John 4. David 5. Eve 6. Moses 7. Jerusalem 8. Pride 9. The Ten Commandments 10. Locusts Finally a feud right down my alley! Don’t screw it up Dopers! #5 was tough: my first thought was Sarah, but I figured too many Dopers wouldn’t think of her. Then I thought Bathsheba, since my previous answer was David, but her name might not come immediately to mind. So I went with Eve, which now makes me think I should have said Adam for #6 but oh well. ---

My choice in 5 was influenced by the answer to 4; would have gone with Ruth probably if they weren’t right after each other. Guessing 2, 7, and 8 will be near-conches. ---

Dammit. I can’t believe I didn’t go with Eve. On the other hand, you inexplicably chose Pride, so we’ll both have badly off-conch choices to deal with. ETA and John over Paul, ya hippie! (George was the heart of the band anyway). ---
