If any of you have ideas for Feuds -_and would like me to score them_- PM me and I’ll get you on The List. _ **Read all the Rules!** _ _ **DO NOT READ THIS THREAD BEFORE YOU POST YOUR ANSWERS** _ Try to think of the most popular answer, to get the most people matching you. Scoring - Any answer duplicated by anyone else is worth 100 points divided by the number of entrants. For example: 50 entrant game = 2 pts per answer. If 4 people match that means they each get 8 pts for that answer. No matches = 0 points. _ **READ THIS!!!** _ **Write your answers like this** ; Do not repeat the questions, no periods at the end of answers, no spaces between lines, no comments, no fancy list coding. If you need to comment or clarify your answers, do it AFTER the list of answers. Thanks. JUST LIKE THIS: **1. answer 2. response 3. rejoinder** If this format is ignored, our resident bouncer **Brujaja** will come in and kick your ass! The game will end either when we have 50 entrants, or at 4:30 PM Central on Friday, 7/18/08 whichever comes first. Good luck! 1. Name a famous Broadway performer (male). 2.

[QUOTE=Zebra] OK What is ‘the conch’? [/QUOTE] Conch is when something gets an overwhelming number of answers. It comes from a feud where a question was “Name a type of shell” and pretty much everyone said “conch,” whereas a slightly greater variety might have been expected. So, everyone saying “Tommy” is a conch. Although not too unexpected. The only other one I can think of right off the top of my head is “Spring Awakening” and I wasn’t sure how many others would choose that, so I went with “Tommy.” ---
