I’ll admit that after all of the feuds I’ve played in, I still don’t understand the scoring system. The division of a hundred by the number of entrants seems an unnecessary complication. How does it change the score from the simpler method of just adding up the number of matching answers?

Dang, sorry I missed it. Maybe do an after-Oscar wrapup Feud now?

Well, you have a point, **Little Nemo**. However, I just use the scoring spreadsheet that **Mullinator** wrote years ago. Sometimes I wish I could modify it, but it’s too complicated for me! So I just use it as is.
