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. Maximum 50 entrants, and I’ll score it when I have time.
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, 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 explain your answer, do it AFTER THE LIST!  
If you don’t format like this, your answers might be DISQUALIFIED.

Scoring:  
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.  
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

1. Besides a tent, name something you might take camping.
2. Name a city that has hosted a Summer Olympics.
3. Besides barbecue, name a food associated with summer.
4. Name a common summer household chore.
5. Name one of the actors in the movie “I Know What You Did Last Summer.”
6. Name a color associated with summer.
7. Name a Donna Summer song.
8. How many minutes can you be out in the sun without getting a sunburn?
9. Name a song often associated with summer that does NOT have the words “summer” or “summertime” in the title.
10. Name a character in Shakespeare’s “A Midsummer Night’s Dream”.

#2 is a trick question, right? “Has hosted” rules out London… I hope …  
#8 – me, personally? Much longer.

Great Feud! Happy summer, everyone!

No, London is the once and future host city. In addition to the upcoming 2012 games, it’s already hosted the 1908 and 1948 games.
