Thanks again, **Dolores**. And **Scarlett** , this was a fun one!  
Believe it or not, I’m not actually trying for the basement. No matter how often I end up here. I will admit to choosing one or two answers per feud simply because they amuse me. (Which is how I ended up going for Smoot.) But even when I skip the amusement factor, I’d still end up off in scattergories land: My other impulse for question 10 was Pascal. :smack:

Thanks Dolores!

I have no idea how I got in the top 10 and I didn’t even remember Opal and apparently I’m the only one watching house reruns this summer playing Fueds.

I overthought the adrogynous name question. I had put Pat and then I thought “well, that is actually short for Patrick and Patricia. Not the same.” Not even ocnsidering that it doesn’t matter how hyper-correct I am, I need to pick the most quoted answer.

If my math is right, I would have had 334 had I submitted on time. Damn, again!

If … puppy … bunny.

However, I really enjoyed the feud you supplied yesterday. Thanks

And Dolores, thanks for hosting these, I can’t imagine the work, and if you offer to show me I’ll decline.

I’m glad you and the others who’ve commented liked it. I was worried I took the fun out of it for too many people.

Glad everybody enjoyed it. I wrote it during a long drive by myself; need to do that more often!

Nobody came up with my third idea for the three-initials person: C.P.E. Bach. (I’m very familiar with P.D.Q., though!) Wow to the number of options I hadn’t even thought of. You guys are brilliant!

One of my better finishes. The annoying part is that somebody used the boy/girl name question in a previous feud and I answered Pat but Chris was the winner that time. Somehow I remembered that, so this time I cleverly took the answer I figured was a proven winner.

Nah, it furrowed my brow a bit, but it was still fun, I enjoyed it.

Turns out I’m glad I was too late to be included in this one, eep!
