The Replacement Feud: Places that start with C by "The Concensus" [Game Over]

[Biffy_the_Elephant_Shrew]

@ArchiveGuy

I would argue just the opposite–all the examples used were common nouns, not proper nouns. She couldn’t use any that started with C (duh), but I found the intent perfectly clear–a geographic description on a generic level, not a specific place name.

It’ll be interesting to see the final number on how many interpreted it each way…

Regardless, those of us who answered with specific locations are going to get screwed, match-wise.

Elendil’s Heir, what say you?

[Elendil_s_Heir]

I had in mind a particular geographic feature: “Mount Everest,” say, rather than “mountain,” if it was an “M” Feud. But I leave it up to DoloRebo.

    ETA: Hope I made it in time!

You know … on further review, I actually meant “Lake Champlain” for #7, but I didn’t include the “Lake” part on account of, well, I thought you only wanted the “C” part. Duh.

[Rebo]

rockle is #49. Let’s see if we can get one more entry before I score it. (Although I’ll get started soon. :))

[Ellen_Cherry]

I interpreted it as “generic feature,” which is why I gave the lame answer of “continent.”

Well, my answer was “channel”. I don’t think there are any matches. My really lame answer was the “W” feud. I answered “WEST.”

While I’m STILL facepalming for not thinking of Columbus, I am chuffed as all get out that 2 other people chose Champlain.

[Freudian_Slit]

Sweet. Also I haven’t been getting notifications for the last couple–am I still on the list?

[Really_Not_All_That_Bright]

How does he always win!?!

There are notifications?

[Freudian_Slit]

@Really_Not_All_That_Bright

There are notifications?

If you sign up to be PMed when a new feud goes up.

[Rebo]

@Freudian_Slit

Sweet. Also I haven’t been getting notifications for the last couple–am I still on the list?

My last notification email was for the “Places that start with W” Feud - I skipped the “C” one.

Yes, you’re still on the list. ReallyNATB, do you want me to add you?
You know, if **Swampy **was always the last poster to the Feud every time or something, I’d think he was cheating. But he’s not the last one! I have no idea how he does it.

Congrats, Swampy1

[Really_Not_All_That_Bright]

Oooh, yes please!

[Freudian_Slit]

@Rebo

My last notification email was for the “Places that start with W” Feud - I skipped the “C” one.

Ah, just making sure. Thanks!

[Biffy_the_Elephant_Shrew]

Huh, better than I thought I’d do. I actually got matches for the Carpathians!

[notfrommensa]

Dad gumm it, beaten by the Worm. Languishing near the bottom once again.

Cannes? Carson City? Cancun? Channels? no wonder I came in last. Carson City should get a bonus because it is a “double C” Doesn’t Scattergories have that rule?

Speaking of Scattergories, wasn’t there some Scattergories games on this board last year some time?

[Elendil_s_Heir]

Despite my low score, that was worth the wait. Thanks, all, and as always, many many thanks to DoloRebo!

[Rebo]

I have a vague memory of Scattergories on the Dope…
