If they are not followed, your answers may be DISQUALIFIED.

1. answer
2. answer
3. answer
4. answer

Make your list look like the one above. No double spacing. No periods (except for the one following the number.) No quote marks, no punctuation if it is not necessary! No smilies! No extraneous bullshit is allowed. If you feel you must qualify your answer, do it AFTER THE LIST, dammit!

I don’t think I’ve ever told you this, but you do a terrific, thankless job, and this game is one of most appealing things about this board. Thanks, Delores!
