IW's IWS, IWS XXII: Aaaaannnsswaaaaarrrss!!11!! Enter the AD-FREE zone

Well I said before Friday, so it's now or never...

The rules: If you wish to enter, PM me with your answers to the nine eight questions below before 6pm GMT Tuesday 21st October. Scoring will be as detailed below:

quote:

All answers are allowed. However, scoring is not based on what the "correct" answer is . It is based on how many other participants choose the same answer. So, for example, if I ask what fruit is the greatest, and 17 people say "banana," each person who answered "banana" will get 17 points for that question. If someone says "mango," and they're the only one, they will get 1 point for that question.

However, the answer doesn't have to even fit the criteria. If two people answer "I hate George W. Bush" when asked what fruit is the greatest, they will still get two points for that question.

Your individual score will be the total of your scores for all 8 questions.



The questions, this time, are in fact mostly answers. You have to submit the question that you think most people would put down as a question to which the answer would be the reply to. So here goes.



'Answers' you have to question:
1. William Shatner!
2. 22
3. Zylka
4. llama, guanaco, alpaca and vicuna

'Questions' you have to answer:
5. Complete the phrase "We put the fun back in ______."
6. Which is the odd one out of these four: blue, Bananarama, the Taliban, carrots.
7. Why did you choose the answer that you did for question seven?
8. Quellich:


Good luck, etc.

Well, I couldn't decide if you post was in jest or not, but either way, it either missed the point of the game (PMing your answers, so that others do not see them) or it was a bad joke. Both would deserve an eye-rolling smilie IMHO

Got spare money?

Go me. What a messy round this was. You were begging it with questions, er, answers like that, though. I'll try to make the next one a bit more, shall I say, appealing. IWS 23 on your local OTF by Friday, stay tuned. I still haven't cleaned up the pm mess from the last time I held one of these.
