Survivor FOFC CHALLENGE #2

One of the favorite games of the FOFC is called IWS (or I’m with stupid). The rules are simple. I will ask 5 questions. Each of you are to PM me with your answers to those five questions. You will receive a point for each person who has the same answer as you gave (plus one point for your own answer), and then all of your points for each question are multiplied together to get your final score. The team with the highest combined score is the winner and will have immunity. The loser will be heading off to tribal council.

Dolamites, you have one extra player so someone will be sitting out. I have randomly selected Radii to sit this game out.

Note: this is only for Survivor FOFC contestants. No other need apply

1. give an emoticon other than
2. Give an FOFC poll
3. Name someone who played in this year’s Super Bowl
4. Name a hall of Famer who never went to an NFL championship or Super Bowl
5. Name a top football college


Needless to say, no discussion is allowed. Please stay honest.
You have 24 hours to get your answers in.

Won't this event be very subject to collusion?

good point...

maybe you can only get points for answers that match the other team?

I agree. And even though we all can say we won't cheat, if two members from one tribe decide to, it could be enough to seal that teams victory.

I'll PM you anyway, but I hope you change the challenge.

Edit: The others bring up a good point. I like the idea, but it's impossible to police this...

The problem w/ trying to match the other team would be that I can answer question #1 w/ a color or name of a city.

Perhaps matching multiple choice questions vs the other team?

good point.

but multiple choice spoils the fun of IWS.

I was worried about the collusion thing, but I because IWS is so much a part of FOFC I wanted to keep it in. But I like the idea of only getting points for those that match the other teams, so we will go with that plan instead (you will still get one point for your own answer so that we don't have any x0 problems).

For every answer that matches your opponent's you will recieve a point, and they will be multiplied together

Exactly. The teams could colude to put in off the wall answers. Are we just going to trust everyone? Cause I don't trust those damn Dolomites any further than I could throw them...

If they put all off the wall answers, then they will not get any points

Seriously, if I feel that people are cheating by not posting realistic answers then I will take action. As it is I think that everyone here will play fair.

OK, I guess that will work. But what happens if there's a tie? Will there be a runoff round or will both teams go to tribal council?

There will be a runoff round. It will involve just two people and myself.

Coming up with non-controversial challenges is tough.

I have just finished calculating the results. It was quite close, so I am going back and double checking.

Ardent, I lost the internet connection on the computer that has the answers stored on it. I will try to post them when I get it back.
