IWS #105 - 2005 NCAA Final Four edition

SplitPersonality1 · 03-30-2005, 11:05 PM

I’m With Stupid, Version #105 – The 2005 NCAA Final Four Edition

The Rules

The rules are the same as previous FOFC “I’m With Stupid" Contests, as set forth by the game’s beloved founding fathers.

The object of this contest is to answer the questions posted, and to provide the most common answer among those submitted. For each question, your score will be equal to the number of people who submitted that response. Your score for the contest will be the product of your individual question scores. Highest score wins.

No collaborating in any way. No posting your answers to this board, nor sharing them by e-mail or in any other way with other potential contestants.

All determinations of "matches" and anything else requiring judgment fall to that of the sole administrator of this round of the game, me. You can reduce the need for doubt and judgment by properly spelling your submissions, being clear, and that sort of thing. My decisions are final and inarguable.

Any references that are unclear to you, due to language or geography, should be understood to be authored from the perspective of an English-speaking American. However...

Your answers do not necessarily have to be correct in order to score points. If I ask "name a color of the rainbow," and you and four other people responded "black" - you each get five points, period, even if it is not technically a correct answer to the question.

PM your answers to me, SplitP1. Deadline is Sunday, April 3rd – I will probably do the compiling sometime Sunday evening. As usual, if I have it when I gather them up, you’re in.

Shouldn't this immediately qualify him as the winner and we move on to IWS #106?

I edited my signature appropriately, I doubt I can score anything better than a plain "1" in this one as I lacked google search help when I submitted my entry...

SplitPersonality1 · 04-03-2005, 04:33 PM

I will be compiling the results this evening. Official deadline will be 9pm Central.

I have approximately 30 entrys so far.
