IWS/MMR Hi/Lo Contest

Buccaneer · 08-06-2003, 02:17 PM

(How about a contest that combines the standard IWS and MMR contests? I’m not sure how it will work but there’s a first time for everything.)

For each of the 6 questions/statements listed in the next post, provide a single correct answer for each of them. These are stated so that each can be answered correctly and easily without searching (except for Shorty perhaps

). In fact, each question will state how many correct answers there are, just to be clear.

Here’s the twist. I will declare two winners – one for highest percentage of common answers (IWS) and one for the lowest percentage of common answers (MMR). You have to decide how to play the game, whether Hi or Lo, or perhaps just letting the chips fall as they may. There will be a direct correlation between Hi and Lo in that if more people try for Lo, the lower the Hi scores will be (and vice-versa).

If you submit a wrong answer, I will give you one chance to correct it. If uncorrected, I will throw out your submission.

You have one week – until August 13 at Noon Mountain Standard Time. Please send the PM to Buccaneer not A-whatever.

Please speak up if any questions.

So, those people who like playing MMR will score low on this IWS event and vice versa, interesting twist.

It is even more interesting than you think. Quite a few entries so far and the results are fascinating.

Hmmm. When I saw a Hi/Lo thread started by Bucc, I figured it was going to be about who had the best mullett. Oh well.
