Arrow IWS #55
Sorry to co-champ EagleEye19 if I'm stepping on his toes, it's unclear whether he is close to posting an IWS at this time. I decided to just go ahead and do it, and I hope he won't mind.

If you're new to this, read the rules below. Otherwise, jump straight to the questions, and get your answers in by Thursday evening.

Questions

1. Name the worst NFL head coach from 1990 to present.

2. Name the best diet soda.

3. Name the NFL team with the ugliest uniforms.

4. Name a flavor of oatmeal.

5. Name a punk rock band that released an album in the 1975-1985 era.

6. Name one nickname given to a famous NFL playoff game.

The Rules

The rules are the same as all FOFC "I’m With Stupid" Contests.

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 puzzle, i.e. the person posting the questions unless otherwise noted. You can reduce the need for doubt and judgment by properly spelling your submissions, being clear, and that sort of thing.

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 get five points, period, even if it is not technically a correct answer to the question.

Submit your answers by Private Message to cthomer5000 before Thursday, 1/8/04 7:00pm EST.

As far as the questions are concerned, how do you guys determine them? Are they just 6 questions you want to ask or are they conforming to a standard?

I've only entered this contest recently. I honestly tried to ask questions that I thought would result in a decent amoutn of answers (maybe up to 7 or 8), but where a clear front-runner would likely emerge within the answers.


I think it's a fine line between making a question too tough or too easy.
