It's a joy and a privilege to be back hosting this now-sacred FOFC tradition…

I’ll support the recent tradition of offering the six questions right up front, and then dispense with the rules and pleasantries afterwards. Seems to be working nicely.

Questions

1. Name a color

2. Name a “good luck” superstition

3. Name a “bad luck” superstition

4. Name a color, other than what you named for #1

5. Name a non-integer number, greater than one

6. Name a three-letter acronym that nearly everyone recognizes


Now, on with the puffery and minutae…

The Rules

The rules are the same as all FOFC "I’m With Stupid" Contests, as set forth by the game’s 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 game, QuikSand. 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.

Please submit entries via PM no later than 6:00 pm QST on Tuesday, Feb. 24.

Thanks, have fun, and good luck.

Tough one. I wasn't sure what to put in the superstition questions as I'm probably the least superstitious person I know. LOL

My intent to tabulate this last evening has slipped until this morning... and from the looks of my desk today, will slip until at least this afternoon. We have over 40 entries, but I'll include everything I get before I actually start tallying.

Hopefully by tonight...

Because it was the style at the time?

Sorry for the continuing delay... got a card game last night, and was unavailable to get this wrapped up. Hopefully today. *sigh*

Freakazoid!: 'Cause it's funny!
Lobe: NO IT ISN'T! IT'S STUPID! It's about as stupid as that "Handman" episode!

Brought to you by the awesome voice stylings of David Warner (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0001831/) who plays awesome bad guys like Ra's Al Ghul in Batman, the Archmage in Gargoyles, The Lobe in Freakazoid, Alpha in MiB: The Series (his best role!), and Dr Landon on Spider-Man.

I mean... bump for that idiot who would rather spend all day arguing stupid grammar things (oh, and if you need the spreadsheet, PM me with an email address). ;)
