Crap.

[Butter]

Dugan Fife? I'm impressed with someone.

[neofied]

For starters I should have said Fanta and I should have read the Fab Five question better. Oh well, not too bad for a first shot at it I guess.

[JeeberD]

I will never win...

[Poli]

I didn't finish last! GO me! I had to guess on three or four of those!

[Anrhydeddu]

It seems that my too clever answers would have been more effective if there were more participating. Oh well. I will hold off on starting another one until a more appropriate time when we have gotten over the burn-out.

[QuikSand]

I'm not sure there's a burn-out with the game, but rather it seems that there area fair number of people who will play if they don't have to "work" to submit answers. Taking a few minutes to do some web searches seems to be the defining element in participation. (This is, in part, why I think the IWS games generally attract more participants)

Just food for thought... you're more than welcome to submit whenever and whatever you desire.

I didn't know you had one going... must have been when I was Michigan?

Sorry..

FWIW, I like testing my Google skills on these things. Although with IWS, I can usually guess and score higher. Both are fun to play and see what kinds of answers people have.


Todd

[MIJB#19]

I never google on the MMRs, I almost always do on IWSs.

Anyway, that was quite an accomplishment for me...
Especially the Michigan 5 wild guess was amazing, although every basketball team is bound to have a Jackson...

Are you sure Van Halen never had a debut album?

[Anrhydeddu]

I never google on the MMRs, I almost always do on IWSs.

MIJB, perhaps I should suggest that you reverse that?

Mizzo: I was not clear, I didn't have one going, I was just going to wait until I feel we can have more participation before starting the next one. These things do go in cycles.

[MizzouRah]

Yep, they sure do!

IWS only had 17 entries last time, while not bad, is still lower than I would have liked. I thought I had questions that didn't require any lookup either.

Nah, so far I've had my share of success in both games...

If you really think I should, I'll start googling on Make Mine Rares as well, though, don't start complaning once I win something...
