IWS #186: Obviously Not
The theme for this round of IWS is Obviously Not. It features questions where there is one obvious answer....that you cannot use.
*** The Rules The rules are the same as previous FOFC Im With Stupid" Contests, as set forth by the games widely revered and most truly 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. Yes, that word "product" here in the States means that they will be multiplied together, not added. Highest score wins. Collaboration of any kind is strictly forbidden. No posting your answers to this board, nor sharing them by e-mail or in any other way with other potential contestants. Just don't be an asshat, and this should end well. All determinations of "matches" and anything else requiring judgment fall to that of the sole administrator of this round of the game. 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 utterly inarguable, no exceptions. 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 "What kind of cake do you like best?" and you answer "chocolate cake" along with 4 other equally misguided people, you each regrettably will be awarded 5 points... even though the correct answer is "The Cake Is A Lie." ******************************************************* The Hall of Heroes Abe Sargent - IWS#49, IWS #149 Ahbrady - IWS#15, IWS#41, IWS#85, IWS#100 Airhog - IWS#1 Albionmoonlight - IWS#30, IWS#50, IWS#101, IWS#127, IWS#146 Archer219 - IWS#18, IWS#100 Arctus IWS#135 Ardent Enthusiast - IWS#6 Atatange1 - IWS#79 Barkeep49 - IWS#62, IWS#100, IWS#117 bbor - IWS#23, IWS#26 Bearcat729 - IWS#82, IWS#93 bhlloy - IWS#179 BishopMVP - IWS#36 bitrock88 - IWS#185 Blade - IWS#13 BrianD - IWS#106 Bryce - IWS#40, IWS#53 Buccaneer - IWS#47 Butter_of_69 - IWS#128, IWS#144, IWS#158, IWS#176 Bsak16 - IWS#6, IWS#9, IWS#17 cartman - IWS#48, IWS#100 Celeval - IWSE146 Chief Rum - IWS#45, IWS#56, IWS#95 Claphamsa- IWS #184 CMP - IWS#171 Coffee Warlord - IWS#176 ColtCrazy - IWS#178 Cornhuskerly - IWS#46 Crim - IWS#57 Cringer - IWS#155, IWS#158 Cthomer5000 - IWS#54, IWS#75 CU Tiger - IWS#152, IWS#179 Cuervo72 - IWS#27, IWS#38 DanGarion IWS#100, IWS#122, IWS#178 Danny - IWS#54 Dodgerchick #177 Desert Dweller - IWS#6 Desnudo - IWS#88, IWS #120, IWS #137 Digamma - IWS#14, IWS#92, IWS #185 DukeRulesMAB - IWS#76 Dutch - IWS#90 EagleFan - IWS#41 Farrah Whitworth-Rahn- IWS#126 Frozenrope - IWS#86 George W Bush- IWS#80, IWS#84 Glengoyne - IWS#71 gold101 - IWS#63 GoSeahawks - IWS#64 IWS#131 gstelmack - IWS#116 Hammer755 - IWS#38 HeavyReign - IWS#23 Henry296 - IWS#12 Honolulu_Blue - IWS #129, IWS #144 Hoopsguy - IWS#170, IWS#174, IWS#181 HornedFrogPurple - IWS#10 jbergey22 - IWS#172 JeeberD - IWS#44, IWS#52, IWS#61, IWS#87, IWS#91, IWS#110, IWS#138, IWS #141 Jesse Ewiak IWS#100 Joe Canadian - IWS#29 John Lynch - IWS#10 Karlifornia - IWS#81, IWS#97, IWS#99, IWS#124, IWS#134, IWS#158, IWS#161, IWS#172 kingfc22- IWS#75, IWS#123, IWS#140, IWS#151 kurtism - IWS#79 KWhit - IWS#142, IWS#147, IWS#150, IWS#164 Lathum IWS#182 lighhousekeeper - IWS#125 lurker - IWS#158 Logan IWS#100 Maple Leafs - IWS#34, IWS#84, IWS#94, IWS#113, IWS#118, IWS#139, IWS#168 Marmel - IWS#8 Masked - IWS#22, IWS#30, IWS#31, IWS#33, IWS#100 MattJones4Heisman - IWS#157 mauboy1 - IWS#77 MIJB#19 - IWS#59, IWS#69, IWS#117 Msf518 - IWS#11, IWS#15, IWS#35, IWS#39, IWS#100 Neuqua - IWS#19 NoMyths - IWS#46 Noop - IWS#46 Nothingman - IWS#6, IWS#45 ntndeacon - IWS#81 Oliegirl - IWS#72, IWS#81 PackerFanatic - IWS#130 Panerd - IWS#3, IWS#84, IWS#89, IWS#107, IWS#120, IWS#133 PineTar - IWS#108 Pjstp20 - IWS#42 Primelord - IWS#11 PurdueBrad - IWS#173 Pyser - IWS#85, IWS#163, IWS#180 QuikSand - IWS#9, IWS#16, IWS#18, IWS#24, IWS#32, IWS#58, IWS#66, IWS#70, IWS#73, IWS#78, IWS#83, IWS#93, IWS#100, IWS#103, IWS#111, IWS#132, IWS#156, IWS#165, IWS #169, IWS#179 Qwikshot - IWS#5 Radii IWS#100, IWS#106 Raiders Army - IWS #154, IWS#179 Ramzavail - IWS#53 Raven Hawk - IWS#68 IWS#96 RendeR - IWS#6 RGunner - IWS#121 rkmsuf - IWS#145 RonnieDobbs - IWS#37 RPI-Fan - IWS#9, IWS#182 sabotai - IWS#143 Samdari - IWS#21 ScottVib - IWS#9 Solecismic - IWS#83 spleen1015 - IWS#98 SplitPersonality1 - IWS#4, IWS#104 Sterlingice - IWS#28, IWS#31, IWS#35, IWS#51, IWS#183 stevebollea - IWS #169 stevew- IWS#159, IWS#164 Subby - IWS#107, IWS#110, IWS#112 Sublime 2 - IWS#25, IWS#134, IWS#148, IWS#161, IWS#179 Suicane75 - IWS#109 Swaggs - IWS#2, IWS#35 Tarcone - IWS#162 Tasan - IWS#65 TazFTW - IWS#153 ThunderingHERD - IWS#114, IWS#119, IWS#122 Timmae - IWS #115 Toddzilla - IWS #167 Tredwel - IWS#6, IWS#9, IWS#20, IWS#43, IWS#67, IWS#84 TRO - IWS#7, IWS#9, IWS#12, IWS#85, IWS#102, IWS#109 tucker342 - IWS#60 tyketime - IWS#175, IWS#178 Vince - IWS#37, IWS#46, IWS#62 wademoore - IWS #166 Wbatl1 IWS#105, IWS #136 Whar - IWS#75 Wheels - IWS#55 WSUCougar IWS#105 ******************************************************* The Questions.... 1.

+1 ... I don't even play the game but thought this was a pretty darned good spin.

The "not including X" is a great formula for IWS splitter questions
