IWS XXV too stupid to know I won
Well folks sorry about the delay but I had a sick little son ( but he's fine now) so I hardly was online at all- So with no further delay. . . . .
The rules are: everyone submits an answer to each question. You receive a number of point for each question equal to the number of people who gave the answer you did (so if you were the only person to give a certain answer, you would get one point). The person with the most points wins.
PM me your answers
1. Name the first apolytoner, other than a moderator that pops into your head.
2. What body part or feature do you notice first on a person that you find attractive?
3. Name an actress that you really hate to watch.
4. name the country you believe will win the next World Cup ( soccer/ football )
5. Name your favorite character from Star Trek TNG
6. Name an European country you would like to visit .
7. Who was Horatio Hornblower ?
8. Pick a number from one to ten.
9 What time do you usually go to bed?
Remember you are picking the answer that you believe will be most popular. Please PM me with your answers. This will remain open until 6pm EST on Friday Nov21-- I will come online shortly after that to tabulate the answers and inform everyone of the winners. I will check in at least once a day to check PMs and list the responses received

The results
Note that the winner got something other then the highest score on only 3 questions and in each case found the answer that scored only one point less. The runner up and 3rd place finisher both blew up on question 8 by choosing "42" and "no " respectively while 6 apolytoners knew that " seven" is the number most picked between one and 10. There also must be an insider practice of picking zylka when asked to name an apolytoner as missing that 9 pointer put a few people out of contention
the standings
Boshko 47
Uncle sparky 42
Comrade tass 41.5
immortal wombat 38
Wernazuma III 38
St. leo 37
Tuberski 37
Straybow 33
self biased 26
kassiopeia 25
and in the cellar in a three way tie
Datajack Franit
skywalker
space05us ALL with 21
Oh and the answers with scoring
1. Zylka 9 points
any other answer 1 point
2. Breasts/boobs 6
Eyes 4
face 2
smile 1
3 J LO 3
Julia Roberts 2
Everyone else 1
4. Brazil 8
All others 1
5 Data 4
Worf 3
Picard 3
All others 1
6. Finland 4
Germany 3
Spain 2
all others 1
7. A fictional sail/seacaptain 7
a musician 2
all others 1
Best answer goes to comrade tassadar who obviously looked it up and earns a bonus half point
Huddled against the biting wind of a January gale, a thin young man sits miserably in the stern of a small boat battling its way across the churning waters of Spithead Bay. It is 1793, and Horatio Hornblower is reporting to duty aboard the battleship Justinian... The epic saga of the legendary sea-faring hero comes to life in these epic films based on C.S. Forester’s classic novels. Set against the bloody backdrop of the Napoleonic wars, HORNBLOWER charts a course for high adventure, following the raw recruit as he battles the French, evades capture, and rises through the ranks of the King’s Navy. With a powerful performance by Ioan Gruffud (Titanic) in the title role and produced by the Emmy®-winning team behind JANE AUSTEN’S EMMA, HORNBLOWER brings C.S. Forester’s classic tales to life in all their swashbuckling glory.
8 seven -- 6 points
All others 1 point
9. midnight 3
bedtime 2
10 o'clock 2
never/ don't sleep 2
all else 1
So the winner is Boshko--

Twenty-five? Looking at the scores, I ought to have at least thirty points. Not that I'd win even if you recounted them.

And for number 6 how could it be anything but:
Finland, Finland, Finland.
The country where I want to be,
Pony trekking or camping,
Or just watching TV.
Finland, Finland, Finland,
It's the country for me.
You're so near to Russia,
So far from Japan.
Quite a long way from Cairo,
Lots of miles from Vietnam.
Finland, Finland, Finland.
The country where I want to be,
Eating breakfast or dinner,
Or snack lunch in the hall.
Finland, Finland, Finland,
Finland has it all.
You're so sadly neglected,
And often ignored,
A poor second to Belgium,
When going abroad.
Finland, Finland, Finland.
The country where I quite want to be,
Your mountains so lofty,
Your treetops so tall.
Finland, Finland, Finland,
Finland has it all.
Finland, Finland, Finland.
The country where I quite want to be,
Your mountains so lofty,
Your treetops so tall.
Finland, Finland, Finland,
Finland has it all.
Finland has it all...
