IWS XIV: The Big, the Bad, and the Stupid
Rules: Answer the questions and send to JW by PM. All answers are allowed. However, scoring is not based on what the "correct" answer is . It is based on how many other participants choose the same answer. So, for example, if I ask what fruit is the greatest, and 17 people say "banana," each person who answered "banana" will get 17 points for that question. If someone says "mango," and they're the only one, they will get 1 point for that question. However, the answer doesn't have to even fit the criteria. If two people answer "I hate George W. Bush" when asked what fruit is the greatest, they will still get two points for that question. Your individual score will be the total of your scores for all eight questions.
1. What is the single worst hellhole on Earth?
2. What is the greatest shooter game ever?
3. Put these in order from fattest to thinnest. William Howard Taft, Newman from "Seinfeld," and Jared from the Subway ads (before he lost all the weight.)
4. What is the coolest gun ever created?
5. Fez once said that all Communists should be thrown out of helicopters. However, since commies like monkspider, Che, and Tassadar are lovable, fill in the blank with a different plural noun. All ________ should be thrown out of helicopters.
6. Ming and MtG in a boxing match. Who wins?
7. Which mod/admin is most likely an 11 year old net rat in disguise?
PM JW Here
Answers must be sent before August 7th at noon EST.

Sent. I hate such questions like Nr. 2 though. I live in Austria, damn it and don't know any of them. And I won't answer "Zylka" instead.
