bump


btw...why does this have over a week entry period?

I usually end these on Tuesday, but will not be able to start scoring tomorrow so let the entry period go an extra day.

Still time to join in - and still an opportunity to notch many singletons.

Bump to get this back on the first page - get those entries in!!

Thanks - you beat me to it.

Pre-weekend bump - and still plenty of answers waiting to be called upon for the first time.

More specifically, I assume current teams AND nicknames? Since by one definition of current teams, the Whalers example could still technically work for NHL, since they still exist, they're just the Hurricanes. Current teams and nicknames. I tried to keep this simple, but appear to have failed miser...

While I've already submitted my responses (and didn't choose this bonus option), it might help some other people to ask:

Is this only CURRENT MLB/NFL teams, or can they be from any era? mennoknight's usage of the Whalers brought this up for me.

Current teams only.

Just less than a full week left to enter and unused answers remain for all questions.

For the Scattegories bonus....am I supposed to name as many teams starting with the same letter, or just 12 different starting letters? i.e. if you had asked for NHL teams, would I do: Blackhawks, Blues, Blue Jackets, Brontosaurus or would I do Avalanche, Blues, Flames, Whalers, Jets, etc Up to 12 ...

How is Q12 (Bonus #1) being scored? -1 for each correct A-F and an additional -1 if G is correct?

Nothing for A-F, while those words in the proper order at G will reveal the "prize".

I went back and added the phrase "in the 'Classic' American version" to number 6.

This TD is called "Game Time" and the question titles are games you might play with family and/or friends. Rules/Notes 1) Lowest point total wins; your score for each question is equal to the total number of players submitting that same answer 2) You may use one drop and take zero points for that qu...

12. BONUS #1: Choose one of the two options - each with a maximum bonus of -10. A. A different route home took us through Missouri - where we elected to continue towards home and not visit with other friends and/or family. An earlier "detour" to South Carolina would have given us the same option, bu...

9. Once through Virginia, our next stop was northeast Tennessee and the city of Elizabethton to visit more relatives. Name one of these Elizabeths. [Letter preferred] A. Actress: Effie Trinket (The Hunger Games) B. Actress: Jessie Spano (Saved by the Bell) C. 19th century suffragist and women's righ...

6. More than half of our trip was spent in Maryland - visiting with friends and then staying with family on the Delmarva peninsula. A day trip to the beach was also on the agenda. Besides the Delmarva trio, name a state that borders the Atlantic Ocean. The two southernmost states top this list… Flor...

3. Next up was Ohio and a stop in Cincinnati for a baseball game so my son could add another stadium to the list of those he has visited. Name the team that plays its home games in one of the stadiums/arenas (first 8 are MLB, all 10 are on his visited list) that includes the feature described in the...

1. After about an hour and a half in the car, we left Iowa and entered Illinois. This happened at the Quad Cities, while the last exit we passed in the Land of Lincoln was for Danville - which is the name of the city in "the Tri-state area" on Phineas & Ferb. Answer one of these quad- or tri-related...

Last bump - deadline is tomorrow at 1 PM Central time and reveal should begin later in the afternoon.

Pre-weekend bump - still three days to enter and many answers waiting to be chosen.
