Howdy! 
Awk some may know the game and the rules by now but always worth posting them again just in case! Even if it is just copying and pasting
The aim of the game? Try to follow the masses and give the most popular answer! The more people who give the same answer as you... The more points you get! So don't overthink it!
Just say you're "in" and send your answers in PRIVATE!.. That's an important part to remember!
There'll be THREE rounds of ten questions
If you're asked to name a colour, for example, and five people say 'blue' and one says 'red' then those who said 'blue' would get FIVE POINTS and the sole person who said 'red' would get ZERO; you only score points if you follow the masses!
We'll post the leaderboard and a new set of questions as the day goes on! If you wish to join in during rounds two or three that's no problem, just send on all your answers to every round at that time and we will update previous scores when tallying up the latest round!
Good luck!  |

With twenty four players we're officially closing it off to new participants, unfortunately. That's the first time that's had to happen, we're genuinely sorry!
We're scarily close to that "AA" tab on the Excel spreadsheet!
The final leaderboard will be published tomorrow so don't worry if you don't get your answers in by tonight |

Fair point lol
Dirk does pop into the forums unexpectedly now and then and he's a lot more laid back and easy going... wouldn't want anyone to get a wrong idea that I softened up |

Apologies for the delay again, it'll be after midday hopefully that we'll be able to post the final leaderboard! We'll start the final tally at 12pm!
There's still a few that haven't sent answers for the final round along with a handful that missed the second round too! Still time if you're still up for it

"There's always a ffs when you see an obvious answer isn't there
Anyone else say boobs instead of shoes for what comes in twos "
No but OCD wouldn't let me make a word from fabswingers that didn't use all the letters. And there isn't any! I really believed everyone else would feel the same. |

Not boobs but balls.
And it was terribly frustrating that there wasn't another word for fabswingers that used all the letters, so we used the longest possible  |

Those answers crack me up. So I did choose b00bs
I went a bit off course though and said p3nises go up and down instead of what I initially thought which was elevator. Thought it’d be too mundane for you fab lot but just me with my head in the gutter
Then my silly brain thought the game had to have a ball so said rugby lol. And I put SwingerFabs cos my brain insisted it had to use all the letters. Swinger makes way more sense
Definitely won’t be winning the next game but will be joining for the fun of it |

As I came 3rd last I wouldn't stomp on anyones answers 
And adding in the first round probably wouldn't change that |

Leap year and black for German flag where my first instincts but chose to over think it and went with something else; that'll teach me to think
I also had a brain melt on the fabswingers word one, wasn't sure if had to use all the letters or the largest possible word. I ended up with the word that was staring me in the face. |

I overthought the word one too, had myself convinced I was looking for the longest possible word instead of what I thought the most popular answer would be, I went with Fabswingers, it must be a word, sure it has it’s own website…. |

A threesome?…….  , yessssss……..
My first though on the mountains was Macgillycuddy's Reeks, but I hadn’t a clue how to spell it, knew autocorrect wasn’t going to save me, and was to lazy to look it up, so I went with Slieve Bloom……. |

I think that's the first game we've personally done that could have had a different champion with just one different answer!
Also, a special mention to those that chose chess as their board game of choice. You're my kind of people! |
