So this evening is the deadline?

Want to give us any hints about how similar the answers have been, mith?

mith · « **Reply #26 on:** December 13, 2012, 02:21:33 pm »

Yeah, it may be late tonight or early tomorrow before I am able to get results up, so if someone gets a submission in before I'm ready that's fine. Easy enough to add someone to the spreadsheet.

No hints.

Voltgloss's quote that is now in Jotheonah's signature is basically my favorite thing ever. I'm still laughing.

Meaning you have to flip a switch that lets you see them? Or you have to put one in your profile?

Aaaand, I am honored, joth.

I meant the former, but now I'll just have to do the latter.

I hope you take this the right way Volt: Not only did it make me laugh (and then laugh again when Joth PM'ed me the applicable context), but it made me want more of your brain, and your prose.

Cue violins.

@Volt - it was just a hilarious bit of absurdity

eHalcyon · « **Reply #39 on:** December 13, 2012, 08:04:58 pm »

woohoo, i won anatomy

Kuildeous · « **Reply #43 on:** December 14, 2012, 12:12:55 am »

I suck at being a sheep.

eHalcyon · « **Reply #44 on:** December 14, 2012, 12:17:23 am »

I did not hedge my bets with Adam and did decent.

I did horrible with Ancient.

I was second for Answer.

Tied for second on Astronomy.

Did pretty bad for Athlete, but most people did (and wow Galz failed that one).

Tough game. I wonder how my non-answers would have fared.

Galzria · « **Reply #45 on:** December 14, 2012, 12:29:29 am »

Since points are out, here are my personal responses. I failed big in some categories, and did pretty awful in the rest:

2. Adam: Eve, Levine, Sandler, West, Lambert

3. Adjective: Verb, Noun, Description, Grammer, Modifier

4. Ambassador: Huntsman, Estate Tennis, Diplomat, Emissary, Envoy

5. Anatomy: To Cut Up, Human Body, Doctor, Surgeon, Disect

6. Ancient: History, Artifact, Egypt, Civilizations, Chronos

7. Answer: 42, Question, Respond, Solution, Correct Reply

8. Anti: Against, Opposed, Not, Negative, Virus

9. Astronomy: Stars, Galaxy, Space, Universe, Study of Celestial Objects

10. Athlete: Competitor, Strength, Spirit, Perseverance, Determination

Although I just realized that my phone auto-corrected Dominion to Huntsman (lolhow?) For Ambassador. Oh well.

It's probably too used to writing the name for work reports. I've accidentally sent in minor things with various f.DS names in them because you guys are all saved in my phones dictionary of recognized words. Occasionally I miss an auto-correct. (Which is, incidentally, why I rarely do work related articles from my phone). Luckily our editors usually email me back with "......".

I'm the only one to say Adam-12?

Get off my lawn.
