ASOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!

Have you gone to the wedding yet?

 

Bad question. Worse answer. I officially protest. Please see excellent (and correct) arguments being made by Everton and Jay. Failure to resolve this issue reasonably will result in my displeasure and be marked as a DOOM on BB's record.

I await your appropriate response.

That is all.

 

if she has gone, then you and JR can just answer 5 each. ASO will thusly join Espy as being already nominated!!

-BB

 

I fear we may be DOOMed, if Dani has really left now for the wedding of the week.

We'll have to at least try and get our seven correct, Chris. [face_determined]


-JR

 

re: nominating. Is everyone nominating this week, then?

 

maybe.

-BB

 

I demand a more precise answer to my question.

That's right, demand.

 

you can have polls for the forum instead.

waiting on answers from:

Darth_Guy
Everton
OBIWAN-JR

you have approximately 4 hours to get your questions in. ASO is excluded from E and JR's team so you must answer 5 questions each.

-BB

 

Actually, you posted the second set of questions at 8.50pm UK time, thus we have until that same time today to sumbit our answers.

 

I think pwnage just happened.

 

To Everton you listen, B.


-JR

 

Gaah! Can I try to answer Guy's questions?

 

It is now 5.25pm UK time. I would suggest that when it reaches 6.50pm UK time, Sonia, that you make an EXECUTIVE DECISION.

The sort that Kurt Russell and Steven Seagal would admire.


-JR

 

>.<

 

No news of Guy yet?

 

i had a good answer lined up to the last exchange with Mr E however there was a storm and our internet router at work committed suicide. thus i had to wait until now to post. tragedy.

all teams answered correctly, except for FREAK HUNTERS. unfortunately Darth_Guy did not provid

 

26? That can't be right epic. I took an anatomy class in college!
There are 33 vertebrae in the back bone, 5 of them are fused to form the sacrum, and 2 more fused to form the coccyx. Try to correct me on that.

Anyways, that wouldn't change the final result

 

You can fuse my coccyx.

 

I will fuse you alright.

 

I'm confused.
