Since the sports team q is phrased "has a nickname", I'll go with a current team.

Easy to give popular answers, not so easy to give Reverse Sheep answers.

I'm also considering guessing on a few of them rather than going with what I know to be correct and popular. For instance, the last one....*
Shhhh.....Don't say another word, or I will cut you.

RE: #7 I'm still torn whether to pick a nation that's official government is anti-US, or whether a significant number of militant groups are anti-US.

Done and done. Though I don't think giving people subtle ideas really works. I have tried it in almost all of these games thus far and have only won once (by virture of the winner being disqualified).

You're not trying hard enough.


Wait a minute... look. You dress however you like -- Push-Up Bra -- I just thought...
No, casual's fine. In fact, I know exactly what I'm going to wear!

So, Bus, did you get a good number of participants? Can I sit next to my monitor between the hours of 8AM and 8PM tomorrow in anticipation?

I wouldn't if I were you. The Bus will say yes, then give us two answers, go on hiatus and then finish up sometime in July.

To be fair to the Bus, he will probably be watching the Nintendo and Sony press conferences if he has the chance. I know I would.

Wait! Hold on! Looks like there might be a problem with some people's answers. Horacio Elizondo confirms this!

Yes, indeed.

Please send in your answers via PM. Place only one answer per line, without numbers or the question itself. New! Those who do not do this will be penalized 5 points right off the bat.
It looks like right off the bat, there will be penalties given to the following players:

Nick Danger, with the most egregious foul: Writing the questions AND the answers in addition to sending the PM split into two different messages.

Red Dog, for writing the question ahead of the answers, which were in all capitals (AKA CAPS LOCK IS LIKE CRUISE CONTROL FOR BEING COOL)

arminius who numbered the answers.

These players caused a slight delay of game and therefore are penalized 5 points.

Question 1: Name one of the "Inalienable Rights" of man.



"Life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness " is one of the most famous phrases in the United States Declaration of Independence. These three aspects are listed among the "inalienable rights" of man.
Let's hope you answered one of these three.
