10 people proved they aren't tired of Family Feud yet. And, thanks everyone for asking, the Quizmaster (Clam)
did not bail this time!
1. Are you tired of Family Feud yet?
No (1) - everyone
Selection bias much?
2. Name a major sporting event that occurs at least once every four years.
Football/Soccer/FIFA World Cup (1) - Clam, NaOH, Simon, Akseli, Nepster, geoo
Olympics (1/2) - Gronkling, ccexplore, RubiX
soccer [not further specified] (1/6) - möbius
"Soccer" doesn't score because there are other regular soccer events besides the World Cup.
3. Name a fruit often found on a buffet or salad bar.
Apple (1) - Akseli, Nepster, geoo
Orange (2/3) - Gronkling, RubiX
Banana (1/3) - Clam
Melon (1/3) - NaOH
Watermelon (1/3) - möbius
Cantaloupe [aka. rockmelon (I actually had to look this up)] (1/3) - ccexplore
Paprika (1/3) - Simon
Not all melons are created equal (or equally specific)! New Zealand's statistically most popular fruit (2 per person per week) apparently isn't so popular elsewhere?
4. Name a shape with four sides that isn't always a rectangle.
Parallelogram (1) - Clam, möbius, ccexplore, Akseli, RubiX
Rhombus (2/5) - NaOH, Gronkling
Quadrilateral (2/5) - Nepster, geoo
Trapezoid (1/5) - Simon
This was a tough one with the specificity rule. The preference seems to be for parallel sides, but not necessarily of equal length.
5. Name something you should never leave alone.
Money/wallet (1) - Simon, Akseli, RubiX
Baby (1) - NaOH, möbius, ccexplore
Children/kids (2/3) - Clam, ccexplore
Lemming (2/3) - Gronkling, Nepster
Those lemmings will be just fine if you pen them in, they will merely walk back and forth
6. Name something that would ruin a party.
Police (1) - Clam, ccexplore, Akseli, RubiX
Argument (1/4) - NaOH
Karaoke (1/4) - möbius
Parents (1/4) - Simon
Blood (1/4) - Gronkling
Vomiting (1/4) - Nepster
Party pooper (1/4) - geoo [perhaps in reference to Clam and ccexplore not playing Mafia thus resulting in a brief game?]
Nothing poops a party like a visit from the cops!
7. Which round of Family Feud 14 is the hardest so far?
3 (1) - Clam, NaOH, ccexplore, Akseli, geoo
2 (2/5) - Gronkling, Nepster
4 (1/5) - RubiX
6 (1/5) - Simon
dinosaur ["I don't care to get this one right"] (1/5) - möbius
Unfortunately the integrity of this question may have been compromised by discussion on IRC. But IRC regulars will already be aware that round 3 was so hard that the quizmaster himself "bailed" and didn't enter
8. Choose an integer from 0 to 10.
- If an odd number of players choose your number, you score (x/10) points.
- If an even number of players choose your number, you score (1 - x/10) points.
(where 'x' is the number you picked)
10 (1) - ccexplore, Nepster, geoo
9 (0.9) - RubiX
7 (0.7) - NaOH
5 (0.5) - möbius
2 (0.2) - Simon
0 (0) - Clam, Gronkling, Akseli
Risky plays were rewarded and punished in equal measure

Clampoints (entertainment value)
- Gronkling for his
creatively formatted answer text. muchanswers. sofeud. wow.
- Nepster for suggesting clams as a salad bar fruit (fruits de mer, perhaps).
- möbius for not being bothered by the difficulty of the questions.
*yawn* Well that was tiring, I don't feel like playing another round for a while! (Only kidding! If anyone wants to host now, go right ahead and ask for the password!)
