Quizmaster:


It's the most popular forum game about most popular answers! We're back in time for Christmas 2017 and a Happy New Year 2018.

The Quizmaster account is always run by a normal forum member; it's merely to keep game-related private messages sorted apart from normal private messages.

How to play

* Anybody may play! Freely drop in and out after each round.

* Look near the end of the thread for the most recent round.

* Try to answer each question with the most popular answer given among all players. For example, if the quizmaster asks "Name a pet", what do you think most players would say? Dog? Cat? Capybara? Answer with what you deem most popular.

* Send your answers to the Quizmaster by private forum message.

* As long as the Quizmaster hasn't scored the round, you may change your answers by sending another private message with a new complete set of answers.

* After 5-7 days, the Quizmaster will reveal and score everybody's answers. Until then, please don't discuss your secret answers.
Scoring

For each answer, you get (number of people that gave your answer) / (number of people that gave the most popular answer). Example for "Name a pet" with 14 players:

5 players said "capybara": worth 5/5 points = 1 full point.
5 players said "cat": worth 5/5 points = 1 full point.
3 players said "dog": worth 3/5 points, a fractional value.
1 player said "ant": worth only 1/5 points.

Subclass rule: When all As are Bs, but not all Bs are As, then A and B are entirely separate answers. E.g., "oak" and "tree" are separate answers. It's part of the game to decide how specific you want to be. But synonyms are lumped together as one answer.

Your scores are tallied across all questions for the round. Highest total wins!

Cool Family feud is back. :)

I also hope to see the "Pointless" variant where the least popular answer wins. Those are fun due to the next level of tactical thinking required!
