Does #2 include premium channels, or just basic?

Re: SwampCrash Invitational Cup - Round of 16
#8 - to clarify, you mean a #1 overall draft pick? (The first pick in the whole draft).

For 10 do you mean Series winners or individual Race winners?

No doubt. I hear that every day.sancarlos wrote:You'd probably get some offers if you were a bit better looking.DC47 wrote:Man, who do you have to blow to get a good seed around here?
But I figure this seeding thing has to be at least partly based on willingness. I guess being ranked 13th out of 16 seems a pretty good representation of my situation. This makes me look at the guys with the high seeds in a new light. I used to think it just meant you were smart. I guess this a new thing, based on the Supreme Court ruling on marriage.
Re: SwampCrash Invitational Cup - Round of 16
Just to be certain, #9 we're talking about the capital city's name is in the last 10 by alpha, and not the state, right? Like Zzywax City, Alabama would be a correct answer.

Was it the roman numeral one? Because that one made me laugh enough that I would hate to think I missed something funnier.mister d wrote:Haaaaaaa ... and I can't delete. And I over-explain one in the best possible way.

Re: SwampCrash Invitational Cup - Round of 16
I completely worded the Roman numeral question wrongly from what answers I was originally going for so this may be the widest range of answers in SwampCrash history

SLolz
Ryan
chedda
sancarlos
wlulax
Carwash
Herm
Pruitt
travzilla
rush
duff
DC47

I knew this was about former Rams QB Roman Gabriel. But I couldn't recall exactly what number he wore.
Re: SwampCrash Invitational Cup - Round of 16
Can't do the reveal until tomorrow but there is a clarification on question four about news channels not counting as well as sports types. I sent the people who answered news channels a PM/email to give them a chance to change their answers
And I still need answers from:
Jerloma
PDX
bfj

(It's nice to know that random data like uniform numbers from my childhood will remain in my brain until I die.)
Who knows? Maybe, you were kidnapped, tied up, taken away and held for ransom.

Many times, I remember numbers by associating them with the player who wore that uniform number.howard wrote:18DC47 wrote:I knew this was about former Rams QB Roman Gabriel. But I couldn't recall exactly what number he wore.

Of course, still remember phone numbers from pre-cell phone days by player names.

Just got home from helping my uncle vaccinate some cows so I'm going to shower and eat a quick lunch and then the reveal will begin. Still don't have PDX or bfj's answers so they got about 45 minutes to get them in.

I'm not on there. And didn't even look to see if my answer was correct so am kinda nervous.
Hold on, I'm trying to see if Jack London ever gets this fire built or not.

Fuck. I was thinking of Notre Dame too with ML Carr and some douchebag that they've had over the past 80 years in football.
