Scoring

Answer each question with the answer you think everyone else will give. If you don't understand a question, then ask me for clarification.
This isn't a general knowledge quiz. Correct answers are not always the most popular, so simply enter what you think everyone else will enter. You're after the most popular answer, not the most correct.
For each question, your score is the number of people who give the same answer as you. The scores for each question are then multiplied together to make your total and the highest total wins the contest.

Rules

You must enter your correct full name (e.g. Kevin Stone and not K. Stone, or Ivor Bignose, etc). I will disqualify entries where I don't believe the name is real.
Spelling mistakes will NOT be corrected. Therefore be very careful as a mistake will ruin your chances of winning.
No answers will be considered equivalent. RED is different from SCARLET. RECTANGLE is different than PARALLELOGRAM.
Questions marked with a will only allow single word answers, don't bother trying to enter more than one word, it can never win, as no-one else can enter more than one letter.
I reserve the right to change any answer if I think it will make the contest fairer, e.g. I might make an American answer equivalent to a UK one.
All answers will be used for scoring purposes, however, only answers that have at least 10 people entering them will appear in the results, all other answers will simply be marked as unranked.
Only the top 90% people will be listed on the final results, this number will be rounded up to the nearest hundred.
You are only allowed to enter once. If you enter more than once, all but one of your entries will be randomly deleted.
If you're registered and logged in, you can change your answers as many times as you like.

Leagues

Registered users can be part of up to 5 leagues, simply log in, and edit your details to add the league names.
Make sure your friends use the same league name as you do.
Users have to have been registered and logged in when entering the previous contest.
You can join or leave a league at any time.
Anyone can use any league name, so if someone happens to use the same league name as you do, you'll see their results as well. So choose a league name few will think of.
