We're already up to 57 submissions in less than 24 hours.

I'm going to put a cap on this at 100 participants. Get your answers in while you still have time.

 

[Hans Sprungfeld]

Does an answer have to be correct? In the reverse section, if you just pick a random answer with no relation to the question, odds are, you'll be the only one with that answer.

Definite advantage to answering "Kemba Walker" as a former conference opponent or "Thurston Baumgartner" as a Husky of Honor if the answer need not be correct.

I was thinking this myself but didn't want to be the first guy to ask....it must be that the answer has to be correct to count, right?

As someone suggested, it's a "psychology contest," (on The Boneyard of all places), though from further reading it looks like correct answers are required.

And the comments here may have their own Heisenbergian impact, with hints of answers, possible head fakes, etc.

I've looked some things up after the fact to find out if my answers were factually correct, but that's part of the fun.

Dear Cliff Claven:
'Someone who has never been in my kitchen' is not every Jeopardy answer.

 

[methodology]

I made a mistake with one of answers on reverse sheep. Typed wrong name of player i wanted. Player i typed didn't even play on that team.

Hope that doesn't screw me

 

[David 76]

All right! Tied for first place so far!

 

[Dogdeacon]

All right! Tied for first place so far!

Very early indication that the groupthink answers trending old guy. I never even considering Calimari

I call cheats. People definitely googled how to spell coach k

 

[ConnHuskBask]

I call cheats. People definitely googled how to spell coach k

Lol, agreed. I didn't choose Coach K because I didn't remember how to spell it, so I settled with Calipari.

 

[RichZ]

Aaaaand, that was a short run at the top.

 

[Dream Jobbed 2.0]

Great start

 

[navery12]

And just like the past 5 attempts, I forget that people skew towards the older players that I never think of

 

[Huskybass]

Aaaaand, that was a short run at the top.

Well Rich, we are tied with a bunch of other people for 3rd place.

 

[Dogdeacon]

Lol, agreed. I didn't choose Coach K because I didn't remember how to spell it, so I settled with Calipari.

Um, I just wrote 'Coach K '

 

[ConnHuskBask]

Um, I just wrote 'Coach K '

I wasn't sure if that would be accepted! For the record, I'm just kidding too as far as accusations of cheating.

 

[Huskyforlife]

I wasn't sure if that would be accepted! For the record, I'm just kidding too as far as accusations of cheating.

Same

 

[HuskyHawk]

Lol, agreed. I didn't choose Coach K because I didn't remember how to spell it, so I settled with Calipari.

That's exactly what I did. Plus I figured the younger fans would remember the win that was more recent. Guess the old farts like me won out.
