dw chose nodnarb's guess.
nodnarb and Apollo chose dw's guess.
And Sleepy was the only one to choose the correct answer!

throwing the question out wouldn't be fair. you said the answer had to match what it says on your cards even if their wrong!

He won't be throwing the question out. I talked to him and I told him I was wrong.

I perceive a difference between:

My card having the right answer, and getting similiar answers but are not exact

to

My card being TOTALLY wrong (that's like saying the Colonies were French, not British).

I didn't really think my answer was wrong because I figure the Balderdash people do their homework before printing their cards but a mistake could always slip through so I wanted to give nodnarb a chance to say why he thought it was wrong.

<sigh> It's a good thing you people are keeping me on my toes. I think I'll go for a less ambiguous game next

I understand. it's cool.
