The interest in this thread closely mirrors the interest in this game.

Don't need to guess, this game still sucks. Why is nothing older than 3 weeks?

I'll try the above three.

WEST VIRGINIA - Which football team has the highest percentage of players who routinely fornicate with a family member.
FLAT OUT - Most sports trivia players _______ despise The Pulse in spite of TomD's best efforts.
TENNIS - ULF once had his picture taken at the Espy's with an unbelievably stunning professional ________ player.

You have this one wrong. It was probably more along the lines of:

"In his picture with a famous ___________ player at the ESPY's, ULF barely came up to their waist."

That way, basketball and football would be good distractors.

I'm pretty sure this was one of the questions too:

OCTOBER 11 - By projecting the decreasing player count into the future, there will be nobody left playing The Pulse by __________.

My guess would be "R.A. Dickey is the first knuckleballer to win 20 games since who?"

BECAME THE FIRST
KNUCKLEBALLER TO WIN 20
GAMES IN A SEASON SINCE:

A: JOE NIEKRO

F: JOE NIEKRO WENT 21-11
FOR THE HOUSTON ASTROS

It's been quite some time, but he is taller than that. Granted, she is very tall...

and tanned. He is not the latter.

Hey TD,
Since we've established that you'll follow through on suggestions for the following week's game, could I suggest 30 questions that are spread out over the last century, none of which are snoozeriffic current events? :mrgreen:

I guess Buzztime figures if a Czech man can live with no pulse then so can this game with no one playing it.

The WEST VIRGINIA question is true because of all the TEXAS recruits. (Sheep not withstanding). :)

Let's not be knocking WVU. After all, they recently discovered an innovative new use for sheep

Wool :lol:

I gave this game a shot last night. I don't mind the game itself, but at the loss of STC and SIQ, the game is terrible. Still no fucking rankings! Are we still not mentioning to Buzztime on Facebook that the game hasn't had rankings yet? Or are we just hoping this thing will die off?

P.S. Dear Buzztime,

You have two premium games a week that are played nationwide, one of them has no rankings. Why fucking bother playing this shit if there are no rankings?

Didn't program it out, answered 1 q, then left due to weather.

No one else was playing when I left.

In checking the numbers looks as though there is still a week by week decline in participation. Does anybody at the Mother Ship care?

Both a Billy Cundiff & Redskins Q and a Washington Q 4 games ago? Cool, unless it was Washington State. :?

And a Dover Nascar Q it looks like. :)

Manny Acta could have been DC too.

Possibly good stuff Tom D, if I knew what the questions were. :mrgreen:

Maybe I'll play one of these weeks.

I went and played again (didn't arrive and get a TV on until the 6th question), but I am kind of surprised no one mentioned these: The rankings I saw were what looked like the previous CD game, and one of the choices for the horse that won something was fLILJOListic..
