So happy i ruined Jandals 5-pointer! (the fact i went for legit answers and scored 6 we'lll ignore please )
Can't believe after Round 1 no-one else wanted Bacon Salad, or that more of you havn't had an Ex-issue on a date

Dang, I was gonna go with red meat, but chickened out cause it felt like I was calling myself out a bit and I'm insecure.

Pretty easy round, I think. Not feeling confident about the final round, though, PM sent.

Not perfect but pretty decent round again.
Hope next one can still best nemolito. Though I don't expect big gaps with the possible answers. |

To be fair (especially given how obvious a shout the answer we both went for was) I was going for jokes more than 5-pointer (the fact that you thought otherwise shows the quality of the jokes I guess ) but enjoy it if you want

PM sent! Interesting questions, had so many answers in mind but wrote the first that came into mind (and the animal in number 4 is one pet that I genuinely find weird. ) |

PM sent. very unsure about my answers, I found this quite tricky, and again Americans and Europeans can really have different points of view.

Horrific round by me there, and especially frustrating since I had two of the top answers written at first (brussel sprouts and caviar) and then changed them to one point answers. Hopefully, this next one is better, but all chances of a solid overall result are gone now. PM coming shortly.

The final round is in, could Nemolito hold off roturn and company to bring home the win?
1. Name an animal people hunt.
The deer, which is the most commonly hunted animal in North America, and possibly the world in general, wins this round with 8 responses out of 14. The only other response that got you more than a point was Lion with 2.
Spoiler 8 - Deer
2 - Lion
1 - Hare
1 - Duck
1 - Whale
1 - Human
2. Name an animal that is often poached illegally.
Pangolins are the most illegally poached animal in the world and not a single person put that for an answer. Instead, Elephant & Rhino dominated with 8 and 5 points respectively. That only left 1 point up for grabs.
Spoiler 8 - Elephant
5 - Rhino
1 - Human
3. Name a country that is known for hunting. (a.k.a. Good hunting destination)
A myriad of answers here with only two standing out from the rest. South Africa takes home the golf with 5 points while the United States was just behind with 4 points.
Spoiler 5 - South Africa
4 - United States
2 - Canada
2 - Tanzania
1 - Kenya
4. Name an animal people keep as a pet that others find weird.
Another 8-pointer here if you put down Snakes for your answer. There were a few other options to get yourself 2 points also.
Spoiler 8 - Snakes
2 - Lizards
2 - jandal7/Humans
1 - Ferrets
1 - Scorpions
5. Name an animal besides snakes & spiders that people are often afraid of.
A mixture of answers for the final question with nothing really standing out from the rest. Ultimately, it was Sharks topping the charts with 4.
Spoiler 4 - Sharks
3 - Bees/Wasps
2 - Mice/Rats
2 - Dogs
2 - Women/Humans
1 - Wolves
Results
Nemolito chokes away the win late! roturn makes his return to IWS and brings home the win! Marcovdw brings home second place in his return to competition after being a host. roturn now has the right to host a game either now or later (just say what your plans are.) Otherwise, Marco is up again.
Thanks for the compliments for the questions I came up with, I tried to make them unpredictable!

A nice round to end this edition, I'm happy with that. Could have been Top 5 if not for that terrible round 4, but that doesn't matter much. Congrats roturn and thank you jseadog, indeed really interesting and diverse questions!

Thanks for hosting the game! Was a nice couple rounds and an unexpected win in the end even. In especially as I didn't nail the top answers here.
I can host the next round starting at done point the next couple days.
Need to think about topics. |

Didn't think of snakes or deer. Well, no one can take that perfect round 1 away from me. Nice questions overall, thanks, jseadog!

After an abysmal fourth round I didn't expect to get second. Congratulations roturn!
Thanks jseadog for taking on the hosting dueties!

Honoured, disturbed, scared and maybe a little bit flattered that Nemo threw away his win to make a joke about keeping me as a pet
Sorry I didn't get my answers in. For the record the only not entirely terrible joke I could remember coming up with for it was something to do with sports players being poached illegally
