43 Submissions. All the regulars have participated so far in this round except Alakagom.
I know you guys anxiously wait his answers, so hopefully he gets them in soon.
Round summary coming around 6:00 PM EST
Finally added EST-time to my favorites in firefox Can't wait to see the results
Go for the five, Alakagom
There is a few surprises in store when it comes to the "5" pointers.
Oh no now I have an even worse feeling about my answers...
But no way I end up with 5, then i'll probably quit

I'm with stupid
Season 2, Round 3 Evaluation (johnnyjur)
Question 1: Name a Canadian hockey player (besides Sidney Crosby) whose surname begins with "C".
This question had the most answers of any single question so far this season with a record breaking 24. There was only one answer that stood apart from the rest, which was 9 people saying Cal Clutterbuck. Here are the other answers, and there was even a few rebels. By that I mean one person said Sidney Crosby, one person said Santa Claus, and one person said Wayne Gretzky.
Spoiler x5 - Paul Coffey
x4 - Jeff Carter
x3 - Mike Cammalleri
x2 - Brian Campbell
x2 - Logan Couture
x2 - Matt Caruana
x1 - Deb Covey
x1 - David Cullen
x1 - Shayne Corson
x1 - Ryan Callahan
x1 - Kyle Cumiskey
x1 - Paul Conlin
x1 - Eric Carruthers
x1 - Kyle Calder
x1 - Patrick Carpenter
x1 - Kyle Clifford
x1 - Tim Connolly
x1 - Daniel Cleary
x1 - Zdeno Chara
x1 - Ross Cuthbert
Question 2: Name a continental cycling team.
3 answers were the most popular here. 13 people said Endura racing. 8 People said the team of Christina Watches. 6 people said CCC-Polkowice. The others include:
Spoiler x2 - Leopard-Trek
x2 - MTN-Qhubeka
x1 - Jelly Belly
x1 - Whirpool-Author
x1 - Cofidis
x1 - Node 4-Giordana
x1 - Matrix Powertag
x1 - Bontrager-Livestrong
x1 - An Post-Sean Kelly
x1 - Team Europcar
x1 - RTS Racing Team
x1 - Orbea Continental
x1 - Adria-Mobil
x1 - Carmin-Prio
x1 - Clube DatoRe de Ciclismo
Question 3: Name a car brand.
This question was very widespread. The 3 most popular answers includes Ferrari with 9 answers, Mercedes with 6 answers, & BMW with 6 answers.
Spoiler x4 - Chevrolet
x3 - Ford
x3 - Citroen
x3 - Chrysler
x2 - Nissan
x2 - Skoda
x1 - Toyota
x1 - DeLorean
x1 - Volkswagen
x1 - Smart
x1 - Finch
x1 - Daihatsu
Question 4: Name a color/colour.
There were two popular answers here, and I can't really explain why. There were 2 main colors that were stated here, Red & Blue. Red got 19, and Blue got 10.. Here were the others, some very odd:
Spoiler x4 - Yellow
x4 - Cyan
x1 - Black
x1 - Puce
x1 - Khaki
x1 - Magenta
x1 - Crimson
x1 - Cream
x1 - Caput Martuum
Question 5: Name a city beginning with "C", which is not the capital of its country.
It seems as though people were again thinking of the United States for this one. Just like in round 1 when you had to answer the same question except it began with an "A". Anyways, Chicago, Illinois was the number one answer receiving the moist points you get for the round in a question, 26. Cincinnati, Ohio was second receiving just 3 votes. Also, like last round, there were actual states names in the United States, so people must not have known their geography :
Spoiler x2 - Cambridge
x2 - Canterbury
x1 - Cesky Krumlov
x1 - Cardiff
x1 - Chengdu
x1 - Calais
x1 - Chongqing
x1 - Colorado
x1 - California
x1 - Curitiba
x1 - Cancun
x1 - Casablanca
x1 - Coronel E Soto Cano AB
0 People posted a perfect score which would have been made if one said:
Cal Clutterbuck - 9
Endura Racing -- 13
Ferrari ----------- 9
Red -------------- 19
Chicago ---------- 26 == 76
(Also, we had 3 people this round reach the "perfect" score of 5, making it more un-prestigious as we go.)
Here are the round results:
kumazan | 73 | cunego59 | 69 | Bosskardo | 69 | Iiuuiiggii | 65 | chris01 | 62 | Logghje | 60 | cio93 | 60 | johannes-w | 59 | alexkr00 | 59 | johnnyjur | 58 |
Here is a summary of the round:
Here are the standings of Season 2 so far:
The overall classification looks like this:
That wraps up round 3, JOHNNYJUR, you may now post your round 4 questions.

Very bad round for me. only 1 top answer.
Should have expected the European Brands, but I've always had a Ford. Don't know who Cal Clutterbuck is, expected more for An Post, and blue is the first color that came to mind. Bad for me.
RIP Exxon Duke, David Veilleux, Double Feature, and Monster Energy

I'd like to offer my round-Top 5 to Google and Wikipedia, thank you for Cal Clutterbuck Could have scored some more if I hadn't go with Ford, but Ferrari never came to my mind for some reason
I just hope the 3 "perfect-5ers" are on purpose. Alakagom is, roturn I think is chasing him and who knows about Dropstaaf Btw Alakagom, it might have been a huge coincidence but for a moment I thought in going with Clube DataRo - "ok what about going C, nationalistic and chasing some perfect 5's out there" Second consecutive time we think in the same Cont team but post different ones

Dropstaaf said he was going for a 5-pointer in the PM since he can't win the round.

Round 1: 4th
Round 2: 5th
Round 3: 6th
This is not going the right way At least I'm still on the podium of the season Hesitating between Mercedes and BMW, and eventually going for Chrysler has cost me my 2nd place But I did expect an extremely bad round so I'm happy about it after all |

Actually pretty fun to go for 5 points!
I will be away on holiday for 2 weeks from tomorrow evening, so unfortunately won't be able to participate in the upcoming rounds, except if I find a free wifi spot in Spain!

I can confirm that, though it's probably not been the last time I'll go for 5points. Great fun!
