damn, I had bass drum typed in and decided to change it... was really tempted to name Kurt Cobain too, but the demographics on this forum keep making me doubt some answers. |

Geography
1. Name a sea. ( NOT ocean).
2. Name a country below the equator line (Southern Hemisphere).
3. Name a US state.
4. Name an international fast food chain (Excluding McDonald's).
5. Name a country with at least 5 other countries bordering it.
Deadline is Monday 8:59pm AEST time. (12.59 CET time).
All answers to me as per usual.
For question 2; does it have to be a country that is entirely in the Southern Hemisphere, or is it all right if it is a country that is partly in the southern hemisphere? (eg Kenya and a few others I can think of)
Oh and question 4 isn't really a geography question, is it?

A Sea would be the North Sea or the Mediterranean and so on, would it?

Doesn't have to be entirely in the Southern Hemisphere. Just the majority/ at least half, which is pretty much every country in passes through so should be no problem.
Well, it's difficult to think of questions which aren't entirely original after so many games etc.

Sorry, Life outside daily got in the way. I had a family emergency which took a few days to overcome, and then I was pre-occupied with organising and performing at a concert.
I am very sorry, I always thought i'd be one of the few game host to not go AWOL.

19 answers were received.
Question 1: Name a sea:
The first question of the new round. If you didn't answer the picturesque Mediterranean Sea (15), you were only able to gather a single point for this question.
Question 2: Name a country below the equator line:
Another question with 1 dominant answer. Australia was above every other country named, with 14 points. The only onther country named more than once was Brazil with 2.
Spoiler 1x All other answers
Question 3: Name A US state:
1 answer stood out here too. At this point, there is 9 people on full points (including this question). Could it be any closer?!
The winner here was definitely sunny (So I believe) California! Being named 12 times, there was no opposition. Sorry, Texas! (3)
Spoiler 2x Washington
1x Florida
1x New York
Question 4: Name an international fast food chain (excluding McDonald's):
Surprisingly for me, the dominant answer here is not what I expected it to be. Subway, now the largest fast food chain in the world, only managed a measley 1 vote. It was outdone by burger-frying Burger King, being named 10 times. There was actually another named answer that came close on this question, with KFC being named 7 times.
Question 5: Name a country with at least 5 other countries bordering it:
Interesting question with some interesting answers. I, personally, was expecting to see France dominate here. But hey, the result isn't decided by me. France only managed 2 votes. Good ol' Germany were the most named (7), and China was named 4 times.
Spoiler 3x Russia
2x France
1x Austria, Switzerland, Poland
Results:
The Winner of the 3rd round of I'm With Stupid is..
And this has to be some kind of record. It's a five-way tie between Dippofix, knockout, Jesleyh, Selwink and ticcque! With that, they all also scored a perfect round! Congratulations to them.
Overall:
knockout keeps and only slightly increases his lead over ticcquewho moves up to second, leapfrogging Stromeon. Dippofix moves from 6th up to 3rd, while last round's winner welker3257 improves his overall position.
Well, what a desicive round it has been! It should really be a 5-way battle for the finish now, with the gap from 5th to 6th nearly 20 points.

Yes, I missed the first rounds since I was on holiday
But still, I want to see where I can get with only the last 3 rounds

How did Germany beat France on a cycling forum? And Subway is the largest fast food chain in the world, how could I be the only one to say them? Heck, I shou've had a perfect round. But I guess I'm with Stupid.

Not too bad, I'm still in with a chance of overall victory
Should have put Germany, not China

Wow, this was an amazing round.
@Jesleyh Guess, you can go way up as this round brought you more points than the leader (me ) had after round two |
