I used to love watching game shows, and Family Feud was among my favorites. I think I loved the game so much, because you didn't have to be smart to do well. They surveyed people and used the top answers, so you just had to be 'average.' Yep, 'average' I can do. :)
I thought it would be fun to play a Facebook version of Family Feud, so some author friends and I got together and created Fiction Fanatics Feud. Each Saturday, we post three questions (one is related to romance or other genres such as paranormal, suspense, historical). We give people an opportunity to answer the questions, and visit each author site to perform an 'Author Love' task, such as liking our Amazon or Facebook page, etc. Entrants gain points for the task, PLUS, they gain points for attempting to answer the questions, right or wrong.
As an example, this week's questions are:
Fiction Fanatics Feud Question 1:
Name a recreational activity traditionally done in hot weather
Fiction Fanatics Feud Question 2:
Name the most popular ways for villains to commit murder
Fiction Fanatics Feud Question 3:
Name something people do while riding a roller coaster
Feel free to pop over to Facebook and join in the fun by clicking HERE:
Great post--I loved Family Feud, and this game sounds so fun. Since I don't want to take a prize away from one of our readers, here are my answers--I tried to go for variety:
ReplyDelete1: Name a recreational activity traditionally done in hot weather SEX
2: Name the most popular ways for villains to commit murder SEX (you said "popular", right? nobody really likes murder, so....)
3: Name something people do while riding a roller coaster SEX (Soar, then EXpel their lunch)

Hahaha, I'm sensing a theme here, Christine. :) By the way, everyone can provide up to five answers for each. I guess yours would be sex, sex, sex, sex, and sex? Thanks for stopping by!
DeleteOMG. That's hilarious!
ReplyDeleteI always enjoyed Jeopardy. Even turned the weekly spelling assignment into a Jeopardy format when I taught middle school. When I taught high school, the students frequently said I should be a contestant on Jeopardy because I was so knowledgeable. What they didn't know is I'm only smart when it comes to literature. Sports? Movies? World Affairs? forgetabout it! Good luck with the game. Hoping to join as an author some day.
ReplyDeleteI liked Jeopardy, but I was never good at it. I don't have a well-rounded enough education. :) Thanks so much for stopping by!
ReplyDeleteHey Alicia, sorry I'm late. I'm playing catch up with the blog posts. I don't know if I had a favorite Family Feud host, but I automatically think of Richard Dawson, so I guess I'll go with him.
ReplyDeleteMy answers:
1) Hot weather activity: sweat
2) Popular murder method: strangle
3) Things people do on a roller coaster: If they're anything like me, at my current age and leaky bladder, pee their pants!
Funny post, Alicia!
