There is a lot of data that has to be compiled and sifted. I will be done in the next couple of days and then the game will begin. Thank you for your patience. This is fascinating...-Rick
The moment is upon us...finally, I know. Fifteen questions and twenty-six participants. Yes, that is 390 answers to go through. Some of the answers and findings completely surprised me. So with that here is how it is going to go. A new question will be posted every day or every other day. As you have come to expect, once the next question is posted, time is over to answer the previous question. Answers will be posted in the thread. No PM's this time around. Each survey question will have some (interesting to me) minutia and several questions to answer. One point awarded for each part of the question answered correctly. If all parts of a survey question are answered correctly, you will earn a bonus point. At the end of the game the person with the most points will win a little something from Morries among other goodness. I might do something for second and third place. Haven't decided yet. Yes, I will ship. Anyone can play. If you did not fill out the survey, you may still participate.
Survey Question 1 was how many Subarus have you owned. I had four people in double digits on this with two people having owned over 20 Subies each! We also had a few people who are experiencing their first Subaru. The questions: What is your best guess on how many cars the top four Subie owners have owned together? Get within five and earn a point. What is the average number of Subies owned by our survey participants? Please answer to the nearest tenth. Get within two of this and earn a point. What number was the mode (the most popular answer) for this survey? It appeared six times. Get within two and earn a point. Get all three question correct and earn the bonus point. Game On!

Keeping this moving along. What will help me out greatly is if you all would go back to your answers post, select edit, and in bold letters let me know how many points you earned for that question. The honor system will be a central theme of this game. Thank you.
