re: 2012 POG Olympic Games Survivor

I think that was a very good game

Is there any prize for medalists? I would propose: 3 medals = one immunity from elimination

re: 2012 POG Olympic Games Survivor

I plan to do some games that aren't trivia-based, like RPS and musical chairs, but I want to do peehs before we have any fewer players, so . . .

Event 4: Peehs

Objective: score the lowest by picking the least popular correct answers. Your score for each question will be the number of people, including you, who pick your answer. Incorrects will be scored however the scorer scores them. NO RESEARCH.

PM me the 8 answers in an unnumbered list with no blank lines and no comments - and use "Peehs 2" as your PM heading.

Deadline: 11 a.m. ET Saturday. Anyone who submits by the deadline is safe. After that, I will accept entries until I post "no more entries" or start the reveal. Anyone who hasn't submitted by then will be disqualified. The player(s) with the highest score will be eliminated. If only one player has the highest score, the player(s) with the next highest score will also be eliminated.

These questions relate to the regular Olympics (not Special, Para, or POG ).

A letter of the Greek alphabet (i.e., what it's called, not the symbol)
A country that has hosted the Olympics
A country with at least 500 medals
A sport in which at least one athlete has won at least 7 gold medals
A sport that takes place in/on the water in the Summer Olympics (current)
An event in the decathlon (current)
An individual event in men's artistic gymnastics (current)
Name a common word of at least four letters that contains only these letters: G A M E S. [You may use any given letter more than once or not at all. Words will be considered the same if they lead to the same entry on merriam-webster.com or whatever dictionary I use if that's unavailable, and incorrect if they do not lead to any entry.]

GL!

re: 2012 POG Olympic Games Survivor

I follow the US school of thought that medal count > gold count

Unfortunately I suck at peehs

At least one athlete has won at least 7 gold medals in that sport, whether as an individual or on a team.

re: 2012 POG Olympic Games Survivor

I still don't understand.

Are you saying at least one person has won seven medals, although others may have also won 7 medals.

Or there have been at least 7 medals won total in the history of the sport.

re: 2012 POG Olympic Games Survivor

There are a number of people who have won at least 7 gold medals in the Olympics. Think of those people and name the sport for which one of them won those medals. Yes, there can be several people in a sport who fall into the 7X gold medal category.
