Do some have a habit of "stealing" their home from another animal?

Right you are!

+2 to daz4321 for the correct answer.
+1 to Sugar Magnolia for riddling (she did infact host for an hour and answered 5 questions.)
24 hours for the 1 point steal.

Daz, do you wish to riddle?

Okay, riddling is open to anyone but Sugar since she riddled last. If no one speaks up I'll start one later tonight.

This games is getting close to a prize winner. Daz leads with +8 (assuming no steal).

Just so everyone knows, I'll have to take over once we reach a situation where either a correct answer or riddling will result in a final win, to avoid any incentive to cheat. I'll want input from all of you at that time, regardling rules, possible amendments, and most important, if this game is worth continuing.

Again, riddling is open to the first taker (not Sugar) or until I get back later tonight.

Peace out.

Sorry Daz... never time to play, but always time to steal.

Sorry MotherFish, the rules on steals have changed slightly since the previous thread. This no longer counts as a steal. Now you need to find a duplicate of the same photographic moment on a different website than the one used for the answer.

I suspect it's out there.
