FEDERGORIES

Thursday June 17
by Angelfowl

Yay! As I called for Federgories this week, I was happy to see new faces in the crowd - I had Hannity, Merepoule, Jfour and Riku playing today. Our categories were based around "Retail Therapy" which seemed to trip them up - particularly during the bonus round.

We started off the night with Things you would find in a clothing store:
Jfour, "women"
Riku, "bowtie"
Hannity, "women" (Do I see a trend here?)
Merepoule, "scarf"

Things you would find in a bakery:
Merepoule, "croissant, of course"
Jfour, "buns"
Hannity, "love great smells" (Love??)
Riku, "Apron."

Name a Fed Planet (landable) in Sol:
Jfour, "Mars"
Hannity, "Titan"
Riku, "Titan." (Is Titan that memorable?)
Merepoule, " Pearl"

Things you would find in a hardware store:
Hannity, "wood"
Merepoule, "spanner (in a Fed hardware store)"
Jfour, "men"
Riku, "Light bulbs."

Places to avoid on "Black Friday":
Jfour, "malls"
Hannity, "A phone so your broker cannot call"
Merepoule, "electronics store"
Riku, "Sonic." (Surprisingly, there is someone in the world who has no clue what black Friday is.)

Name a Fed System starting with an S:
Hannity, "Sol"
Riku, "Shire."
Jfour, "Starcloud"
Merepoule, "Spindle"

Thing a man would NEVER buy:
Jfour, "a dress"
Merepoule, "bra"
Riku, "Clothes."
Hannity, "t bars"

Things you would find in a kitchen store:
Merepoule, "colander"
Jfour, "knives"
Riku, "Cookie cutter."
Hannity, "paper towels"

Name a Fed player starting with the Letter.... C:
Jfour, "Caesar"
Hannity, "Chefcheese"
Merepoule, "Chefcheese"
(Little did the host forget, the fact that most of these players were newbies--and there were not many C players on...)

Bonus Round: "Famous" Department stores:
Now my mom and I, the former created these categories, thought this would be a simply easy category. We were greatly mistaken, as you will see from these answers.
Hannity, "macys saks meijers"
Riku, "Wallmart Kroger Sam's club Target Dollar general."
Merepoule, "Galeries Lafayette, Nordstrom's, Abraham & Straus, Bloomingdale's, Belk's, JC Penney, Sears,"
Jfour, "khols, dillards, belk,macy's, lord&taylor, kmart, walmart"

The final scores were as follows:

Third place with 8 points. Hannity & Riku!!!
Second with a grand total of 14 points... JFOUR
In First with 16 amazing points.... MEREPOULE!!!

Thank you everyone for playing this week, and join me next week on Thursday, at 4.00pm EST.
