w/r/t complaints as to the game officially starting: Is it necessary to allow competitors to know that they're playing, or is it acceptable to rack up points during the surprise round?
*cough* We've got us some rhetoricalquestionsround here, in addition to the non-sequitur and unforced fouls IE already pointed out. To my tally that matches me with IE's 3. Anyone see the scores differently?
Has Rorek increased the maximum allowed name size yet? You are aware that I cannot use your most excellent name unless the current restriction on length of handle is loosened, aren't you?

What is Questions?
Have you never heard of Questions?
Have you seen the film referenced in the inspiring claim?
Have you seen or read the play?
Is there a play?
I love playing, but I suck at it.
If I hadn't seen and read the play (both) where would I have learned about Questions?
We played in high school. I don't know that any of us was aware of the play. The movie wasn't made until later.
@RL, do you realize you have two fouls already?
We've been playing all this time?
Does the pope sh*t in the woods?
Is a bear Catholic?
Why didn't someone tell me?
RL: is that considered necessary?
IE: didn't you mention the movie?
would it have hurt to make it clear?
Should I not have assumed it more likely RG would have heard of the film than the play?
IE: would it not have been more courteous to suggest he was more cultured?
RL: Has it ever been made more clear than by asking a question that mentions the game?
V: Did you see where I said I suck at this game?
Is there a link explaining how to play?
Have you tried wikipedia?
Are the rules are there?
You do realize that I meant to "on there"?
How many "are"s do you need in that question?
Would it help if I apologized?
Do you want two player or multiplayer?
Which one are we playing?
Hasn't this silliness gone on long enough?
How does a game usually end?
Should silliness really ever end?
And shouldn't the endings be silly?

Why do I get the sense that despite the fact you disagreed with this claim, you do in fact love playing Questions?
how would you rack up points?
Don't I only need one more point to win, since I called foul on Ralph twice?
Are you trying to play some weird variant where two unanswered points puts you at greater than 30-love?
Wouldn't the fouls (assuming I get one more) just eliminate me?
Are you saying you'd like me to eliminate you?
Was this game supposed to make sense?
Does Questions ever really make sense?
Did you misread my question?
Why is the cow?
Does my next foul mean that you win? Or simply that I lose?
Wouldn't we have to agree on a scoring system before we could answer that?
Isn't that what I'm asking?
Do you think I should speak representatively for the group?
Shouldn't that honor go to the claimant?
Do you realize I ignored Chron's non-sequitur?
Why the claimant and not the first loser?
Does Dolly Parton sleep on her back?
Ralph, are you trying to say you'd like to stop playing?
Can you see the similarity between my question about Dolly and your question about the pope?
Are we having fun yet?
Claims inspired by this comment
I like "Zippy the Pinhead"Are you patronizing me?
Is there any way I could answer that wouldn't be interpreted as 'yes'?
Why don't you try?
Are you smiling as much as I am?
Doesn't it show?
Was Robin's question a non-sequitur too?
How did I miss his foul?

Why do you have to be such a party pooper?
CAn I point out the double-foul by TVRZL?
Do we really have to point out fouls in question form too?
Is there any way to make my disagree red, and flaming next to my name?
Why don't you just change your name again to reflect your disagreement?
What do you suggest, to best illustrate my lack of love for this game?
How about The Very Right Reverend Zebediah D "For-the-Questions-Game-I-have-a-singularly-distinct-and-deeply-felt-lack-of" Love
?
Has Rorek increased the maximum allowed name size yet? You are aware that I cannot use your most excellent name unless the current restriction on length of handle is loosened, aren't you?
Do you think that such a narrowly-focused appellation would have been a very good idea even if it were shorter?
Where'd everybody go?
Was it something I said?
Don't you ever sleep? Are you under the impression that I don't sleep?
Also, does it make sense to worry about the narrow application of a handle that is likely to change in less than a week?
Why is it you change your moniker so frequently?
Are you saying I spend too much time on jyte? Aren't you in a time zone several hours behind mine?
Have you ever used a handle to express a thought on a single claim before?
Did you see me change my name for the "I find it interesting that Ben is no longer Ben" claim?
Are you suggesting that it's inappropriate?
Has the suggestion of inappropriateness ever dissuaded you before?
How is that relevant?
Do you really care if someone suggests your behavior is inappropriate?
Do you think I shouldn't?
Do you really care what I think?
Is your opinion worthwhile? How am I supposed to take your opinion seriously if you don't?
If I don't what?
Are you hard of hearing, or did I fail to make myself clear?
Are you drinking while jyting (again)?
You do realize I meant that in fun, right?
