Ten in Ten starts when the board rolls. Reminder of the rules inside -- (edited)

(1) I will present a category.

(2) You will provide an answer within 10 minutes which you believe to be in the top 10 elements of said category. For the sake of your fellow contestants and the game administrator, please place your answer in the subject line of your response.

(3) If your answer is in the top 10, you score points equal to your answer's ranking in the category. That is, the top answer is worth 1 point, the second place answer 2 points, and so on, with the bottom answer garnering you 10 points.

(4) If your answer is not in the top 10, you get nothing.

(5) If someone else has already responded with your answer, you also get nothing.

(6) You may only submit one answer, which cannot be changed after submission even if someone else
has already guessed it.

(7) If you submit more than one answer, I will only score the first one.

(8) If you submit an ineligible answer (your second or third or nth reponse), you get nothing for it and anyone who has not yet answered may steal it for their own use and receive full credit as if you never said it.

(9) Points are cumulative from question to question. Highest score wins.

(10) No googling or the equivalent.

Note: the scoring system was shamelessly stolen from a lousy short-lived game show called Dirty Rotten Cheater. This is the only aspect of the show worth recommending.

Game administrator reserves the right to award additional guesses to contestants confused
by poor question wording, led astray by ambiguities, etc.
