For 'a character who tells a story', 'Connie' and 'Camilla' canceled out. The only answer that scored was 'Crackers' from Sunset Bowlawater, which a lot of you thought of for number 4 but, Jehosaphat was the only one to think to put him for both. I can't think of any other correct answers.
For 'an episode about money management/stewardship', a couple people tried (A Little) Credit Please, which canceled out (not that it would have counted anyway ) The only other answer submitted was 'Choices' which I also chose not to accept. No one scored from this category. I probably would have accepted 'Clutter', 'Chains' or 'Career Moves' but, there definitely was no obvious answer for this one. The best answer was probably 'Clutter'.
For 'an episode about prayer', answers included '(A Most Extraordinary) Conclusion', 'Checkmate' and 'Camp What-a-Nut', none of which I could accept so, no one scored on this one either. Again, there weren't any correct answers. (apart from a few that would be pretty big stretches) Probably the only one I would have counted is 'Connie'.
For 'an animal in Odyssey', 'Crackers' and 'cat' canceled out. Woody submitted 'Chester' thinking of the Parkers' bird in For the Birds but, his name is actually Dexter. The only scoring answer was 'Cheddar', Tom's 5-legged boyhood dog mentioned in A Christmas Conundrum. Kudos to Graces4you for an impressive answer. To my knowledge, there are no more correct answers.
For 'something to do with the Blackgaard saga', 'Computer Programs' canceled out and I deemed 'Computer' as too vague, leaving the scoring responses as 'Computer Room', 'Code Breaker 2', 'Conflict' (that one was iffy but, I couldn't justify denying it since it's... quite applicable) and 'campaign contribution from Edgebiter' - a two-pointer by Laura Ingalls! Other correct answers include 'Chicago', 'City Council' (a two-pointer) and, if 'Conflict' counts, I suppose 'Christianity' would have to as well.
For 'something in either Connelsville or Pokenberry Falls', 'Church' canceled out. I didn't accept 'City Hall' since a city hall has never been mentioned in either town or 'Concrete Sidewalk' since it uses an irrelevant adjective. Scoring responses included 'Connelsville Penitentiary' (mentioned in the video series... ), 'Christmas Lights' (mentioned specifically in A Pokenberry Christmas) and 'College Chapel' (in Pokenberry Falls) - another two-pointer, also by Laura Ingalls. The only other correct answer I can think of is 'Connelsville High' which, I believe, played Odyssey in a baseball game in an older episode but, I'm not sure.
THANKS FOR PLAYING!
This game was definitely a lot of fun and I might do some more rounds here and there in the future but, the scoring is actually pretty time-consuming. It was a lot of fun, though, and I was impressed with you guys' creative answers. Unfortunately for the rest of you, Laura Ingalls was pretty unstoppable but, congratulations to her, shadowdog, bookworm and everyone else on a job well done!

Dan, even though Laura cheated by submitting so many two-pointers, this game was top-notch. I can't remember a more fun game in recent ToO history. Thanks for running it!

Bah. You're just jealous of my Scattergories skillz.
Haha, thanks for the game, KBT, it was tons of fun.
The Lord is not slow about His promise, as some count slowness, but is patient toward you, not wishing for any to perish, but for all to come to repentance. ♡
