Some small observations:

- The two people to pick "Jake" for #1 were both Jakes Jessica was the only other to put their own name, everyone else sort of made guesses of each others' names (or went for a different tactic entirely).
- Also enjoyed the idea that Colin and Fred are still popular names
- I was so pleased #10 was limited to two different answers because the rest were pretty chaotic
- I did feel kinda mean separating "underwear" from "clothes" but literally every single person said the word "clothes" when the other said "underwear" so I had to count them as different answers, sorry

I personally picked Robert because Rob! had just scored a 100% pointless round in the round prior, luckily two others went for it too

Yeah I think a few people hoped that the size of Fortnite would override the technicality of the question wording, but even then it was relatively close (FIFA was winning by a landslide with the first 10 votes).

It didn't even occur to me to use a TiBB members name I just thought William was a very popular English name, the name of one of the princes etc and was unusual in all the years there's never been a William on BB

Fortnite was the first game that popped into my head so i checked if it there was more than one and there was...luckily for me I decided to just google other games beginning with F and that reminded of way bigger games than Fortnite, I did agonise for ages between Final fantasy, FiFi, Far Cry and Fallout, thankfully I settled on Final Fantasy in the end because it seemed to have the most sequels

Congrats to both MTVN and Daniel, it felt harsh not having two winners because you were pretty much the only two that exchanged places at top of the leaderboard throughout the game. A really tough contest for the third spot too (38pts between 3rd and 10th, even after double points!), so well done to Marc

I'll now start to format the post for Pointless...
