	FELT? The material lining a pool table? Really??? Couldn't you have used a more obvious clue like 'An unincorporated community in Oklahoma of 100 people'. Geez!!! Reference: http://www.sporcle.com/games/sproutcm/FUNK____DUCK

	Although the covering on a pool table is known as Baize, it is a type of felt.

	Last time I checked, my comment was +3 points, seems like 8 people have completely missed the point.

	joeflint82, I had to go to the link you mentioned to get your point. I think your point is valid, but if your purpose is to educate us on the difference between a good quiz and a bad quiz, writing comments in a derogatory tone defeats the purpose and reflects badly on you. I find it interesting that, in your comment you kind of broke your own rule ...you were vague, referencing something obscure. I think your "How to Make a Bad Word Ladder" is hilarious, and is right on target. However, making that point in an impolite manner in the comments section makes you the one who looks foolish. I can tell that you're smarter than that ...show us that in the future.

	@JustANiceGuy: You didn't completely get my point, as the person who wrote this quiz is also the person who wrote the other quiz that I linked. I was sharing a joke with the author of this quiz, and I wouldn't be surprised to learn that he was one of my earlier thumbs up.

	@joeflint82: A reference to an unpublished quiz that was submitted 6 months ago will be lost on most people, but I did find it kinda funny.

	@all Yes, I thought it was HYSTERICAL, mostly because you remembered my word clue EVER written for the word felt (and yes, I most definitely had voted you up). I wish more people (who try to write word ladders) would take that quiz. :)

	joeflint82: Point taken. Just another example of how easy it is to be misunderstood in short snippets like this. I did give you a thumbs up on your first post, BTW.

	Who is John ____? ;)

	I misunderstood "First word in..." to mean the first spoken word in the movie. It would be clearer if it was "first word in the title of..." or even "first word of...".

	What a fun, tight little circle. Clever. Though I might have preferred a Deepthroat/Watergate clue for Felt (then again, that's pretty US-centric)

	@joeflint82, thanks for that link. I "Felt" that quiz was damn funny. And educational. And funny. And educational. Let me just hit "comment" and I'll say this all again for emphasis....

	Got everything but the first an last ones - I guess I need to watch more westerns!
