I’ve been watching a lot of it recently. It bugs me when someone gets the spirit of the answer right, but they don’t get the point. For example, there was a question asking what scents might remind someone of their partner. The contestant answered “wood”. Now anyone who knows scents and fragrance knows that sandalwood is a very popular scent. That’s obviously what he meant by that, but he doesn’t get the point. Later, someone does get the answer of cologne/body spray.
(It would be cool if anyone could help with my actual question, which is the title of the post. Lol)
Where did you get the idea that Family Feud rules have any leniency to allow giving out points for creative or unusual answers?
I’m saying they should. Also, the leniency I’m talking about is in the interpretation of the answers.
It’s a poll. If enough people respond with an unorthodox answer, it will be on the board. Awarding points outside of the poll goes entirely against the game.
