Had you asked "What does feign mean?" instead of looking up, you would have consolidated your lead. :jump:
It could be he is just "feigning" ignorance. Why are cylinders round was the best part of his question.

It's clearly "Open competition: silliest questions on Kiteforum". It was designed to be from the onset.

Thank you for joining.

Zigzag and plummet are disqualified for not abiding to the rules:
The dumbest :dumbo: question must be kite related.
Else the whole humanity would be competing. Remember:
"Two Things Are Infinite: the Universe and Human Stupidity"
Albert Einstein.
Are you suggesting we should start an "open class" competition?
Toby might object, deeming it doesn't belong to this forum.

Too sensible a question to qualify for the competition.

Answer: when guys comment and ask more questions in silly topics.

Well... Isn't the whole purpose of kiteforum to make up for windless days?
Is there anyone around on windy days? PMU perhaps...

Good one again :thumb: , Ned, but...

Rule number 3: you cannot occupy two places on the podium, even if you deserve it, else it couldn't be called an "open" competition.

Evidently, you are seeking a monopoly, and I'll fight for the rights of the other entrants.

Updated classification:

1. What is the difference between a double skin foil kite? (Ned) :winner2:

2. Is kitesurfing really addictive? (panchito)

3. Why are pump bases flat? (consumer)

4. Why are pumps cylinders and pistons round? (Supa EZ)

5. Can a person live in Maui on 20k a year? (rtz)

6. Why are Kite Harnesses so F'n Ugly!? (Laughingman)


Ned still in the lead. His reformulated question has been judged better than the one he submitted earlier.

Two new application have just been rejected.

"Kiteforum needs an honest review section!" by Jdizzle.
because the required question mark is missing:
Otherwise it's excellent as a meaningless proposition ;-).

And "Dumb question ....." by dniez
firstly because there is not question mark.
secondly because of the admission
and thirdly because there are are no dumb questions.
