    * Biggest 'M' state in terms of population.
    * Big lake.
    * Easier to spell than Massachusetts or Mississippi
    * Much talked about swing state in the Election.
    * Mean Girls reference ;)

    Yeah but Stephen King is from Maine and that's even easier to type than Michigan :D:D

    6. A president of the USA (1960-2000)

    A couple more people to choose from in this question, including one that, like a bad penny, just refuses to go away. But which, if any, of these former POTUSes won the Forum Games’ popular vote?

    Surprisingly to me anyway, Bill Clinton is the highest-scoring answer in this question. Nobody, however, nominated it for their Double Or Nothing. Two people who had faith in JFK can, in my opinion, consider themselves unlucky

    7. A team who has won the English Premier League (1995-2020)

    There were only seven options to choose from here, five of which were nominated. Which team did you support, and were you joined by enough people to fill a stadium, or barely enough to fill the away end?

    If it makes your feel any better, I felt dirty submitting that answer, but I knew it would be easy points.
