Oh ta! I don’t think I did it like that before but that’s really helpful 
Ooohhh, I only just noticed that this was in response to @Nor_Treblig ´s video and not @someone ´s suspenders photo!
I was sooooo confused when I read that, I thought those were some totally out there euphemisms!

Nah, just use an extra pillow on your seat, turn the music up and you are fine.

I’d probably win that.
Nope, because he thought “oh, well, I’ll reply on that first thing tomorrow”

Hear ye! Hear ye! Behold, the results of the Christmas Thimbleweed Park Quiz.
'Twas a close finish, my friends. Of all ye merry submissions every one had some good, respectable answers. But it was the all-important bonus question that turned it.
But first…
Answers to questions 1-10
- What month was Thimbleweed Park first released?
Answer: March 2017 - What are the first six words spoken by a character in the game?
Answer: I fly halfway around the world - Who provides the voice for Delores?
Answer: Elise Kates - Name three items Willie asks for in his drunken ramblings by the dumpster
Possible answers: dime, kombucha, Ransome swag, second-hand crystals, gluten-free doughnuts, loose change, a drink - Aside from Ransome himself, name the other contestants in the Ransome lookalike contest
Answer: Cory and Corey - How many water fountains (excluding sinks) are featured in the game?
Answer: three (hotel lobby, town hall lobby, and in the factory outside Chuck’s offiss) - What time does the clock say in the hotel, regardless of when it is? 1 point for getting the correct hour
Answer: 4:05 (4 for the point) - Name three inventory items that don’t have a use in the game
Answer: animal paperweight, snake in a box, Lurlene the chinchilla, plastic rings, Atari cartridges, Starship Isabella in a bottle, Betamax tape, CAT5-o’-nine-tails, broken bottles of ketchup, lettuce, bank flyer - Franklin has seven unique verbs. What are they?
Answer: Wail, moan, splash, zap, despair, chill, blow on
10.What colour is Ransome’s balloon?
Answer: pink (I also accepted purple, magenta and red, allowing for varying displays)
Notes
4. Willie also mentions ‘Thimbleweed Park guided tours’, but since he’s likely offering rather than asking for these, I didn’t count it as an answer.
6. This caused a bit of debate (Nor picked it apart 
). I was after the drinkable water fountains, which I should’ve specified. I didn’t think about the big one in the lobby. I factored this in when marking the answers, though most people got the number correct anyway.
8. This was also a bit controversial. I was after items that had no effect on the game or the characters (I was thinking of items that could be trashed).
I will use this experience to be more specific next time 
Bonus question
Using as many letters as you can from the names Ron Gilbert, David Fox and Gary Winnick, come up with an interesting inventory item for an adventure game. 5 points to the funniest!
After a bit of consideration, I had to go with @Sushi’s:
DINKY DRAGONBARF ELIXIR (W/TONIC)
To me, this was the most amusing and used the most letters out of the answers that qualified (some didn’t, as they used extra letters). It would’ve worked just as well without the ‘(W/TONIC)’, and still would’ve outnumbered the other answers.
Notably, until that answer came in I was going to go with @milanfahrnholz for
WORN NICKEL VIBRATOR
– special mention!
The winners
1st place (10 points) – @Sushi 
First runner-up (8 points) – @yrface 
Joint second runners-up (7 points) – @milanfahrnholz and @LowLevel 
Well done everyone, this was fun!

So, did you count my answer of 1.5 fountains?
But mine was two letters longer: I thought it was much funnier having David Fox Gary Winnick Ron Gilbert in the inventory!
You forgot ‘Float to’
Wait, you didn’t count #D71BAD, #B91882, #E359A5 and #EF9EC5 / #E97EB6? I’m pretty sure I didn’t look that up!
But seriously, no magenta?
oh I see a three-headed game developer. clever!

I counted your original, technically correct answer of 1+2+1, before you launched into your thesis
It was funny, and clever, but technically not what the question was asking. It might’ve been a bit unfair on the other participants.
I didn’t count that because it’s not in the verb list.
Sorry I actually gave you the point for magenta, just forgot to list it above.

OMG NO, there aren’t more than two, do I have to explain it all over again…
OK OK, you didn’t count it.
BUT: Technically it was what you were asking for: Rearranging the letters to get an interesting inventory item using as many letters as possible. See, @uriel understands me!
Could you perhaps post all bonus question replies? I’m sure there are other funny ones, and I just want to read them all.
I was pretty proud myself for coming up with this one as it felt more like something you’d find in a bar in MI…
using @David 's full name (as in ‘David B. Fox’):
“Wobbly NavigatorTM fried gin drink”
