Imposter game questions

Question mode is the imposter game for people who like to talk. Everyone answers the same question, except the imposter, who secretly gets a slightly different one. Then the answers are revealed and the table works out whose answer doesn't quite fit.

How question mode works

Everyone gets the crew question. The imposter gets its twin and doesn't know it.
Everyone writes a short answer. Then the crew question is shown to all.
Find the answer that fits the twin question better, and vote.

Crew question, and below it the imposter's question

What makes a good question pair

The answers overlap. "A number between 1 and 100" against "between 1 and 50" makes most answers plausible for both.
Ask for something specific, like a name, a number or a place, so the answers can be compared.
Keep confession questions for friends who know each other well.
