    Rules:

    Two teams; whatever number of players we have, dont think team sizes matter that much. Lets leave it at max 3 per team to start with.

    New players can be added to teams as they come in alternating order.

    Pick a number between 1 and 3 to determine who goes first. Ill pm the number to someone to verify it.

    Teams then take alternating turns choosing a block by its letter, and answering a question corresponding to that letter. The answer will start with that letter. Answers will be 1 word answers.

    If a team answers correctly, the block they chose turns into their colour.

    If a team gets a question wrong, it will be offered to the other team to steal the block and change it to their colour.

    The goal of the game is to create a continuous line of blocks in your colour from left to right (blue team) or top to bottom (yellow team).

    ABSOLUTELY NO GOOGLING OF QUESTIONS OR ANSWERS ALLOWED BY PLAYERS. Honour system is in place, so we cant stop you, but be sound and dont do it!

    Oh yeah right. You can choose whatever you want now.


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,617 ✭✭✭Mollyb60


    Jules I'm thinking Blue for the team. Do you want to pick a letter to get us rolling?


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,617 ✭✭✭Mollyb60


    Also Bob, same as for codenames I'm thinking we can confer on the answer all we like but our official answer will need to be in CAPS as a way to distinguish it?

    Let's pass it over to the yellows for now. This is all new, so i dont mind discussing it, but just to keep both teams involved, ill throw it over to the other team on alternate goes.

    Sorry Blues!
