[Kmd4390]

Yes

[Errantparabola]

how are you feeling, mcmenno?

It's time for the second iteration of the Name Game.
After a long wait, it's finally happening!
PM me to sign up and be added to the rotation. Or you can holler at me in sitechat or in this thread.

After ~3 days, if enough people are interested, I'll put a list of all the people that signed up in the first post, and also in a new one. When I do that, your job is to think of a name for the person below you (if you're at the bottom of the list, you think of a character for the person at the top.) Once you have your name, PM everyone in the list EXCEPT for the person below you that name. Then everyone will be able to answer everyone else's yes/no questions which keeps pace fast.

See first post for examples of names that have been used in the past. You want to make sure your name is guessable by the person below you.

See the thread for example of play. It's pretty simple.

And McMenno can choose to give up, otherwise it's still viable for him to keep trying.

Player Size: Unlimited

How it Works: Everyone is assigned another player. Think of a person/character, real or fictional, and tell everyone but that player. That player's job is to guess the person. It should be someone that the player could reasonably guess without Google (which should not be used).

After that's done, everyone goes in a circle and takes turns asking yes/no questions. If the answer is yes, you can keep asking questions. If the answer is no, your turn is over and it goes to the next person. Since everyone knows who that player's character is, anyone can answer, which should streamline the process by quite a bit. If the answer is truly ambiguous, then it might be best to either defer to the player who came up with the character.

Once you guess your character, I'll add it to a list with how many turns you took or something. At this time, I'll give 24 hours (short period of time since people correctly guessing should be a somewhat common occurrence) and anyone who wants to join in, including the person who correctly guessed, can do so and we'll add them to the circle.

Thoughts?

Who am I?

[Errantparabola]

Sorry, I forgot to add you last time. That's fixed.
So far we have 7 people. Like, maybe at least 1 or 2 more people would be an excellent size

[Errantparabola]

Looks like this is the list of people we are playing with:

Kmd4390 --
N --
Errantparabola --
Gamma Emerald --
PeregrineV --
Realeo --
Agent Sparkles --

So once again, think of a character for the person below you to guess, and send everyone but that person your character!

[Realeo]

Ep. Me dont think i signed up

[Errantparabola]

ummm, oops. idk how you snuck in there. I'll let PV know.

[Gamma Emerald]

When do we start guessing?

[N]

I think I've got everyone, if Realeo isn't playing?
