This is all very fine and large, but remember ZAX? Hiama (PM'd) appears to be on holiday like 90% Brits, so we'll have to do without him.
1 Felix Noir chilled out with this, beguiled Taffy Le Blanc
2 hiama chiselled this out, bought by firstthought
3 cooked up by Jespah, digested by nobody
4 true definition. Naj, devriesj, drom, justthefax and equus got a score on the slate with this one
5 Diane took off with this one, landed belly up by panzade
6 firstthought bored with this and George and Diane put their skulls on the line for it
7 Taffy's sacred cat scratched Felix Noir
8 devriesj conceived this monster, but it was unadopted
9 drom-et reve yearned for this one, and littlek came to a bad end by choosing her
10 conceived by Equus, nurtured by Peace and Love but didn't thrive.
11 planted by Clary but picked by no one
12 littlek revered them, but nobody else worshipped at the shrine
13 George bred this one, but it died unloved
14 Naj put this one into the air, but it choked nobody
15 Peace and Love generated this, and it was abortive for jespah
By my inexpert reckoning, the scores are as follows:
firstthought: 5 + 1 + 1 = 7
Drom: 3 + 2 + 1= 6
dev: 3 + 2 = 5
Equus: 1 + 2 + 1 = 4
George: 3
Clary: 3
hiama: 2 + 1 = 3
rjb: 2
Onyx-: 2
PaL: 1 + 1 = 2
naj 0 + 2 = 2
justthefax 2
jespah: 1
diane: 1
felix 1
taffy 0 + 1 = 1
littlek 0
scarlettmarsden 0
Excellent! And my apologies for the hijacking! naj, drom, if you want to continue discussing it, send me a PM and we can trade emails, that might be the easiest way to do this.
Great round, Clary!
(And great ideas again, Jes and Naj; we should discuss them more, because it would be a shame to just forget about it at this stage.)
I had so much fun this round. I was completely baffled by the word, that's the solid truth ;-)
But I loved all the bluffs
I'll pm you, jespah... But I'll need to think your ideas over first ;-)
It's interesting there were so many the same - all those weird animals, and 3 boring tools
Jespah, I absolutely love your idea!!!
I hope you post a link to the game thread.... I would love to play!!!
Clary, thanks for being the Dasher.... a great round and a great word..... good job!!!
PaL
:-)
A pleasure, PaL. Who is dashing next?
Clary your word summation of Zax is pure poetry, if I could could award you 3 points I would but it is beyond my powers.
hiama may have been caught in that flash flood in North Cornwell while eating his Cornish pastie
ft
I am flattered, firstthought, and wish you could indeed add a 3 to my miserable score
I think I live nearer the flash floods of Cornwall than hiama but maybe he was on holiday there... did you know the Witchcraft Museum has lost over half its irreplaceable artefacts?
Oh, that is sad!
1stthought - you're not seriously worried about HIAMA, are you?
hiama
littlek no it was meant as a joke or an excuse I think hiama can look after himself.

okiedokie, just checking.
Oh dear.......I realize I showed up and said I might play and didn't show back up again. I'm so busy guys......moving to NY, moving my girls to college in Oregon and tying up loose ends.......in September, I'll be more settled. I'm glad to see the old Balderdash game is going right along on it's on steam. I love this game........I'll be back. In the meantime.......enjoy you all.
We're short of a dasher....
Eek I have a possible word but no time to dash.
Okay. I'll dash. Hope nobody knows this one:
DELOPE
to repent of eloping and go home to Mom and Dad?
