Balderdash

Naughty, naughty, justthefax. :wink:

Naughty, but transparent.

LOL.

Hmm, 2, 6, or 11.

I'll go with littlek: 11 for me, thanks.

#2 for me.

Sand the shore I go with #1

I opt fo #1 also

I hate to be a copycat, but

#1.

Seems like 1 is no longer the loneliest number...
I'll pick 1 also.

One, too

Did I say #2? I meant to say...oh, never mind...a vote cast is cast in stone, unless you live in Florida in which case it may be cast in, um, sand.

Gee I think Justthefax may have been right at first # 3, I have seen the sand castles in my dreams and it scared me.

This looks like a fun game.

Lets see # 4, #5 or #2

no, I think it is #3 too.

Welcome Slingofan! It is a fun game if you don't mind it being rather slow moving. A2K usually has a PM (personal messaging) function, which helps things along, but we still are a rather slow, laissez faire bunch.

If you will go to the first page of this long thread, you will find the rules. When a new game is started, you will be able to make up a bluff of your own and hope one of us will pick it, giving you a point for each person who was fooled by your bluff.

For now, I'll add your guess to the list and you just might get a point for picking the correct definition.

One other thing, there are two cats who enjoy playing this game. Taffy La Blanc, whose human is firstthought and Felix Noir, who has trained me to accomodate his every wish. They tend to pick each other's bluffs.

I'll post the bluffs and guesses tomorrow, so any of you who haven't already voted, get going!

Yikes! I forgot to welcome upintheairjrbird to a2k. Welcome!

Felix Noir picks #4. Yes, that is about as good as it gets!

Darn, arenaceous was familiar to six, count 'em, six players! I was much too easy on you.

1. REAL DEFINITION: Having the appearance or consistency of sand.
The geological geniouses who knew the correct answer are: justthefax, firstthought, Taffy Le Blanc (you just had to go for the sandbox, didn't
you?), equus, George and Clary.

2. George: Inclined to direct or control in a detailed, often meddlesome manner.
Realjohnboy thought this was grittily arenaceous.

3. Justthefax: Sand castles built in a fearful manner.
Slingofan likes the sound of fearful sand castles.

4. Taffy Le Blanc: A place where felines can go and have a good Scratch: Oh! that was good.
Yep, Taffy, you knew just how to fool Felix Noir.

5. Firstthought: Made up of fundamental sub-atomic particles of the Lepton class.
Nobody was into sub-atomic particles this time.

6. Jespah: The state of being expandable in high winds, flexible.
Sounds like sand, but no takers.

7. Equus: blood red
No one was into blood this time.

8. EhBeth: If Jessica Simpson was a spider, she'd be arenaceous.
Cute, but no takers.

9. Littlek: ARENACEOUS - of or relating to malfunctunes of the kidneys.
Nobody wanted to think about kidneys.

10. Felix Noir: An arena for lustful Tomcats to fight for the femme feline of the moment.
Welll, Felix thought it was a good bluff, but no go.

11. Diane: The state of liquidity of previously frozen fossilized amoeba, for study under laboratory conditions.
Picked by littlek and Jespah. Bless your little bluff pickin' hearts.

I'll try to have the scores added up by tonight, if I have time. Otherwise, you'll have to wait until Saturday.

Sorry about the puns..mine are always groaners.

Nice game, all you balderdashers!

If I've made any mistakes, post it here and I'll make corrections. (I have been known to make mistakes. )

Oh, the poor under appreciated kidneys! I seem to make a habit of voting for DIane and P&L's bluffs.

Who's dasher?

Hiya Jose!

I don't believe anyone has stepped in as dasher this round. The big problem is that the PM are down and the dasher has to give their email address out on these public pages.
