6,9,10 or 18. Hmm.
I'll be different and say #9.
Oligotokos
With the roll of of the dice came lucky 7: so I opt for 7
taffy
Balderdash
What imaginative offerings, any aliens from other planets or Channel Scifi
kindly indicate.
As Earth is the 3rd rock from Sol I choose #3
ft
Here comes the Irish contingent...I'm probably too late to play...but never mind.
#3 is popular, but then so was John Kerry (oops...wrong thread)
hehehehehe
these are good
i'll have to come back and examine them carefully a bit later on
Torn between #3 and #18, but I'll hedge my bets and go with #3.
Hmmm...
9 and 10 appeal to me.
I'll go with 10.
Justthefax thinks it is # 12
Startdust the cat says # 7 she knows a bad cat or two.
A2K has been down most of the weekend.
Great choices. I'll take that clever # 6. Cleverness should never go unrewarded. And three cheers for John Boy for dragging this puppy up the hill.
Hi, I said on, perhaps, last Wednesday that I was hoping to close down this round tonight. I missed Craven's announcement that A2K would be closed for the weekend. So let's shoot for Tuesday evening around about 7 pm ET. I hope that by then I can find my scorecard, now buried under four more days of paper. It's here somewhere.
WARNING! I did grovel a bit to get participation from some alumni who no longer play on a regular basis. A number of them were kind enough to offer bluffs out of pity or whatever for poor johnboy. I think it would be inappropriate to now pester them for a vote. Therefore, no pm's to anyone reminding them of the 7pm Tuesday deadline. Thank yall for being so oligotokous. rjb
Stardust read this thread and said silly human you did not pick the one I told you too. Stardust said silly human pick #3,
So I change my vote to number 3
Stardust said her guess should remain unchanged I don't know why. Try to figure out a cat and you will be barking up the wrong tree.
No nagging until monday night? I just got back on a2k! Ok,ok..... um....
I'll go for 5, it made me laugh.
since i keep misplacing this, i'm dragging it up the hill as well

Ah, as usual, the bluffers on Balderdash have confoozled me yet again. Despite my confusion, I will go with #2. Felix Noir picks, with his usual aplomb, #17--damn humans.
Well, I am here, impatiently waiting for the next game to start...sorry I went MIA during the last game...puter probs, user error, blonde...which one works? LOL!
Jameson
Am I too late? I like 10 and 15, but I can only choose one, so....10.
I'm so bad at this game, I'm choosing number 18. I don't know why, other than it seems to be the one with the most visible attempt to mislead.......so, it's called Balderdash.........so 18 is my choice.
oh oh oh, I hope I'm right!
Cheshire says it has to be #5, but that has mostly to do with the size of his bum.
Of the folks who submitted bluffs, only ehbeth and slingofan have yet to vote, Jameson, you are welcome to vote in this round if you so choose.
7 pm ET (or so). Be here!
