Waiting for five more votes. But, hey, I know it's not easy to choose amongst these great bluffs!
Yikes! This game takes a loooooooooong time to complete one round.
When we played it on Abuzz, each round lasted a week or more...
That's waaaaaaay too slow for my liking.
Dammit, I am going for 11 too - cos it is soooo cute!
I do believe in pooks
I do believe in pooks
I do I do I do I do
I do believe in pooks...
Have you seen any one-eyed, bald, dwarfs lately?
I have no idea, none! So I'll choose 3.........no 6........no 3, ok ok, I'll go with 6................. and this is my final...........3. It's 3 for me.
Ummm, this is impossible!
I'll pick 8. Felix woke up long enough to pick 3--he luuuvs ostrich feathers.
It should be a rule that bib and Craven can't vote until everyone else has voted. It would be too tempting to go along with whatever they say.
Not more rules! Arrrrrrrrgh - this game is slow enough as it is.
No Idea, so I'll go for #4
Okay! I'll post results tonight...
At long last, here are the results:
1. Those adorable little slippers that the girls of Ireland wear to school. (created by Swimpy)
2. Nineteenth-century slang derived from pox, used as a curse. (created by Diane)
3. Ostrich feathers. (created by Peace and Love - fooled Lola and Felix Noir)
4. Leather straps used to secure a suit of armor to the body. (created by Equus - fooled Swimpy and realjohnboy)
5. A loathesome disease; word form is either singular or plural. (created by jespah)
6. Small piles of hay. (the correct answer - correctly chosen by jespah)
7. Name for a small goblin or sprite known for making mischief around the house or farm, e.g. curdling milk, breaking crockery - used especially in Yorkshire. (created by dlowan - fooled Equus)
8. An outdoor children's game popular in New England circa 1880. (created by realjohnboy - fooled Diane)
9. An eighteenth-century sailor term meaning barnacles. (created by sozobe - fooled chatoyant)
10. Word used to describe vomit containing rodent parts. (created by Felix Noir)
11. A mythical, bald, one-eyed dwarf, always seen riding a pig. (created by Lola - fooled Peace & Love and dlowan)
12. Hair ornaments. (created by me - fooled sozobe)
And furthermore, Biblio sent me a definition that was (I thought) quite close to the real definition, so he gets 3 points automatically. His definition was "A bundle of brambles which are left to dry in a field."
Sadly, I forgot to post chatoyant's excellent definition: "An Eskimo word for decorative items used on a totem pole." Chatoyant, I apologize again for my grievous error.
Craven sat out this round. He's a very busy guy.
I'll work up the scores and post them soon.
Biblio--2 + 3 = 5
mac---4 + 1 = 5
chatoyant--2 + 2 = 4 (updated - see Lola's post below)
Equus--1 + 2 = 3
Lola----1 + 2 = 3
jespah--0 + 2 = 2
P&L------0 + 2 = 2
Craven--2 + 0 = 2
dlowan--1 + 1 = 2
Diane----2 + 0 = 2
realjohnboy--0 + 1 = 1
sozobe------------------1
Swimpy--0 + 0 = 0
Felix----------------0
Please speak up if you see an error in the scoring, and I will edit this list.
Macsm,
When a player's bluff definition gets left out, that person automatically receives 2 points. So Chatoyant should have 2 more points. Who is next for dasher? Bib, how about you?
And sad for me that I changed to 3 instead of 6. Boo Hoo.
that was a great word, macsm.....
Lola, I'm glad you chose #3..... You chose my definition and I chose your definition.... we each scored points.....
