Sting says that the unearthly silence has rattled him and he no longer wants to serve as dasher...or some such thing...never can make out what he's saying with his mouth all full...

Re scoring on the last round: I think I only get 3 points instead of 4. I think maybe you counted Peace and Love as two people instead of one.

Balderdash Scoring
Point Of Order Sad Sad Sad Sad


Unless the rules have been change once again the Dasher can not pick up points on a bluff. The Dashers bluff is to confuse the other players.

Also the must be one correct answer which is not a bluff given by the dasher which one is it? Confused Confused Confused

Oh, and as to whether the dasher can earn points with a bluff - I was under the impression that the dasher could in fact earn points that way...

This is the way it's scored:

1. If you guess the correct definition, you get 2 points.
2. If someone guesses your definition, you get 1 point for each successful bluff.
3. If no one guesses the correct definition, the dasher gets 2 points.
4. Any player who submits an answer which is similar or very close to the correct answer earns 3 points.
5. A player who reaches exactly 13 points, automatically receives a double score for the NEXT round.
6. In our version of the game, the dasher may also submit a bluff definition.

IMPORTANT: If the dasher receives an answer from a player which is similar or very close to the correct meaning, he or she should not list this player's answer. Rather, the dasher should put the answer aside, automatically award 3 points to this player, listing the player's answer only after the round is over. That round will be played as usual (with one less answer), but the player who wrote the similar answer does not take part in the voting. Note: If the dasher receives more than one answer closely resembling the correct answer, the round is canceled and the dasher chooses a new word. However, each and every player who submits an answer closely resembling the correct answer still receives 3 points.

The definitions have to be submitted privately to the dasher, via PM, but the guessing will be done on the thread. When you guess, feel free to tell your reasoning, it makes the game more fun. Humor is welcome and encouraged.

Yeah, but since then I think we decided to allow the dasher to also post a bluff answer, for which they can receive points if someone chooses it.
