How are your friends? Quizmaster game!
« on: August 26, 2016, 12:59:05 AM »
Hi,

this game is new and exciting. Learn funky facts about your fellow Lemmingsforums posters!

Rules

The game has 3 phases.

1. Sign-up: Post in this topic to join. Sign-up was open until Friday, September 2, 22:00 UTC. It's over now.

2. Secret answering: When sign-up is over, you receive a private message (PM) from the quizmaster, with funny questions about the other players. Send your answers back via PM to the quizmaster. If you don't know the other players too well, guess -- there is no penalty for getting anything right or wrong.

3. Matching: The quizmaster removes all associations of question-subject and question-answer, then makes a public post with all answers. Everybody tries to match subjects to answers. Send your guess to the quizmaster via PM. How many can you get right?

Example

geoo, Akseli, and Icho sign up.

The quizmaster sends PMs:
geoo gets "What Lemmings 2 tribe does Akseli like best?" and secretly replies "Sports", because Akseli is a muscular adonis guy.
Akseli gets "What Lemmings 2 tribe does Icho like best?" and secretly replies "Medieval", a wild guess.
Icho gets "What Lemmings 2 tribe does geoo like best?" and secretly replies "Cavelem", maybe because geoo likes the music.

Now the quizmaster posts: "We have 3 entrants, geoo, Akseli, and Icho. Match them to their favorite L2 tribes: Medieval, Cavelem, Sports."

Everybody PMs the quizmaster, trying to get the matchings right. Icho knows that geoo-Cavelem is correct, because Icho submitted that himself. Still, Icho must now match the remaining players, Akseli and Icho, with Medieval and Sports. What Icho likes in reality is irrelevant -- important is what the random community member thinks that Icho likes.

In reality, we play several questions at once.

I've sent PMs to all participants for phase 2, the secret answering.

Don't post answers here. Reply to the quizmaster by private message.

I've got all 9 replies! I'll prepare the matching now. That will be a long post. I don't want to split it into several rounds, because everybody is keen to see all the answers.

I don't know whether the matching should be answered in public or by PM. Ideas? Public can be more interesting.

I say PM (to avoid later responders being able to draw off earlier responder's answers, even subconciously), but revealed when all answers are in. :)
