The Matching Game
Quizmaster:
(based on Simon's How are your friends? game from last year)
This game is new and exciting. Learn funky facts about your fellow Lemmingsforums posters!
Joining is simple! A list of questions are posted below. Simply PM me (the Quizmaster) with answers to all these questions.
After a week or so I will post all of the answers given, anonymously. Then your job is to try and match all the responses with who you think gave them (a list of who participated will also be given).
You'll get 1 point for a correct guess, 0 for incorrect guesses, this includes your own answers. You also needn't participated in the first part to make a guess in the second.
If you have any questions feel free to ask here in this thread.
-----------
1 - What is your favorite flavor of ice cream?
2 - what website (besides the Lemmings forum) do you visit most often?
3 - What did the three wise men bring to baby Jesus?
4 - If you could choose any profession to suddenly do (isntead of your current one) what would it be?
5 - What video game character best describes you?
6 - Pop quiz, hotshot: There's a bomb on a bus, full of passengers traveling down a highway in a busy U.S. City. The bus's number is 2525. If the bus goes over 50 MPH, the bomb is armed. If it then goes below 50, it blows up. Now what do you do?
Participating members so far: 11
Ramon:
Wow, the Quizmaster is back!! Was about time.
Quizmaster:
5 people joined so far, more can join, come and have fun!
I want to clarify a few things:
-you may change your answer to any (or all) the questions up until the second phase starts.
-The Quizmaster may participate in the first phase, but not the second phase (for obvious reasons).
ccexplore:
A wild (and possibly not very good) idea for the second part: what do you think about having people also match responses to "QuizMaster" in addition to the actual list of participants (in which QuizMaster's actual identity is listed)? Basically for each question, there will be one response that the player will match to both an actual person in the list, as well as to "QuizMaster", each scored separately for the 1 point if correct. If a player is sure they know who the QuizMaster is (and probably at least one person actually does due to communication of passwords), they could choose to consistently match responses accordingly, but then they are basically double-betting on the accuracy of their response-matchings for QuizMaster, so even then it may not actually be an advantage compared to those who don't know who the QuizMaster is. You are not required to be consistent from question to question in picking whose answer to match to "QuizMaster".
(If the QuizMaster abstains from phase 1, then the only fair scoring is that no one gets any points for their matches to QuizMaster. I considered somehow letting people guess whether QuizMaster abstained in lieu of matching a response to QuizMaster, but this doesn't work since someone may know for sure who the QuizMaster is and therefore will also know whether he/she participated in phase 1.)
Nepster:
There is one main problem with this suggestion: Everyone following IRC somewhat closely (or reading through the logs) does know the Quizmaster's identity.
