Since most people didn’t hate the pilot episode, I put together a second. Both rounds are in the same post this time.

How to Play

The rules for each round are below. Calculation and reporting of scores is on the honor system.

Rules for Round 1

Example of the Format

  1. You will need to find the connection between the 4 clues. Each clue is revealed by opening the spoiler tags in the post for each.
  2. You get one guess, and the goal is to use as few clues as possible.
  3. Clues are given out one at a time, and you should only reveal the next clue if you cannot make the connection with the clues given so far.
  4. Each additional clue reduces the points earned to the value indicated above it. e.g. if you get the answer after the third clue is revealed, you will receive only two points.
  5. The later clues are usually easier to reveal the connection with the last clue sometimes being obvious.
Rules for Round 2
  1. In this round, each set of four clues forms a sequence. Up to three clues can be revealed, and you are responsible for determining the last clue in the sequence.
  2. As before, clues are revealed one at a time, and the goal is to correctly identify the last item in the sequence using as few clues as possible.
  3. A bonus point is awarded for correctly identifying the connection between the items in the completed sequence .

    This is gonna sound like I’m full of shit, but 5 each. After yesterday’s trial runs, I kinda tuned into the sideways thinking of the game. The recent run through of DS9 didn’t hurt either. This will never happen again.

      Oh I believe you. Like you said, once you pick up on the sideways thinking of how the game is structured, it becomes much easier.
