The Set Game II: Members Only

[Zack]

Link to the original.

For those of you who have not played this before, a concise description:

At the beginning of each round, the GM defines the set, or a rule which is used to determine the members of a set.

For example:

Rule: Any word which starts with the letter "A".

Thus "apple" is part of the set; "pear" is not.

The rest of the players have to guess this rule by making a post with these three contents:

1. A guess of the rule.
2. A guess of a member.
3. A guess of a nonmember.

For example, DarkFang may post this:

Rule: Words that begin with "L".
Member: Love
Nonmember: Hatred.

GMs have to update the list as players move along. Whoever guesses the rule correctly can be the next GM.

[Zack]

NinjaCow got it.

 

[SamSniped]

This seems fun.

 

[Nintz]

For the record, I believe that putting AoE3 in that group is rather misleading. While it certainly wasn't the masterpiece previous games were, it wasn't a "bad" game by any definition of the word. Basically, a 8-8.5 where previous ones were 9+ easily.

Anyway, looking forward to NinjaCow's list.

 

[KaiserElectric]

I remember this game. Hopefully it's as good now as it was then.
