Caryl Posted April 13, 2002 Report Share Posted April 13, 2002 Pegasus suggested a game of Name That Fish and suggested somone start the ball rolling. Well, I will take up his challenge and give it a go. Here are his rules: 1. Poster gives the first clue and how many attempts are to be allowed (not class, or sub class, but possibly region only or something). 2. Each member then gets one question eg Is it a catfish? Is is a bottom dweller? 3. The same member cannot ask two questions in a row but may follow after another person has asked. 4. The poster can only answer Yes or No but may say if the member is getting 'warmer' or 'colder'. 5. The fish must be a freshwater or brackish species and still available to aquarists, either here or overseas, with recognition in fish books or magazine. Think of games like "20 Questions" and "What's My Line?" (those old enough to remember black and white TV!) and you will get the idea. Don't know how this will go but.... I am an egglayer and you will be allowed 20 questions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
