THE BALDERDASH BLOG!: The first game starts tomorrow!

So if you emailed me already, check your email, because you should have some kind of notification email so that you can confirm yourself as a contributor. If you haven't emailed me and you want to play... you better get on it! Daniel, I know you're reading this, that means you! I know you're only working 4 hours tomorrow. Uncle David, you too!!

I'm getting super anxious, so as I said... the first game starts tomorrow! I have the day off, so maybe I should try and post in the morning.

IT'S THE FINAL COUNTDOWN!!!
(do do dooo doo... do do dodo doooo)

How To Play

The order for whose turn it is to pick a word to define will be in the sidebar under the heading "Who's playing?". When it's your turn, your name will be underlined, and in bold capital letters. If it is your turn, find an obscure word for everyone to try and define and make a post with just that word and your email address on the Balderdash blog. If you have the Balderdash board game at home, that's even better, because you can just pick one from there. Everyone else will have a day or two to send you an email with their made-up definition. After the time is up, you edit your post, listing all of the definitions, including the right one. Make sure that you aren't writing names on them, and try to fix any spelling or grammatical errors so everything is consistent. And then everyone will write a comment and vote on which one they think is the right one. You get one point if someone guesses yours, and two points if you guess the right one. There will be a tally of the points in the sidebar under "Who's playing?" (I can keep a tally of the points). We'll set a date that each game goes for, and at the end of that time frame, whoever has the most points WINS!

Sounds great, right?

Don't forget how the points work:

1 point to each player for every vote of his/her definition.
2 points to a player chooses the real definition.
3 points to the reader if no one chooses the real definition
3 points if someone submits a definition similar to the real one.

The first game starts tomorrow!
