Just One, Part Tres - Puzzles and Other Games Forum

Sign up here if you want to play the next round of Just One. Prior round was here: https://forumserver.twoplustwo.com/5...hread-1744378/

Commitment is to open one pm/day and send back a 1-word clue for each of the 7(TBD) words that are sent to you. Every so often you'll be the guesser instead and will just post your guess for the 7 words based on the clues posted.

We'll do that for about 3 weeks usually during weekdays only since POG apparently closes down on weekends.

Sign up below.

Rules description from original game:

It’s a cooperative game but we can split it into teams to bring a little more competition to it.

To play the game, everyone but one person is given the secret word for that round. Then everyone submits a 1-word clue to that secret word. The mod removes any duplicate words and posts the unique clues and the one person then guesses the secret word.

If correct, we get a point; if wrong we lose a point; if isn’t sure of the word, they can pass on guessing and get 0 points for us

We do that for 13 words, rotating who is the guesser each time and try to get as close to 13 points as possible.

Now it may turn out that this is too easy for this group, in which case we can modify the rules to make it harder like we did with Codenames.

Example:
Secret Word: Turtle

Clues submitted:
Ninja
Tortoise
Slow
Shell
Tortoise
Ninja

Ninja and tortoise were duplicated so would be thrown out and the guesser would be given the clues:

Slow
Shell

They’d then either guess turtle (1 point) or snail (-1 point) or pass (0 points).

Post if you want to try it.

count me in.

my preference is teams (like round 1) rather than mixing it up each turn (like round 2).

Yeah, feel free to post in support of teams (first time) or random (last time) or even some other scheme (eg round robin so even distribution of who you clue with)

Doesn’t matter to me
