I haven't run a game in ~forever & this is a pretty silly one to start with, but what the hell.

Me & a friend accidentally ended up in a conversation about a certain state being in the bottom 15 in terms of visitability, so the idea of this game is for people to rank ALL the states (+Washington DC) from most visitable to least visitable (1-51, but no need to #).

The basic premise being you are going to take like a 10 day vacation to this state at whatever time of year you want, & any place in the state you want.

Once I get the lists, and compile them, there will be a few games to be played. You can research for the initial list part, I just ask that you don't exactly copy some list from the internet if such a list exists.

You will still be able to play the other games if you don't submit a list, but there will be participation points given for those who do submit an initial list, plus you will have a bit more information.

Alphabetical list of states:

Alaska

Delaware

So let me get this straight. There are 51 states to consider. You want the bottom 15 visitable states in order (least visitable on the bottom)?

Is there any benefit to trying to match others?

No - for this 1st round I'd like it if people just gave their honest opinions. The only points will be for participation.

There will be chances to do guesstimania/SHEEP & maybe some other stuff later once the data is compiled.

5 so far, plus mine & my friends' lists. Plus he turned this into a work challenge such he'll be doing some $tat$ on soon, so if you want to be part of that data set, get a list in by Sunday night.

Will keep the current deadline for this game, & also be using the lists he gets for the data set for the games that will follow.

I take it that you can go around and hit different spots in the state? Like you're not limited to one Hawaiian island for the full 10 days if you don't want to be?
