Buckwheat Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 Welcome to the "Guess the Owner" game! :) Thinking about the Handwriting Game from last year, I got an idea for a similar one, with the same purpose to get to know our fellow forumers a bit better and to have lots of fun. The difference between this and the other game is that instead of the author of handwriting samples, you will be guessing who the owner of certain objects is. The rules are simpleYou upload a photo of an object you own on a picture hosting site of your choosing (imgur, imageshack, photobucket, flickr, postimage ... ) and send the direct link to the photo to me by PM. I will post the links on this thread with clues to the owner's identity. You try to guess which forumer has sent a particular submission. You are allowed to guess even if you have not sent an entry and you are allowed to send an entry, but decide not to guess. After the owner is guessed, he/she is free to share an explanation/story behind the object if he/she so chooses. I will be accepting entries until there is interest for guessing.Rules as to what objects qualifyThe object you submit for the other posters to guess the owner of can be anything that you have and in some way signifies you - it will act as a clue to your identity.Safe for kids, safe for work rule applies.The photo can have more than one object on it.You can make the clue as easy or as difficult as possible.Examples:If you have posted plenty of times that you do tap-dancing, and then post a photo of your tap-dancing shoe, it will be a dead giveaway.If you are the only Italian who often posts in Forum Games and post a photo of your Italian copy of A Game of Thrones, it will be easy too.If you have never talked to any other poster about your knitting passion and then post a photo of a lovely scarf kintted by yourself, it will be tougher to guess.If you post a photo of a generic pencil or a loaf of bread, nobody will get it and I will probably ask you to reconsider your choice of the object.

Adara Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 This is a nice idea :) should we sign up here? If so: *sign up* I'm in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckwheat Posted September 10, 2014 Author Share Posted September 10, 2014 No, you do not have to post especially to sing up, since by that you are revealing that you sent something and it is an additional clue that we do not need. :) You can join in with the game at any moment. And welcome to the game, of course! I already have a few submissions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Buckwheat Posted September 10, 2014 Author Share Posted September 10, 2014 Damnit, still need a camera. Borrow it? Or you have a camera on the phone? I will post the first riddle shortly, so watch this space! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The BlackBear Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 My phone is old. Very old. Plus the last time I plugged it into a computer it wiped my phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckwheat Posted September 10, 2014 Author Share Posted September 10, 2014 All right, one of the participants sent me two pictures at once: Item 1 and item 2. Clue: The poster has joined this forum before season 2 of GOT. Guess away and good luck. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clue: The poster has joined this forum before season 2 of GOT. Guess away and good luck. :) My guess is Lady Olenna. My reasoning - she joined before Season 2 (which I found out due to good old fashioned stalking of her profile page) and her avatar is a cat, similar to item 1 :p Bad reasoning, but somebody had to take the plunge and guess first Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First of My Name Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 Is it Adara? She's the only other one I'm aware of that's playing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Buckwheat Posted September 10, 2014 Author Share Posted September 10, 2014 Is it Adara? She's the only other one I'm aware of that's playing... It is not Adara. And as you do not need up for playing in a post or do anything else, it can be anybody who posts in Forum Games often enough to be recognised. Like in the handwriting game. Actually all the entries I have right now are from people who have not yet posted in this thread. Hint 2: The poster is female. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This one? I'll say Gillio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I take that as a compliment :) My husband made that shield for our wedding (and his too). They are our SCA coats of arms. mine was (obviously?) inspired my tattoo.
