ASOIAF Phrase Guessing Game #2

Recommended Posts

Welcome to the second edition of the ASOIAF phrase guessing game!

There are many commonly used phrases in the books and there are house words. The person who is "it" (I'll get to that in a minute) will pick a phrase or house words from the books and give out the number of words in it.

Players will then ask for a letter: e.g. "Is there an E?"

The response will look like this for a 6 word phrase (from the last phrase of the previous edition):

1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
6. e, e

No:

As long as the letter you ask for is in the phrase, you can keep asking and keep getting answers.

When you hit a "no" (which is also useful info, btw), it will take two 2 player requests to reveal another letter. If you get 2 straight "no"s it will take 3 requests.

When you feel that you know the phrase, you can guess immediately.

If you are right, you choose the next phrase.

All you have to reveal is the number of words in the phrase.

So for example, if your phrase is "winter is coming" and you are asked "Is there an E?", your response is:

1. e

2.

3.

also keep track of the "no" letters.

this keeps a simple accounting of what has been revealed and where. Do not reveal the length of the words - that would make most phrases too easy to get.

Last first edition of the game involved a bit of trial and error. So if you would like to see how it went, best to look at the later pages of it: phrase guessing game #1

Have fun!

Is there an E?



Also, HC, can you keep a list of already guessed phrases somewhere (in the OP maybe), so we do not repeat the same ones over and over? Or are we allowed to use the ones that were already used to mess with the guessers' heads? :P
