mc5 - Wizards' Duel

I think I'll just repeat what I said in the chat:

You have two teams of wizards. In order to make a move you must change shape into a creature or thing that beats, defeats or otherwise trumps whatever the other side has just changed into. So you might get a sequence like

Wizards: Elephant
Witches: Mouse
Wizards: Cat
Witches: Dog
Wizards: B - A - T - H
Witches: Telephone

at which point I have to admit I'm stumped so presumably the witches win that round.

Coca-cola and a slice of lime

[Just a thought] If Coca-cola "beats" Single Malt, this iteration of the game has no winning move. I'm not much of a drinker and I loathe scotch, but I can't make a case for Coke beats Glen Invercockileekie other than in the most narrow circumstances.

[SM] I was thinking much the same thing myself. Perhaps we should give this round to the Azure team?

Sierra Mike

Okay with me.

CdM

[SM^2] No, I think you missed my point. Coca-cola and lime defeats single malt by being mixed with it.

Sierra Mike

[CdM] Ah. But that introduces another quandry, namely: is the next move supposed to beat "Coca Cola and a slice of lime" or "Single Malt mixed with Coca Cola and a slice of lime"?

CdM

[SM} Presumably the wizard that had previously taken the form of single malt now has to change into something else, so it is just the Coca-cola + lime that needs to be defeated,

Simons Mith

Puce

All right then, rum and coca cola.

Sierra Mike

*Bewildered* With, or without, a slice of lime?:/

A ten-tonne lime come on, draw a line under it!
