mc5 - King AVMA the III

Tuj

Does it begin with P?

No faffing.

Raak

[Tuj] Does not begin with P.

Tuj

Is it unique?

Tis better to bounce than flounce.

Raak

[Tuj] The less misleading answer is no, not unique. (A pedant in the audience gets to his feet and begins, "Actually..." The chair cuts him off with, "We've read that Wikipedia article too, and yes, you have a point, but the answer stands.")

Bismarck

The fossil of a conodont tooth?

Raak

[Bismarck] Not that Wikipedia article.
(Addendum to previous) But on the other hand it is a definite specific thing.

Tuj

Is it entirely metal?

Rosie

A prosthetic device?

Raak

[Tuj] Entirely non-metal.
[Rosie] Not a prosthetic.

Chalky

Is it a building?

Raak

[Chalky] Not a building.

Tuj

Would it float?

Raak

The very original of it that the pedant above tried to bring up might indeed float. But the thing is otherwise not something that can float or sink.

Raak

I am also thinking that "yes" and "no" are both misleading answers to the uniqueness question.

Bismarck

Recap

So far we know that it doesn't begin with 'P', isn't metallic and not a building.

Bismarck

Does this represent an animal?

Bismarck

Is it made out of wood?

Tuj

Is it smaller than a toaster?

And, if Bismarck is declaring this a double round: Are you regretting your selection yet?

Raak

[B] Yes! Partly, it does represent an animal.
[B] No! It is not made of wood.
[T] It could be smaller or larger than a toaster.
[T] Not yet. Maybe if we're still on this by Christmas.

Simons Mith

Is it a heraldic device?

Raak

[SM] Not an heraldic device.
