Animal-Vegetable-Mineral-Abstract: The Pants Memorial Game
help
The chairperson selects an object/idea/whatever and announces whether it's animal, vegetable, mineral, and/or abstract. The others have to ask questions to figure out what it is. Whomever guesses the object correctly is given the chair for the next round; repeat ad nauseam.

A packet of Woodbine cigarettes?
At last! The answer is A CIGAR. Well done Raak.
*polite round of applause from the sudience*
cigars aren't orange!
Who said they were?
Thank you, thank you, and the next object is MINERAL.
is it an element?
Is it something made from a mineral substance, as opposed to the mineral itself?
Learning from the masters....
[Beth] No.
[Kim] It is something made.
Have been watching this recently, hope no-one minds if I join in! Is it hard?
In a word...
Well, yeah. But it seems you get better with practice.
Is it hard?
No, I meant is the object hard
Aah..
Well, I'll join in with that I think!
Is it a liquid?
[Uno] Yes, and therefore [Beth] No.
Is it something manufactured for a specific purpose?
Unashamedly nicking questions from Inkspot...
Is the finished item wholly of man made materials?
Does it have any practical use in someone's line of work?
Apologises and hangs head in shame for earlier ineptitude
Is it valuable?
[Beth] Yes.
[Inkspot] Yes.
[Uno] Not specifically: anyone would have a practical use for it.
[Lib] No. (Amused murmurs from audience.)
Is it manufactured from a single material (element, compound or mixture) or more than one?
Is it manufactured from a single material (element, compound or mixture)?
Oops
Is it Fool's Gold?
Except that's naturally occuring...
Did they have it between the years c.800 and c.1500?
Shamelessly carrying on with my question from the last round here. It was of no help then, it's probably of no help here.
Does it have a practical application?
You are most welcome Uno!
[Uno] Yes (it is either from either a single material or from more than one); No (not made from a single material).
[rab] No.
[Breadmaster] No.
[Btd] Yes (already had that one).
Is it a coin?
Used in the home?
Does it use electricity?
Is it made from a particular metal?
[Chalky] No.
[plump] Not specifically: it can be (and is) used almost anywhere.
[Btd] I had to look on the web to answer this: no.
[Inkspot] No.
Could you buy one in a typical hardware store?
[Riff] No.
To amplify my answer to Inkspot: it is made of metal, but while there are no doubt metals which are more or less well suited to the purpose, it is not part of its nature to actually be made of a particular metal.
Does it have moving parts?
