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.

Conversation?
Meeting and greeting?
V random guess as my mind is now going 'aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaargh...'
Surfing the web?
I think I meant ....Surfing the 'net?
Wot about mine?
See above -- a greeting?
rab, close, very close, but its bigger than that. Conversation is a form of this.
ZK, as for rab.
Chalky, getting cooler.
Raak, sorry must have been a simulpost, you weren't there before. A greeting is part of this but it's the bigger picture I'm after.
Simply 'talking'?
Socializing?
rab, talking is certainly a form of this, but expand the idea.
Raak, socialising is again only a small part.
A conference?
Brain still v much in the argh department, but it's worth a try.
celebrating Christmas/
getting increasingly random
Society?
ZK, not a conference. People actually do this at a conference.
ZK, nothing to do with Christmas per se.
Raak, the 'conversation' tack was closer.
Communication?
aaah
sounds good to me rab!
Victorious rab
Crowd goes wild!.well done rab. Communication was precisely the word I was looking for.
Well done rab :-)
Intercourse!
Well, I wasn't that far wrong then, was I? Nice one, Rab.
Back in the chair.
Ok, to complete the set, this one's ANIMAL.
Colymbosathon ecplecticos?
Is that the dead fish with a big cock? Well, a humourist might make a connection.... but no.
Human animal?
Is it a reptile?
[Bob and Inkspot] Human.
Living?

I think either Bob or Inkspot's going to get this one :)...

[Bob] Straight answer: yes.
[Inkspot] No, but there are some murmerings in the audience.

From a particular country?
A particular group of musicians?
[Chalky] Yes, but Inkspot was closer with the previous question.
[Inkspot] No.
Glaswegians?
A group of NIMBY's? ;)
[Raak, Inkspot] No.

Maybe I should clarify - it's not a name given to people from a particular city or town, but they are associated with a particular city or town.

Pie-eaters?
Manchester United fans?
[Inkspot, Chalky, Bob the dog] No.

[ZK] No.
Is it a midlands city?
Is it in England?
[Dazed5] Yes, so...
[Raak] yes.
Are they a group of workers?
*Geography of England never was my strong point, (now if it was Wales!) off to find out where Strattford and potteries are, see you at work tommorrow!*
[Inkspot] They were.
The West Bromwich Seven?
The [some place] [some number]?
No, can't be, given the answer to Dazed5 a moment ago.
The [some place] [some collective concept that is not a number]?
Is it a Guild?
Someone in my office said Coventry was once a thiving wool town with a Cappers Guild - nothing to do with checking the tyre pressure at Longbridge then!
Anything to do with Stoke on Trent?
[Chalky] Does that exist? There might be a connection to something along these lines.
[Raak, 2nd question] Yes.
[Inkspot] Nope.
[Lib] Maybe, but not primarily.
Is there a connection to the Longbridge car plant?
Feels generally very close...
[Dazed5] No, you're getting colder.
Would it be The Birmingham Six, by any chance?
Like moths to the flame....
Duuuuh!
Retraction, given the answer to Dazed5's question some while ago.
Are any of them still alive?
Is it a collective name for a group of towns associated with pottery ?
Is it anything to do with the armed forces?
Staffordshire?
[Kim] You shouldn't retract, because you're getting warmer.
[Raak] I should think so.
[Inkspot] No.
[Ibid] Not the armed forces.
[Lib] No.
Is this a group it is possible to join?
A particular part of the police?
[Raak] Not any more, I think.
[Inkspot] Yes! I think we're nearly there...
