mc5 - Animal-Vegetable-Mineral-Abstract: The Pants Memorial Game

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.

Kim

Not tonight......

[Dujon] Guess we'll have to wait until later to get the answer to that one...

Inkspot

Was she a Kings mistress?

Come now Dujon you can't slip away from the chair that easily.

Toby

[Bm] Yes.
[Raak] Yes!
[Dujon] No.
[Inkspot] No.

Kim

Hot potato!

Was she an Emperor's wife?

Raak

Hildegard of Bingen?

Toby

[Raak] Indeed, yes! Woo-hoo. We have a winner!
As for the "married to a monarch" - nuns are, I believe, considered to be married to God, who is considered to be the King of Heaven...

Is the time difference a huge problem? I've had the fun of chairing now, and am happy to yield in future if it works better that way. (But I'm still going to guess.)

Audience

understands all in a blinding flash of inspiration, but then has a migraine and has to lie down.....

Raak

The next object is MINERAL

Dujon

Is it man made?

Re: previous. In retrospect that was somewhat presumptious of me - I was feeling confident. :-( ... *chuckles at self* ... Hildegard and Josephine, as people, couldn't be much further apart!

Toby

Is it stone?

Breadmaster

Is it metal?

Ah yes, Hildegard of Bingen - interesting fact: she wrote the first known description of the female orgasm. Only thing I know about her, except that she suffered from migraines and invented an imaginary language.
