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.

(Inkspot, Kim) At Pants the seemingly accepted rules were: One question at a time: The answer has to be yes or no, but helpful hints were allowed: No limit to the length of the game; it goes on until someone gets the answer. Don't forget the original '50s rules in that Animal covers everything from a Siberian tiger to a pound of sausages or a leather jacket, though the last has some Mineral in it. Similarly Veg & Min.

Inkspot - in particular, yes. Kim - no.

Raak

Is it an item of jewellery?

Wol

Solid (at normal pressure/temperature)?

BTW - I hope it's OK to have more than one question 'open' at a time. Otherwise, this one might just take a lifetime ...

Inkspot

Is it extra terrestrial?

What I mean is the astral stuff that falls out of the sky like meteors or moon rock, Is there a proper word for that type of geology?

Lib

Would I like to own lots of it?

Hello, wondering in on preceedings if that's ok with you all. But wandering off again to go to my nice new posh (and rather expensive!) gym.

Raak - no. Wol - yes. Inkspot - no. Lib - Probably not.
