How to Play

The rules for each round are below. Calculation and reporting of scores is on the honor system.

Rules for Round 1

Example of the Format

  1. You will need to find the connection between the 4 clues. Each clue is revealed by opening the spoiler tags in the post for each.
  2. You get one guess, and the goal is to use as few clues as possible.
  3. Clues are given out one at a time, and you should only reveal the next clue if you cannot make the connection with the clues given so far.
  4. Each additional clue reduces the points earned to the value indicated above it. e.g. if you get the answer after the third clue is revealed, you will receive only two points.
  5. The later clues are usually easier to reveal the connection with the last clue sometimes being obvious.
Rules for Round 2
  1. In this round, each set of four clues forms a sequence. Up to three clues can be revealed, and you are responsible for determining the last clue in the sequence.
  2. As before, clues are revealed one at a time, and the goal is to correctly identify the last item in the sequence using as few clues as possible.
  3. A bonus point is awarded for correctly identifying the connection between the items in the completed sequence .

    Round 1: 0 points but a loud groan (in a good way)

    Round 2: 0 points

    I don’t think I actually paid much attention to Discovery, when I’ve watched it.

      Yeah, doing the “sequences” round has proven to be more challenging that I thought. I may phase those out if I keep doing these and just do two “find the connection” ones.

      Most of the sequences I come up with are super easy or so obscure that it’s just not fun even trying to guess. lol

    Fuck, I didn’t see these before and for a hot second thought it was a new British panel show (but then Victorias age gave it away :().

    Still, these are great!
