Mastermind?
Baryonic Being - save GuideML out of a word-processor: A7720562 Started conversation Nov 3, 2003
This will most probably end up at the very end of the 10 and a half thousand other discussions in this forum, and it might already have been done and gone there by somebody else's making, but I thought this might possibly be vaguely humorous for a couple of posts:
If you have seen the famous Two Ronnies Mastermind sketch then you will see how fun the quiz show can be. Is it, then, feasible for us to instigate our own version of Mastermind, but instead of answering the question next posted, answer the question before it?
E.g. Somebody says: What is your name?
Who is the Prime Minister of Australia?
Baryonic Being.
Who is the richest man in the world?
John Howard.
And so on, where the person who gets a question right may ask the next question. Whether it will work or not I haven't a clue, but remember my attempt when it gets to number 10 501.
I suppose we might end up learning something.
I shall start by asking: What is your name?
