ARTICULATEY - A NEW GAME?
Argon0 (50 and feeling it - back for a bit) Started conversation Jan 11, 2002
An Articulate style game - where the idea is to describe something (idea/action/place/person/thing/etc...) without mentioning any of the words in the title/name, or indicating which letter of the alphabet it begins with, or saying (directly) that it rhymes with something (thus to describe a bee you CAN'T say - begins with the 2nd letter of the Alphabet, and rhymes with Sea, but COULD say - Yellow and black striped, small, flies, rhymes with a large body of water, not an ocean....)..
So first one:
Its a Person....
two names
1st name has two parts:
1st part - sound a Raygun makes, second what a builder crries bricks on
2nd name
3 parts
1st: another name for Auntie, the TV organisation
2nd: French for male the
3rd: Part of New York withouth the n....
I think that future clues should be broken up more - with max of two clues per posting....
Any comments/criticisms (be nice 
, or I'll 
)...

Argon0 (50 and feeling it - back for a bit) Posted Jan 17, 2002
Is it a book?
By Ben Elton?
(p.s. the idea of the original game is to get as many as you can as quickly as you can, obtuseness is frowned upon - I'm not saying that's how it should be here mind! It seems to be going quite well as is...)
