~Andrea~ Posted October 3, 2012 Posted October 3, 2012 So I discovered this game recently called breakfast combo. Basically someone thinks of a thing (a relatively specific thing e.g. a cup of tea, the statue of liberty, Price Harry, a vase of flowers) It can be anything, living, dead, animal, vegetable, mineral or a mix. Then you have to guess what it is by making random guesses which have replies in one of two possible forms: It's more like X than anything else you've said so far It's more like Y than X, but like X it.... So for example if I'm thinking of a marmite sandwich and someone guesses a lightbulb, I say: It's more like a lightbulb than anything else you've said so far Then if someone guesses bathroom I have to decide whether it's more like a bathroom or the last thing that was more like it than any previous guess so I could either say: It's more like a bathroom than anything else you've said so far OR It's more like a lightbulb than a bathroom, but like a bathroom it's made up of different components. Make sense? Anyone want to guess what I'm thinking? Quote
Michelle Posted October 3, 2012 Posted October 3, 2012 I'm not sure, but I'll try... Is it a cat? Quote

~Andrea~ Posted October 4, 2012 Author Posted October 4, 2012 It's more like a cat than a bowl but like a bowl it has curves Quote
~Andrea~ Posted October 4, 2012 Author Posted October 4, 2012 It's more like a sculpture than anything else said so far Quote
~Andrea~ Posted October 4, 2012 Author Posted October 4, 2012 It's more like a sculpture than a statue but like a statue it is nice to look at Quote
~Andrea~ Posted October 4, 2012 Author Posted October 4, 2012 It's more like a sculpture than a vase but like a vase it has water in it. Quote
~Andrea~ Posted October 4, 2012 Author Posted October 4, 2012 It's more like a bird bath than anything else that's been said so far Quote

~Andrea~ Posted October 4, 2012 Author Posted October 4, 2012 Is it an ornamental pond? (Boy, this is infuriating!!!!) it's more like an ornamental pond than anything else said so far Is it a public water (fountain) sculpture. it's more like a fountain than anything else said so far Is it a fish tank? it's more like a fountain than a fish tank but like a tank of fish it's colourful hehehe Hint (just because it's more like something than anything else said so far doesn't mean it's very like that thing - sometimes a completely random guess that seems unrelated to previous guesses can shed a whole heap of light) Quote
~Andrea~ Posted October 5, 2012 Author Posted October 5, 2012 Is it a rainbow? Yes!! well done Michelle. LOL - is it bigger than a breadbasket hehe actually you're not allowed questions ABOUT the thing, only what it might be. Anyone else want to have a go at thinking of something for us to guess? Quote
Kylie Posted October 5, 2012 Posted October 5, 2012 Should it be Michelle's turn next because she guessed it right? (Unless she'd like to pass.) Quote
