Title: Name that Character!!
Post by: Brandon Collins on July 18, 2007, 03:59:02 AM
So, the object of the game is to guess the character that I'm thinking of. I'll give the first clue, and then everyone will ask a question to retrieve more information. Once you think you know who it is, take a guess. The first person who gets it right continues the tradition....

Clue #1: This person lived at Collinwood at one point.

I don't have a guess or a question, but I do want to commend Brandon on coming up with this game. It's great!  [thumb]  And it even has the potential to go on far longer than even the Alphabet Game has because there are hundreds of DS characters to choose from.

Also, we request that future players follow Brandon's lead and list the clues to the character in question in each one of their responses. That way the clues are readily available without having to search through past posts, and each previous list of clues can be deleted from the game once the latest list has been posted, just as we do with Midnite's list in the Alphabet Game so as to save server space and avoid redundancy.  :)

I just want to say thanks to MB for those kind words about the game! I've seen it around on other DS groups, so I thought here would be a great place to transplant it!

Also, I was going to point this out when someone guessed what character I was thinking of correctly, but I suppose I'll just do it now. In the future of this game, if you don't want to think of a character for the game, you can use a place, an object, an actor, etc. Just make sure that you specify what it is. Like if you were going to use an object, you'd say "This object can be found in the Collinwood drawing room". Same for the other things.

**Pay close attention to the clues!

She did not die on the show.

Actually, Spoiler:
Amanda found herself in the stopping off place-- an early stage of death-- twice, but because Mr. Best/"death" was a sucker for eyelashes, or something, she was given a total of 3 additional chances to live but after blowing the last one (no pun intended), she died permanently (and for some of us, quite memorably) in 1970.
