| Please read the following Round 2 instructions carefully;
Each member of teams can answer as many times as they want, though after three strikes (wrong answers) the team turn will be over.
With this alternative, the matches will be open for one day only. When marking, if three wrong answers are come across, then Elfie will cease reading the rest of the answers and hand the last answer chance (as above) over to the opposing team. If they get 1 answer right (with their chosen 1 person) then they steal all of the points gained. If not, the playing team will keep the points gained.
The steel works as follows;
To steal, the opposing group must confer with one another and elect 1 member to give their answer. They can only have 1 guess at the remaining answers (no matter how many are still left). If they obtain 1 remaining answer, then they steal all the housepoints uncovered. If not, the playing team will keep the points they uncovered.
The Gamble can still come into play if the oposing team wishes to choose this option rather than guess the remaining answer. The gamble works as follows;
Opposing team can either do as said above, or gamble and take the remaining questions points only without having to guess. The playing team will still keep their uncovered points in this decider.
This thread is for E.L.F V The Riddles
E.L.F - You are the playing team 1st.
Your question is as follows;
Name the top 5 given animals many people are afraid of
You will have one day to answer, remembering how this works (see above) When the one day closes, Elfie will put up the correct list and play will pass over to Riddles who can choose to steel or gamble. You will have only a short time for your 1 player to post. Once this has happened, Elfie will then give XD=aholics their question (same play time as above) with Tic Tacs then choosing to steel or gamble before the match ends and scores are updated.
Good luck | |
