well, it seems that I'm guilty ... I brought this kind of game over to this board
now I wonder about the kind you play it

what I mean is, that there are about 5 (or more) different threads where everyone starts a new quiz
this is a little confusing IMHO

at the german forum there is a minimum of rules, but they make it more arranged:

one person started with the quiz
the person who found out the correct solution at first is up for the next quiz
it's on the person who started a quiz to confirm the correct solution - the game goes on after the confirmation

no prototype cars are allowed
no unique cars are allowed
no custom built cars are allowed

it's allowed to retouche license plates or brand crests


what do you think about this rules (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/idea.gif)

It's my fault....I started one for you, but it went beserk...


I all for the rules.


But it is such a fun game and for old retired people like Howie...it gives them something to look forward to besides their daily bowel movement.

Its all your fault (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/dry.gif) (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif)

I too think we should play by your German forum rules, it makes it much simpler and less confusing, and probably more entertaining because all of the cars actually get solved.

I vote for the rules, (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wink.gif) but if you step away from the game to use the head bring your own paper. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/huh.gif) I won't pass you a square.. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/laugh.gif)

Rules are good.

Someone needs to make the definitive thread on guesssing games.

BTW at this point no one has yet to guess my last one. HAH (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

Joe, Wolfgang is Austrian, not German (of course a lot of them said that after the war (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif) )

I'll go back to working on your car. Any Hints?

NOPE (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/biggrin.gif)

I'll admit it is a pretty hard one but certainly not a low run production car. Actually was very popular.

Little hint... the last year it was made was the first year that one of my cars was made.

Close. Not British.

I should have clarified. The last year this car was made was the first year in which the MODEL of a car I own was made. Not my exact car.
