Ok, it’s been awhile since the last one and I really enjoyed it. And since I don’t have that much else on my hands at the moment I figured I could handle it, if anyone else wants to play 🙂

The rules are the same as last time. 1 point/kitten/viking/beer for a yes in the first round, 3 for one in the second and 5 in the sudden death last round (which means noone gets any new ones).

However, I’ll humbly request that everyone submits their questions before each round starts we we won’t have to wait for it.

And let’s keep it clean in the first round - then anything goes.

So here goes nothing:

1: WormTheRed  
2  
3  
4  
5  
6  
7  
8

I’m in…but can someone give me an overview of what I have to do?

Sounds fun, but you have some ‘splainin’ to do! At least it sounds like 19 rounds of something dirty, no?

It’s an easy game.

You post a statement of something you haven’t done, ie:

Never Have I Ever Been to Washington DC

Then everyone who has been to DC gives you a point. And round and round it goes. The one with the most points after three rounds wins and when you run out of points you’re out.

And sorry about forgetting to explain the rules.

So we have:

1: WormTheRed  
2: Mahaloth  
3  
4  
5  
6  
7  
8  
9

13  
14

Nah, just three rounds. But if we get to 20 players that’s at least 40 “Never Have I Ever” statements.

At least 40 since you won’t be gaining any points in the last round, you only loose.

So now we have:

1: WormTheRed  
2: Mahaloth  
3: wonderlust  
4  
5  
6  
7  
8  
9

All 20 rounds in one evening? How much forum babysitting is required? Okay, simulposting.

I hope I’m not the only female…

Noooo… it’ll take as long as it takes. The last games went on for quite awhile.

And the reason I want all the questions in at the beginning is last time, some people weren’t online as much as others, and it became quite the waiting game between questions.

Here’s a link for the first [game](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=493410), which explaines the rules a bit more.
