I’ve never played this before, I’ve never been to Wasington DC. So now what?

Washington was just an example. Now we’re waiting for the lineup to fill, before we start the game for real. You can get a really good explanation of the rules [here](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=493410).

I vote for starting at 10, now that **wonderlust** has begged off.

Sounds good to me! Since most of us look like they’re logged on right now (or just have figured out a way to have a green blimp anyways), let’s have a roll call. Or I’ll just throw out the first statement in an hour or so and be expecting PM’s with the rest of yours’ at the same time?

Since I have to step away from the computer now, I’m posting my statement now:

Please follow the formatting rules:

**Never have I ever been to Washington DC**

If you have been to DC - post in green

If you’ve never been to DC - post in purple

Ya savvy?

Am I too late to join? (Some of us work all day, ya know!) And if so, could I wait until after Friday to answer the first question (because I’m going on Saturday!)

Can I join, too? (However, I’ll have limited online time in the next couple of days due to the Passover holiday. If you think that excludes me, that’s OK. I’m not a vengeful mod.)

I have been to Washington DC.

Sure!

\*\*Kittenblue \*\*and **C K Dexter Haven** , you can join in since we’ve barely started. And **Kittenblue** , since the aim of the game is to have as many squids in the end as possible, I think you want to answer before Saturday 🙂

I’ve so far gotten statements from:  
Chronos  
Really Not All That Bright  
Mahaloth  
Elendil’s Heir  
IvoryTowerDenizen

This leaves statements from:  
4: Hoopy Frood  
6: Ellen Cherry  
8: Clothahump  
10: BMalion  
11: kittenblue  
12: CK Dexter Haven

**Mahaloth** , yes! You post the answers here and send your statements to me. Just so that I can post them accordingly in a timely manner (in case someone isn’t around when it’s their turn to post a question).

And the persons who have yet to answer the first statement are:

4: Hoopy Frood  
6: Ellen Cherry  
8: Clothahump  
10: BMalion  
11: kittenblue

OK, still missing answers from:

6: Ellen Cherry  
8: Clothahump  
10: BMalion

But let’s fire off the second statement!

Mahaloth’s is:

**Never have I ever smoked marijuana.**

I give Mahaloth a doobie squid - for that one that the cute french girl “forced” upon me.
