Okay, bear with me here while I try to explain this. The object of the game is to find triads. A triad is a group of three things that are related by three qualities, but only two at a time. Confused? Here’s an example:
The movies: Pulp Fiction, Jackie Brown, and Get Shorty.
The qualities:
Features John Travolta (PF, GS)
Directed by Quentin Tarentino (PF, JB)
Based on Elmore Leonard books (JB, GS)
Unfortunately, that’s the only example I have at hand. Assuming this thread doesn’t just crash and burn, hopefully enough people got it to provide further examples.
Question #1: Are we supposed to:
a. Provide the answer,
b. “Spoiler” the answer, OR
c. Not provide the answer & wait 'til someone get the answer right and earns a chance to provide the next Triad?
Question #2: [JHS Student] Is there extra credit if we can turn the triad into a quadrilateral, pentagon, hexagon, heptagon, octagon, nonagon or decagon by hinding more than 3 features shared by 2 of the 3 submissions?
The Political Triad:
Which should go over like a fart in church in the MPSIMS forum

Chuck Hagel
Ben Nelson
2 Are Senators from Nebraska (#2 & #3)
2 Are Class I Democrats with the same last name (#1 & #3)
2 Have the same #of letter in their name (#1 & #2)#3 That triad answer borders on cheating, so Ill try another…
A difficult Triad:
Which is the 3rd “Cafe Society” type triad of the thread
Spirit In The Sky
One Piece at a Time
Car
2 Are exactly 4:00 minutes long (#1 & #2)
