Those of you who have signed up should be getting your cards soon (if you haven't already).

 

Card hath been received

 

In The Blue Milk

Your host will PM all players five cards to start with and list 3 cards in the thread. On your turn, you will play one card in the thread and a new card will be PM'd to you to replace it, this will keep your hand at 5 cards. You must play a card with a noun that is larger or smaller than the one listed. You also need to explain why it fits. If the host doesn't accept your explanation as a valid one, you lose your turn. The card you've played will be taken out of the game, and you'll receive another card.

Examples:
small<<<<<<<<<<<<big
Line1: Head
Line2: School
Line3: Dryer
are listed
Player 1 could play:
small<<<<<<<<<<<<big
Line1: Head
Line2: School
Line3: Dryer - Basement
Player 1 added "Basement". A dryer will fit in a basement.

Another example:
small<<<<<<<<<<<<big
Line1: Head
Line2: Desk - School
Line3: Dryer - Basement
Player 2 added "Desk" under school, a desk will fit in a school.

You may only play a card over the largest or under the smallest card in each row. You cannot play it between two cards. So the next player could put something before Desk, but not between Desk and School.

If you can't play a card or choose to pass, you may exchange up to three cards and skip a turn. You would PM the host with the cards you want to exchange on that turn, and she will PM you back with replacements.

You can only play a card or exchange card(s) when it's your turn.

If you miss three rounds all in all during the game, you will be eliminated from the game.

Winning:
If you play the third card to any row, you start a Blue Milk Round, in which all players try to win that row of cards. Starting with the next player in line, each gets a chance to play a card that is larger than the last card in that row. If you don't have a card to play, you pass without exchanging or adding cards to other rows, and play continues with the next player in the line-up. The round is over when all the players who are able to play a card have played, the person who started the Blue Milk Round will have already played their card and will not get to play a second card in the round. Whoever played the largest card wins in the round. That player wins that row, and a new row is started by the host from the next card in the deck. There will always be 3 rows in play. The game resumes with the next player after the one that started the Blue Milk Round.

During a Blue Milk Round (BMR), you can only play cards that are larger than the largest card in that row. Once someone starts a BMR, all play is focused on the row in contention. No cards may be played to other rows. All players, including the person who started the BMR, may not replenish their hands until the round is over.

Each card played in a BMR is worth 1 point, the largest card, and therefore the winning card of the round is worth 2 points.

Tips:
*The card you play only has to relate to the card it directly touches, not the entire row.
*You may add a modifier such as "a", "an", "the", or "my" when playing your card. However, you may not embellish your card with other nouns to make it fit.

Round 1:
1. Bottle of Conditioner
2. Screw
3. Paint Brush

I also just realized I've been doing points wrong this entire round, but I'll leave it as it is and give out points properly in the next round.

Can’t play a card

 

So, do you have to consider the previous person's statement? For example, say someone said a townhouse is bigger than a toothbrush, does the next person then have to view that house as a townhouse, or can they reinterpret it, like a barbie dream house is smaller than a car?

So in this case, I interpreted hanger as an aircraft hanger, but could JKF interpret it as a clothes hanger?

 

You do not need to take into consideration how the last player viewed a card. All you have to do is make your card fit with whatever the previous card was. In this case, hanger - interpret that how you will to make your card work.
