Fact or Wacked

So how does this thing work?
1. Up to 10 users are allowed to play at a time, with the sign-up sheet being posted for one week before we start.

2 There will be a challenge posted every 2 days and players will get 24hrs to respond to it. These challenges will be in the form of 3 statements. Each played must then guess if each of the statements is fact or fiction (wacked). Try not to google the answer, just go with your best guess. The reason I’m asking you not to google the answer is that then you will always get them right, therefore always gaining the max number of points - that makes it no fun and there can’t be a winner unless someone misses a round.

3. I will post links to the fact information, so you know I’m not just making stuff up.

4. Time Zones will always be an issue regardless of what time the challenge is posted. And new challenges are posted in Central Time, usually in the morning. Unfortunately, there is no perfect time, so certain players will always be handicapped no matter what time the host posts.

5. There are points awarded for each challenge:
- The first person to answer will gain 1 point
- Each player will get 1 point for each of the three statements they guess correctly as fact or wacked
- For guessing all 3 statements correctly, a bonus of 2 points is gained.

6. If a player misses 3 rounds in a row or 5 rounds total in the game they will be eliminated.

7. The game will last for 10 rounds. The person with the most points will win the game. Their prize is 24hrs of colors.


Example:

1. The placement of a donkey’s eyes in its head allows it to see all four of its hooves at all times.
2. Squirrels are the reason for most blackouts in the United States.
3. There is a nerveless area of skin half the size of a playing card on the top of your foot. Your brain compensates for it.

DG hitting double digits already! LOL

 

I am decidedly not very good at this game

 

And it can be hard to parse out what you know is a confirmed fact versus just something that is commonly believed to be.

 

Remember, I ran a trivia game for something like 15 years.
