Yes it’s Ga-ames Night and the feeling’s right oh yes it’s Ga-ames Night oh what a night!
Tonight me and a panel of punters will be playing games of creativity, knowledge and bluff drawn from the Jackbox series of games in a manner we hope you will find entertaining. And whatsmore all these games are fully interactive and you can playalong on your phone, trying to find correct answers, choosing your favourite answers and affecting the outcome.
Tonight’s menu:
- Drawful 2 – Our panel are given something unusual to draw. It might be something easy like “a dolphin”, it will probably be something much harder like “a dolphin dreaming of becoming president”. Everyone then gets to see each picture and come up with a name for it, then everyone tries to guess what the actual title is. You came up with lots of these picture titles!
- Lie Swatter – a simple true or false quiz. Bonus points for correct answer streaks and answering the fastest.
- Fibbage 2 – Fill in the blank with something believable. Hope that people pick your answer and that you pick the right one.
- Quiplash – Players given prompts and have to come up with something witty and entertaining to fill them. Everybody votes for their favourite answer.
To determine the winner of the night the panel are playing for extra marbles for the new and improved The Road to Sortition finale, Bother’s Bar’s hit marble race quiz format that’s already been sold to 200 countries.
I will also be keeping a close eye on Twitter, please use #bbgn to share your thoughts.
Edit: If you want to use that set of Drawful 2 titles for yourself, start a custom game and put the following code in: TMD-LCTG.
Now your format has been sold to 200 countries, I wonder which format has been the one that was sold to the most countries. I suppose it’s Millionaire, but there are also many versions in one country at the same time (for example in India) so you can’t just count the number of versions to conclude the number of countries. So is it sold to the most countries?
I think Strictly is still the most successful format ever, over fifty countries have or have had local versions.
Come Dine With Me is our biggest at work but it is still some way behind Strictly.
Still sad I had to back out, but my night turned out to be even more busy than I expected. I’ll have to watch the recording sometime though!
