View Full Version : The bookcase investigation.
These are the rules!
If you want to take part you add your name to the list that will shortly appear under this post. You need to PM a photo (or it’s link) to me, BoB
All entries will be posted on the MB on Monday evening next week.
The aim of the game is to correctly identity the owner of the bookcase/shelf or pile
You are allowed to ask any of the people taking part one question relating to anything you have seen in the picture, you must name the person you are asking the question to first, but questions such as “do you own a book on nude camp sites in Normandy” [if you happen to see a book of that title displayed] will not be permitted.But you could ask have you ever been camping in Normandy? Or have you ever been to a nude campsite? Questions relating to objects other than books are permitted as long as they are on the bookcase
Post your question in the thread, but the person who is replying to your question has to reply to you, and you only via PM, that way not everyone else gets the benefit of your brilliance if you’ve thought of a simply superb question to ask.
You can ask anyone a question, but only one question per entrant.
Deadline for guesses will be Thursday next week.
On Friday I will start a new thread for everyone to post their guesses, each bookcase will have it’s own unique identification number, such as 1, 2, 3 etc
I will announce the winner the following Monday evening at 7pm
Bring it on bobski...I am on a roooooooooooooooooooollll.
Ceridwen 07-04-2005, 07:56 PM This reminds me a bit of another game created by a total genius I know. :whistling:
Dolores 07-04-2005, 07:58 PM This reminds me a bit of another game created by a total genius I know. :whistling:
I think I know that genius too!
Actually as I can't take part I will be a champion guesser! I expect the only one I will get right will be Cat's!

Neither could I until this morning!
I've been from my PM box to photo bucket to my excel spreadsheet (yeah I know I'm posh) for the past two hours, I was going to leave it till tomorrow night, but glad I didn't!
You lot really do have the hardwork though as I'm not taking part in the guess.
All those photos to look at and questions to ask.
Thanks to everyone who took pics.
I'm just waiting for scerets' photo now and I think Dol expressed an interest and Nox should have bought her digital camera by now :rolleyes:
Dolores 10-04-2005, 02:55 PM ooh you misunderstand me Bob! I'm interested in guessing but not entering due to my lack of camera.
you seem to be working very hard on this.
You and Ceri deserve some kind of excellence award for services to the board!
Islandman 11-04-2005, 05:36 PM Hey Bob, I just sent you a PM with my bookcase.
I had to have a the charger for my digital camera sent to me and wasn't sure if I'd get it in time...but I did...so add me to the list if i can still join...I have no idea what time it is over there so not sure if the deadline is passed or not. lol.
survivorfan 11-04-2005, 05:44 PM ooh you misunderstand me Bob! I'm interested in guessing but not entering due to my lack of camera.
Couldn't you send her a quick sketch of your bookcase? Oh rats, you can't, the deadline has passed.
