A game master (me in the first iteration) will posit 5 questions on any given topic that follow the formula of "Name a ..." (for instance, "Name a Tour de France winner" - it doesn't have to be cycling-related, though). Every participant then sends a PM to the game master with his five answers.

The goal for the participants is to try and choose the answers they think most other people will go with, too. The more people give the same answer as you do, the more points you get. So for instance, if the answer for the Tour de France winner question are distributed as the following:

10x Tadej Pogacar
7x Chris Froome
4x Egan Bernal
2x Eddy Merckx
1x Cadel Evans
1x Simon Pellaud

Then everyone who sent in the answer Tadej Pogacar gets 10 points, everyone who answered Chris Froome gets 7 points and so on.

Now, you will notice that Simon Pellaud has yet to win the Tour de France. It is entirely permitted to submit wrong answers if you think you actually are with stupid - or if you're simply not sure if something technically "counts" as the thing that is being asked for, but you think many others might go with it anyway (Lance Armstrong might be such a case for the question above).


Each game consists of five rounds, so we will crown the winner after 25 questions, who will then go on to host the next round (unless they really don't want to, of course). I hope the rules are clear. If not, don't hesitate to ask. Of course, the more people participate, the more fun it is (so feel free to let everyone else know you're in by replying here ).
