    What's the limit, 3 guesses before we tell?

    3 guess limit seems fair

    3 guesses is a bit too few. I think a time limit is better

    24 hours?


  • Registered Users Posts: 6,911 ✭✭✭SeantheMan


    24 hours?

    I'd go with 24 hours.

    Also, maybe put all the current unanswered and questions you are trying to answer in quotes.

    E.G.
    Q : Perspective changes and impossible matter manipulation help you chase a black blob
    I dunno,
    Q : Futuristic racer- anti-gravity vehicles
    Wipeout


    Just so we don't lose unanswered questions in the thread if multiple get posted.
