I had idea for an AQOS-style game. It needs work, though

colon_closed_bracket [Edit] [Delete] 14:01, 22 April '13

I'll call it BalderDiS.

Basically, it's a rip-off of the board game Balderdash (which in turn is very similar to popular radio show Call My Bluff).
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Balderdash

Every week we have five "panellists". The game will consist of 15 rounds. Each round, I'll give a word or phrase* and the panellists have to come up with a definition for the word. One of the five panellists will have the correct definition; the other four will have to make up a definition.

Points will be awarded to:
- DiSers who ^this the correct definition;
- Panellists who get the most ^thises against their definition.

no googling, obvs.

There'd have to be some kind of cut-off point. i.e. panellists post their responses on a Tuesday lunchtime and then there is a cut-off for thises by the Thursday lunchtime, with answers being revealed on a Friday. Or something.

Do you think this would work? Anyone want to be a panellist?
