Two Truths and a Lie Game

Post by Loredoctor »

This game is simple. Simply state two truths and a lie about yourself, and the next poster has to guess which is the lie. However, there can only be two guesses; logically, two 'wrongs' would point out the right answer (the lie). I'll let the next poster start the game.

You are 56 of what?

And I'm guessing the third one is the lie.

I'm sure I could find something that 56 applies to...

He explained to me he's 70 inches tall, and he's 33 years old. Loremaster, what do we do when one truths-and-lie is resolved?

I can only guess at this, but I would think that the poster who correctly guessed the lie would then speak 2 truths and a lie.

If nobody guessed the lie, then the original poster would have to post 2 more truths and another lie.

Sounds reasonable anyway, and if that's the case, we need TRC back in here.

Yes DragonLily told true, 33 is true (age)
56 is False (as far as I am aware)<although she came up with some interesting possibilities>
And 70 is my heighth in Inches

Sorry I didn't make it back yesterday to update.

To continue on I will throw this one out there :
I was going to do one on where I live, Ohio, but already have that in my bio. So I will try another route.

I enjoy big trucks,country music, and lots of dogs.
Yes I guess we can all just get along !

I think you hate country music.
And you can't stand driving through the southern states where that's all you get on the radio.

OK.
I'll start off easy here, as well.

I am right handed.
I am longer than I am tall.
I hate riddles.

I like the sleuthing, Sherlock. ;)
But I am right handed. I can see why that threw you off.......I must fix that!

Next guesser has a 50/50 shot!

Sorry, Dragonlily. I am longer than I am tall, as are you, and anybody else under the influence of gravity.
(Your joints compress as you stand as your own weight pulls you down.) Once laying down, your joints are no longer compressed in the same direction, therefore if you measure head to toe laying down, you will get a greater number than if you measure head to toe standing up. Therefore you are longer than you are tall.

The lie is that I hate riddles.

Now I have to think of some more.......but I'll make these simple.

1.) I am older than I look.
2.) I cannot type.
3.) I sing and the neighborhood dogs howl.

at the risk of having to go again I will guess that you are older than you look. I've never seen such a dashing stick figure before.

Very well done TRC! You are correct.
I am not older than I look.
I used to be, but not anymore.

It is now your turn.
