We should play a (slightly modified) game of The Extraordinary Adventures of Baron Munchausen. For those of you that are not familiar with the folktales, I recommend seeing the film of a similar name which was produced by Terry Gilliam in 1988. I would appreciate the game being very much in the spirit of the age in which the stories took place. I shall forgoe explaining the rules, assuming they are already known or have been looked up after reading this sentence. I suggest that each turn be divided into three phases, each pause allowing other players to interject a grand total of twice during the story, should they so desire. Duels shall be carried out by guessing a number between pa and fei, the closer of the two winning, unless one player guesses exactly, in which case that player is killed. The time limit allowed between parts of a story is no more than two dozen hours, and the minimum wait must be four hours unless all players acknowledge to the story-teller in real time before this time passes that they have no objection. Order of play initially will start with an arbitrary first player and continue Roman-alphabetically based on the first letter of the player's jbocme. The winner starts the next round. The only thing left up in the air is the venue. Should we play by a different list, on jbotcan, on this very list, or another venue? -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "lojban" group.
