Title: Dingbats! - Team Lilly Forum Game
Post by: Miss Mudds on July 19, 2018, 16:00:04
Dingbats Forum Game
21-27 July

Welcome to Team Lilly's forum game: Dingbats!

What is a Dingbat?

Amongst other definitions, a dingbat is a simple text-based picture that represents a phrase or word.
Your challenge, should you wish to accept, is to guess the meaning of the six daily dingbats!

Here's two examples!

(https://i.imgur.com/UmQatVv.png)

The trick to these, is basically "Say What You See", so with this one, the word MISS is -under- STANDING...
the answer: MISUNDERSTANDING!

Let's try another.

(https://i.imgur.com/9UmpatV.png)

With this one, there are three of the word POD in a triangle
3 pod.... 3 of something is worded with TRI-
You got it? TRIPOD!

Check back at 12:00 game time on Saturday, and attempt some more on your own!

Event information:

Each post will be uploaded each day at 12 noon game time.
PM me your answers to take part. Each one is numbered, so please make sure the numbers match your answer.
You can answer previous day's dingbats if you don't figure it out, just please say which day it refers to!
All answers will be revealed at the end of the event, which will close at 12 noon Saturday 28th to ensure time for Friday answers to come in!

Prizes!

1st Place: 5m
2nd Place: 3m
3rd Place: 1m

Tied places will share the prize (e.g. if two people come second, they each get 1.5m

See you Saturday for the first round!!!

Day three has stumped quite a few people!! I wonder how you'll do today! Remember you have up until Saturday 1pm (12 noon game time) to get all the answers in, so If you want to submit a few each day, you can do, or if you want to submit them all after Fridays goes live, then do so!

Two people have managed to give me 100% correct answers so far, with many more following close behind! All is to play for still!

Day 4

This is just a progress update, letting people know what days they have already submitted, and if they want to catch up, which days have yet to be answered =) You have until 12 noon game time on Saturday to answer all the weeks Dingbats, but thought the update would be useful to those taking part to see what they have done so far. If you haven't taken part yet, get involved, check back and pm me any answers you come up with!

Its honestly all to play for, and I'm so happy at how people are giving it a great go, even if they do struggle to get them! Keep it up peeps!  \:D/ \:D/ \:D/

DRUMROLL PLEASE!!!!

Its time to announce the winners!!!

In first place with 41 points out of 42, winning 5m, is @Tracie  \:D/

In second place with 40 points, winning 3m, is @ShaneGoesArd  \:D/

In third place with 38 points, winning 1m, is @EzEmberfang  \:D/

Please pm me in-game to collect!!

Got to do a shout out to @Amy who fought very closely and came in with 37 points, @Rubes and @Pink Shed who tied on 30 points and @Krazy Golf who came in with 27 points.

Extra shout outs to @Mojomaker who made me laugh the most, who made up some fantastic answers when he didn't know what they were. Got to say the best one was "Whoever Gnikam is has lost their alarm clock 4 times!" Still got 18 points out of it And also to @Aquanoise who gave it their best shot, despite english not being a first language, and got a fantastic 12 points!!

Thank you to everyone who took part, whether it was for just one day or for the whole week, I hope you enjoyed it, and that I didn't frustrate you too much with these!

Thanks for the fun event, it was a blast. I thank you for the kind words I tried my best to be funny when I had no clue.

Huge congrats to the winners, I have to ask. @Tracie you got 1 wrong. Mind telling us which one it was? It's was the potato one right? right???

Day 6 Number 2 wasn't "Enter stage left: 8 nuns"? damn.
