WWTBAM Bored

Right after I post the rules for Shade and others who don't have a clue what I'm talking about.

This is mostly to see what kind of aftermarket response there is. I see a few veteran faces around, so I'll post the rules quickly.

This entire first game will be played in this thread so as no to annoy the Bored Sweeper.

The most important rule is NO outside sources.

Guess only once per clue.

First player to guess correctly wins the game.

1. Fictional character

Oliver Twist

Good guess, HerMillion.

1. Fictional character
2. Was created BCE

Dumbledor or whatever the heck his name is

What's BCE?

More than one person can guess per clue.

1. Fictional character
2. Was created BCE
3. Mythical

I'm here, but no good guess. If I have to say something, I will say, um, The Count of Monte Cristo.

Beowolf

Odyssey wrote:What's BCE?

Before the Common Era.

Common use is trying to move away from "Before Christ" and "Anno Domini" (in the Year of Our Lord).

Beowolf.....at least it was an answer on J! this week...

Beowulf is a Most Excellent guess. Now that the movie's out, I'll have to write a game around him.

1. Fictional character
2. Was created BCE
3. Mythical
4. Indirectly responsible for Prometheus’ release

Odysseus.

Pandora.

Odysseus is a Most Excellent Guess.

1. Fictional character
2. Was created BCE
3. Mythical
4. Indirectly responsible for Prometheus’ release
5. A seer had determined that Troy could not be taken without him

Galileo?

Obviously I dunno

Pandora is a Most Excellent Guess also.

The Golem

Hercules (the only other name I can think of in connection with Prometheus)

ulysses

Kay is physic!!!

OK, psychic.

I have a game written for Galileo. Maybe I'll use it someday.

I'm sure it's something I can't spell.....that's it....

Y'all are narrowing it down Most Excellently. Someone will probably get it on this clue, if somebody didn't get it while I was typing this.

1. Fictional character
2. Was created BCE
3. Mythical
4. Indirectly responsible for Prometheus’ release
5. A seer had determined that Troy could not be taken without him
6. Father was Peleus, mother was Thetis

Darn--so close. Aren't Odysseus and Ulysses the same person?
