Maybe we need a new rule for the unanswerable? X number people enter PASS or some one enters a valid entry... then move on to the next. What does everybody else think? Or a simpler way: maybe just one PASS and someone else can answer or move on to the next. Also one could go back and answer any PASS entry with a valid one?  |

That sounds good, yoro42. Either that or just skip XYZ altogether. I forgot how they did it years ago when I was here before, then I left for a while and came back. But I thought we were skipping all of XYZ.
I wish others would post what they think, it doesn't seem like many people post in the forum. For now I pass either way. |

The original rules aren't difficult to find, they're in the first few pages of the thread.

We have to take turns providing the next of six headings with a related term. Each of the six starts with the same letter of the alphabet. When the sixth heading is answered, we start again with the next letter (excluding Q, X & Z, if need be ). The player who completes "Y" is expected to provide six more subjects.
