Default Guess the Number! (Dead thread, find new one!)

Okay. this is how it works. bear with the semi-seriousness of the rules for a bit before you enter this super-silly game.each day everyone gets 2 Guesses at a Number from 1 to 20. ONLY ONE POST PER PERSON PER DAY!(Day: the time between updates, mine or Indurian's) When you Gues a Number try to think up something witty to do corresponding to our current theme. to find that out, go and find my last theme announcement on page 33. At approx 9:00 (pacific time) i will roll a d20 and the people who got it right get +/- 1 on their next Guesses. this is always towards the correct Number. if you keep getting them right it stacks. if you get to +/- 5 I will give you a prize, and a new Round starts and scores are wiped. we are currently on Round 9(duh, it says so in the name!). Ready? GO! Guess something! explain something! punch something! (wait, why?) DO SOMETHING INTERESTING ALREADY!!!

What kind of D20 are you rolling? A standard D20, or the kind that Wizards of the Coast sells where all of the numbers spiral around the outside, making half of the die topheavy?

\/ It's still a worthwhile question, since they are technically twenty sided dice. And, yes, I suppose it would make them top-light if you consider the 1 to be at the top. Thanks. :)

@/\: actually, it makes them toplight, because the numbers are indentations. Those dice are meant to be used as life counters in MTG, anyway.

okay i'm late but i'm on the same day. i'm now setting an alarm to remind me to pick a number. today's number is 5. so nobody won today. nobody has any bonuses. i think for the purpose of impossibility i am changing the target number of +/- to 10 now to make it easier. See you next time, keep guessing for that elusive number!

Wow! a 20! well i shouldn't be that surprised...as Raven-GM pointed out it is no less probable than anything else. so then, todays winners are:
Nobody, MUAHAHAHAHAHAHA! maybe this would be more interesting if there were more people. then i would feel like i was doing more than telling other people i rolled a d20. try and make more people Guess the Number. then the more people we have, the more people will get it right! so keep guessing for the Slippery Number!
