Queensland - 31/05/10-01/07/10

Post by PAQ12 »

Here is a game that was made on a discussion board years ago by myself, and thought it must be time to rejuvinate the current 'where is it' game to 'what bus is it'.

The rules are simple, you need to remove any identifying marks about the bus, like fleet # and rego #, but desto is optional. These are the only items that can be removed!
This game isn't restricted to just Brisbane Transport, can be any operator in SEQ including buses, trains, ferries, trams, monorail (preferrably those listed on the FL BA), but if using another operator other than BT and more so where the livery might be the TransLink livery, you must at least put in when posting the pic what operator it is.

Lets hope this will take off, and will have it's own section in time to come...

The only response required from the guesser is the fleet # (or name of the vehicle in some operators cases), for instance '123'
The only response required by the poster is either 'higher', 'lower', 'correct' or in the event of named vehicles, 'newer' or 'older'.
When the guesser guesses the correct answer, the poster must post the un-edited version of the picture.
Then it is the winners decision if they chose to be the poster or if they wish to pass the game on.
The winner has 48 hours in which to post the picture otherwise anyone else can then post after that time

To give an example, here goes:

BT Buses wrote:higher

User1 wrote:1244

So here goes the first one:

In the first post should the second answer "higher" not be "lower" as 1244 is below 1250?

Many buses look identical, what's the point of a numbers guessing game?

An extra bit of fun for the board maybe? I think it's a good idea myself, and as moderator of the "Where is it?" section, would be more than happy to moderate a "What bus is it?" section if the admins chose to make one...

@ Fleet Lists - me bad, I apologise :?
@ jamesmp - as busrider says, abit of fun. Where Is It has been around for a few years now and im sure some members have grown old (or sick) of it as some of the originals who use to guess no longer guess.

(although I have to apologise, it was not meant to be put into the QLD photo section)

This should be in the Games Cupboard and that is hosted on another board.

I have to agree, its just a random guessing game, we may as well not even have a picture. Although if other people find it entertaining (I can't see why) then I suppose it isn't so bad, however I don't think that Photos-Brisbane/Qld is the best place for it, as Volvo B12BLEA said

and if you read what I said in my 2nd last post
"(although I have to apologise, it was not meant to be put into the QLD photo section)"

Lets get back to the game. If you don't want to play it, then don't respond!

Would you also suggest that the "Where is it?" section be moved to The Games Cupboard? It is also a game... I believe that the "What bus is it?" idea is good enough to deserve a section, in the same area as The Lunch Room and Where is it? forums in the Miscellaneous section of the board.

p.s - just bus number is fine, don't need quotes and any other form of text.
