This game is a combination of What Card am I thinking and Movie Trivia.
Rules.
1. Each "round" will start with 100 points.
2. Each "round" a person will state I'm watching a movie that has [this actor/actress] in it.
3. Everyone is allowed 1 question and 1 guess per update.
4. Each guess and/or question will take 1 pt off (max 1 pt per post)
4. Winner will begin next round.
Tips.
1. As a technician, I'm taught to half the problem first. The half it again. That will save plenty of points on this game.
2. Use imdb.com, it's the best site for this game.
Example:
Me: I'm watching a movie with Jim Carrey in it.
U: Was it made before 1994? The Mask
U2: Is it a comedy? The Truman Story
Jim Carrey has been in 31 movies. Of those, 13 were made before 1994.
Of the movies made before 1994, 8 were categorized as comedies.
This is the best way to narrow down the movies.
