The
Identity Game
Scoring Rules
|
This
is how you score points in the Identity Game.
| +2
|
You
get 2 points for each city you identify correctly. So a
maximum of 8 points if you guess the identities of all the
other four teams in the group. |
|
|
| +1
|
You
get 1 point for each other team that identifies your city
correctly. So a total of 4 points if you succeed in having
all the other four teams guess your identity (but no
cheating!) |
|
But
you can also lose points:
| -1
|
You
lose 1 point for each wrong guess. You can say "I have
no idea which city that is." But if you say "it's
Bombay!" and it turns out to be Paris, you lose a
point. |
|
|
| -2
|
You
lose 2 points for each question you don't answer, out the
required four. That's because not answering makes the
others' job harder. Plus you miss out on some of the fun… |
|
One
more way of getting points: If I really like your team's
answers, I might reward you with a lot of bonus points. I like
answers that are:
- Tricky
at first glance, but very informative if someone figures out how
to find the clues.
- Well
made, fun to look at, read, hear, or experience. Be creative and
enjoy the process.
- Designed
to make people understand what it's "really" like to
live in your city: not like a tourist brochure, but more like
actually being there.
