QUESTIONS

The rules are simple: you ask each other questions, and ONLY questions. Scoring is based on fouls, which are defined below:
  • statement: player fails to reply with a question
  • repetition: player asks questions identical to or synonymous with one already asked this game (not match - I'll define this later)
  • rhetoric: player asks a rhetorical question
  • non-sequitur: player responds with an unrelated question
I'll set each match to consist of a best of 3 games, and it will be 3 points per game (except when it is 2-2; there, you need the Advantage i.e. 2(Adv)-2 to 3-2).

A sample of how this works:

User A: How is everything going?
User B: Why do you ask about how I'm going?
User A: I'm bored.
User B: Statement! 0-1 to me.
User A: How does that count?
User B: What?
User A: How does that count?
User B: Repetition! 0-2 to me, game point.
User A: What is the aim of this?
User B: Why do you question our motives?
User A: Why do you suggest our motives are questionable?
User B: What on earth is going on?
User A: Non-sequitur! 1-2 to you, game point.
User B: Do you want me to help you?
User A: Have you ever helped me before?
User B: It it possible for me not to help you?
User A: Rhetoric! 2-all.

...and so on.

I'll have one arena to start, and if needed, I will open more.

Arena:
