It's that time again so far: the Board Game "I'm with stupid" was closed. And again I must say, quite deal! After over a year the second attempt of the game is so well finished, but what happened this time?
I'm with Stupid (IWS) has been revived in September last year by Lionhead . The biggest difference for the first IWS: there are rules and the rounds will be reduced from three to one, in return, but questions were raised from five to seven. Who does not know what is included in IWS is all about: the GM asks questions and the players send their answers via PM (Private Message) to the head. This evaluates all the answers, the same answers automatically bring more points. It's basically a question that is to provide an answer, which one believes that the other will give the same answer. It always comes back to strange and funny answers, an excerpt of which you can read in my first IWS-thread performance.
But there is another way, that time has already shown the first IWS. By silly and sometimes insulting answers the meaning of the game has clearly failed. The new rules this problem in the second IWS is indeed contained directly - but the game will now pause for the time being. The air is simply out of time. Do it with fewer and fewer players, are in fact even just a regular player here, newcomers will find or not at all rare. Evaluations have been going on sometimes long, leading to resentment among teammates. If the Game master in a timely evaluation of promises and they do not comply, or simply does not ask questions - then something is simply wrong. Who plays with IWS should be aware that he do what it needs to win if we just!
The highlight at this time, the IWS are partially inserted "theme rounds" have been. The game master sets a solid theme (such as a film) and is to his questions. This must be done of course not, but in the meantime can be quite refreshing. Here one must be careful of course that it does not frighten players who can not do anything with - as happened for example with a single "Youtube round. After all, who already feels like sometimes to see a long film clips, just to answer questions?
Anyway, now IWS is completed only once. Who knows how, where and when the game is being revived. The fact is that it is the best for IWS and we can all look forward to a erstärktes IWS sometime next year. Because let's be honest: Who does not a creative break right?
