Ask 14 questions about that cricketer. Then you guess, you can guess before 15 question. You can not look at the statisctics or anything else.

I'll join once again. We three will continue. dhoniisbest, your new rules were spelt wrong, so do you mind if I correct them.

You have to ask all you can about the player in the first 14 questions, only then can you say that players name. Also, you are not allowed to check his stats.

Lets be more inovative guys.

This product has gone down to the bone and it won't be revived that easily so start thinking about something new guys.

Maybe we can have quiz. We ask cricketing questions and anyone can answer it. If they get it wrong, they get no points and someone else gets to answer that question. If you type in the answer before anyone else and gte it correct, you get 5 points, but if you get a question which was guessed wrong by someone else, you get 2 points. Sabby!!!!

If you don't get it, ask me again and I will try my best to make more clear for you.

I don't think that idea will work well mate because of the time difference.

Let's make it a competition, then we can make it interesting and tell the members about it in the Shoutbox. A question and two days are given for everybody to PM the person who posted it and the winner posts the next one. If there is a tie, then we will keep a question for one separetly. I think it is a bit like What's Your Take, but let's see. Let's keep coming up with new ideas. We should be having something valuable soon enough.

PM's are not a good idea mate! I don't know if you were around DF when there was the game called "cricketer of the week game".

We tried to pm route to stop the cheating but instead, it stopped the game dead in its tracks.

Keep thinking folks; its good to make the young brain cogitate.

I asked that question on the 81st page and on the 93rd page, but no one is ready to answer. I think it's because we are asking questions about a players stats and all.

Maybe because this game has stats and information about cricketers.

This is game is not about asking that kind of questions. We have to ask questions to a person who has a cricketer in his mind. We try to figure out that cricketer by asking questions. Look at the previous pages and you'll know how this works.

That question that you posted is on every single website on the net. Not big deal about that.

Nice idea,b ut it is a bit boring.

Also try and post something else other thasn INDO-PAK stuff. Now I don't even want to watch the series (it's not like I rate the series very highly compared to all other Indian matches. I think all Indian matches are the same).

What about guessing a wickets a cricketer took in his career or he currently has. So Guru picks cricketer and tells us, and then we have to guess the numbers of wicketes he took. Gure answers by saying "lower" or "higher" instead of saying yes or no. This is little demostration.

Guru tells us its going to be Sachin's highest score.

If somebody asks 180, then guru has to say higher or lower, in this case it would be higher and then so on, with other cricketers with and other things too.

Congrats on 3000 posts, DRAVID FAN. I posting this earlier because you come online early, and I won't waking up until 9:30.

Thanks on 3000 posts.

The game sounds fun. Let's try it. Since it was your idea, why don't you post it in the Shoutbox.

Yeah, theres that answer and we know some of the things that happen in cricket such as runs scored an dother things.

The thing is that people who are asking question can't go look for that particular thing, they have to guess. Instead of 20 question, there should only 10-15 question.

I hope this turns out to be honest game.

How about that?
