Match Game 13: A Colorful Phrase - Final Standing Posted

Post by gamawire »

WELCOME TO MATCH GAME 13

I really should have thought of this last Friday, but now will work. It’s been a while, so a new Match Game seemed like a good idea.

The idea is simple – fill in the blanks, and try to get the most popular answer. You will score one point for each person who says the same thing as you. High score wins. Responses can be more than one word long.

Submit your responses HERE and the game will close Monday, May 23, at 6:00 PM CDT.

1. WHITE _____________________

2. ______________________BLACK

3. GREEN _____________________

4. ____________________ YELLOW

5. BLUE _______________________

6. ________________________ RED

7. BROWN _____________________

8. ________________________ROSE

9. GRAY _______________________

10. ______________________ VIOLET

11. ORANGE ____________________

12. _____________________ COLORS

13. RAINBOW ___________________


Have fun!


My responses:

I'm looking forward to seeing what my answers were. I think I only remember two of them for sure. One of the hazards of entering while drinking at game night...

Now I don't feel so bad about my choice between Jack and Orphan Black. I'd've been #10 either way.

But you added a point for us, so your fellow Black sheep thank you :D

Surprised Orphan Black ranked so high. I really need to catch up on that show, but I'm a season+ behind now.
