Match Game (Non Rev Edition) Game 1

Match Game--(non rev edition) Game 1

This game is for all of you that said “I’d like to play the aviation games but they’re just to hard“.

Rules --A panel of judges will answer 5 fill-in-the-blank questions
Players will try and match the judge’s answers.

Players will receive one point every time their answer matches that given by a judge.
Max points per round five.
There will be four rounds and a bonus round . Note - only those who have posted in the previous rounds are eligible to participate in the bonus round. In the bonus round each match will be worth five points, meaning that even if you have been completely clueless the entire game you still could still *theoretically* swoop in at the last minute and win the game.
Speaking of winning-
Prizes --
Grand prize--The grand prize winner will receive a beautiful virtual trophy (provided I can figure out the program) which will be delivered by PM in a quiet, dignified (as befits) virtual ceremony.


Second prize--The second place winner will receive a virtual quart-size, zip-top, clear plastic bag, suitable for carrying virtual sandwiches and/or liquids aboard virtual aircraft.
Warning: Not intended for use with actual sandwiches and/or liquids


Third prize --The third prize winner will receive a virtual paper luggage tag (complete with virtual elastic tie & knot)
-Virtual paper luggage tags are totally recyclable


I think that covers everything - so lets get started.


*show of hands*http://bestsmileys.com/waving/1.gif I need four incorruptible judges and of course, some contestants.

I'd love to play! I'd like to be a contestant!

I'll be a judge. Or I'll play. Whichever the team needs. (I'm unselfish you know.)

What happened to the game?

Game Postponed - not enough players.

I'm in, either position you want me to be.

http://bestsmileys.com/thumbs/7.gif OK, just need a few more players to have a really good game

Just start doing it, people will fall in place.

We need at least one more judge and contestant, that is unless you just want to try and match my answers.

LOL!

I can play against Mig but let's try to wait a bit for at least one more judge/contestant. It won't be as fun with just one judge. C'mon, lets get this game ROLLING!!!!!

Ok, I'm ready! Where's the game?!

Alright, I really think we need another judge, but since you three want to play; we’ll have a head-to head match and see how it goes.


Question One
Captain Jack is really an “old school pilot“, he so retro he’s actually wears _____ on the flight deck. :cool:

I'm not sure if I'm a judge or a player, or if I'm doing this right, but I'm going to put my vote in for: his hat!

Question 3
Old man Periwinkle said “nonrevs today have no idea how hard non-revving used to be. In my day when you wanted to know flight loads, you called a number and someone actually when out and counted _____. “

the number of people on the tarmac

I can only think of the days before computer reservation systems. I think they used to keep names on notecards for reservations, so I'm going to go with that!

When out to where to count what? Went out to the airplane? To the tarmac? To baggage claim? To the gate seating area? To hell? I'm going to go with OUT TO THE PLANE and count empty seats.

Mig. I think I've seen these questions before a few years ago. This is not new. Natuarally, I don't remember the answers to these questions, but these are old test questions on here. Can you mix in something different?

Palms these are new questions, you’re just an O.G (original gamer) .http://bestsmileys.com/lol/6.gif
This is your courtesy 4 hour warning.

End of Round 3
Judge
Mig - empty seats

Question 4
On the airline Dora complained to Gloria, “I can’t believe how Cloud 9 airlines nickels & dimes you, they charge us for everything - they even have coin-operated _______!”

toilets

Of course. I concur. Ever change one of those? First take off shroud, then shut the valve off on the pull handle of the toilet itself, undoe four bolts, a grounding strap, disconnect a cannon plug and pull apart the slip ring with flange to disconnect the tube where all the crud goes. A fine job indeed. And wear gloves. Install fresh new toilet in reverse order. Of course, you must check the MX manual for the latest update and to satisfy FAA standards. Have a nice day.

This is your courtesy 8 hour warning. Get your guesses in.:cool:

I would say toilets, but I don't want to copy BowlerMom. My guess is on oxygen masks :)

End of Round 4
Judge
Mig - seat belts
