It's odd, but it's not peculiar

gatorparrots · Jan 10, 2003

In keeping with the other thread in this forum, I have another game for you. The game is called It's odd, but it's not peculiar. That's the name of the game and the game is in the name.

I'll start:

It's butter, but it's not oily.

MacAddikt · Jan 10, 2003

how does this game work? do we answer you and then put our own?

gatorparrots · Jan 13, 2003

The goal is to figure out the proper response and post back when you think you have guessed the correct way to respond (use the first post as your guideline).

Here's another example for good measure:
It's nutty, but it's not Mr. Peanut.

Peanut butter?

Fluid · Jan 18, 2003

I'm :wacko:

Remember, the name of the game and the game is in the name. Example #3:
It's messy, but it's not dirty.

muso · Jan 19, 2003

I dont' get it either! :huh

: Do you have to answer with a 'its not...but' statement or a noun?

MacAddikt · Jan 19, 2003

ill take a stab at it...

its Apple, but it's not Macintosh

gatorparrots · Jan 19, 2003

You've got it, MacAddikt. Give me one more example to prove that you have figured out the pattern.

Then we'll see if anyone else can guess the pattern, so don't give it away!

It's confusing, but it's not Windows

hehe

MacAddikt · Jan 20, 2003

i think ive figured it out, and i see that mine was starting a new topic. ill go back to the first example. this is a pretty neat game

It's sticky, but it's not gum

gatorparrots · Jan 20, 2003

Sorry! I thought you had it figured out, MacAddikt. Try this:
It's gummy, but it's not sticky.

Actually:
It's baffling, but it's not Windows.

It has a shell, but it's not UNIX

gatorparrots · Jan 20, 2003

Success! (Although your example isn't strictly according to the pattern, I will accept it.)
Please give one more example to prove yourself, that you have truly solved the mystery of the game.

Fluid · Jan 20, 2003

Is this right?

It's funny, but not a joke

gatorparrots · Jan 20, 2003

That's right Fluid. One more to prove you guessed the riddle!

rman · Jan 20, 2003

Okay, I will try. :blink:

It has wings, but doesn't fiy.

Fluid · Jan 20, 2003

It's a ball, but not round.

MacAddikt · Jan 21, 2003

its tall, but not wide

It's odd, but it's not peculiar
