I Have been trying to develop a Garth Style Game for several months. With the Quiz master general’s kind permission I have a short version of a Garth style game ready to post on monday
come one come all and wile away the quarantine hours!
We are all through. The players were very patient with the inexperienced gamester and her Marsha messes ( not at all like Garth Gaffes)
i woukd like to try it again, if only because we all need more home entertainment

GREAT MARSHA!! --
I will be looking forward to it. It is both challenging and fun to be on the "other side" of these games or quizzes.
I've looked at life from both sides now: "The proverb imitation is the sincerest form of flattery means that one imitates someone else because one admires that person or values what that person is doing."

So true on both counts!
I knew it would be hard to create a puzzle. It was hard to come up with good matches which were fair, and obscure but not crazy obscure. Little did I know that was just the beginning. Without Matt’s kind permission to use his template, I never would have made it happen . As it is I made it short so I could use this as a shake down Cruise. I anticipate plenty of questions about scoring etc. I can only say the experience has increased my appreciation of Matt, you and other quizzmaniacs 100 fold.
I hope Matt sees it as flattery for it surely is.

I certainly do see it as flattery, Marshamae!
(but I still put the bill in the mail anyway)

Posting around 11am. EDT
HOPE TO SEE YOU
THIS WILL BE A RATHER SHORT QUIZ, ONLY 25. MATCHES AND NOT TOO TOO DIFFICULT. THIS WILL GIVE ME A CHANCE TO LEARN SOME OF THE TRICKS.

I'm suspect #4 in that lineup, Kijii -- the Brad Pitt lookalike.
