Alternatively you can read the section below ~

how 2 play (99% of you can skip this)

I've somehow dug up 10 questions mostly relating to Dance/Electro/House music listed below and I will ask you to name a correct answer for each question and if you give a correct answer that no one else gave you will gain a POINTLESS that scores you 0 points for that question (which is a good thing )

If you are not so lucky to get a POINTLESS, the total players other than you answering the same correct answer will be your score for that question. So, for example if you, Bob and Jim answer Africa to "Name a continent on Earth" you will get 2 points.

Remember, you are looking for correct answers that you think no one else thought of in order to achieve the smallest score possible, but if you give an incorrect answer you will score the maximum score (which is bad!) (that is determined by the number of players taking part minus you)

A side note to those new to forum Pointlesses, the invention of the internet allows us all to Google (aka cheating ) for the answers in order to try to find an obscure answer, but since we all have this option (you wouldn't be reading this if you didn't ) and there is no way to stop you or know if you Google anything there are multiple bluffing layers which make it even more difficult to find those pesky Pointlesses so some have decided in the past to use something like random.org to give their answer

Will try and do this later, please remind if I forget spun

Thanks for pinning it Dan

Posted by: #OwlVicii 26th May 2015, 11:25 AM

I'm going camping until tomorrow eve now so I won't be able to add any additional players into the OP until I get back (you could if you want Dan )

Posted by: ♡ Heezus Froot ♡ 26th May 2015, 12:49 PM

This is me showing interest.

Posted by: 'Dan 26th May 2015, 01:10 PM

by the way these are great questions (especially liking the picture one, nice idea there) but in the future could they all be dance related? Questions 3 and 7 have nothing to do with dance music (would also call out Q8 but most of your #1s are dance!)

I'd like to put myself up for hosting Pointless #2 as well

Posted by: #OwlVicii 27th May 2015, 07:11 PM

I see you have been added

You got me but I did warn you "most" of them would be dance related but I will make all of the next ones dance if you wish
Look forward to the next one

More answers please guys! I wanted a minimum of 15 players but I suppose many are probably off on holiday or whatever so I could extend the deadline

Posted by: #OwlVicii 28th May 2015, 06:45 PM

Ultraviolence1989 I think you got a bit confused with Q10

You must choose ONE of the pictures which you think no one has guessed and tell me who you think it is

Posted by: Ultraviolence1989 28th May 2015, 06:46 PM

Do the last name I put

Posted by: #OwlVicii 28th May 2015, 06:54 PM

OK
5 players, hope it suddenly goes to 10 in the next few days and then 15 a few days later

Posted by: #OwlVicii 30th May 2015, 09:37 AM

Any more players? Reminders coming tomorrow

Posted by: Dircadirca 30th May 2015, 10:13 AM

Hoping Heezus and Lee dig up an oppurtunity to send their answers. I've taken into account the other Pointless and Buzzfest are also running so assuming they're still up for it I can extend it a little.

Posted by: Ethan 2nd June 2015, 07:14 PM
