[OB..]

I used a variant of this game when I taught English in Sweden for a short while. It worked well with younger children. Everybody would stand up. One would start counting upwards from 1. Any number that contained a 7 or was a multiple of 7 would be replaced by "toothbrush" (a good pronunciation test). Anyone who got it wrong had to sit down and was out of the game. It usually went quite well initially as they got the hang of it, but problems emerged in the 70s because they tended to lose count (and I had to be very careful!). Past 84 they were in virgin territory.

We are in no danger of getting to 70! it's taken us a day to get to eight and now it's damos turn and he is asleep in Australia

Rule 13.45.e Turns to be taken 'without delay'

Rule 13.45.e Turns to be taken 'without delay'

is that the same as immediately?

so presumably we oscillate between 7 and minus 7 forever???

 

[L'irlandais]

Not quite, but one of the game’s many unique aspects, is that no hesitation is allowed.
That and absolutely no experience is necessary to start playing.

no we keep counting up, but the play goes in reverse direction ...

 

[L'irlandais]

I would be inclined to say Nine, but then I’m eliminated for such along delay. :shrug:
