String Knots: So easy, all you need is string.
This game needs a minimum of one player and can be played with a maximum of 500, based on the amount of strings you have.
Setup: Spread a hand out in such that there is a large space between each finger. Wind the string around each finger in an alternating manner, in front of the thumb, behind the index and so on. Do this until the fingers are half covered.
Play: The goal is to make as many knots as possible while at the same time being able to unwind them.
To do this you must take the bottom loop of a finger and move it to the top of another finger while simultaneously moving the middle loop from that finger to the first finger.
The faster this is done the more points are earned.
If a loop falls, a penalty must be played. Penalties can consist of anything from a dance to dishes, but must begin with the letter D.
Once all loops have been moved, remove the mass from the fingers and begin to untangle it. You have three hours.

oh boy. sounds complicated.
ReplyDeleteso, hows life? bored much?
It only sounds complicated, in practice it's rather simple.
ReplyDeleteBored, not really. Why do you ask?
why else would u write a post abt a complicated game? (i still say its complicated. or maybe its just late, and i cant be bothered to focus on the instructions.)
ReplyDeleteI post many things, not all with reason. In this case however, there is. Some time ago, when filling out a profile form I was asked a most intriguing question about a creating a game of untangling yoyo string. Thus, String Knots was born.
ReplyDeleteIt may be a might bit complicated. Maybe you shouldn't try it if you are feeling as such. I wouldn't want you to hurt yourself after all.
:O
ReplyDeleteoh that sounds like a challange! bring it on!
(too bad im stuck in an office loading camp pics onto website. and no string around. oh well. it shall have to wait.)
btw, TAKE OFF the word verification! its mighty annoying.

Read it as such if you like, it was not intended. Or was it.
ReplyDeleteYou are in an office, and have no string? That i find hard to believe. Never have I seen an office that does not have any string. Go, piliage the high seas, you shall find your treasure.
As for the verification, I was unaware as to it's being, it shall be dealt with posthaste.
