Friendly Reminder:

The game is to have x-number of something in the photo, NOT just to have the number in the photo, or something related to the number.

Here’s an example using the number 12.

This is incorrect. Yes, there’s a 12 in the photo, but there aren’t 12 somethings in the photo.

This is correct, because there are 12 ounces of beer.

Also, we need three (3) posts for each number before moving on. 11 and 13 only had two posts each.

I think by the time we get to the 50s we’re all going to get the hang of this. ;) :D :rolleyes:

OK thanks for the reminder :cool: :oops:

Not SURE there is 12 oz. in that picture, some's been downed already :D

I promise there are. It’s a 12 oz beer poured into a 16 ounce glass. ;) I passed up several photos because I had obviously taken a few swigs before taking the photo (foam lacing on the glass, etc.). :D

I enjoyed your cat pic, Will. Well done! :thumbsup:
 
btb01 btb01 Thanks Barrett, sorry about breaching the rules....enthusiasm took root :D Just ignore my disqualified pics please- I'm incompetent at deleting stuff, or use it as an example of how not to post :D The Cat is Cool and she follows me like a dog (quite a lot)

Off to collect 105 grains of rice...;)

Not an entry since I'm pretty new here, but it looked like fun and I'll help keep things moving. Ten strings - cello and guitar - and a Forge de Laguiole.

I bet Old Granddad likes to play dominoes, starting with a double 6, with 12 pips showing

Go ahead and repost it, ED. You had some interesting looking shells! I know you were looking forward to 14, you just jumped the gun a bit. I won’t hold it against you. ;)

No worries, Will! And no need to delete anything. I won’t be disqualifying anyone, but I will continue to reprimand any rule breakers. :D

Second. Will's didn't count because he didn't have 14 items. I'm waiting for Ed's.

My 11 / XI certainly didn't but the 14 I disagree ;) The Brass Box was made in 1914 as a gift to British troops in the trenches for the first Christmas of the First World War. Therefore, like a coin it's a physical entity ;)

Hmmm.... maybe I misunderstood the rules. I thought you could use a dime for 10 cents, but the year is different. "1914" would represent 1,914 years. But what do I know--I was never that good at math! :p

Rule Clarification: Is there a rule or should there be a rule going forward that the same item can't be used more than once? (Or is this going to be hard enough already???) ;-)

I’m worried enough about this thing stalling out without adding more rules :confused: so I’m going to leave it up to the Porch (who I know can be a creative bunch) to keep it interesting! :thumbsup:
