Title: WELCOME... TO THE GAME - Ship sim guessing game
Post by: Captain Titanic on January 14, 2008, 21:00:36

Well hello folks! welcome to THE GAME! :D

About this game:
I was board... (happens ocasionally...) so I decided that it was time to do something strange. I ended up makeing this topic which, I hope, will be great fun! welcme to the...

WELCOME TO THE GAME

By Captain Titanic

How to play:

1. Every Tuesday and Thursday and Sataurday I post three pictures of a ship.
2. These pictures are only a PART of a ship.
3. You have to guess what ship it is. If you get every three ship right... you archive a rank.

Everyone who plays will start from the "steerage" rank. The bottom class. As you get right awnsers, you will be moved up one class, to become a third class. You need 6 right awnsers to achive a class. These are how the classes go:

Steerage classGet 6 right awnsers to be...
Third class Get 9 right awnsers to be...
Second class Get 12 right awnsers to be...
First class Get 15 right awnsers to be...
CREW MEMBER Get 20 right awnsers to be...
CAPTAIN. Get an e-mail from me to be...
SPECHIAL

Brief instructions:

The first person to get the right awnsers on every ship shall win. It is a race against time. So check the earliest time possible on this topic to see if I have posted three new ships! once a member has got it right, I shall give them their score and if they have got all three right, no more awnsers will be tolerated. If the person has only got 1 or 2 right however, people can still guess the other 1 or 2 remaining ships.

Add-on
Every Tuesday there is a picture of normal ships. But on Thursday, they will be pics of ships from the SS08 Add-on. If you dont have it, then the pcitures on Thursday is not for you. The ships on Staurday can be any. The add-on ships can be:
Igor K.
Ocean Star
Yatch
North Star
historic yatch
cargo ship.

The first time you play, your name and rank shall be displayed here:
CAPTAIN TITANIC - SPECHIAL
EEMSPOORT - STEERAGE
AGENT|AUSTIN - STEERAGE
CARL - STEERAGE
TJK - STEERAGE
TAVARES JUNIOR - STEERAGE
J3NSEN - THIRD CLASS
SAM - STEERAGE
Hope you enjoy it. As I say...

WELCOME TO THE GAME "James Bond music"

Well, he said, the add-on ships on thursday, so it couldn't be the Classic Yacht, but it did confuse me...

Post by: Eemspoort on January 15, 2008, 18:57:43

Well then, i have the add-on since this morning, and i gues i misread your first post.
But that doesn't matter! This coul'd become a nice quizzz. ;D

Title: Re: WELCOME... TO THE GAME - Ship sim guessing game
Post by: Captain Titanic on January 15, 2008, 18:58:38

You all got fooled sayin that the third was "Latitude"...

IT WAS VERMAAS!
heh heh heh

New rule... I am adding vessels on the following days:

Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday

Title: Re: WELCOME... TO THE GAME - Ship sim guessing game
Post by: Mad_Fred on January 15, 2008, 18:59:36

The Vermaas and the Latitude share the same basic superstructure and from your image it was not obvious which one it was, therefor I would say, both answers could be counted as correct.

(Well the very small speck of blue in the corner can be seen as a container, but that's not really clear to the casual eye... It wasn't even clear to you yourself, cause that 'you've all been fooled' stuff is a poor excuse, really..)   ;D

Title: Re: WELCOME... TO THE GAME - Ship sim guessing game
Post by: Captain Titanic on January 16, 2008, 08:46:53

The Latitude has only two flightes of stairs. The vermaas has three.

Title: Re: WELCOME... TO THE GAME - Ship sim guessing game
Post by: mvsmith on January 16, 2008, 15:05:12

Neither ship has “stairs”.

Title: Re: WELCOME... TO THE GAME - Ship sim guessing game
Post by: Traddles on January 16, 2008, 15:17:19

They used to be called "companion ladders" when I were a lad. ::)

Title: Re: WELCOME... TO THE GAME - Ship sim guessing game
Post by: mvsmith on January 16, 2008, 16:58:01

Practice here is just to call them all ladders, at least in the Navy. “Companion way” is often used on passenger ships. Ships with stairs or “Grand Staircases” tend to sink.

The Latitude has only two flightes of stairs. The vermaas has three.

I just went on both and took a screen:

Well if anyone else wants to continue this game, I guess he or she could. As the topic starter is no longer on the forum. (Or so he announced)

On a serious note. Suicide is not a matter to be taken lightly. Refering to the topic starter's controversial remarks somewhat jokingly, might not be regarded as funny by most people.  ;)

Don't take offence!  I know you meant no harm!

Fred
