A to Z game

Postby lazza » Thu Oct 06, 2005 6:50 pm

Here's a game we used to use to pass the time in our lab at university. The rules are that a topic is named, and you have to name something in that topic that starts with an 'A' then a 'B', etc. (in a small group, everyone has to name something starting with 'A' before moving on to 'B', but I suspect that won't work here... :? :roll: ) Whoever names the 'Z' word starts the next topic.

EDIT: I am happy to accept (verified) answers in any language!

EDIT2: Thanks to mrclfrtjs for listing the first 50 topics (reached on 24 January 2006). They were:

1. COUNTRIES
2. Rivers
3. Nobelprizewinners (with year and category)
4. Capitals (country) -> in the country language
5. automobile brands
6. currency names
7. Beer brands
