View Full Version : Family Affair wrong answer game
sixfingers 10-07-2010, 12:58 PM You may have seen this on other borads, one person asks a question, the next gives a wrong answer and asks a question of their own.
The question should be based on actual events on the show. For example, "who stole Buffy's car?" would not be an appropriate question, since Buffy never had a car stolen during the course of the series.
I'll give an example and a response.
