Playing on our sexist pre-notions much? <laugh>

1. False, I reckon you passed first time.
2. False, you've never been out of the country <laugh>
3. False, you love Spiders. You have a pet spider called "Man" <ok>
 
This is a thread about us posters. You write up to three facts/lies about yourself and the others have to guess what, if anything, is the truth. Questions are allowed. You don't have to wait for one set of statements to be resolved before posting your statements! Marshall law baby!

Gandalf points are at stake. +10.4 pts for correctly guessing if a statement is a lie or true, -10.4 pts if you're wrong. +13.76 pts goes to the person who wrote the statement if others guess wrongly. -3.2 points for every question asked of the statement writer. +2.5 points for every embarrassing fact shared.

I'll start us off;

1. I once did the half-time crossbar challenge at St James', I missed the entire goal all three times.
2. I stripped at school, in front of teachers and pupils.
3. I know Obi Wan (the poster) in person, as in before either of us posted on the internet.

1&3 Lies.

2 True.
 
All 3 of mine aare TRUE.

1. I was in the forces and stationed in Berlin. After a few (?) beers after a concert, I got on the tube and fell asleep. I woke up in the 'grey' area of Berlin.
Taken to the local polizei and had to waut there until my boss and CO turned up.
'Grounded' for the rest of the tour apart from offical concerts. Luckily I was in uniform

2. When I was renting a house in Yately, Tony Dorigo bought the house next door when he signed for Chelsea. We were chatting over the fence and he asked what I did. I told him, then asked him what he did. He told me he played football, so I said, 'For a sunday team?" His wife was very fiot and the flash git had a brand new Audi Quattro...was a good car back then.

3. I was sharing a house in Thatchem and Roger Freestone came and looked at the house. Later buying it.
 
1. I have three eyebrows

2. My brother plays professional rugby for the Scarlets

3. I once crashed my bike into a lake

1. False. It's either one or 2...
2. False, or you'd spend most of your time on the rugby forum!
3. True. Clearly after embarrassing fact Gandalf bonus points!

Sorry Gandalf, number 1 is true... It sort of goes |||||||||| ||||| |||||||||||||||||

Number 2 isn't, although his mate does. Watch out for a full-back called Dion Jones in the future, he'll probably play for Wales a few times, he's that good.

Number 3 is the bane of my life... I was on a track next to a lake in France. I rode over a rock which was like a rmap, lifting the front wheel into the air. While in mid-air, the handle bar clipped a tree branch (it was a narrow track), spinning it round. When it landed, the front wheel veered off to the right, taking me crashing down a 12-foot bank, covered in thorns, nettles etc., and into the freezing French water. I ended up stuck under the water with a bike on top of me, my leg bent around through the frame, my entire arm knackered with scars and a cracking bruise on the side of my face. Not a pleasant experience...

Brill Gandalf

1 correct
2 was stuck in this country & couldn't get to egypt <doh>
3 not frightened of spiders ... but no pet

I think the only way to do well in this game is to only post answers .... not try & guess .... am I right ?

Think 8 wrong answers ........ 13.76 x 8 = 110 .08

Points for my statements, now there's been some time to consider them;

1. False. I've never been on the pitch!

2. To my eternal shame... True...

3. I do not know Obi Wan... Well, I stalk him, but we don't mutually know one another.

Points awarded thus-
SM ... -31.2 Gandalf Points
Maestro... -10.4 Gandalf Points
ACS... +10.4 Gandalf Points

Number three is TRUE Gandalf - I am your father.
