2econd Friday - Where Next?
2econd Friday is Peter and Zoe’s four-year journey up and down Las Vegas Strip, here and there Downtown, and even beyond. They have a list of 48 destinations, one for each month of those four years. Well, actually, it’s currently only 47, as they’re hoping one generous hotel-owner might invite them to stay somewhere real swell for the final stay.
Each month, Peter and Zoe take it turn about to decide where to stay. The next month should have some sort of connection with the previous month, be it geographical, chronological, or some extreme vague-ery Zoe might come up with. The non-picker is invited, along with the rest of the world, to try to figure out the next destination, and what the connection to the previous destination is.
Here’s the current league standings:
Players can guess as many times as they like, for the Destination. Only one attempt at the Connection for the Destination can be given. Up to 10 Destination Points can be won (with the correct destination being a 10). If the Destination is correctly guessed, Remainder Points are awarded, based on how many attempts it took to find the Destination. And the big one is Connection Points. Up to 100 Connection Points are awarded, based on how correct the player’s Connection guess is. Occasionally, Head Points are offered, for players coming up with the answer in their head (ie. without the help of The Internet, or other such informational source).
