    Two Truths and a Lie - a game

    We're too serious up in hurr, guys. Let's play a game.

    The rules are simple: You have to state three things about yourself. Two are the truth, and one is a lie. The poster below has to guess which it is, and then post two truths and a lie about themselves.

    I'll go first:

    - I prefer non-traditional breakfast foods.
    - My cat is two months younger than my tenure on this forum.
    - English is not my first language.

    Meh, I'm gonna say you're fibbing on three but I'm not entirely sure on that.

    I love pizza.
    I don't watch Doctor Who.
    I'm entirely too fond of whiskey for my own good.

Other things, like humanity, and mercy, and charity, that most good men hold more precious than all else, they do not come first for the Light. Oh, sometimes they are there; often, indeed.

    You are correct. English is my first language ....I would have guessed number two as being the lie for you.

    Is number three wrong?

    1. I own a guitar, but still don't know how to play it.
    2. My favourite beer on a hot summer's day is budweiser.
    3. My favourite ice cream as a kid was bubble gum.

    Actually I was fibbing about Whiskey . I'm familiar with Doctor Who due to SpaceBattles and watching Youtube clips but I don't actually watch full episodes.

    I think I've had Whiskey maybe twice and my opinion was pretty neutral at the time. Liquor of any sort tends to max out at, "Not bad, I may have a drink if I have nowhere to be in six hours." I go through more soda in three days than I do alcohol of any kind in most months.

    Anyway, I'm gonna say you're fibbing on Budweiser just because I've never heard anyone outside the US say anything positive about American beer.

    1) My favorite gun is a kind of shotgun.
    2) I do not enjoy coding in HTML
    3) I own a sword taller than some people.

    2 sounds plausible, I really want 3 to be true. So I'm gonna guess 1 is the lie?

    No I do own a ukulele. I'm rubbish at playing it, but I have one. It's 2, I don't like horror.

    Is 2 the lie?

    1. I've never been outside of Europe
    2. I prefer tea over coffee
    3. I play the piano

    2? Here I'm just guessing at random.

    Also I was fibbing about 1, I'm not a fan of shotguns. Pistols and some rifles, yes. Shotguns, not if I'm the one shooting them. Granted, upon examination, 3 requires that the person be pretty short. The sword reaches (including handle) my chest. Most adults will be taller but I've met some exceptions.

    1) I have never played a dark side character in Knights of the Old Republic
    2) My favorite character class in Neverwinter Nights 2 is warlock
    3) I have yet to finish Mass Effect 1.

    1 is the fib. Since you haven't guessed at my last one, I'll leave those in place till someone does.

    I'm guessing the second one is a lie.
