Probably Galz-REE-AH, which isn't incorrect exactly, but it's an extension of the natural flow (to me).

Y'know what? Let's proceed.

I have a rule.

Insomniac · « **Reply #627 on:** December 20, 2012, 12:49:21 pm »

GUESS: No questions have the answer yes
GUESS: No questions have the answer no

I've always said "Galz-REE-YAH" I can also understand "GALZ-RYE-YAH"

But I can't think of a way for it to actually be 2 syllables.

I have a rule.

Guess: must contain no words longer than three letters = yes
Guess: must contain no words longer than four letters = yes
Guess: must contain no words longer than five letters = yes
Guess: must contain a word longer than five letters = yes
Guess: must contain a word longer than four letters = yes
Guess: must contain a word longer than three letters = yes

Ugh is Galz-ree-ah a troll?

jotheonah · « **Reply #631 on:** December 20, 2012, 01:00:38 pm »

Didn't the original game have rules about how many guesses you can make?
Isn't that important so it doesn't devolve into 20 questions?
Does your rule smell like a cat?
Does your rule smell like a dog?
Am I larger and more terrifying than your rule?

Galzria · « **Reply #632 on:** December 20, 2012, 01:02:36 pm »

Did Joth actually look at the rules on page 1 before suggesting that I cannot simply post all guesses and no questions?

All pending guesses have been disproven by the above.

Let me try out something. What is the answer to this question here?

jotheonah · « **Reply #635 on:** December 20, 2012, 01:08:37 pm »

How do you say Galzria's name?

Is Volt the Oracle?

Guess: Question has 13 words = yes Incorrect. "Will this question, which has thirteen words, come back with the answer 'yes?'" No.

Grujah · « **Reply #640 on:** December 20, 2012, 01:20:43 pm »

FWIW, I knew joth's rule was about language or grammar or pronunciation but as English is not my first language and it sucks when it comes to stuff like pronunciation and spelling I wasn't too hot with guessing it..

Guess: has a word that starts with a lowercase "h" - answer is yes; otherwise no.

Grujah · « **Reply #641 on:** December 20, 2012, 01:21:58 pm »

Guess: has thirteen words and odd number of non-space, non-letter characters - answer is yes; otherwise no.

Already disproven.

What if a question has nine words in it?
What if a different question has ten words in it?
If a question had eleven words, would that make a difference?

Ozle · « **Reply #645 on:** December 20, 2012, 01:31:16 pm »

Is the answer Yes?
Is the answer yes?
Is the answer NOOOOOO!

Insomniac · « **Reply #647 on:** December 20, 2012, 01:42:54 pm »

Guess: Number of punctuation including the question mark is even = yes

Ozle · « **Reply #648 on:** December 20, 2012, 01:43:03 pm »

How about this? Is this it?

Insomniac · « **Reply #649 on:** December 20, 2012, 01:44:41 pm »

Bah I'm wrong unless Volt accidently answered "If a question had eleven words, would that make a difference? No." incorrectly
