Anyone want to play color or country?

Here is a quick overview of the rules:
-The game proceeds in turns. On your turn you may say either a color or a country.
-You may repeat colors or countries that have been used before.
-If you say something that is both a color and a country, you must specify which one you are referring to.

Now, here's the twist: if you say a country, you lose and are eliminated from the game. The last player remaining wins.

We could get people to sign up and set up a turn order, but honestly I think it would be easier to just start playing. I'll go first:

Magenta

What's the point of saying a country then like why even say one and not just say a color every time

It gets pretty intense. I got 2nd at the world championships in Frankfurt this year.

Also, Jake hasn't lost yet.

Also, Red

Edit: Jake, to take a turn you say either a color or a country.

saturnerianis · « **Reply #21 on:** December 15, 2016, 10:09:56 pm »

But if you say a country you lose.

The closest I can think of is burgundy, which is both a color and a region of that place with the baguettes.
