How to play "Einy, Meeny, Miney..." ??

[numbuh82]

It's usually to decide whos on in Chase/tag.

Theres also Ible Oble Black Boble Ible Oble Out.

Theres aslothis Mother one.

My mother punched your mother right in the nose,what colour was the Blood.

Black.((Or any colour))

B.L.A.C.K. that means you are on in this game.

There was one using Fizzy drinks names as well but I forget that one.

Right I see, thankies ^_____^
there're so many ways to play this kinda game...
they're kinda interesting =] (at least, for me LOL)

;D

in Thai we have lots of games like that, too...
we have some using fizzy drinks names too!
and like, fruit, something like that...many many ways

[dizma]

in holland, it goes like:

iene miene mutte,
tien pond grutten,
tien pond kaas
iene miene mutte is de baas.

and then you can extend it with:

maar jij mag de baas niet zijn,
want jij bent nog veel te klein.
jantje heeft de krant gelezen,
jantje heeft de krant verscheurd
nu kom jij lekker aan de beurt.

it's long, and stuff.

we usually use fizzy drink names with rope-skipping.

I think 'iene miene' sounds like "Eeny Meeny" ?? xD
but it sounds interesting anyway, and, since it's from another country hehe

Oh, btw, can you (anyone, please) explain me (again) how to end the Eny Meeny Miney thingy? I mean, I just don't get it at all...how you end it with "My mother told me to pick the very best one and you are not it you dirty, dirty dish rag you, red, white, and blue." or the another version, but, still the ending. Do you point at anybody/anything while you say that sentence? I mean, it's kinda long, though...

Well hope I'm not annoying too much with this einy meeney...
I just wanna know, curious...
Try not to make it that serious, but still xD
I think I love this game! einy meeny miney...

oh well i think i sound silly now haha!!

[thesuki]

With the extensions, you point per world. Pointing will now be indicated by an *.

My* Mother* Said* To* Pick* The* Very* Best* One*

And so on.

Now for an example! I will decide who shall be it: 13xnat, numbuhD, or Numbuh 82.

Eeny (13xnat)
Meeny (numbuhD)
Miny (Numbuh 82)
Mo (13xnat)
Catch (numbuhD)
A Ti-- (Numbuh 82)
ger by (13xnat)
His toe. (numbuhD)
If (Numbuh 82)
He hol-- (13xnat)
lers let (numbuhD)
him go (Numbuh 82)
Eeny (13xnat)
Meeny (numbuhD)
Miny (Numbuh 82)
Mo (13xnat)

You're it, 13xnat! *runs*

[dizma]

omg! *runs*

yup, there's lots of different versions. but just use the one you want.

[numbuh82]

I think the most simplest though is Ibel Oble Black Boble Ible obel out.

You know what, I never thought it was possible to explain eeny meeny miney mo on the internet (granted, I never attempted 'till now...) But Suki pulled it off quite nicely.

Thank you. ^^

[numbuh13xnat]

thanks again, Suki!! ;D
that really helps!

so it's fine with or without the ending bit, right?

btw, in case using it in playing 'tag' game - after you have the one who's 'it' - you continue the game like in Op. 'IT' right??

but, anyway, i think i've asked too many questions XD
i think it's clear enough now...thanks again!

;D

[thesuki]

The ending stuff is just when you already know what you want, and REALLY want it to end on that.

Technically, the song ends at Mo.

Tag is a really simple game. The person who is It tries to tag someone else, and when someone is tagged, that person is It.

And I've always wanted to randomly tag people throughout the day on campus and see who starts playing.

[numbuh13xnat]

Okey Dokey and Thankies ;D

got it now XD

[thesuki]

Happy to help. ^^
