One of the. players is elected captaiu. Well, she or he gits iv tho.middiQ of a circle and asks the first oiio a question. "What is the name of tliis ship?" Tho play^r'B; ans^Yer must begin with an ,A, Tho-next; player is asked ..thu same question.. Tjiis word roust begin with a B> And right round the room is thp question askod, and all the answerg must liegin with . letter. Then another question is asked, such as "What is the ship's cargo V Here again, tho , first player's reply begins with (HI A the second with a B, and so on. But Ihe captain should not start the circje. with the. game player all the time, or ho will be prepared with an answer beginning with an A every time. No, she must start at a different player each time, so that no one knows what letter will be used. As many questions as you like can be asked, and when a player cannot answer he or she pay? a forfeit.
