Headscratchers / Game Night

• What was the answer to the second riddle? "I'm brown and old by day, white and young by night. My eyes are glass. I have nine faces and no head. I sing to the sky but have no voice. I'm everywhere but nowhere."
  • The moon. It is new at night and old by day. It has 9 phases beginning with and ending with the new moon.
• The answer is "They wanted to use games the average viewer recognizes" but the games they bring a seven-person game party invoke head scratching among board game nerds. Game of Life, Clue and Scrabble. They're all reasonable games, but:
  • Life is more for kids and is four players.
  • Scrabble is a popular game but also four players.
  • Clue is for six players (still less than seven!), and again has more of a "kids game" connotation, though not as much so as Life.
