Only for you 6 players a special extension of the game: Post 3 numbers each, between 100 and 103200, I'll tell you just a model name and let's see what happens!
Can you find the makers?
+50 if you find it *,
-30 each one you skip,
-10 wrong guesses**,
-3 each clue you need.
You can have 5 clues, first I'll give you useless one, then,
when possible, more useful ones untill I'll try to help as much as I can.
No rules and no points here, just fun***!
*...but if you pick a maker already found by others (or by yourself) you'll receive 5, not 50.
(Why 5 and not 0? Because I won't make a list of all the makers already out and you should look back to check them all, so if it happens, you won't be too penalized.)**If you find the right name and the answer is correct but 'it's a matter of numbers' it means that the maker share its name with one or more others -Bugatti (1), Bugatti (2), etc..-.
In this case, your nearly right (or nearly wrong) answer will bring you -1.
***I won't be too 'professional' in this game...you played before now it's my turn to play with you!
This part of my archive is quite rough and for my use only...don't be surprised if something is not like it should be, it's a long story.
