Hello,

I'm a huge fan of the show and have been for years. I'm searching for some advice on a game I am creating for a MacGyver marathon this weekend. We're going to watch 7 episodes, 1 from each season. This game is for 4 people or so. You begin by randomly selecting 15 cards each with either common/less frequent/rare/super rare or maybe comical scenarios or actions. The concept is that you get 1 point every time one of your actions/scenarios takes place. The winner will get a pocket knife or something MacGyver themed haven't decided.

I want to make sure to put the right actions/scenarios in the right groups to make the outcome as close as possible. I got some of these from "MacGyver Drinking Games" posted online and came up with some myself. I'd really like some feedback on new ideas and if any need be moved or should be removed. Thanks for any help.

have you decided which episodes to watch?

[AussieMacFan]

Sounds good!

You could also add:

Murdoc makes an appearance

Penny makes an appearance.

just a thought

Needless to say, I'm interested

I haven't decided which episodes to watch. But I do have a few ideas.

We're going to pick the episodes at random. In my opinion they are nearly all good episodes. I'll add Penny & Murdoc for sure, any other ideas?

[MacGyverisms]

You could add:

MacGyver thinks Murdoc dies

Pete arrives on the scene just as things are wrapping up

A MacGyverism doesn't work

MacGyver almost dies

MacGyver wears a suit or tuxedo

MacGyver looses his Swiss Army Knife

MacGyver curses

Someone calls MacGyver "Mac"

MacGyver has or uses duct tape

if you knew which ones you're watching you could taller the list to suit those episodes.

On the other hand, if we make a general list anyone can then use it to play their own games when ever they like.
