I got this idea from TaoRaven's thread (https://www.susans.org/forums/index.php/topic,154660.0/topicseen.html). Here's her explanation:
Quote from: TaoRaven on November 23, 2013, 07:07:02 PM
Anyway....there were a few new additions to the company, and so our district manager thought it would be fun to play the old "two truths and a lie" game. If you're unfamiliar with it, it goes like this....when it's your turn, you state three things about yourself, two of which are true, and one of which is a lie, and the group tries to guess which one might be the lie.
The way I thought it might work here is this: whoever wants to posts their 2 truths and 1 lie. People can then post which 1 they think is the lie. The OP comes back
after 24 hours the next day and posts the real answer. Taking turns would be too slow so everyone can take a turn any time (as long as they don't have a current 2T1L post up).
Make sure to identify which person's entry you're guessing.
Not sure if this is going to work, but why not give it a try? If you are reading this, go ahead and post something. ;)
Edit: It doesn't have to be exact, just sometime the next day (see bold text above).
I'll give people a chance to read the above before I take a turn. Go ahead and start anytime! I'll come back before too long and post my 1st post.
I once held an expert rating in chess
I am the direct descendent of a signer of the Declaration of Independence
I lost my virginity at age 14
Yay! A contestant! ;D
Thanks for playing J!
I'm guessing J's 3rd answer is the lie because it's the only answer that appears easy to believe.
I might as well enter the game while I'm here. hehe
1. I am a lesbian.
2. I have lived on a boat.
3. I generally prefer British TV to American TV.

I lost my virginity at the age of 16, in a 1969 Pontiac Firebird :o
hehe Cool. 8)
You're supposed to wait a day before giving the answer though. ;)
I think that your living on a boat is a lie - lets see what you post tomorrow
My go:
1. My brother was the founder of LGBT in my city state
2. I represented my country in the Irommanworld Chamionships in Hawaii
3. I have been married 4 times

This is a tough entry. Hmm...I'm going with...almost at random, #1.
Quote from: Joules on November 26, 2013, 05:48:58 PM
Wild toss here, but I'm going with #3, I bet you don't watch TV at all!
1. I once peed in both the Atlantic and Pacific oceans at the same time.
2. I own 8 computers, 9 monitors and only 1 keyboard.
3. I have spent 11 days in jail.
Hi Joules! *Hug*
I'll be back later to give my answer, but I'm guessing...#2 is the lie. The first fact sounds too much like a bar bet and well, it might be the third, but c'mon, only 11 days? hehehe ;)

1. I am a lesbian.
2. I have lived on a boat.
3. I generally prefer British TV to American TV.
1. This is the lie. Actually, I'm bisexual, leaning toward a preference for men. :)
2. True. It was when I was 4 and 5 (had my 5th b-day on the boat). We lived on a sailboat and sailed the entire U.S. east coast and went to the Bahamas.
3. True. I don't watch a
lot of TV, but I do watch it. A few of the shows I like are Doctor Who, Torchwood, and Top Gear (not just a guy show, they are
funny).
Me? ??? Respect for doing things right? Muahahahaha! :icon_evil_laugh:
I guess we're both good liars. :P
1. My brother was the founder of LGBT in my city state. True, I'm still in stealth mode and he is really famous.
2. I represented my country in the Irommanworld Chamionships in Hawaii. True did it 2 times and laso many triathlons
3. I have been married 4 times. LIE. I've only been married three times
Joules- guess you #3 theory works on me
and I thinky your number 1. has to be a lie. Logically, you can't pee in two oceans at the same time.
Quote from: warlockmaker on November 26, 2013, 11:41:50 PM

Split stream?
You can pee on the Atlantic and Pacific more directly at Cape Horn, Chile, where they meet. ;)
I guessed wrong, but if they're all lies, maybe not. hehehe
Okay, two more truths and one more lie.
1. I am a blood relative to the only person to have ever been the president of a country and the governor of two of the United States.

Going with my current method: picking the most vanilla answer. ;)
I took my first college-level class at the age of 12.
Sam Houston came from the hills of eastern Tennessee, Blount County; some of my close relatives still carry the Houston name. Log cabin types. He was the Governor of both Tennessee and Texas, and the President of the Republic of Texas.
I worked three summers while in college on a deep sea research vessel. Climbing to the top of the derrick, while underway, was one of the scariest things I have ever done. I now have a keen appreciation of what the tall ship sailors experienced, and why they lived (or died) by the adage, "One hand for the ship; one hand for yourself."

It better be 3! Because that is just too cute. >:(
Vizzini: You only think I guessed wrong! That's what's so funny! I switched glasses when your back was turned! Ha ha! You fool!

1. I was arrested for assault a couple times.

I find the very idea of eating a rodent revolting! Capybaras (aka chiguiros) are the worlds largest rodent. Apparently my aforementioned ancestors in the hills of eastern Tennessee consumed enough squirrel and rabbit to use the rodent quota for several generations.

I've had rattlesnake too (but not the others). Years ago when I lived in Holly Hill, FL, my neighbor saw a rattlesnake on the side of the road so he pulled over and killed it with an axe handle he kept in his car. He took it home and skinned it because he wanted to hang the skin on the wall but he didn't want the meat so he gave it to me. I cooked it up and ate it. It was okay. It's a tough white meat a bit like alligator. I guess the closest common food would be shrimp. :D
1. Lie. I was only arrested once for assault and mischief.
2. True. My parents used to go to Folk Festivals and bring me along.
3. True. Joules, we hitch-hiked to other places.
Ok revealing time *drum rolls* and the lie is... #3! My best friend isn't a satinist, though her boyfriend is.
Next round!
1. I've been drunk before.
2. I can't cook.
3. I sometimes see the future.

But they apparently encourage others to devour them. :icon_yikes:
Thanks for teaching me something new. I checked the wiki and also found:
QuoteCarl Linnaeus originally grouped rabbits and rodents under the class Glires; later, they were separated as the scientific consensus is that many of their similarities were a result of convergent evolution. However, recent DNA analysis and the discovery of a common ancestor has supported the view that they share a common lineage, and thus rabbits and rodents are now often referred to together as members of the superclass Glires.[4]

Okay, aren't 1 and 2 mutually exclusive? Maybe not; I guess you could be mean and loving but I'm guessing that #1 is the lie.
Here you go!
- I lost my virginity to a guy.
- Years before transition, I seduced a lesbian.
- I am a confirmed Catholic.
Good luck!

Mine were all true. Didn't you read #3? ;)
#1 was least true, though... but I say really mean things at times. My worst was recently - my wife kept blaming me and blaming me in chat, so I asked if she thought that maybe I'd still be in the closet if she hadn't pushed me so hard for a fourth kid (which was my big dysphoria trigger for the couple month cycles before I came out). I always regret saying those things... but you can never take them back.
#3 few people in my life believe right now... but it's true and has been true for a long, long time. (I will withhold the truth as needed - I withheld that baby #4 was a dysphoria trigger from my wife... but someone told her who shouldn't have).
Ok here we go:
- I ran a spotlight for a Buddy Rich concert
- I have never flown in a helicopter
- My feet are shaped differently and look like they belong to 2 different people
Sydney, i guess 3.

Lol it's kinda hard to make guesses without being offensive-ish.
Hmm don't know too much about anybody here, and I'am sure it's mutual but...
Sydney_NYC Ima say 3 is the lie.
Jill_F I'll say 3 is the lie. But either way that's way cool.
1.) I'm over 6 ft tall.
2.) I'am actually a cis-female who transitioned to male early, and is going back to female.

- Years before transition, I seduced a lesbian. True. Shortly after I turned 18 I spent the night with a lesbian who'd been my quasi-girlfriend for a time.
- I am a confirmed Catholic. Lie: Though I was originally baptized and raised Catholic, I was never confirmed.
Jamie D wins. Round 2:
- I've been to Power Exchange in San Francisco.
- More than once.
- I've been affixed to a St. Andrew's Cross.
Enjoy. ;)
- I had 5 attempts at suicide.
- I have 3 acoustic guitars, one of them is green.

Although I am left handed and have actually handled all of the above, I am a right handed guitar player. Tony Iommi (that's Black Sabbath, folks...) is a lefty and I only just plucked the strings. I played "Kashmir" on Jimmy Page's DADGAD Danelectro while it was being serviced electronically and got to spend an afternoon with an acoustic that once belonged to Blackmore while the current owner recorded with one of my basses. I also once got to fingerf^&* Blackmore's old Gibson ES-335 at a guitar show. I so wished I had the $75K to buy it at the time! I know for a fact Blackmore wants it back after he lost it in a divorce, and I know where to find him.
So yes, #1 is technically the lie...

Enjoy. ;)
Okay, time for logic.
If #2 is true, than #1 must also be true, meaning #3 is false.
If #1 is false, then #2 must also be false, so #1 can never be a lie
That leaves us with #2 and #3 as the only possibilities.
C.A. uses the term "affixed" in referring to the Cross of St Andrew. And C.A.'s family name suggests to me a connection to a Catholic Scots-Irish background. Careful wording leads me to believe #3 is a true statement.
Therefore I disbelieve #2.

I hope 1 is a lie, but i know this world too well so I'm going 3.
Ok big (and late) reveal!
I've gotten drunk many a times before.
I in fact CAN cook, really well in fact.
I've recorded myself seeing the future in 3 diffrent dreams, as crazy as it sounds, though when you write it down after the dream but before it happens theres no denying it.
Xhianil was half right ;), but #2 is actually the lie.
This is so interesting more players please! :D
I read the coming out post and immediately thought it'd be a good idea for a game here, but i was not sure if it would work in a forum. but i see it's going pretty well here, so here's my go.
1. my full birth name has 35 letters in it, written in english.
2. i can read and write 6 languages.
3. i sat on a sleeping tiger when i was about1yr old.
Well since I'm new I'll join the games.
Shelly I'm guessing number 3.
Outlaw I'm gonna go with 3 here too... If it is true than, poor kitty.
1:I've never been in an Aerial vehicle of any kind.
2:I've written my own book but am too shy to share it.
3:I can't swim.

- My feet are shaped differently and look like they belong to 2 different people
I disbelieve #2
Jamie is the first one to get it right.
- I ran a spotlight for a Buddy Rich concert - My band director in my NJ high school was personal friends with Buddy Rich. TO help raise money, Buddy Rich did a concert in our auditorium and me and two other students worked with his crew.
- I have never flown in a helicopter - Got to flow over the Grand Canyon in 2009 by Helicopter with my wife. Absolutely breath taking!!!!
- My feet are shaped differently and look like they belong to 2 different people - My feet really do look different.
After how much time do you peeps usually reveal? Just 'cause I don't want to too early or too late.

Okay, let's do this logic thing.
The clue to the context of the three above statements lies in the first item, and within that context a Saint Andrew's Cross is something used BDSM (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saint_Andrew%27s_Cross_(BDSM)). Power Exchange in San Francisco, which I have been to more than once, has at least 2 of these fixtures to which I have never been affixed.
Items 1 and 2 are true, and item 3 is a lie.
Edit: Another clue lay in my reply to the 10 random facts about YOU (https://www.susans.org/forums/index.php/topic,149066.msg1278764.html#msg1278764) thread.
Oh my! The wrong cross!! :icon_redface:

1. true. my surname alone has 16 letters. too bad nobody guessed it. maybe i should've put a better truth.
2. not a chance. i'm rather weak in languages and stuff. i read and write 3 and speak only 2
3. believe or not it's true! when i was around that age we went to a zoo which claimed to have tamed animals, and they would let us enter the cages and touch them, take photos and so on. for dangerous animals they would let us go near when they are asleep. so mom had taken me to the tiger and made me sit on the sleeping tiger like on horseback. years later an incident happened in that zoo where an animal attacked a child and the investigations revealed that the animals were actually drugged to doze off. eventually the zoo was banned, but i did sit on a sleeping tiger

Lie. I actually had 7. Most of the time my best friend found me after he couldn't reach my via phone and started looking for me. Hungarian Healthcare is really bad but not that bad that they couldn't save me.- I have 3 acoustic guitars, one of them is green.
True. Her name is Sophie and she's my absolute favourite.- My first sexual experience was with my roommate in the high school dormitory.
True. I was 15, he was almost 15, we gave each other a ->-bleeped-<-. Not very proud of it though.

My three:

2. I've never drunk a drop of alcohol, never partied, and been in a dive bar exactly once in my life.
3. I never got below a C in my entire school career.
#1 is true. I also have siblings at various other age gaps. But three are quite neatly separated.
#2 is true. I am, in the common vernacular, somewhat of a prude. (Also I went to Wheaton, high on the short list of worst party schools in America.
#3 is false. Once in my life I got a D (in Calculus 1; I had to retake the class), and my father grounded me for a month. I was terrified of underachieving thereafter.

1 is true--my maternal grandfather; he was still a teenager & was likely drafted, but he also held strong nationalist ideals his,whole life so I wouldn't be surprised if he wanted to join.
2 is the lie. I did once have the goal of becoming a pastor, however.
3 is true. I relocated to be with him. We're divorced now & this is a good thing.

1 is true, absolutely-I can remember that far back, too. If you put in front of me, I could read it, menus, newspapers, etc.. Oddly enough, I didn't really start talking until then, either.
3 is true as well, I've had all the traditional hair colors, only person I know who has done that.
That leaves 2 the lie, and well done Andrea! How so? Only one guy on my mother's side, by blood, my cousin, and he likes guys. So nobody on her side is attracted to women, due to a guy shortage. Crazy one, isn't it?

Number 1 is indeed a lie. Though I started reading

Good morning, players! Well, #3 is the lie. My wife's first car was a '66 Mustang. Mine was actually a '77 Chevy Malibu.
#1- I didn't actually play on the NCAA team, but I played intramural and "unofficial" tackle games at UC Santa Barbara. I was relentlessly recruited by members of the official team, but I refused to take the requisite steroids. I was a pretty good weak side outside linebacker that ate quarterbacks for breakfast.
#2- I met Slash at a bar near a SoCal NAMM convention about 15 years ago. It went downhill from there. Somewhere there's a picture with me wearing his signature hat. The resulting hangover was legendary, requiring some "hair of the dog". I still hate Heineken.
Okay I love this game so I'm going to try too!
1. I am one of the top ten rated woman chess players in my home state. But yet at my local chess club people express shock upon learning that I know how the pieces move.
2. I have a green thumb for African violets only. All other plants die when I touch them.
3. I came close to being appointed by the President of the United States to a fairly senior position in the U.S. Department of Agriculture earlier this year.
I'll do the big reveal tomorrow! If there's anyone on the board who knows me in real life, it's no fair answering because you'll probably know which is the lie!

Jill that's really cool you got to drink with Slash. He was the reasons I loved top hats as a kid.
@ThePhoenix - I am going to guess #2 because death touch for plants tends to cross all plants.
I guess I'll play as well.

I'm guessing #2 because it seems like an anatomical impossibility for an ankle to be double jointed.
Ok, I'm going to do another one (hopefully it's allowed)
- The DMV department tried to arrest me for falsifying my identity when they could not verify my birth certificate.
- I've been electrocuted twice and should have been dead by now.
- I have a dent on the top of me head hidden by my hair where I was attacked by a dog when I was 5 years old.

Um ok I'm going to say number 1 because we all know that ninjas are better than pirates.
@Hayley: I'm going to go with the rotator cuff injury. I'm guessing you were a high-level ball player, but suffered a different injury!
@Edge: I'm going to go with playing guitar. You strike me as a bass player. Oh, and for the record, kids in high school used to call me "Pirate Boy".
Everyone who guessed #2 was right. I'm like the #7 or 8 woman chess player in my state. I have a green thumb for everything but African violets. I grow my own peppers, tomstoes, herbs, etc., but Aftican violets always die on me. I did come close to an appointment until something went awry and I don't know what it was. It was kind of odd that I even got considered since my background in agriculture is limited to growing a home vegetable garden.

Number 1 was my lie. I never made all state. I did ruin my rotator cuff. Baseball for bascally 13 years. 1/2 to 3/4 of the year pitching and throws in from the outfield wore it down. Takes a lot of effort to get my left arm up past shoulder height.
Number 2 : I do have a "double jointed" ankle. Saying double jointed is a bit misleading. I'll post pics of anyone wants to see what I am talking about. It doesn't look pretty
Number 3 : I do have a half sister. She and I have never met despite going to same schools.
@Marieee : TWY are so amazing esp live. The best music to cheer me up.
1. True. I dressed like a pirate in high school.
2. False. Sadly, I did not play guitar in a band. I tried learning to play guitar, but it was not to be. I tried learning to play bass too, but my sister got pissed because I was "copying her."
3. True. My impulse problems are social. I say things when I really shouldn't.
Sydney, I'm going to guess 3.

Ok, I'm going to do another one (hopefully it's allowed)
- The DMV department tried to arrest me for falsifying my identity when they could not verify my birth certificate.
- I've been electrocuted twice and should have been dead by now.
- I have a dent on the top of me head hidden by my hair where I was attacked by a dog when I was 5 years old.
Wow, umm, #1? All believable, but #2 and #3 seem more so. I've been zapped so many times I can tell you the approximate voltage now. Who needs a meter?
OK, one more... Sports edition time.
1) I can dunk a basketball
2) I am the worst bowler I know of
3) I have made a hole-in-one

I'm guessing 2. There is always someone worse.

I bet you're an excellent bowler.
1. The first man I dated believed he had demon living inside him.
2. I'm a boxer
3. I've been stabbed seventeen times.

I certainly hope that #3 is a lie! :-\

I'm going to guess #2 as well. As said there is always someone worse.

Though I hope #3 is the lie but I'm guessing #2. I could see a guy who believes he has a demon inside him stabbing someone.

All believable. #1 is very believable- I've known plenty of those. Did he play in a metal band as well? #2 went down OK. Boxing is great cardio. #3, I'd hate to believe it as well, but we all know it happens. You also could have been stabbed sixteen or eighteen times, so I'm going with #3.

So yes, #1 is the lie. I am not only the worst bowler ever, I am the worst basketball player as well. Despite having great manual dexterity, I am a complete klutz. #3 was done in miniature golf. In bowling I am lucky to not have a gutter ball every time
1. The first man I dated believed he had demon living inside him. He was... interesting. The biggest guy I've ever known, surprisingly the demon was more stable than him. No to the metal band, but he was a great enthusiast for them.
2. I'm a boxer I've always wanted to become one but never have had the chance.
3. I've been stabbed seventeen times. I suck at disabling people.
Congrats to the people who guessed correctly :-)

LOL
You are correct however .......
1) The DMV department tried to arrest me for falsifying my identity when they could not verify my birth certificate.rr
False - Although this didn't happen to me, it did really happen to my brother. He has a traditional girls name and a NC birth certificate.
2) I've been electrocuted twice and should have been dead by now.
True - once with a 120V 15A circuit and another with a 220V 30A circuit and with that one I was standing in muddy water with boots on wiring a well pump.
3) I have a dent on the top of me head hidden by my hair where I was attacked by a dog when I was 5 years old.
True - I was attacked by an Afghan Hound and had 20 stitches in my head.
Damian I'am so sorry to hear that :(, I hope your alright. It's terrible men use guns and knifes on unarmed people, they're obviously not men and just cowards >:(. I've taken 3 different Martial Arts(TKD,Karate,Kung Fu) briefly and studied many more. PM me if you'd like, maybe I can help. Don't want you to get hurt again.
I'll play again
1.) I've cracked the back of my skull twice.
2.)Been mistaken for a girl/women 3 times in my life before I had thoughts about being TG, People look confused when I first meet them.
3.) I won $500 dollars on a scratch off ticket from work.

Picking #3 here Shelly. The phrasing is off, you don't "had read" something! It is "DO" or DO NOT"!
In quoting, I see your HTML, interesting ;)
Quote from: Constance on December 10, 2013, 04:38:19 PM
I'm going to guess that #2 is the lie.
If I were to make the same claim, even if it were true, my own mom would have me utterly destroyed! :D

- I'm raising a camel. - I actually do. ;D Her name is Baroness Heide von Hugenstein. (https://www.teveclub.hu/leltar.pet?usernumber=17766)
- I cook better italian than my mother (she's a professional cook). - Unbelievable as it sounds, I do. I was prohibited from cooking at home for a good 2 years after my brother stated this in front of my mother. :-\
- I did read The Iliad for the first time when I was 11. - I read it at the age of 9. Still a favourite.
