4. Are you saying you never heard of Verbal tennis?
did you not know that in verbal tennis you have to answer every question with a question, or else your appointent gets a point?

were you just baiting me?

5. Is it possible that someone could be unfamiliar with the game?

16. that is a strange game, isn't it?
Every question should be answered with an answer followed by a question and the first unable to answer would lose the point, otherwise I could just be a wall and keep returning with "why do you want to know?" Or does there need to be an answer in the form of a question? And is that really possible, or is it fake like Jeopardy?
