Look, DNS...if you and irish and DN enjoy the Games forum, that's swell, knock yourself out.
Personally I find it incredibly annoying and useless as a part of this BB, and it truly pisses me off when I open the board to find that the most recent 10 topics of the day are from the Games forum, because someone has simply gone from one game to another. As afsaneh77 points out, at one time the games messed up General Discussion, until JGeoff at least fixed that. Thank god for small favors.
I'm not claiming there's anything I can do about it and would probably not even have mentioned it were it not for your pointless beckoning of more people to venture into the forum. But since you did....it's been around for quite a while, much longer than you have, and I think that all who are interested has already entered and played.
Thanks for the opportunity...

Originally posted by DE NIRO'S SISTER: most of (the games) get you thinking. Originally posted by plawrence: For example? Never mind….. I did some thinking and a little research and figured out the answer on my own. This one really gets me thinking, so it’s my favourite: This game requires you knowing the alphabet! I will have to think of a word beginning with A and then the next person has to type a word with B then the next person C then D etc! When it gets to z start agin from A so on.....And then there’s this one: Someone posts a word, then the next player has to post a word beginning with the last letter of the previous word.
I'll start:
CatAnd also: Start off by answering the question to which country the city is in and then enter your own city
Eg-Toronto=Canada
Hers go's
LimaThat one caused a few problems, though, because the players seemed to have trouble making the distinction between cities, countries, and states. And, as Turi mentioned: The “I Just Ate” Game
I just ate spaghetti
What did you just eat?That one seems to be more for eaters than thinkers, though. Unless someone has to think real hard to remember they just ate.....

AppleOnYa Apple, I wish you would quit holding back and just tell us how you really feel. I never know what side of the fence you sit on.

DN'SS We're just having a wee tease, lass. Look the games aren't for everyone and those that like to play already do. Before the Games Forum even existed those threads were mixed with the others in this General Discussion forum. And popularity of them was split then and obviously still is. We used to have complaints then but as soon as the games got their own forum there's been no problem... ...up until now.

I'll start:
"I just farted"... all you need to do is post "X" every time you have a rear burp. Interesting idea :rolleyes: Now how does it work from here? I have to, um, "comply" with the rules of your game and post an "X" before I can post my idea for a game?

Looks like SC is a little too busy to come up with an idea for a game.
