Other forums I am on usually have an entire section devoted to thread games, such as “Say something about the person above you”, “Continue the story”, etc. I think it would be a cool thing to add, and it could be called “Being For the Benefit of Mr. Kite” since the song is about fun and games, as would the section. Anyone else like the idea?

This is a great idea! There are several forum games scattered throughout the forum, but I think it would be a good idea to put them all in one spot. If you want to make a forum games thread, I’d suggest putting it in the “All Together Now ” section. Or you can put the games in the “All Together Now ” section separate from each other. Or maybe Joe could add another section entirely for games, which is probably what you were implying, and the games would be separate from each other in that section. That’s probably the best option, if it is an option. (Joe?)

Here you go! I’ve moved this thread into a new section. It’s a sub-forum for All Together Now .

Now, can you do me a favour? If you know of any previous games threads scattered throughout the site, please post the links here. Then I’ll move them into this section.

Just a rough idea for a possible game:  “Mix & Match”

 

Take a line from one Beatles song, then switch one or more words from another song’s line. 

Here’s the only example I can come up with for now:

 

Help !  I need some money!” / “You never give me your body…”

 

If both whole songs could be monkeyed with this way, that would be cool.

 

Faded flowers, wait in a jar, till the evening is complete... complete... complete... complete...

Not to toot my own horn or anything, but that’s funny considering I’ve made quite a few games.

@Starr Shine?
I think the candid questions thread is more conversational. The 9 things about you is also conversational, but more games than the candid thread, and that’s in All Together Now .

The choosing between two things is a game, but people have said they like it where it is when this was discussed.

If I spoke prose you'd all find out, I don't know what I talk about.

I saw that picture earlier! It would be pretty perfect to do that in real life. a-hard-days-night-john-6

I hate the phrase too, just felt the need to use it. a-hard-days-night-ringo-4
