Here's my idea for a new non-ending forum game. You ask a trivia question about someone else's campaign setting. Then, the first person to get the question right gets to write his own question about someone else's setting. Or similarly, the questions could be about one's own campaign setting, thus allowing some sort of confirmation. It could be an interesting and fun way to get people to look around at some of the other settings. We'll start with my first of the two ideas, and see how it works. The format I use next is just a preliminary concept, it can be formated in any way, really.
Here are a few ground rules - of course, we'll be going by the honor system, with no way to check up, but it would be nice if...
1 - You ask about settings you've read about, so that you have some sort of understanding, and you have a general knowledge of your "correctedness," and
2 - You don't just click on the thread and control-F the terms to quickly (and cheatingly) find the answers - try to read the stuff, so we can keep this game at least semi-constructive. Make sense? Good, I'll go first.
3 - If you know the answer to the previous question, but cannot think of a question of your own for afterwards, please do not answer the previous question. This will keep the flow properl
