After seeing this on many other forums around I thought I could share this with you guys so we could discuss if it was possible. We have numerous games like the general Association Game, the Story Games-which always die out, themed Association Games, General Quizes (I am not bringing the themed Quizes into this, they should stay where they are), What was the last thing you bought? and Neverending Story and so on. What if we made a sub-forum or a forum to put these games in? That way it could be easier to have more of these games at the same time, and there will be more room for other things in Off-topic (it would not constantly be bugged down by things like the Association Game) |

I quite like the sound of this. I enjoy the themed quizzes and the association game. It would be good to have somewhere for more of them to be running. It's good to have things to keep your brain active. |

I don't really mind either way. As a Matter of Interest why was the Center of Science Forum moved? |

Yeah, sounds like a good idea. Would we have it as a seperate forum, or perhaps as a sub-forum in off-topic? |

Subforum seems more appropriate as there won't be many new topics coming in and there only about 10 ongoing games ATM. |

I was actually thinking it could be a whole forum on it's own. |

Yeah, though it did not last for long. So far it seems people are positive towards this? |

I think Louise has a point. Off topic has been less active in the past months. But a forum game forum still sounds like a good idea because it may seem interesting to new people and it would be very cool for casual foruming. Additionally, it will, I am sure, motivate more people to make up more games. So I am up for it as well. I think it should be a separate forum. There is no point in making it a sub-forum, as this way, the Association Game will still appear on the front page as the "most-recently-posted-in-topic" in the Off Topic section. Besides, the idea is that people should see it straightaway if it is to appeal to the more casual forumers (people who are not into FHaG for instance). I am not sure if there should be a post count in this "Forum Games" forum...hmm... |

Off-topic will always have activity
It is the grand law of forums number one . I don't think there should be a post count in the Forum Games

If that's the case, maybe we could have a post count for off-topic? The reason we bannished the post count in off-topic was because of the activity in the association thread, anyway.

Agreed. And now that we move all threads that get spammed up to the German Spam Pit we can finally have topics which do not fit in anywhere else but are still serious enough so they may give us posts. |

I would not say it's that serious
, but a lot of debates in the "defined theme-" forums like Warhammer, LOTR, Star Wars, fHaG are often quite lacking seriousness. But they are fine and enjoyable threads yeah, and that's whats matters.But if posts counts returns to Off-topic it may be that I, at least, gets a bit more strict on posters there. |

Yeah that all makes sense to me. Of course that really means that Off Topic will be moderated as harshly as the other forums (which really is not that harsh at all - can anyone recall me in the site's first 6 months - that was true moderating. I guess Ariakas, I and the rest just ate too many donuts and now we can no longer do our policing around properly. Bah <_< Would we smack the forum games forum under that category at the bottom "All other things" or whatever it is called. And shall we not have a formal vote on this thing as well just to make it like in the good old times of the effed up polls? I can add one to the thread if it is ok with Ari...I mean Fizban Dantares?

I still carry on with our policing you twit! I even censure your posts from time to time when you forget our fiddlesticking rule of proper, polite language.
Yeah, add a poll to thread whether to have it down there or just below the "Off-Topic"-forum. In my opinion it should be down there but leave it for the people to decide. |
