ok, fun game-ish community builder, or at least i hope so...


the rules:
1) ask any question of the person above you.
2) respond to asked questions by editing the post you made above the question.
3) do not ask a question of someone who just asked you a question.
4) only post another question after you have answered any unanswered questions.
5) please be nice; try not to ask questions that would result in a smack (or lawsuit) in real life.



here's an example of the first few posts:
  1. i post this thread.
  2. nukemm posts a question to me: "you like doing this sort of thing don't you?"
  3. netty4mac posts a question to nukemm: "how is your new kitty cat doing?"

  • at anytime after nukemm posts his question i can respond by editing my first post with the answer.
  • at any time after netty posts her question, nuke can answer by editing his post.
  • netty will wait for a question to be asked of her before she can answer (obviously).
  • and while i can now post again and ask a question, nuke can not until someone asks netty a question (see rule 3).

got it? cool! let's do this thing!


[answer edit: i just saw you in the "who's online" reading this and thought, "what are the odds" ;). so, to answer, yep. i do really enjoy it. i think it helps elevate a normal helpful site into one where the members really enjoy coming back and talking to people they feel they know a bit better because of things like this]

rman, what question thread did crossbones post?
[remember the rules! ;)]


edit with answer:
don't understand the game? it's easier than it looks maybe.
i'm answering you in this post - above your question.
someone will ask a question of you below your post.
answer that question in your post (#7).

questions can be pretty much about anything. how are you feeling? how did that memory upgrade go? do you have a myspace page? what's your stance on the WTO? is the real answer 42? etc.

Eric, I have a stock radio in my VW, I haven't bought an aftermarket one because I preferred to buy the Macky:)




I'm alittle confused......

My question to whoever----Do you like pineapple on your pizza?


EDIT:
Why don't we turn this into an "interview the next person"

ex. Netty4mac- Q: Do you like pineapple on your pizza?
Eric- A:Yes, I do
(To next person) Q: What color underwear are u wearing??

Nukemm- A: Green.
Q: Are u having a bad day??
Pulse-8-A: No, I'm not
Q: Is it raining??


and so on..

netty, your question would be for pulse-8. he would answer in his post above yours by editing it.

netty, do you have the stock radio in your vw, or an aftermarket one?

d'oh. maybe it was a little confusing. though you did edit the post with your answer (yay!).

you would ask me a question since you posted after me, but to keep two people only from asking each other lots of questions, i added the can't post a question to someone who just asked you a question rule.

eh. just ask whoever any questions y'all want to. :p

What happened to eric's game? I was trying to kickstart it off again....so I'll start again then.

I am taking your question to really mean is it annoying to live in mainland Australia's shadow?

Tasmania is lucky the sun rises in the east otherwise it might be annoying.

No, 'cos I was attacked by two of them on Christmas Day in a park and the owners were lying nearby and ignored the situation.
