The premise for this single question game is pretty simple. There will be a list of ten single question topics. As an author, you choose one of the ten topics and write a question on it. After you have chosen your topic, you remove it from the list and add a topic you want to give to other authors at the bottom. Here are some quick rules:
1. In your post, you should include the topic you are taking and the new list with the topic you have added at the bottom. There should always be 10 topics.
2. Please don’t choose a topic that you have added to the list previously. Try one that another player has offered.
3. You must finish submitting the single question you have claimed before claiming a new one.
4. You may post twice or more in a row as long as you are following rules 2 and 3.
5. If two players have posted at the same time, the first player gets first dibs. If you haven’t chosen the same topic, the second poster can always re-post with the updated list.
I think that should cover it.

I'm glad to see authors getting a lot out of this game! I also like that we often have a diversity of topics, and that some of those are ideas that are not well-traveled on Funtrivia already. But I do suggest we be a little bit careful about including topics that are so specialized or advanced that the vast majority of players and authors will struggle with them. I sometimes enjoy reading up on a new topic and writing a question about it, but when it takes more than an hour to read up and research the topic (I have done this before), then that topic will likely stay there for a while and gum up the thread because authors are too busy to tackle it.

"Enid Blyton has ascended happily to Literature. In her place, I have installed B.P.O. Elks (hoping that this nomination does not violate trident's suggestion)." Looks just fine to me. I think we just don't want too many difficult topics too quickly. Reply #158. Aug 08 20, 7:00 PM |
