aw s*** my game's running again and I don't even have to run it

I've always thought this game was the best idea but I've always been too inactive to take care of it properly

I do think the person who guesses it correctly should pick the next anon, rather than it being randomized. Rewarding the winner imo is a better way to run it than "letting everyone have a turn". Just me though, this is your show now.

edit: Also, I'm still not certain about things like this:
Quote:
- If someone guesses you correctly, but doesn't give reasoning or gives bad reasoning, DO NOT GIVE YOURSELF AWAY. You're still the Anon, their post will be ignored.

I never felt comfortable being a nazi about REASONING and I'm not sure how Blue ran it, but I hope you'll be a bit more lenient than that text implies. "reasonable reasoning" should be good enough imo

Haha yeah this game is super great, I thought it would have been a shame to let it die.

I've been thinking about this a lot, and I chose randomization because I feel really bad for the members who aren't very social but still want to participate, since with that old system of picking they'd practically never get chosen. Plus, I feel like the anon should be someone who wants to play, not someone who's being shoved into it. *shrugs* I want to think of some benefit to the person who guessed correctly though.

Oh yeah, it's just to remind the anon not to give themselves away to dumb players. Like if you were anon, and someone said "TerminX because lemonaid is cool", you shouldn't be like "WELP YA GOT ME" y'know? haha.

I've currently gotten five Anon requests. I'll be closing it sometime today and randomizing an anon. If you want in, send me a message asap.

I hear you. It's worth a shot, but the "aren't very social" thing is a big issue. A user who doesn't post much would be super hard to guess.

Also, since the person being chosen is allowed to refuse, they wouldn't ever really be shoved into it. (Dunno about Blue, but I only had that happen a few times anyway)

A gaming gift card to whoever guesses 5 people first would be nice.
