Game:How long will this post last?

Umm, not to interrupt your normal gameplaying (one game thread has over 23.000 replies), but......

Why does no one have anything to say that isn't troll-ish, or game-ish, and when someone posts a thread, it dies (goes at least to page two with no replies) within an evening? lol

Here's a game, might have been played before: How long will this post last?

Okay, dumb game. I say this post will last about a day. wink

*Ratatoskr, no as I understand it last post would be better if it scrolled down the page into oblivion. Then you would win!
The:idea: Idea here," I think ", is to keep it on top of the page or at least on the first page period:p

if it scrolls to the second page the game is over and the answer is known.
of course different people show a different number of threads per page?
or is that only for posts within a thread?

Is this a game to see how long a post will last in hours and minutes or a test to see if the thread will expire? The subject and the OP's explanation seems to be at odds with each other. I still take the beer option. up

29. August 2004, 01:31:04

Yes, the idea was to guess how long it would take to get to page two, and the game was over. Whoever came the closest as to how long it stayed on the first page wins. It's been past a day. I guess three days, three hours. The idea is to want people NOT to post in it.

Yes it is an icoherent and senseless game.....but many/most are.........p That's kinda the point. There are nothing but games here.....and the post of this game was in sarcasm. bigsmile

the winner gets a beer

Odd how seriously people can take a little ribbing. EDIT: myself included.p /EDIT
