    For lack of a better name...

    This is a game I'd like to try. It's easy to play.

    Rules/Format

    1. No sign-ups required. You send me a PM with one fact about yourself that you don't think people will readily know. Try to choose something unique and interesting. It can be related to PS, but it doesn't have to be. Also, try not to make it insanely difficult (e.g. "I was born at 9:00 in the morning" is too hard).
    2. Once I have enough PMs (maybe around 10+), I make a game where people try to match the user names to facts.
    3. Guesses are submitted through PM. Once all PMs are received, or the deadline has passed (will probably be 2 or 3 days), then I reveal the answers, the winner, and open the thread for post-game discussion.
    4. The person who matches the most names to facts correctly wins.
    5. I'll be including a few names of people who didn't send me PMs to make the game challenging. I suppose you can send me a PM just if you want your name to be included for the sole purpose of misleading people (without sending me a fact).
    6. Anyone can play, whether or not you sent a fact. If you submitted a fact, then you have the advantage of knowing your fact matches to your name, and will match at least one correctly (I hope).
    7. Have fun. No cheating, either inside or outside this thread. Etc.

    This is only the information thread for the game, to ask questions about the format or details. This game has no sign-up. If you read this and like to participate, then send me a PM following guideline #1 or 5.

    I typed this quickly, so it may be confusing. If you have any questions, ask here.

    Note that this is only a trial game. Whether future games like this are played will depend on how much interest this game garners.

    Thanks for the PMs, all. I'll close sign-ups in about 12 hours and start the game then.

    Not one-time. Probably one game every 2 weeks. I needed to see if enough people were interested first. I don't see a PM from you btw.

    Ok, the game has started. If you wanted to send a fact PM but missed the deadline, you can send one next game.
