And it doesn't really work out to well with my siblings at the dinner table (we're always sidetracking and quoting out of turn. Esigh.) So, if the moderators allow this, and we get to playing it--what fun! It kind of runs like this... FIRST PERSON POSTS: "Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the universe." -- Albert Einstein SECOND PERSON POSTS: "This man has insulted me!" -- Syme, G. K. Chesterton, The Man Who Was Thursday THIRD PERSON POSTS: "That raises a terrible question." -- C. S. Lewis, Mere Christianity Got that? Just follow the third persons lead. <img src="http://incredibooks.com/ibdiscuss/my-plugins/bb-smilies/default/icon_biggrin.gif" title=":D" class="bb_smilies" /> Sarah on "Author Guessing Game" http://incredibooks.com/ibdiscuss/topic/author-guessing-game#post-99 Tue, 13 May 2008 11:43:42 +0000 Sarah 99@http://incredibooks.com/ibdiscuss/ I'll start this game again. You post a book title, and once the author of the book has been guessed, a new book title can be posted.

Or, you can just leave it a mystery until somebody guesses.</li> <li>(Optional) Post some hints if it's a really tough one.</li> </ul> Here's a starter, with all of the optional elements.: Most writers know that a very clichéd opening is, "It was a dark and stormy night." Which novel starts with this sentence? Clue: The book won a Newberry award.

Yodeling Dwarf on "CotSK Tribe Building Game" http://incredibooks.com/ibdiscuss/topic/cotsk-tribe-building-game#post-4334 Sat, 24 Oct 2009 10:54:40 +0000 Yodeling Dwarf 4334@http://incredibooks.com/ibdiscuss/ Hey everyone, I just wanted to let those who haven't joined know about the tribe building game being put on by Wayne Thomas Batson and Christopher Hopper. Lots of cool prizes such as a real custom sword, books for life from both of them, and even a booksigning party in which they fly out to your area. But we NEED more people to play in order for it to even happen. Check it out at <a href="http://heedtheprophecies.com/theunderground/" rel="nofollow">http://heedtheprophecies.com/theunderground/</a> Thanks! Rebekah on "Random Book Titles" http://incredibooks.com/ibdiscuss/topic/random-book-titles#post-194 Mon, 26 May 2008 08:21:41 +0000 Rebekah 194@http://incredibooks.com/ibdiscuss/ Randomly pick three book titles that all start with the same letter and post them. You have to have read at least one of the titles you post. The person who posts next has to pick a different letter to start with, and they get to guess which of your titles you have read. If they guess one right, post with three new titles and a "So-and-so gets a point." You get a point for every title you guess right. We'll keep this up for three pages of posts, then count up the points. Whoever has the highest score wins! *** Motel of Mysteries Murder on the Orient Express Mossflower Pip on "You and Books" http://incredibooks.com/ibdiscuss/topic/you-and-books#post-2135 Sat, 27 Sep 2008 16:42:37 +0000 Pip 2135@http://incredibooks.com/ibdiscuss/ We all know we love reading books, so why not post a picture of yourself reading? Have someone catch you in action and post the picture here. It can be real artsy, like your hand grasping the page if you'd like to remain inconspicuous, or it can be a loverly mug-shot! <img src="http://incredibooks.com/ibdiscuss/my-plugins/bb-smilies/default/icon_eek.gif" title="8O" class="bb_smilies" />
