Well, What's happened to the trivia forum?

It's been months now since there was anything really NEW on this forum, it's just the same old long running so called games like "I think of a food E.G. pie, and you think of a food starting with the last letter of my word E.G. egg

What happened to the stuff that you had to actually THINK about before answering?

Hey Don-

I think a lot most of the time.Acronyms wear me out sometimes.My little brain fair aches after a joust with those girls.And add a letter is frustrating as well as difficult.Most of the threads provide good opportunities for wit and,as you will know,wit includes speed as well as humour.
What is at the top is what has evolved.
If I was to make a suggestion I would remove that sticky on Wargames and put your new thread in it's place so we have a place to discuss the health of the forum.We just have to live with the pipping fans.
It certainly isn't dull.Maybe you don't come on often enough and thus fail to pick up on the dark undercurrents.

Protected from what?Each item might well be first depending on what the danger is.

I guess you don't know the answer so why bother with the comments? It's okay not to know the answers sometimes, just keep the comments to yourself. =)

Why should he Meg, your invading his turf? With a great deal of insolent gusto I may add. You want to play snakes and ladders to the letter. Us guy's {how's that for American mimicking?} are here for the beer, not for our brain power, I get enough of that in the boardroom. Spends has to make important decisions regarding his tipple of the moment, he has no desire to screw his train of thought up playing arse holes.

I trust that puts you in the picture mate.

Hey meghaman-

You'll never live up to your self-styled user name doing simple word puzzles out of The Sun.They are designed to pass the time for those who the economy had sidelined for one reason or another.
This is a discussion thread in case you hadn't noticed.The newspapers are full of mindless puzzles.

Well I think it is very rude to take my post out considering I was responding to an already offensive post by someone else.

Rudeness is quite common in life and on here.

Look mate-read the first two posts on the thread.Go with what you find.Your puzzle was the sort of thing that one sees in kid's comics.There are battle weary veterans on here and they want a bit of fun in the main not brain numbers like that thing was.What could anybody learn from that?If you stick those letters on Google anagrams you'll get loads of answers.
Try Acronyms and see if you can give us a giggle.It's been pissing down here all day and I need cheering up.

No offence.Meghamann means Big Guy don't it.

Hey, Don! What game do you remember? You could always bring it back or ask someone else to. It's always nice to have something new to do on here. Got any ideas?

That would be "Weeze guys" or "We'uns"

As opposed to "Youse guys" or "all y'all"
:wink:
