Thought we could try a creative Forum Game to ring the changes a little
Its Called ....
I Wish .... based on ....
- First poster states their wish
- The following poster Grants the wish, but with a twist so that the wish is all but made useless, creativity and humour, especially in the reply are the centerpoint of the game. For example:
First Poster: I Wish I was a Millionaire
Second Poster: Granted, but you get it in Japanese Yen ....
The second poster after "destroying" the first wish, then posts their own wish. eg .....
I Wish I had an XR4 Sports Car
So ... I'll start it off with that one:
I Wish I had an XR4 Sports Car
