i think that would be too confusing. BTW i need to know how to post the picture so it shows up, instead of a link

Put exclamation points in directly in front of and behind the URL, no spaces. If you need to know anything else, click on the "What is Textile?" link under the box.

I think the beauty of the internet is that you might be located 12 time zones away and on one would know.

I'm also in GMT+8. Just do it.

I think you need to come up with some rules so this can work on a forum. I doubt that waiting for people to be on at the same time will work.

If my understanding of Millionaire is correct, only one person really plays at a time, and goes through a series of questions.

My suggestion to translate this to work within the thread is that one team will play at a time, which allows for multiple people to play and for the game to work more quickly. Meredith can leave a question up on the thread, and gives the team a certain amount of time to answer. (24 hours? Maybe 36?) In this time, the team can talk in private about how they want to answer/proceed. Anybody who answers when it is not their turn will be disqualified.

When the first team is disqualified, the game starts over with the next one, etc. The team with the highest score after everyone's played is the winrar and gets high fives from everyone.

How does that sound?

Cool! Also – Olivia, how do we stop trolls that are not playing from posting the answer on here? I mean, i'll delete ASAP, but surely someone from the playing team may see it…

Not much we can do, aside from keep an eye out on the thread and maybe have some stock questions on hand to replace them with.

But nobody's doing to troll this place. Right, guys?

Go for it :)

Edit: and do be clear about who is supposed to answer and by when; I'm not sure that everybody will read the entire thread/conversation to know what's going on.

Okay, so, maybe calming down needs to happen? Isn't the point of the forum game that you can take maybe a day before you've technically lost your spot, sort of like playing chess by mail? I mean, it was only, what, two hours, maybe less, before you decided it was taking them too long? So stop, and consider it an opportunity to work on your patience.
