    Looking at some headlines on games got me thinking. As this forum seems to like "games" of sorts how about a "headline" game. The day after a Toon game everyone who fancies should post a "headline" for the game. The next day we all vote for the best headline and the winner gets.......................

    to win and crow over everyone else.

    The first part is easy but my techno skills can't even download a visible video never mind set up a poll, so if anyone is interested in doing the easy part (thinking of the idea is farrrrrrrrrrrrr harder) or if someone sends me an idiots guide as to how to do then I'll give it a go.

    Anyone interested?

    Yes.
    Will you cheat and manipulate the game like JPF does?
    If so, that's fair enough - nothing wrong with cheating.

    <doh> That goes without saying. Why on earth would anyone start a game without the "JPF rule" for the organiser.

    What's happening? The rules are nowhere near complicated enough for the Newcastle NOt606 board. So what's the catch? You have to post your headline in Japanese if you post on Sunday or colloquial Swahili if it's a Monday? Your poll result is multiplied by your age and divided by the numbers in your postcode? I don't want to play if there are no JPFesque complications.

    Just to remind anyone vaguely interested in becoming a columnist in the News of the World...or the Today...or wherever that you only have until midday today to submit your headline.
