Maybe this type of post is what I should avoid, but I couldn't find a mod who had posted anytime recently so here's my question :)

I thought of a game involving search engines that I wanted to play with the other members of the forum (ala Gizmo quiz). Should I take my silly ideas elsewhere?

Well, that demands a pretty straight explanation, which I may or may not have ;)

I think of a 5 letter search term and I tell you the number of results returned by a search engine (maybe not Google because the numbers can change so quickly!). I tell you the number of results pages the search engine returns. If no-one gets it in 5 posts I give you a clue. Or a letter, depending on how quickly you come up with the answer ;)

I probably have WAY too much time on my hands....

You don't have to look too far to find the mods that are WebmasterWorld postaholics. Some of us have been known to go on non-stop postathons. ;)

I'm not so sure that would be a such good idea, pixel_juice. There would be some who would deliberately post search terms as snitches, to get people saying "OHHHH... hey guys, look at that site at #1, wouldja!"

It can get pretty sneaky around here, we have to stay on our toes to keep one step ahead.

Thanks for your reply Marcia.

>>non-stop postathons

Looking at your posts I guess this includes you ;)?

I will haul my half baked ideas off to a lower class forum...
