back-to-back posts are the reason why I didn't play much lately.
I go highly animated into a game thread and see continuous replies by the same player and that just lets my motivation drop and at times I won't answer at all.
Seeing that those threads, I didn't feel like answering at all, got longer and longer is not helping.
My Flirtversary is this Friday, though, and I wanna reach 8000 posts until then 
. So I came back and try to ignore this ... as apparently lots of people are used to do here for a long time already.The few times I tried to point this out "during a game", I got snatched and silenced
.I wear glasses, please don't hit me.

If a post like "Model name game" was not replied for over a month - I has a back to back reply a few times .
I saw new names replying to a song title thread from A to Z .
It seemed they were having fun
I rather seeing people have fun that no one playing the games .
I do understand some games like "Rhyme game" is a competition for OurJeffie .
1 reply and wait is how it has been done .
We need a compromise that allows some games to be replied ad lib and a few games a single reply .
I enjoy playing games with EVERYONE .
Chris , Derek , OurJeffie and OutbackPrince - How about allowing some topics to have multiple replies and some topics with 1 reply ?
Everyone who plays here should always have a voice
cOOkies and rOOtbeer for all

.I am concerned about recent developments on the Games Forum ... and confused if I should take a break for you to sort it out or ignore ourjeffies protesting posts.
I was hoping when the models are allowed back here, we would NOT be a total mess. I agree there are games where it doesn't matter much if double posts are given, but with other games it would matter (to me). Quote

These games may have multiple entries .
I won't chose games started by other people at this time .
This is a compromise .
OurJeffie and OutBackPrince prefer no back to back replies .
Chris and I think it is ok with some games .
Later Chris may add games that he started later .
Games that can have back to back replies :
1 - Word Association - Fictional Character [ Started with Derek's ideal ]
2 - Song OR Artist - A to Z
3 - The Food Chain
4 - TV Show OR Movie - A to Z
5 - Celebrity Chain Game
6 - CRAZY Emotions Song Thread
Games that have only 1 reply at a time :
1 - Rhyming game
2 - New Word Game - Change 1 Letter
3 - Never ending 4 letter challenge [ Started by Sweet ]
4 - Numbers Game
This is NOT set in stone
OurJeffie like to compete and should be allowed to continue .
Derek likes to do multiple replies ; 6 identified games that is ok to post more than 1 reply .
Other people speak up and discuss . We will see how it works .
Topics started by other people will stay 1 reply until otherwise designated .
Chris stated some threads are ok .
I hope this will make game forum be smoother and without arguments/protests
Remember a NEW THREAD can be started and the person starts it with their rules ***HINT***
I will occasionally "bump" a topic with a back to back reply . It takes me 30 minutes to play most the games in the forum . I am getting slower every year .
Chocolates and icey fruit drinks are still here to CELEBRATE Chris' 1st Flirtversaru

BUT it's a complex set of rules where one simple rule would suffice : 'No back to back posts'. This has been the implied rule all along
The fact is that all except one player have been happy to abide by this implied rule, only one player routinely makes back to back posts Quote

I was trying to keep "competitive games" with normal 1 reply .
Also allowing multiple replies in 6 games that are for fun and not competitive .
I am not trying to get things complex .
I think Model Name Game is the main games that I bump after a month on no replies . I also post back to back - only at a slower rate .
Thank you OurJeffie for the compromise .

Thank you gentlemen
.Now for the games, I created (including restarts):
Double posts allowed:
> [Reloaded] Kinky Words Game
> The ABC of Classical Music, Opera and Instruments
> *** REMOVED GAME ***
> Flirt4Free Gazette - New issue!
> ChitChat Café - Discussions, ideas and thoughts about current, future and past games
one-by-one posts only:
> [Reloaded] What would you do?
> Don't Touch that!!!
> My cOOkie!
> Alien Invasion!
> Three curious facts about ...
> [Do-it-yourself] Impractical DIY Projects
Personally, I don't like double posts on ABC/A-Z games, because that makes me feel like I will NEVER get to a certain letter. However, I follow LickaU's example and make this suggestion on the basis of competiveness or degree of dialogue.
I don't think LickaU has to worry about the Model Name Game any time soon. Did you see we had another player during the July 4th weekend? Quote
