Forums: The Hangman Game

I thought of a new game, it actually came to me in a dream. It's like Movie Title Hangman. It will only work if the original poster is around to tell the people when they get the answer right, so if someone takes off and doesn't keep up with their original post after a couple of days, someone else can make the call and start a new one. It just works like I post a movie and tell how many letters, etc, it is, and you guys pick the letters and I post back telling you where they go. It will take some time, but it could work. Only one person can pick a letter at a time, and then they have to wait till the poster fills it in for them. Anyone can guess at any time, regardless of who was the last person to suggest a letter, and whoever guesses correctly gets to post the next one. I'll go first:

Let me know if you guys think this game sucks and we'll can it.

I'm still working on how to get the blanks to show up properly. You can't use underscores or they run together. If you use hyphens you have to space the words very far apart to get a space to show up...and then they're very small. But here goes. I'll try making the font size bigger.

That seems to work.

How about this?:
_ _ _/ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _

and as for the hangman itself, i don't know how you were planning on doing it, but this looks good to me:

Back to the game... How about a T

That looks like it will work, although with so many people playing at once, I don't know how many men we'll hang. Anyways, I thought of doing words on seperate lines to make it simpler. How does this look?

A--AT--

Maybe in the future, we can set it with categories, like names of movies, or actors, or directors, or even famous quotes. We'll get used to just titles first, though.

The Aviator?

Since I'm pretty sure it's right...
