Forum Hide and seek
 
Why not do a forum version of hide and seek? Except this time we take a paticular word or phrase, plonk it into a post or topic, and send everyone on a wild goose chase for it. It would make for some good devling into old places just to find it :P much like that game Ronn just did :P

Sifting through 25,000 posts sounds a bit daunting O__o

Chris Britton April 17, 2007 6:13 AM

Ok, maybe not that many, you couple me specific as to where the word or sentance is, like in the Doctor Who forum, episode disscussion :)

Danny Stewart April 17, 2007 7:34 AM

RV can't go into the Episode Discussion forum as he's been locked out (so he doesn't spoil the episodes before he sees them).

Still, not a bad idea. Although the search function on the forums kind of misses the point. :P

Exactly what I was thinking.

Jez April 18, 2007 4:09 AM

Turn it off - problem fixed. :P

Sam Davies April 18, 2007 4:10 AM

Hey its a good idea I'm up for it.

Recurring Villain April 18, 2007 4:10 AM

You could make changes to the posts other than the addition of text.

Changing a post's text colour, for example.

Danny Stewart April 18, 2007 1:43 PM

Hmm. That wouldn't show up in search results.

Chris Britton April 18, 2007 2:17 PM

Well, lets find a word, hide it and there we are :P

That's the whole point...

Danny Stewart April 19, 2007 11:37 AM

Yes, exactly. I was emphasizing your point to the other members. :P

And here I was thinking you'd taken the mantel of Captain Obvious.

Jez April 20, 2007 7:57 AM

^^He thought you were Captain Obvious Danny!

*Goes back to air-drumming*

Sam Davies April 23, 2007 7:34 AM

Do we say what word we're hiding/

Danny Stewart April 23, 2007 10:49 AM

Heh, we haven't really done anything with this since the idea was submitted.

Jez April 23, 2007 12:05 PM

It could be "I've hidden a red word in the General Chat forum - find it....THAT'S AN ORDER PRIVATE!"

At which point, you would say "YES SIR!!" and find it. :)

I'd make it a whole post. And setting it between 2 dates would probably be a good idea.

Jez April 24, 2007 4:31 AM

Haha, I like giving people near-impossible challenges. However, it's only impossible if you can't be arsed to look. ;)
