Okay, so I’ve hosted games on here based on TV game shows before. Three StraightDope Jeopardy’s (so far) and one Who Wants to Be a Millionare that had about 5 people in “the hot seat”. I was thinking about maybe hosting Family Feud next (which, I think, is called Family Fortune in the UK). For anyone who doesn’t know what this game consists of, it’s two teams who name things in certain categories, such as “Name something you do that some people need eyeglasses for”. Anyway, I’ll write up the whole rules and details how it will go online once I get enough willing players. I figure I could have a really good game with 20 players, however I could probably get by with 12 or 14. Also note, you **WILL NOT** have to be online at any given time or really very often to play. This will be a go-at-your-own-speed kinda game, so if you’re not on constantly in a day, that’s fine. Just at long as it’s at LEAST once a day. Anyone up for a game? 🙂 ---

Count me in. There were several threads last year along these lines. A search on Family Feud could get you some ideas, ---

Oh, count me in. I hosted a similar game on another message board, and I have to say it’s much more fun to play, IMHO. ---
