I used to play this at another message board, and thought you all might like it. Answer the last question, and if it’s a no, then say GO FISH. Either way you respond with a yes or no question of your own for the next poster to answer. The questions can be racy, flirtatious or mundane. In case it’s not clear, here’s an example: \ ***Question:** Have you ever been freaked out at night after a scary movie? **Reply:** Nope, I’m not real big on scary movies. Go Fish! Then, your own question.\* So, my question to the next poster is: Have you ever vacationed in another country? ---

_Q: Have you ever witnessed a “successful” seance?_ Never. Actually, I’ve never witnessed a seance at all, but if I did, I doubt it would have been successful. Go fish. Along a similar line, have you ever used a ouija board? ---
