Let's party! Quirkily!

The Game Room
1

Last fall we played several rounds of Party Quirks, which I thought was a lot of fun. Idle Thoughts figured out how to play it online and ran several games, and I ran one as well – hm, actually not as well, since all the quirks got guessed when I ran it.

Basic premise: a bunch of people (12-15) function as guests. The moderator (me, in this case) assigns each guest a quirk (which might be a role or personality, or a bit of wordplay, or whatever), and the guests have to write all their posts in accordance with that quirk. There are also 3 or 4 hosts, who have to guess what the quirks are. Here is the OP from the game I ran.

So, if folks would like to revive this – we need 15-20 people who want to play. Post here if you’d like to and make sure your PM is enabled so I can send you your assignment. Indicate if you have a strong and burning desire to be either a host or a guest. I’m not going to go back and review all the old threads to see who’s done what, so if you don’t specify, you may end up playing your usual role again. (Because I’m not reviewing old threads, there is a strong possibility that some quirk that has been used previously might be used again – so hosts, don’t discount one of your guesses based on that. I’d encourage others not to reread old threads to keep this fresh, but let your conscience be your guide.)

Anyone interested?

I’d like to play. Happy to be a guest or a host.

We played this as a theatrical warm-up game in a lot of my acting classes. Good times!

I’m willing to play either role. The game is a blast either way.

I’ll be in as either.

17

Ooh, ooh! I want to play. I don’t care which role either!

18

I count 12 signups so far – we can take another six or eight players total.

I’ll play. Preferably as a guest.

I’ll do it, and I don’t care what my role is.
