Saffie's Number Game?

    Does anyone remember the game I hosted with the numbers, where I made a sign up list and everyone volunteered to take part. People would PM me with a set of, say 6-10 numbers, and assign them to someone on the sign up list. I would then give this person their prompts from a huge list I have, and people were creating amazing poems!! I think I got over 100 poems out of that game, and many made the front page.

    For those who did not know about it, it goes like this:

    Sign up: (example)
    baby rainbow
    Poet on the piano
    Larry

    So, Larry could PM me with: (example)

    13, 35, 560, 229, 456, 905 - for Potp.

    And I would then message Potp with her prompts taken from my list. There is no pressure to use all of the prompts assigned to you, it is more about the fun in trying, and creating amazing poems from inspiration. There is also no pressure for time to submit them.

    Is anyone interested in me running this again? I could make it into a challenge if you want?
    Or just the simple way it was before of write and post.
    I could also tie in a collab version where groups of 2, challenge other groups of 2?

    I will make a sign up list in this thread, but when I begin the contest, I will take it over to the contest page and try and get the challenges back inside that correct thread!

    Let me know your thoughts please.
    Thanks.

    Not sure I understand the details of the number thingies themselves, but I'm up for the game.

    Kakera it is really easy I promise.

    Say Potp Pm's me and says
    ! I challenge Kakera with: 1,2,3,4 and 5

    I would look up my list, and send you the prompts:

    1. blue
    2. a red shoe
    3. Friday night
    4. A talking cat
    5. a singing butterfly

    - the prompts are all pretty much like the challenge you just won. And you just use your prompts to make a poem. It is good fun. And you get to challenge other members.

    I will start this off now, by sending everyone already signed up their prompts. Post your poems to your profiles when you finish them.

    See you all there.
