<< New and Improved(?) Rules >> Rule 4 "The best way to keep a secret? Keep it to yourself. Second best? Tell one other person — if you must. There is no third best." QotDay Corallary: sometimes the best answer might be no answer Rule 3 I will post the Questions as early as Midnite EDT (NY time) or as late as Noon CDT (Denton, TX time). If I miss that window, one of the other Quisitors please post a backup question. Rule 2 Weekend Questions might span multiple days. Rule 1 Have fun with all this. Humorous answers encouraged.

October 1st and 2nd's Question: Suppose you are in a coffee shop hanging out with middle school version of you (or a clone with the stolen memories of yourself at that time, cast into the future to prevent a paradox). If you were talking about who you were going to be as a person when you grew up versus who you are right now, how different is what you both want? Edited for formatting. And the question has been updated. The niceties must be observed.

Thanks to all who have gone before (Talespinner and TGP as well as those who have provided them questions). I stepped up to continue the questions. As I have been doing a lot of traveling lately, the first few will be travel related. Question for May 9th : What is your favorite foreign country that you have visited? (if you have not visited a foreign country, don't worry, tomorrows question is for you)

For April the Format will adjust a little: most questions will have a 48 hour span although this will not apply to question 1. New Experimental Rules 1. Every two days, or so (unless I am out or ill or something) I will post a question. 2. You each have a 48 hour span to answer that question before the next question is posted. 3. After I post the next question, you may no longer answer a previous question. 4. Only I may post questions, but you may (and are encouraged to) submit questions to be posted by me via PM. 5. You do not have to answer a question, obviously, even if you are playing the game. Either simply wait for the next question or post that you decline to answer (why would be nice). 6. Questions might run 1 to 3 days. ____________________________________________________ For reference: Some of the Questions Asked So Far: November 2014: Question 1: What is your real name (first only is OK)?
