This is gonna be just like that old dating game where one person (the contestant) asks three anonymous strangers behind the curtain (so they cant see their face) questions and at the end the contestant picks one of them to go on a "date" with!! Itll be fun dont worry.
How its gonna work:
the first person to volunteer ON THIS TOPIC will be the main contestant. The first three people to PM ME will be the anonymous strangers.
Thw anonymous strangers will introduce themselves with the number I assign them, using the the anonymous option.( its under Attachments and other options under the reply box)
The contestant will be able to ask the anonymous strangers a certain number of questions, until the end of the game, where they pick one and the anonymous strangers reveal themselves. Itll be great dont worry.
Ill help the game along as the MC.
Ill figure out a fun way for audience involvement.
I really only have a vague idea of how the original game show works, we'll figure it out as we go along.
I-I'll vollunteer...
WONDERFUL
We have our main contestant!! Now we wait for some anonymous strangers to come forward ;)
Hello! I am Stranger #1, very pleased to make your acquaintance!
Why hello there young sir/miss. Pleased to make your acquaintance as well!
*Gets brutally murdered by someone else, who becomes Stranger #2*
The same to you sir/miss!
Hi there Rosie, you can call me "Stranger 3" :)
WELCOME LADIES AND GENTLEMEN TO THE FIRST EVER FORUM DATING GAME SHOW
Our first contestant is the lovely bachelorette Rosie Willowater! She likes cute fuzzy animals and she's only been married twice(?)!!!
And behind the curtain, anxiously waiting, are our three Mysterious Strangers!
Stranger #1 enjoys long walks on the beach.
Stranger #2 likes dogs, probably.
And Stranger #3 took forever to introduce himself!!
Thats all youre gonna get from me!
Alright
@Rosie Willowwater, what would you like to ask these fine gentlemen first?
We'll start off with some questions to ask all the three of them!
How would you describe yourself?
Stranger #2
I'm typically cautious and analyze a situation, but I still love adventure and mystery. 8)
Stranger Three here.
I'm a great golden god. I'm perfect, I'm just pure awesomesauce, I'm the best at all things I attempt, and I'm very humble.
As Stranger #1, I would describe myself as a person who is rather athletic, I've excelled at most everything that I try and enjoy without practicing, which is good in that it comes naturally, but bad in that I haven't had to work that hard to be good at anything. I strive for wisdom, yet find it ever lurking behind the next corner, constantly darting away, never to be completely grasped. That being said, I do love a good joke, wordplay being one of the higher forms of humor. Now I do believe that I have said enough at this point in time!
Lol "the guests are planning something" I am seriously laughing my face off!!!!
lol.didn't read the rules completely!! Lol srry I feel like a dope ;P
Don't quote me on this Dannflor but I'm pretty sure only the contestant can ask questions. :)
Lol :P I feel like an idiot...
Alright strangers, do you have six fingers on your right hand?
Stranger 2:
Don't worry about it Danflor ;)
@Rosie Naturally :)
Stranger #1:
No I do not have 6 fingers on my right hand...
Just popping in to remind you guys not to look at the Recent Posts list, 'cause it'll tell you who the people really are.
Thanks Jukk. ;D

@James Gryphon is there any way to fix that? Because it sort of defeats the purpose of the feature if somewhere else can just tell you.
I did post about it on the mod's thread, but the creator hasn't had the time to get into that yet. That said, I'll look at the mod myself ASAP to see if I can figure out what the problem is.
Is it bad that I (think that I) know everyone just by their introductions? ;D
No. I was pretty sure of the first person, and I was right. ;D
Stranger 2:
@Kit Shoot me a PM and I'll tell you if you're right ;)
So are they writing as guests??? Or is someone changing there names??? Or are they making fake accounts and deleting them???? How are they writing an anonymous????

There's the option, below the main text box when writing a reply, under the attachments and other options to post anonymously.

Ah thanks!!!
that was also stated in the rules dear dannflor ;P
And the audience questions segment isnt until later in the game!!
Oh, I'm looking forwards to that.
Mod: Galli can see you now, so don't make posts as a certain stranger if that's not who you are, or you'll be in big trouble!!!
Rodger that, capitán.
Stranger #53.
Hello!

/Not a great rules reader I guess... :P
it's okay *pat pat*
Yeah, I'm pretty sure I know who the three are as well Jukka.
Stranger #3 needs to answer
Oh.
Stranger #3 lost his chance!!
@Rosie Willowwater go ahead and ask another question.
What is one task that you have completed that you are proud of?
My hundredth town razing.
you need to let them know which stranger you are when you answer!!!
EDIT: that was stranger #3 btw
A pleasant time of day to you, Miss Rose. My apologies for my tardiness, Miss Galliver has permitted me to replace the first stranger. Allow me to introduce myself. You may call me Stranger o4. I enjoy long walks on the beach, knitting, and unicorns. In fact, one night, I was walking on the beach when I encountered a unicorn, which I proceeded to stab in the throat with a crochet needle. Slaying that noble beast in single combat, one thought to be extinct. I consider this my greatest accomplishment.
~ Stranger o4
*bump*
@Aimless Gallivanter This is pretty cool. is anyone still interested??
I am! ;D
@Aimless Gallivanter Any way we could get this going again? Looks fun.
If people are interested, yeah we probably can.
I'm interested
me too!
*Bump* Anyone still interested?
Yes.
If someone wants to take this over, I wouldnt mind at all. i know i went a little inactive there
I want to be the contestant.
I'll try my hand at being the host. I've seen some dating auctions and need to be more active. Any anonymous suitors?
Aw sorry Prez, no one's lining up to date you :-\ :-\ :-\
I'll be the first suitor!
Great! Can we get two more?
It's a low commitment game. You only have to post when you're asked a question. So, once every few days.
Hello it is me the second suitor
Oh wow.
'Kay.
Nice to meet you.
Welcome, suitor #2.
(https://media.giphy.com/media/ziLadIVnOGCKk/giphy.gif)
So I ask 'em questions?
Yup
Alright, then, here we go.
Hello strangers, do you prefer cats or dogs?
Stranger #1
Both! But cats if I have to choose.
STRANGER NUMBER TWO?!
It's been three days, could suitor #2 please answer the question?
I like both, but if I had to pick it'd be a crossbreed of cat and dog.
Cadog?
Docat?
A monster?
Probably the third one.
Illuminating. For future posts could you please add "Stranger #2" or something similar? Thanks.
@Ashleg Go ahead with your next question whenever you're ready.
Hm. Okay.
Do you agree that I, President Ashleg, am the true ruler of the Cellars? >: )
Of course! I mean, who else could be as good at ruling as you?
Stranger 1
NOBEAST! ;D
It's been over a week; is Suitor #2 bowing out?
*DP*
Suitor #2 is OUT and Suitor #1, you may come and collect your prize.
Your prize is Ashleg. Congrats.
Yay!
Oh my GAWRSH, it's my actual fiance!
congrats to the happy couple
Thankee!
*Pukes*
*pats Russa on the head*
Another! ;D
You can host this one Maudie :D
Nah, I just want to watch. ;D
Okee, I'll host!
Who wants to be the contestant?
Me! ;D
Okee!
Suitors?
Hello, I am Suitor #1 I assume.
Hello!
*Bows elegantly*
Suitor #2, at your service, ma'am.
Nice to meet you!
So Maudie, ask them a question.
Sooo...
Chocolate or vanilla?
It really does depend on what the context is madame. Vanilla is the canvas of food; one does not simply enjoy vanilla on its own. It requires more flavors to make it really enjoyable. Chocolate on the the other hand follows the old adage "Less is more" to the letter, the less you add to chocolate the better it tastes. So by itself my answer would be chocolate. But with toppings and the like my answer would be vanilla.
Suitor #1
Hello, I am late and Suitor #3!
Chocolate or vanilla. . . . I do not know. I like both.
My preference lies with chocolate. Its savor and versatility simply cannot be matched by vanilla. It encompasses everything from the delectable richness of a dark chocolate cake to the light and delicate flavor of a whipped-chocolate custard. To improve any event, all that is necessary is to add chocolate. Furthermore, it is most useful at winning the hearts of beautiful maidens like yourself.
~Suitor #2
What are your thoughts on forks?
Forks? They're necessary, I suppose. I prefer spoons. Easier to eat things.
Forks are very interesting, taking you on to new journeys and paths depending on which side of the fork you take. They are also very useful utensils in the art of cooking and dining: Aristology.

Which suitor are you?
Sorry, I confess I forgot. Won't happen again. I am Suitor #3, at your service.
Thank you. Now, Suitor #2, we need your answer to move on. This is an extremely important question ;D
How dare you trust these gentlemen! They are GUESTS!!! :o
(though I will say, they do have exquisite manners...)
Carry on, as I sit in the corner eating cookies. (Psst... choose Mr. Number 2!)
Ach, it seems as though Suitor #2 has missed his opportunity. Perhaps he can make up for it on this next question.
My third and final question is...
Should the Iraqi government grant independence to the Kurdistan Region of Iraq?
;D
Strike that. The final question is:
What question do you think I should have asked for the final question?
But madame surely you see that in asking that question you already have asked your final question. As you have already asked that question I must simply say that I think your final question should be, "What question do you think I should have asked for the final question?"
My apologies!
Suitor #1
Please put which suitor you are in the post :)
Alrighty, anybeast still inta this? :P
Prolly not.

Bet.
Hmmm....Why are you so sure....
Not actual betting, mind you
Hello!
What is this, and why do we need it?
Technically you could say that about most things.

Hello!
Hi there! You should head over to the Introduction Topic (http://redwallabbey.com/forum/index.php?topic=177.4650) and introduce yourself so that everybeast can say hello! Hope you enjoy your time here ^-^
Interesting...
(Shipping material?)
Please no! I beg of you! Please oh great and masterful shipper!
*Is tempted to read through all of the forum members' posts to find out whose post that was* :laugh:
I don't think you can. It might be listed only for mods or admins to be able to see.
Mm. I'm pretty sure it worked before.
The person aboe me is Teer.
Didn't even know this was an option XD
Well, this is certainly interesting. Shall we start it up again?
(Don't worry, we can exile Seb)
Ehh, why not?
Yesssss.
Somebody else can host. (They'll have to reveal themselves first...)
