Okay, so I've been thinking about this for a little while now. It seems there was some intrest in having a place where people could play dorky forum games like "Three word story" and "count to 1000" or something. I said no because those topics are basically spam, but I've been reconsidering. So citizens of Gensokyo, this is where I ask you~ But first I actually want to explain why I didn't want to add it in the first place. - Your post count wouldn't increase in that forum at all. Sorry, you only deserve more post count with meaningful posts. Anyway, while your personal post count wouldn't go up the forum's post count would. That would either mean that I would include this spammy section in the overall forum's post count, or I would have to do math (much like what I do with the Guest Forum now). I don't really like either.
- As I said before, it's basically spam. I realize that games can promote community, but the c-box seemed to be doing a good job there. I'm just not real fond of the idea of encouraging spam I guess.
- They tend to be a bit of a pain in the ass to moderate, but I guess I could deal with that.
Those were the major things. But anyway, if you guys really wanted a forum games section I could look past all that and make one anyway. Poll closes in two weeks. Thread will probably stay open forever so people can complain.

A. I can math. In other news, perhaps the Guest Board can be the Adverts n' Games board instead. (Perhaps a better title, but wa-hey, can't get good names for things like that from me. I just math.) Besides, most if not every single guest used the C-Box anyway It's pretty much the advert/affiliate forum.
B. See above. Them going in the same place is pretty convenient. Incidentally, the C-Box is cull of meaningless stuff anyway. We roll with it. As for encouraging spam...well, spam with at least a 10% meaning rating is fine when it doesn't increase your post count, and is subtracted from the overall with my uber math skills. If they don't end up in the same place, I can subtract 2 numbers too.
C. My title is moderator. Guess what I can do~ ....After I get done with the post of the day(s). o.o ....Well I do get up in the morning. Perhaps that's a fine time.
So with all that in mind, along with other thoughts involving less nagging of myself by certain people that would be somewhat more occupied with this thing, I give it a stamp of appr--
--Oh wait, I can't do that completely.
So I'll just vote yes.
And brainwash you all into agreeing me with my MODULAR INFLUENCE! BWAHAHAHAHA--
--er, hem. *whistles*
(Though I'm more tempted to pick the third option, I've decided to go otherwise. But let's just say I clicked it too anyway.)
