What is the allure of these?



Who would find it fun to brainlessly count to some random number or whatever?



Someone clue me in please.
 
Its a fun way to past the time. Plus a good way to boost one's post count easily enough if they wanted too.
 
Im not really into forum games at all. You will rarely see me posting in a game thread.

But I dont providing a forum for those who DO enjoy posting in them.
 
Same here, I very rarely play forum games, but each to their own

I agree with you 100%

I didn't add a forum games forum to Zantherus until recently and even then it's dead. I don't think my members really like it either.

I don't like Forum Games myself. I participate in them for now just to be a good sport, but as soon as we get more active members, I might not play anymore, because I seriously don't see the point in having a forum game section, other than to pass the time when one doesn't want to post elsewhere. I would much rather spend time posting in other sections of my own forum.
 
It actually can be fun, like for Off Topix their are numerous users that can repetitively post after another person posts keeping the topics hot for a good period of time, and it can be fun with alot of threads because you have the opportunity to watch the numbers grow on both the threads and your post count I really enjoy it.
 
I normally keep forum games in a sub-forum under Off-Topic. I'm not massively interested in them. Also I do make it so no posts are added on to the user's post count when they post in Forum Games.
 
To those who tried to explain the allure of game threads: I'm still not convinced.

You don't have to be. One day, one day, they'll get you, just you wait

I hate the count to games, they are so pointless. I do not participate in those games.
 
The ones on my board are fun such as the date the member above and last post game. It's not the games that are problem but the boring people who play them. lol
