This is a battle of the sexes. If the poster is male, he will add 1 to the number above him and then make a comment of any sort he wishes. If the poster is female, she will subtract 1 from the number above her and make a comment. If the number reaches 0, the girls win. If the number reaches double the starting number, the guys win. For instance if we start at 1,000, the guys win at 2,000. Please always leave a comment with your number so it doesn't devolve into just another counting game. Comments obviously make it much more interesting.
All forum rules apply. Keep the comments civil. No double posting.
We will start with:
1,000 - This game can be really fun and a good way to have ad hoc conversations.
Amended Rules
All of the above still applies EXCEPT:
• Girls may now subtract 5 per post owing to the fact the forum demographic is skewed so much toward males.
• Each new game will begin at 50 until further notice.
• Turncoats are allowed. Meaning you may post for either gender regardless of your own gender.
38. LOL... so things like that already existed? I thought that twerking was enough, but I can see that
not.
I'm more than twice that age now, so I don't even remember that well what were we doing at our counterpart of 8th grade. I just remember that I wasted enormous amounts of time on not pursuing an ambitious career as a manager. Wow, nothing has changed... and I don't regret in the least :-P
34. We don't even have 8th grade now and for like 20 years. First school ends at 6th grade and then we go to another, higher, for three years. We translate it as college but it's not really a college. Long story short: Polish education looks completely different.
35. Ah, summer! I really enjoyed it 8 years ago, but during that time winters disappeared, springs got drier and wetter (One year all crops die because of drought, the other they all die because of rain.), and summer turned into hell. In the "It's like a jillion degrees" sense, of course.
@PLGuy, so how many years of education do you have? So you have I guess kind of elementary school, then some sort of high school and do you have anything above then? Like an extra college?
33. Your view of summer sounds like where I live. It gets 110 degrees Fahrenheit in the summer. Really! But I can tolerate it. We all can. Our winters aren't as cold. Only like 40 degrees Fahrenheit.
30. @sciller45 Oh, I messed that up. I meant that three years school is like high school and then another three years of college (liceum) ending with an exam. So it's like 1 extra year I believe? We were starting education at the age of 7, now they changed it to 6, so it has got even with USA etc.
Now weird things happen in PL - we have snow with negative temperatures and mosquitoes flying everywhere and biting furiously.
29. We've been having some weird weather these past years. Like a few weeks before, we had snow, but it was closer to sand! You really had to add water to the snow to do anything with it! Then some rain fell and I thought "Yay! I could make a snowman!" NOPE! It just made a layer of ICE on top of a less dense layer of ice! Stepping through it was like walking through cardboard. Really. Then it melted, then froze over again and melted... All while having -20 degrees all throughout the country.
