Crosswords and Ryoga's Directions  
Hi mods! Crosswords and Ryoga's Directions are in need of some fresh ideas! Gil would like to pass them on, so they are now free for taking! Both are biweekly games as they require some preparation. I would like to see crosswords continue as is (meaning, a crossword game) but perhaps Ryoga's Directions can morph into a more general "guess the series" type of game involving pics of characters, places, or whatever else that'd hint at what the series is. That was what it was originally meant to be anyway! It should be easier than trying to find mostly scenery. I'm sure both players and mods alike would appreciate that. XD; Easier to run, easier to play! Scenery can be part of special rounds instead or something like that!

For crosswords, it can be hard to come up with ten questions for each round. If any potential taker of this game is worried about this, I suggest having a round asking players to make actual crosswords for you to use. They will receive rewards for doing this, and when or if their crossword is used... they'd know all the answers for that round, so double rewards, whoot!

If you would like to take on either of these games, drop a comment below! The next round of both games can be posted any time after June 4th!

Yes, that's fine! :D Thank you so much, I had been having problems trying to come up with game rounds lately so this really helps me a lot. I know you'll do a great job with Conan's Clues. ♥ And I'll be sure to post about Spare Parts soon. Thank you again!

Anytime! I'm happy to help, and since I'm giving up two of my biweekly games I'm more than happy to take on some more games! I'm sorry that you're having trouble coming up with game rounds as well, I completely understand the feeling. That's why I finally gave in and gave up Crosswords and Ryoga's Directions, they were causing me so much stress because I couldn't think of round ideas but now I feel a lot better because I won't have to worry about them anymore. XD Thank you, too! If I forget to post round 49 of Conan's Clues (I'll probably try to post it around the same time you used to post the rounds) feel free to comment or message me, because that would probably mean I totally forgot about it accidentally. Good luck, too, I hope someone else will be able to take over Spare Parts! ;;

This so much! XD; I thought I could hold on but then last night I was thinking "what the heck self why do you do this to yourself" so I just decided to ask people to take over the games and post today. And yeah, I feel like I have a big burden taken off my shoulders now. Feels great!

I'm sure you'll remember to post for the game, but if it comes to that, I'll definitely let you know! /o/ Thank you again for the good luck too, I hope someone will be interested in taking over the game for me.

I'm glad that you did! You had so many games to cover, not including the signatures and level ups posts. You had so much to do ;_; You still do technically, but at least you'll have a few less games to worry about. I always wondered how you could come up with so many ideas for rounds, I know I'd have a lot of trouble with so many games that require a lot of thinking. So I think you made a very good decision, feeling stressed out over games is horrible! <3 Again I'm sorry, I'd pick up Spare Parts for you but I honestly can't think of one single round idea that hasn't been used yet, hopefully someone else will be able to~
