Title: 4 truths and a lie
Description: a fun idea to start of the games forum
Marvin the Paranoid Android - June 2, 2007 02:58 AM (GMT)
OK, this is how it works:
1. the person whose go it is posts five statements about themselves.
2. 4 of them are true, 1 of them is a lie
3. Everyone is allowed 1 shot at guessing which one is the lie.
4. The first person to guess the lie gets to go next and post their own 5 statements.
This is a fun game that lets you get to know weird stuff about other forum members. Or in my case weird stuff about a mod. I'll go first.
1. Myself, my brother, and my sister have first names with initials that run consecutively in the alphabet
2. My father was once pistol shooting champion of the country I grew up in
3. Despite being a huge fantasy nerd, I have never read the Lord Of The Rings trilogy
4. Despite being a huge science fiction nerd, I have never read anything by Isaac Asimov
5. I once successfully convinced someone I was from a country 10,000 miles away from the one I lived in.

nope. He really was pistol shooting champrion. He was going to be on the 1980 Olympic team, but then I was born, and his plans changed.

this actually happened. I'm English, and for a good 2 hours I had someone convinced I was Australian. I did it all without saying "crikey"

Well, those were the three cool facts, and they were all true. Good show. =D
*leaves the other guesses to others to make*
Edit: Sorry about the slight off-topicness. I had to say it. I won't do it again. o.o

you got it. This was the lie. I'm a huge Isaac Asimov fan, and have read the Foundation series about 20 times.
