The "Freeola Customer Forum" forum, which includes Retro Game Reviews, has been archived and is now read-only. You cannot post here or create a new thread or review on this forum.
The totally unofficial ‘Freeola forums random fact about me game’.
To play the game forum members take it in turn to list 10 random facts about themselves, some must be true others total fabrications. Once a list as been submitted other members simply submit which they believe to be true and which they think are false. Whoever guesses the most correctly gets to go next, lists are only valid for 24 hours from posting. The 24 hour rule is automatically overruled if the poster spots an entry in which someone has guessed all 10 ‘facts’ correctly.
The (very loose) rules are:
Facts must be things fairly unusual not ‘I usually take the bus to work’ kind of thing. But not ridiculous either, none of this ‘I went to the moon and it was made of cheese’ stuff.
Each member can only submit 1 list but they can still continue to guess other peoples lists and I will attempt to keep some kind of championship board.
Each member can only guess once for each list and answers must be submitted under a ‘spoiler’ tag.
There must be a mix of true and false ‘facts’ (no all true or all false).
If 2 or more people get the same amount correct, whoever posted first gets to go next.
Think that’s about it really.
Right, think that’s pretty straightforward. Hope this gets more entries than this years MotoGP fantasy league!
Whoever is heading the leaderboard on 1/03/02 can now claim the award kindly given by Freeola for this thread. In the event of a tie I will post a final 10 'facts' to decide to winner on this date, if its me in the final 2 then I will ask another forum member (who doesn't know either of us in person) to do this. As with yesterday when we had the same number of people getting the number of guesses correct each get a championship point. Hope this gets some activity going over the next 14 days as anyone has a genuine chance to win.
Best of luck everyone.

Cheers guys. I think there's just over half an hour left if anyone wants to try and win a GAD. I'll post the answers at 6.
Brilliant news about your little lad Machie, cheers for the update.
Thanks very much GP, that would be appreciated. Please feel free to enter if you wish, the game runs until next Thursday and anyone could still win it.

Good work Machie,
1. During the great flood of 2007 I spent 5 hours digging holes and building sand walls to protect our house from the water.
2. At home in England we have some Egyptian artifacts that my step-gran's father collected during the first World War. I emailed some photos to the British Museum and they were keen to see them.
3. I was born with different coloured eyes.
4. I have travelled a lot in my life and have so far visited 17 different countries.
5. During one long-haul flight alone I got very close with a young woman who sat next to me. ;)
6. My cousin (a fitness instructor) applied to be on Total Wipeout, but didn't get through because she wasn't weird enough.
7. The brother of my wife's best friend works for Akira Toriyama (creator of Dragonball and artist for Dragon Quest)
8. My cousin in New Zealand was an extra in the last 2 Lord of the Rings movies.
9. During the early days of the internet (I mean when it became popular) and you had to pay by the second. I once ran up a phone bill (for one month) of £800 using the internet and making international phone calls.
10. When the earthquake hit Japan on March 11th last year, I was in the middle of having a shower and had to escape my apartment in just a towel.
