Hot Papatato Poem Reading Game

A New section for the thread a weekly game.
Poets can gather here, all is welcome.

(Play Real and Fare, take as long as one likes, under 24 hours)

1.Papa is the first caller.
He posts the poem to read.

2.Begin play by giving the hot poem posted on the thread.
(A new Thread each week)
This poets must then pass the hot poem as quickly as possible either here in it's thread in a orderly manner around the circle or by throwing it across OP to another Poet via pm.

3. Avoiding conflict by having the Papa/ the Caller,( with trust )keep his or her eyes shut. When he/or calls out "Stop!" whoever is left with the hot poem is eliminated and must leave the thread.

4. Continue to play and eliminate poets until only one is left. The last poet in the circle is the winner and may move on to become the caller in the next round of the READING_game.


This is a way to get poems read, and people moving.
Picking a day is good.
Seems to me tuesday nights is best here.
But just an idea..

lol, Cross do you mean you never played hot potato, same thing here just with a poem?

RE: Hot Papatato Poem Reading Game

I understood that part of it but if I interpreted how I think I did someone could just randomly send it in pm to a general person on the site and then it would be almost impossible to guess who had it wouldn't it?

RE: Hot Papatato Poem Reading Game

Maybe, a game amplet can be made one day
fine tuned, and improve'd,
and the game be placed in the game section.
