Questions (a word game)

[Boolean Julian]

Here's a word game from the Tom Stoppard play "Rozencrantz and Guildenstern Are Dead".] Bascially, someone starts with a question, and the next person has to reply with another question.
Ther rules:
1) no statements
2) no rhetorical quesitons
3) no repetition
4) no non-sequiteurs.

If no one posts in a while, we'll say the last poster has "won" (God knows what that means) and I'll start again with a new question. I decide how long a while is
mrgreen

First question: what is your name?

Question: If you could be anyone (book character/game/movie, basically anyone) who would you be?

Nononono. You're not meant to answer it straight. It's just another word game. The point is, you answer it with another question. You're never allowed to make a statement.

Well maybe you'd like to explain to small peanut sized brain how the hell you answer a name question with another question stare

Say, like, "Why do you want to know?" or "Is it important?" or "Does it matter if it's difficult to pronounce?" 3nodding

Exactly. Now, I'll imagine you asked that last question. stare

Do you think it will matter?

No non-sequiteurs...I win...

And this isn't spam any more than the 3 word story is.  

[Boolean Julian]

New round, new question.
How are you?  

[and_solo_said]

Why do you ask?  

[Boolean Julian]

Why shouldn't I ask?  

[Nebelstern]

Does it matter if he did?  

[and_solo_said]

Why should it?  

[Boolean Julian]

Well, why is he so reluctant to tell me?  

[and_solo_said]

Why are you so eager to be told?
