If you are on Face Book: A favor, please
I spend a lot of time zonked out because I'm in a lot of pain, and on a lot of heavy meds. So when I'm in no condition to do anything else, I sit and play fun little games. They don't tax me, and they keep me doing something.

But, a lot of those games require that you have a lot of friends sign up with you in order to unlock levels or abilities or whatever. Basically, you can't play the game unless you have a lot of friends.

The friends don't actually have to play the game too. But they bet that once the friends sign up, they'll want to play and therefore need to sign up even more people.

If you are on facebook, would you be willing to sign up to these games with me so that I can play? Please? :)

I play:
Age of Chivalry
Bloodlines
Metropolis
School of Magic
Vampires

(I also play a few others that don't require friends to play. I won't bug you about those.)

If you are interested in helping me out, just let me know and I'll send you an invitation to the game. All you have to do is accept. You can then play, or don't play, but either way it helps me.

Thank you. :hi:

6. Those are the type of game I can't play.
When I'm playing games it's because I'm thinking very slowly. :P

But you'd always win. :)

7. The dice game is pretty fun -
my daughter got me started on that, and I got my husband started, and he grabbed a couple of our friends and my brother, and now I've got you playing. :D

4. Of course!
I've taken to doing that with friends on WordTwist. They often don't play, but I love it, and I can only do it if I invite people. :P

37. That's why I play Scramble and Pathwords
So I can play SOlo. I wish WordTwist was set up that way.

These games are all very incredibly simple if you choose to play them. They take a few minutes at a time. Some people check the games once per day. Or you can be like me and rotate through them once every half hour. :P

12. Got your invite, and joined the game
I'm not too good at most of the games-- except for Word Challenge.

And any other FBers reading this-- let me know if you want to play Word Challenge some time. I warn you, I'm a total badass at it, and probably you're highest ranked friend. Mainly because I have no life and spend my free time learning how to get better at Word Challenge.

I was just on the phone and totally lost track of what I'm doing and what I've done. :P

21. Sure. You're already my friend on there. Just be warned.
I am sporadic at best these days because of work commitments, but I would love to play with you.

29. Thank you!
These types of games aren't ones you really play together. It's you against the computer and against people you don't know. But the number of friends you sign up makes you more powerful, or unlocks parts of the game for you to play.

I'm also up for the types of games where I would be playing with other people, but the problem with those is that I play when I'm "medically stupid." :P

22. Friending you...
so send away. As long as they don't email-bomb me (all my email gets sent to my phone and I get text-message charges if I go over 400 messages/mo.), it's okay with me whatever you/they send me.

I promise not to email bomb you. I tend to be on facebook when I am in no shame to communicate, ironically. :P

I use it as a place to see what other people are up to, leave messages for people occasionally, and waste time when I need to avoid pain.

26. GREAT idea...can you add me too?
I play many of the same games (gee, wonder why...maybe because Thom keeps sending me the add requests? lol)

If anyone wants to add me, I would love it! And I am happy to return the favor if you need for games you play. And I love suggestions for new ways to waste my time online...I mean new games to play

thanks!

33. Oh yes, Jenna is my usual partner in crime.
I bug her first about almost everything. :P

So if you don't mind padding people's game membership please consider padding her numbers too. She keeps me company when I'm in the worst shape.
