Rules for Bumping Old Threads, & RealGM Game Ideas, during NBA Offseason. (Updated 2022) 

Post#1 » by Parliament10 » Sun Mar 15, 2020 4:20 am

Game Ideas

We need Games to play on RealGM, during the current NBA Offseason (2022)
Keep your ideas for Games reasonable, and within the realm of plausibility.

List any Ideas here, and see if others can add to them.
If we get a good game, that enough people agree upon, then let's play it.
________________________________________________________________



Rules For Bringing Back Old Threads

1. After the NBA Preseason Starts, 2022. = Do not bring back any Threads older than 1 year.
2. Threads must have at least 10 Old Responses, to be brought back.
3. This is for FUN. So, Do Not do it to Bait or Troll.
4. You MUST make a comment that segues it to the present. Don't just "Bump" the Thread.
5. No Locked Threads will be brought back. = Unless Mods make a New Thread, from one that went over the 2,000 limit.
6. If Threads get out of hand, they will be Locked.
7. Stay away from Politics, Religion, COVID, and Personal Attacks.
8. Mods Reserve the Right to Lock any Thread, at any time, for any reason.




In the Spoiler are the Old Rules, from the COVID Sports Stoppage, back in March 2020.
Spoiler:
We need Games to play on RealGM, during the current Worldwide Sports Stoppage.
Keep your ideas for Games reasonable, and within the realm of plausibilty.

List any Ideas here, and see if others can add to them.
If we get a good game, that enough people agree upon, then let's play it.

We got 1 day to predict the crazy qb shake up.
1. Brady I say stays
2. Rivers I say colts
3. Winston I say stays
4. Mariota I say jaguars
5. Dalton I say da bears
Etc.

Similarly, we could point to noteworthy locked threads.

Here's one I started, as an obvious parody of you-know-what. The mod's lock notice was cool. :)

Brady goes to the Buccaneers, but the entire NFL season is canceled and he announces his retirement during the suspension of play.

Good try. But the response is too small.

NBA word association thread.

Like someone starts a thread and just goes on with a word that comes to mind with something Celtics/NBA related.

Like if you said "Al Horford" the next post might be "Money" or "old"

Someone says Celtics and the next post might say "championships".

Someone should really compile a timeline of meltdowns on here. That or just feuds in general. I find it hilarious. It's like the WWF around here sometimes.

Yeah, not sure why the necrobumping of old threads is a thing right now, but I'll fare pretty well in a fair read. That dude descended into a homophobic ragequit because I called a washed up and overpaid David Lee "asswater", lmao.

It's legit insanity how much **** I have taken here for saying that:

* Yes, we should definitely trade Al Jefferson for KG.
* We should have tanked slightly harder to possibly get guys like Embiid, Towns, or Porzingis over Smart and Rozier.
* That IT was a 6th man and not a building block.
* That David Lee was washed up.
* That Boogie was an overrated cancer.

No one bats 1.000, as we saw in the bumped Giannis draft thread, but I feel like I am doing OK on the other things of importance lol.

Has anyone re-watched any of the Games this season?
Maybe we should all take to watching a game or 2 a day, in unison?
