Online Game Message Boards

Anyone who has surfed message boards before knows they can be highly addicting. Perhaps it's the way strangers praise or debate your well-articulated opinions. Maybe discussing your opinions, thoughts, goals and insights seems a worthwhile way to pass the time. You may have built new friendships, found new opponents to play board games against or learned something new. This marketplace of ideas can be exciting, as you learn about the many different opinions that exist in the world. For gamers, the Internet forums are the best place to learn skills, have questions answered and develop their hobbies.

The Monopoly board game has a plethora of message boards to choose from. Yahoo Games allows players to engage in open discussions and message board topics related to Monopoly, as well as play board games online at www.dir.groups.yahoo.com. Look for "Yahoo! Groups Monopoly," "Yahoo! Message Boards Monopoly," "Monopoly UK," "Monopoly Playhouse Club" or "Y! Monopoly Club." At www.search.msn.com, you can look under "BrokenDoll Monopoly" or "MSN Groups Monopoly." There are also forums under Google Groups (www.groups.google.com).

Checkers is another strategy board game that attracts large audiences to online boards. Since there are so many different possible algorithms and game plays, people are always looking to practice their skills with online board games or by reading up on strategies and theories in the forums. Yahoo Games has a number of checkers-related groups at www.dir.groups.com: Yahoo Message Boards - Checkers, Yahoo Groups - Chinese Checkers, Yahoo Groups - Draughts, the Y Checkers Club, the Turkish Draughts Drama Club and the Elite Checkers Club. MSN (www.search.msn.com) and Google Groups (www.groups.google.com) are other places to find checkers-related groups created by other avid gamers.

Sometimes people even play games on message boards. This can be a great way of getting to know others and having a bit of fun. When posting a game suggestion, title your post using the word "game" — like "Finish the Sentence Game" or "Rhyme Time Game." Then, in the post, write clear directions and post an example to get people started. You'll be surprised at how quickly people reply! In the "Finish the Sentence Game," you'll post 3-4 words starting a sentence and the next person will finish it. The "Word Chain Game" simply posts one word and everyone replies with the first subsequent word that comes to mind. You can also play "Message Board Go Fish," where a person will ask a yes-or-no question and if the next person says yes, then he or she asks a new question. If the answer is no, he or she says "go fish." There are also many ABC games for movies, animals, what's in your pantry, musicians and more. Getting-to-know-you games may include question quizzes.
