    Ok so I thought of this type of forum game the other day and thought it would be interesting.

    Basically I'll start by asking a question that would most likely just be searched for on google (or other search engine) and then the next person tries to answer it to the best of their own knowledge (without any search engines or references). Then finds the actual answer if possible and puts that too. Then a question of their own.

    The goal us to put an easily google-able question that someone would have a hard time guessing.

    There is no point in cheating as this is just for fun to see how little we all really know.

    To start:

    What is the height of the empire state building?

    1,000 ft

    *1,473 ft (star for actual answer from google)

    How far away is the moon from earth?

    Go!

    Edit. To help with time and answering the same questions you can just answer the last question with your guess, and write your question for the next person. Then come back and edit your post with the correct answer with a *
     
  2. Nice idea but I'm sure people will cheat :/.
    Anyways I'm pretty sure that I heard it was nearly 240k miles

    What's the population of earth?
