So there's a game by Jonathan Walton, Kazekami Kyoko Kills Kublai Khan, which for some reason I forgot about until today. However I still think it's really cool.
Who is up for a go of it?
I'd also like to propose something a little different with this game. It's a short two-player game, so perhaps we could do a triptych of variations, which would allow us to include more than two players in this run of KKKKK if people are interested. For example, the games could be:
Kazekami Kyoko Kills Kublai Khan
Henry Holiday Hangs Hank Hawkins (Old Wild West)
D-007overlord Decommissions D-29909slave (Robots in the future)
Because of the nature of this game, I think players should be able to post at least once a day.

That does sound pretty fun, and it doesn't seem that it would demand much time commitment.
Maybe? I'll get back to ya.

A day later, it still sounds interesting, so I'd be for it. I think I like the basic KKKKK best, but (if enough people get on board) I'd also be for the HHHHH. Though it would be important to clarify the roles and response formulae for HHHHH (and DDD, for that matter), since they don't seem that they'd work quite the same as KKKKK.

Agreed on the choice and need for modifications (if other people join in). I'm at a frisbee tournament most of the weekend but I'll get back to this later tonight.
What's the procedure for opening a new board, do we PM SisyphusX or Jonathan?

This made me realize that we don't have a nice sticky about starting up a game... so I made one. Information is there now.

Thanks Garvey.
YP, how about starting the KKKKK game forum with a sub-forum for chat about the game(s) and a sub-forum for the first game; we can always set up additional sub-boards as needed?

Sub-boards don't really sound terribly necessary - every game would consist of a single thread, and the game chat wouldn't be more than three, so spreading threads out over multiple boards seems over-the-top.
