Fact or Fiction? -> You Decide.

[Jeff777]

FACT or FICTION? You Decide. This game is pretty cool. A poster finds a story online (snopes is great) and gives the basis of the story telling the important parts of it. It's up to the next posters (without cheating by surfing the net) to decide if it's fact or fiction merely by stating it. Story Tellers: Grab a story (keep it to two paragraphs at the most) from the net and post it in this thread for subsequent posters to decide whether or not they think it's fact or fiction. Come clean with the story's authenticity AFTER 24 hours. I suggest you don't prolong the suspense or the story itself will just be forgotten After coming clean, if you can...please give some background of the story and origins of it. The story has to be something the users MAY know. Nothing like -> I have 40,000 bucks in my bank account...fact or fiction. Guessers: Quote the story you're deciding upon with your answer after the quote. You CAN NOT surf the net for the answers, that takes away the fun and if you do you're just a dirty cheating skank that can't be trusted as far as you can be thrown. You CAN NOT post information or material to back up the reason you have made whatever decision you've come to regarding the story. Your ONLY answer when quoting a story can only be "Fact" or "Fiction". Don't mistake this for not being able to conversate in the thread...by all means. However if you're quoting a story, that means you're answering it and that means you are only limited to saying either "Fact" or "Fiction". NO INTERNET BROWSING FOR ANSWERS. Immediately after answering a fact or fiction post, YOU have to post one of your own.

Guessers: [insert in-between stuff here] Immediately after answering a fact or fiction post, YOU have to post one of your own. FICTION No brainer. [insert lack of new story here] Whoops, Jeff broke his own rule. Tee hee. New Story: The nursery rhyme "Sing a Song of Sixpence" originated as a coded message used for recruiting pirates.

Mr. Rogers was a sniper in the marines and wore his sweater to hide his tattoos. Cassie Bernall, a girl killed in the Columbine Shootings, was asked before being shot if she believed in God and was shot after responding "yes." Which of these is false?

[Jeff777]

Mr. Rogers was a sniper in the marines and wore his sweater to hide his tattoos. Fiction Cassie Bernall, a girl killed in the Columbine Shootings, was asked before being shot if she believed in God and was shot after responding "yes." Fact

[Sandform]

Fiction Correct, Fact Incorrect. Cassie Bernall was never asked the question of whether she believed in god or not. The only exchange that occured with her and her murderer was a loud thump on the desk she was hiding under and the phrase "Peeaboo" before he shot her. A person who was wounded actually was asked such a question, though she did not die, and she was asked the question after she was wounded. It is an urban myth religious people use to gain support for their cause. Of course the whole story is more complicated than that, go to wiki for Cassie and you'll find more information.

[Jeff777]

It is an urban myth religious people use to gain support for their cause. Geez. That's almost as bad as the people who allegedly drilled a hole into hell and heard hundreds of thousands of screams on their advanced equipment. THIS is a total B/S story Christians are starting to add to their arsenal of "conversion tactics".

[Sandform]

Geez. That's almost as bad as the people who allegedly drilled a hole into hell and heard hundreds of thousands of screams on their advanced equipment. THIS is a total B/S story Christians are starting to add to their arsenal of "conversion tactics". Yeah, there is even a song by that "our lives used to suck but then we found god and now we rock to music" band "Flyleaf." I actually like the song, although only after you know it has been altered in the studio so her voice doesn't sound like a screeching chalkboard.
