Hello one and all.
For quite some time now I have been toying with the idea of doing a trivia game based on a specific category.
I don't know how it would work yet, or even IF it would work very well.
Since I was age 7, I became very interested in the trivia and the history of the United States Presidents.
In August 1974, I was 4 months shy of my 8th birthday, and then President Richard M. Nixon resigned from office due to the Watergate scandal.
My parents owned a Galaxy 500 automobile which was made by Ford.
When my Mom told me that "Ford" was going to become the next President, I honestly thought she meant our car!
When I said that to her, she chuckled. Later that day she had to run out to a store called Woolworth's. They no longer exist but she went there to pick up some yarn as one of her few hobbies was crocheting. While she was there, she found a sticker book all about the Presidents and purchased it. She then sat with me and we filled the entire book in together, and she wrote each number under each President as far as their order.
I learned about all 37 Presidents back then, and the order that they were in. So that's the genesis of my love and obsession about the subject.
With that clarified, and knowing that we strive to do our very best to avoid political talk and discussion on here, I'd like to know...
A. Would the collective moderators be okay and on board with me attempting to do a possible game based on this specific category?
B. Would the collective whole be interested in seeing me try to do such a game?
Your opinions and feedback are most valuable.
Respectfully,
Bill/William
P.S. Here's a possible example question for the game: How many former U.S. Presidents were named Bill/William?
A - 3 B - 4 C - 5

I will share one concept for the main game.
Players will choose from a 50 numbered board.
Each one will have a different amount of "electoral votes" (a.k.a. points).
And the first to reach 270 points or more wins the game.

That's not a bad idea.
