Dear Lemmings, who said we can’t have silly trends like the others ?
I created a game, it’s the FEDIRING !
To play you must follow the links I started at the bottom of this post, until there are none left, and then comment with a new link to a post you picked from any existing lemmy community, using “FEDIRING” as the text of your link.
Below that post you link, someone else will then comment with a “FEDIRING” link to another post from another Lemmy community, and so on…
This is how it should look :
In this example (pix above), the comment contains the word FEDIRING which should lead to an existing post in another Lemmy community (not a post you created).
The rules are simple :
- Only comment the last post of the ring. Don’t comment on a post link that already has a “FEDIRING” comment, you need to follow the link if you find one.
- You can only play once (this means only one comment from you in the ring)
- We must reach a new Lemmy community each time. You can link to other instances if you want. Use that as a way to tour lemmy.
- (OPTIONAL) Comment here to let us know if you played !
Let’s see how far we can go:
| | | | | | | | FOLLOW THIS FIRST LINK TO START | | | | | | | |
I did one: https://lemmy.ca/post/583630?scrollToComments=true
Is this correct?
It’s a great idea!
Ha ha thanks for playing ! It is not correct as I intended it though :D
I see my instructions are not good enough.
Your link should not send back here but to another post that you pick up, and your FEDIRING comment should be on the last post you reach by clicking a FEDIRING link after my link “START” of this original post here.
I will try to make it clearer ;)
If there is no link back to this post, how will the uninitiated know what FEDIRING is?
well the way you did it is good to spread randomly that’s true, but that way the ring is not extending like a chain. Maybe it’s more fun and effective the way you did it.
I’m totally open to changing rules, let’s see how people (if any) are playing it.
I’m familiar with
☻/ This is bob. Copy and paste him so he can take over youtube. /▌ /\
Bob is perhaps more elegant. It’s a complete pack but does lack a link feature to spread the fedi. I’m not sure how to retrofit Bob for our purposes tho
Maybe the FEDIRING comment could contain one more link. So that one would link back here, and the other link would lead to the next post added like a chain.
Edit : Like this :
FEDIRING is a tour
Maybe
