Reading and Ramblings of Fantastical Fiction discussion

This is a game I've always enjoyed playing, especially in groups. It'll work great in a virtual world as well.

To play: You add a 'then' statement to the preceding, 'what if' statement. Once answered, you create another 'what if' statement for the next person to answer.

Example:
Bob has 'what if you had a dinosaur as a pet...' as his what if statement.
Mary posts 'then you wouldn't go outside as much' for her reply to the what if. She then would create a what if statement such as 'what if you got a cookie every time you smiled...'
The next person would answer this 'what if' with a 'then...' and create their own 'what if in return. Thus the game continues.

Clear as mud, right?

What if the internet was really just a big scam...

then there would be somebody making a lot of money off of all of us suckers here on Goodreads. :)

What if there was no such thing as fantasy...

Lol! So true!

then magic would be an everyday tool used in every aspect of our lives.

What if we discovered that the world really was flat...
