 Just an idea. A Hints and Tips game similar to the MSPaint game, where someone posts a fantasy hint question, then the next person answers the hint and provides the next question. Allowing and encouraging back referencing, over time this should build the skeleton for a complete adventure game, maybe the most complex adventure design ever, and growing.

Sounds pretty funny.
(Of course it's going to be the most obscure, least illogical game ever too.)
Given your productivity, I imagine you could keep an up-to-date version of the game in development.

We already have our puzzle competition, but its not like I'm against this.

- No, I mean it's really STUCK. Like adventure-game stuck.

A puzzle competition? That IS puzzling - never heard about it.  ???

Alright, so we had a puzzle competition:

I didn't realize that it had stopped. So perhaps this new take on the idea is worth a try to revive what, in my opinion, is a neccesary competition in an adventure game forum.

Puzzle #1: The player wakes up in a cage hanging off a cliff. On the floor of the cage you see a spoon, a small bowl of cold vegtable soup and a bottle of water. A big vulture stands nearby and stares at you.
