Hey everybody,
On some thread somewhere, either here, on THR, or on ARFCOM, I remember that someone said (I'm paraphrasing) "History is about more than being able to answer questions at Trivial Pursuit."
This gave me a cool idea, because in my family, Trivial Pursuit is how we roll. Commence for to be checking this out, y'all:
How about a higher-brow version of Trivial Pursuit where, instead of giving merely "trivia" answers to questions, the questions are more open-ended and deeper?
Categories could include History, Science & Mathematics, Philosophy, etc., and instead of just asking names of things, the "questions" would ask for causes, explanations, backgrounds, etc., and instead of the answer being just printed on the back of the card (though _something_ would have to be back there), the other players would decide if the answerer gave an adequate answer by a vote, or something.
I'd call it, like the thread title says: "Intellectual Pursuit"
What d'y'all think?
