Basically, the name of the game is "Did You Know?" (obviously) and how to play it is.. you post a fact, preferably a real-world or interesting fact rather than something personal like "did you know I am drunk?" or "did you know I like piez?". The user below you will state if they did know that fact or not and then post a new did-you-know question. Lame example:

"Did you know the sun is hot?"

"Yes.
Did you know the moon is white?"

OKKKKK. Starting. :)
