Weekly Review part 5

I'm shifting from Health Month-related reviews to personal goal reviews.  The scoring is a little different, it takes into account whether or not I'm in my goal weight range, whether or not I keep stress below a certain level and morale above a certain level.  It also tracks large bad experiences and large good experiences, which are also tracked

Remind me what Friendlington is again?

At the end of college my friends made a game called "Friendquest" which was an awesome combination of trivial pursuit, pictionary, and charades. As far as I know, the only time it was ever played was on San Juan Island, after some drinking. The best part was that my friends had written questions involving past situations and those nebulously related to us all going back four years, but had neglected to write down any official answers to the questions, which led to multiple shouting matches.

It was awesome.

Oh, it's this idea that my friend Kindra came up with in response to a friend who's apartment burned down. Basically, it's a group of people who are interested in helping people in the group when they're met with some kind of need or emergency.

We want to develop the idea further to be a support group that exists outside of companies, religions, ideologies, etc. That is founded on the fact that we trust our friends, and we trust that their friends are also trustworthy.

I think it can be a Facebook app, and make it a lot easier for people to volunteer time, money, and goods to people that need it. And it could branch out from there.

I don't know. It's still way unformed but I think the seed is there for an interesting idea.

Friendquest sounds awesome. Can you tell me more about it? Do you remember exactly how it was played and if it can be played by other groups of friends?

Well, you'd have to make up your own questions and tasks for Friendquest, but you could definitely play it. It probably still exists somewhere
