Sorry, meant to include this before; here's a sample round.  This
round is much longer than most of them; it actually drummed up some
real interest.

Here's the first three:

https://groups.google.com/group/frc-play/browse_thread/thread/bfe010755f7a6559

https://groups.google.com/group/frc-play/browse_thread/thread/a7c343f25369c16f (make
sure to expand quoting on the first message)

Here's the full thread; it starts at the bottom of this page and
goes upwards:

https://groups.google.com/group/frc-play/topics?start=27&sa=N

But the first three give you a sense of the game flow.

Eventually people stop posting on a given theme, due to boredom or
increased complexity, and a round ends and a new one starts a week
after that.
