What if...

I had this idea while I was procrastinating.
What if we made topics about something you really need/want to do, and then for every reply we spend 5 mins (or however much time you want) on the project you need/want to do?

I think if I did this it would help me a TOn, and all the people who comment would be able to get more posts!

Tell me your opinions and ask any questions you had below!
And if you have any good ideas for names that would be awesome

That sounds cool to me!

I don't understand?

I think I understand... yet I'ms till confused. You wouldn't mind clarifying for my would you x3?

Here's how it works. You want to build a swimming pool in your backyard. You make a topic. Say 2 people post on it. You spend 10 minutes digging a hole in your backyard. 1 more person posts. You spend 5 minutes pouring water in it, etc.
Or say you have a book report and you have to read the book. 4 people post on the topic, so spend 20 minutes reading the book.
do you get it now?

Oh yes I very much do get it O:

I'll definetley be doing that when I have projects to do... I always procrastinate otherwise >.<

Oh! I get it now, that is a great idea.

wouldn't you be spending more time waiting for replies on the internet than actually doing the project?

I agree with Blu. Plus, you could lose concentration.

I made a topic about me learning a piano piece.
I've already been practicing for over an hour and it sounds pretty good

This idea wouldn't work for everything, and it's not like the very best idea I. The universe, it was just something I thought would be interesting...

only issue i see here is that we'd probably have to make a sub-forum (i think that's what they're called) for it, but i still think it'd be a good idea!

Not totally. She/we could be doing it still, then get another reply to determine whether or not we continue.

Sorry if that made no sense.

but people aren't always on, so you may not get a reply every five minutes. i personally prefer to work at my own pace on projects, since i'm getting better at not procrastinating, but if you want to do this it's up to you!

I have a graduation memory book due on the 28th. Should I go to the library and print it, or write it by hand with my sloppy writing?

I think what she means isn't a reply every five minutes, just that if there isn't any replies you can take a break and do whatever, then if there are replies work on it.
