Advocacy
I won the previous round of Advocacy, which is a game run by Mark-Jason Dominus (whose web page is really cool).
It's a fun game. Advocacy exists in part to ridicule the advocacy that goes on in the real world all the time, the ability to justify anything, no matter how absurd, without regard to its real merits or drawbacks. Mr. Dominus is the author of a piece called "Why I Hate Advocacy" which attacks that kind of advocacy.
As the winner of a round of Advocacy, I got to lead the new round. So far, there have been fairly few entries. This might mean that people are on vacation, or that my proposal was uncreative or uninspiring, or that there are too few people actively involved in the game. I can do something about the last possibility: if the idea of Advocacy (kind of like Fictionary with justifications for an idea, but all the explanations are spurious) appeals to you, you can join in by subscribing to the mailing list. Some rounds can be extremely amusing.
Mark-Jason Dominus's Internet domain is plover.com; this makes me wish that, when you visited the home page, a hollow voice would say "plover".
