So i’ve been sick and away and so this one is a little bit late, but herein lies the flop for the Honest Twitterer Bio…
It was an absolute pleasure having Mistress Indistarr with us as co-host and she did an amazing job:
The focus of this week was to come up with a more accurate and honest Bio for your [or someone else’s] Twitterer page. For example i wrote one for my friend Bruce Banner:
And we began by giving a taste of our revamped bios:
But this week i also gave some sneaky previews of the game to get people prepared for what was to come:
WHO CAME TO PLAY
Well firstly so many of you did and so we were trending quickly and solidly:
#1 USA #YourHonestTwitterBio @afrikkinhashtag @indistarr
— Hashtag Roundup (@HashtagRoundup) June 22, 2016
#1 Canada/#2 USA #YourHonestTwitterBio w/@AFrikkinHashtag @indistarr
— Hashtag Roundup (@HashtagRoundup) June 22, 2016
This week was a really fun game and we had two different sites do a write-up on us that we saw.
First up was #Now with this great mention:
https://hashtagnow.co/hashtag/YourHonestTwitterBio
Followed by Vibe.com who ran this piece:
http://www.vibe.com/2016/06/your-honest-twitter-bio-tweets/
Then we had an interesting collection of well-knows join us purposefully and inadvertently for the game:
Starting with @midnight itself, the king of Hashtag games which we were super amped about:
#YourHonestTwitterBio Three bespectacled nerd-golems made of ice cream and video games.
— @midnight (@midnight) June 22, 2016
But also the Twitterer itself gave us a first-time mention which felt pretty schweet:

Thank you everyone for playing and continuing to make @AFrikkinHashtag one of the most fun and entertaining games around [well, we think so!] – we will be back every Wed at 12 noon SA time and 6am EDT – let’s keep it family – let’s chase after FUNNY and CLEVER and MISDIRECTIONAL and RANDOM [but related] and above all, let’s keep the WIT in the Twitterer…
See you Wed
love brett fish
I’d like to say thank you for generously allowing me to co-host an early morning Wednesday game, which did not at all confuse me to then sleep all night, only wake the next day just in time to co-host my regular game @WedChocWars on Wednesday night!
Time-travelling hashtagging aside, this was a super tag and shows that honesty sometimes can be a matter of perspective.
Thank you so much, you were an ahsolute indi-starr! Really appreciate you messing with your time zones to come and host my game. Long live the tags…
