All your favourite SciComm Twitter hashtag games in one place!
What is a 'Twitter hashtag game' you might ask! Well, it's when people, often scientists and experts in their field, pose a question such as "is this photo a picture of a Cougar?" #cougarOrNot or "which bird laid these eggs?" #WhoLaidIt etc.
To enter the game you can tweet your answer, either as a reply to the game or a regular tweet, so long as you use the hashtag of the game. To follow along with other people's answers to the game you can search Twitter for the hashtag.
What would you tell someone if they sent you this pic asking if it was #CougarOrNot?
