Can't we keep it in one topic?
And also, if people all add their own facts, that would make this a TBG

You're right, though I kinda hate how things like these can be considered TBGs when they're not even meant to be games. Still this could be kept in one topic.

Not directly; people can post amazing facts but there are rules;
these rules:
- Post others' amazing facts not your amazing facts.
- The facts have got to be true.
and...
- Facts you make must not be researched on a search site.
and to stop this getting closed...
- Follow the TOU of Scratch when making amazing facts.

Oh yeah, and to stop this becoming a TBG...
- Do not do anything funny, just suggest amazing facts (only thread URL's with the thread name (e.g. http://scratch.mit.edu/forums/viewtopic.php?id=49171 Amazing Fact!) can be suggested)

Fact: facts need to be on a seperate thread.
Fact: this is not a TBG.

No flamewars please.

I like interesting facts as much as the next person...but I have to agree that this has a lot of the marks of a TBG.   It does not seem to be seeking any specific answers to a question or trying to engage in a conversation.  It also looks like the goal is to get as big as possible.  Finally, it could lead to a lot of threads with no well-defined topic, which would be rather spammish.  For these reasons, I suggest you move this topic over to the TBG forums.
