The Idea Ping-Pong Game

I'd like to introduce you to a game I was taught in a creativity seminar years ago....
It's a way to speed up the improvement of ideas or their creation. And it's called idea ping-pong.

It works as follows:

You start with an idea (or a problem) you want to improve.
Technically, you could create a new discussion thread for it.
Someone writes what might be a problem with the idea, or what could be improved.
The same person (in the same post) or someone else posts a thought for improving the issue.

Then you repeat steps 2 and 3 with the new posts as long as you like.

It's good and fun to allow silly suggestions as they can lead to brilliant solutions. So we were encouraged not to withhold silliness for it would hinder others' brilliant ideas.

What do you think of this?

Is there any room for improvement?
