Bahaha, I was thinking the same thing. Instead I'll go with "And I hid her where she'll never be reached. Your father cried and your mother died; I said 'I'm sorry I'm still not mollified, and I laid a little spell on them" - Into the Woods

And some just lie there/
Crying for him to come and find them/
But when he comes they don't know how to go.

You forgot "but for extra measure, I admit it was a pleasure" but you have enough to stay in.

Yeah, it wasn't scanning quite right in my skull, which is why I tagged on the first sentence. Thanks for filling that in for me!

Is it over yet?
Can I open my eyes?
Is this as hard as it gets?
Is this what it feels like to really cry?

Wish I was too dead to cry, my self affliction fades. Stones to throw at my creator, masochists to which I cater.

Try as I could I could not come up with a Weird Al Yankovic nor a ZZ top song... sadness

Mmm, couple of thoughts when we get this far in the game, I'm not so sure the 1 day limit is still so needed. Perhaps you have 1 day from the last post, to keep it fair, but there is little reason to wait the full 24 hours if everyone has another song off the top of their heads.

Also, I don't think it would be wrong to start another round, as this one still has weeks left of material at the rate we are going, yet has a limited player-base.

And on that note, I think I'll bow out, as I violated my own rules with my last entry. Oops.

I was thinking that. Would we have two rounds going simultaneously? Or just as many as we wanted? (And would that take away from the "prize" of winning a round being that you get to select the theme for the next round? Or is the joy just in playing?)

I was just wondering if we should do something about this...If we have two rounds simultaneously, who chooses the next theme? Or, just whoever wants to have a round can have one?

It looks like this round is between Imogen and Dead Cat (and...for some reason not Tao). I think once we get to two players we should change it up somehow to get a sudden death winner. But I'm not strategically minded enough to know how. Just alternating posting as often as possible until someone can't think of one?
