On the forum, yes. Maybe not playing this particular game.

I just figured he would have come up in the game, under the circumstances.

I'm only familiar with Illinoise, and the two state songs I could think of were preempted by other songs with the same state. (That was a very difficult circumstance to put into words.)

And I guess I will take charge of the next round. Please PM me with ideas, if you've got 'em.

Has anyone come up with an idea, yet?

Um, just a couple from C is For. I promise I'll start the next game soon.

But if anyone has ideas as well, I wouldn't mind hearing them. Here or in a PM.

No worries. I just want to make sure you're getting enough support. Where's bob? She should have some ideas.

Yeah because I don't mind saying it but I don't love my ideas.

How about months of the year?

That could be fun!

Apparently I have ideas.

Ooo! How about a round where you have to use the song above you somehow? Maybe you have to use a word from the song of the person above you as well as the designated word or topic. Or maybe it could be an order thing, like we do numbers again but you have to go one to ten numbers higher than the person above you. Or say the topic is fruit and you have to do a fruit starting with the next letter of the alphabet. Obviously this would need some figuring out.

Well, you also own the game, right?

And I like your ideas, but I'm a little hesitant to do something that relies so much on posting orders. How does everyone else feel?

Yeah I know it would probably be a bit too complicated, don't worry.

Actual topic cards from the game (from memory, don't judge me):
Modes of transportation (I would narrow it down to one mode of transportation)
Girls' names A-M
Girls' names N-Z
Boys' names A-M
Boys' names N-Z (am I punctuating this correctly?)
Songs about famous people (we'd need some rules for this one)
Numbers 1-10
Numbers over 100

There's more, but that would involve actually, like, getting up and getting the cards. ; )

I remembered more, if anyone is interested.

Songs about breaking up (this would need more rules)
TV commercial jingles
Telephone numbers
Fruits
Songs about domestic animals
Songs about wild animals
Songs about plants (again with the needing more rules)
Countries
Occupations
Internal body parts
Songs about a part of your body

HA! I had a long car trip yesterday and I was trying to think of things that would be good for this game. That was totally one of them! So I may be leaning towards that.

My other idea was 'sun' songs, but there are like a million of them and I wasn't sure if that was a good thing or a bad thing.

I like the idea of body parts, but I think there are probably a million songs just with the word "heart" in them. Do we want to limit it any other way? (We could do elimination, again, where you can't repeat a body part that someone else has said.)

Yes, my rules were gonna be (1) no repeats and (2) must be used as a body part (i.e. "head on down the road" wouldn't count).

I like it!
