[UK] Do you think we sacrifice quality on the altar of quantity? I'm undecided - but there's rarely a 'LOL' (probably because nobody can post a word in edgewise). I rather liked Softers' A-Ha Day's Night.
A Bridge U2 Far [IS,P] You could well be right - and you certainly are about Chalky. In my defence, as I said above, this is the only game I do this in, and I really appreciate the opportunity to do something approaching 'quickfire'. In addition, there are a number of games across the morniverse that I "don't get" or find too complicated, so I just leave them alone. Whilst I'm not saying that this justifies altering the gameplay here, I don't see games being tinkered with to draw in the greatest possible number of players. It's always nice to find a popular game, but any that is 'active' - certainly to this extent! - should surely exist on its own merits.
Having said all of that, I remember that I got over-enthusiastic with a previous film club game on MCiOS, and that got closed down as a result, and I was rather embarrassed that things ended up that way. I naturally don't want to see the same thing happen again.
Toyah Toyah Toyah [UK] Well, my big games are this one and 201: A Google Odyssey in Another Place. I don't play more than a couple of moves in straight MC games 'cos these new rulesets are a joke - everything was more straightforward in my day. Nice "Bridge U2 Far", btw.
[IS,P] Phil's is the first we've had to pun a film title, I believe: a collision between the film Three Men and a Baby, and Aerosmith's hit "Dude Look Like A Lady". Of course, I could be horribly wrong about this...
Sacha Distel Momma the Babysitter's Dead [Phil] No problem. Nobody said 'stick to artists', but people are more likely to have heard of artists perhaps than individual tracks.
[Phil; IS,P] Just seen the blunders in my post above - I meant to describe the combo as Phil has done (but got myself tangled), and I've realised I should have said "the first we've had to pun a song title. *slaps forehead*
[UK] I make it a rule to always Wiki before displaying my ignorance on here - i.e. I Wiki and then display my ignorance on here. Power Station = Robert Palmer (he of the Sledgehammer) + Two Duran Durannies (John and Andy Taylor) + some bloke out of Chic (Tony Thompson) on drums. doesn't sing: "get it on, bang a gong, get it o-on".
