[UK] Goodpi Lenin is a great film. dy by dx men stars patrick stewart but you won't get it unless you did calculus at school. Where e=mc^2 is where eagles dare. They're not funny if you have to explain em.
[UK] Flame trees of theta (Thika); Integrate/Mile (8Mile); Sin City (obviously). I was simply going to post "cos(π/2 - City)" but thought it might be a bit too cunning. I note you coped easily with "theta, mu and bob too"...
[irach] I don't think you know how irritating that is? I can't even be bothered to read through your posts to see if any of them are amusing. Hence, I can't be bothered to try and think up any of my own. Another player and I did that once (at least we took turns) and filled in a page or two of a game in half an hour. That was about 10 years ago. I cringe with shame now when I think of how crap an experience that must have been for everybody else.
For my sins, I tend to play first thing in the morning, which is from around midnight for most of you, and maybe add the odd comment at around 4pm (about 7am for you guys) so there is little interaction with other players. It is a bit disconcerting to arrive at work and find that there have been 200 moves since I last posted. Having said that, I know I am guilty of posting long lists of moves but it does tend to be the norm in this game. Should we maybe look at limiting the number of consecutive moves to 3 or 4?
Other notable offenders to the general 'only post one or two' rule are myself and UK as, although we do 'only post one or two', we play ping pong during office hours and by the time irach or nfras get there it's thirty or forty new ones for them. We're trying to find somewhere else to play so we don't piss so many people off but no luck so far with the Lockisseum...
[IS,P!] Perhaps the four of you could meet up and do it like a panel game. I'd be willing to chair... sounds a good concept. Maybe Radio 4 would be interested.
[All recent disputants] I'm as guilty as the next man of overposting (as long as the next man's I Say, Porter!). I do confess that the huge blocks by irach & nfras are a little overwhelming on first sight, but as this is a fast moving game only at certain hours of the day, I can appreciate the frustration of sitting on a raft of good moves with the possibility that you'll never get the opportunity to play them all 2 or 3 at a time. Having said that, let me just add: Doc Savage - Man of Cu6Sn5
[UK] Have you actually seen that? Let's recap: We've had Butchers, Greengrocers, Bakers, Weightwatchers, Police etc., Publicans, Interior decorators, Gardeners, Chemists, Takeaway/restaurant, DJs, and Physicists mathematicians and the like. How about The religiously inclined in all their guises.
[IS,P] 'fraid not - just remember the poster campaign. Wanted to catch it at the time, though, as I'm a big fan of Joseph Fiennes. Anyway, on with the game! The Vicar Man
[IS,P] Oh! T'was sent at about 3.15... Not to worry: try nick dot kirby, and, with an at, add that onto the front of lbbd dot gov dot uk and see if it gets through the corporate spam filter!
[irach] Well, we've already had Interior decorators half a dozen clubs ago, which covered most of these topics. Whilst your two are not duplicates, I can't see this one extending the Club very far, personally, and it'll be a bit of a pain to check duplicates... Recap II: We've had Butchers, Greengrocers, Bakers, Weightwatchers, Police etc., Publicans, Interior decorators, Gardeners, Chemists, Takeaway/restaurant, DJs, Physicists etc, and the religiously inclined.
[IS,P] OK - I thought that one might fall flat! A collision between the Marx Bros' film "Duck Soup", and a slang term for high-power lager, "Electric Soup".
