Each game fork has its own rules. Additional forks may be possible if the particular game would allow it at the time. Reunifications must be legal in all affected forks.

Bool, AP] Chickens! Come in, the water's lovely!
I think I'm prepared to have a bash at sound charades, but I don't know how to hide it. Don't wish to spoil it for other MCers...
Nice move, Tuj, and thanks for writing a sound charade I can guess for next time. Now I wish I'd smuggled a few characters into the other games too!
Who's next?
MF] Nice to see you back here - taking you to be the resident drama instigator! All OK then? Sadly the only sound charades I'm capable of producing are easy ones... Still, I hope you don't want to disqualify my move this time around...
Oh, and did I mention the reason there are two celebrity commentaries is 'cause I missed it out last time, for your appeasement?
Consider me appeased. Though I reckon the Eleven Mover strand's a bit optimistic! The Celeb Commentaries are definitely the most frustrating bit, though, taking the longest to write and without much hope of being read. (Which is why I introduced them :o) And I agree this game isn't worth the effort
Hang about, did you change my HYPEarthquakes move?
MF] I tweaked the "FOR" to "FOURSOME". A tabloid stole your broadsheet's headline actually... Well, it still makes sense reading down, and it was all that was stopping me starting the decreasing feature, so I reckoned it was a typo (erm...). I reckon it may well be worth the effort, as with the drama cut down considerably (and potentially merging with Just A Minim), it'll condense. And maybe the Celeb Commentary'll get scythed too...
I think the main problem is finding someone to play the next move. I'll remain willing subsequently (and hopefully you), but someone else just needs to give it a go...
But "Pope not qualified or celibate except for some..." makes at least as much sense as "Pope not qualified or celibate except foursome some..."
Nuh-uh. The headline reads "Pope not qualified or celibate except foursome." Half of the headlines have narrow extra columns denoting that they are finished. Maybe that doesn't show up for you as it does from where I can see...
*popping in to say 'hello' to the furcation game*
*Pops in to say hello to Chalky and the furcation game*
*groans - "somebody help me! waste all your time playing me! help!"*
*chops Furcation Game into two*
How ironic...the furcation game has been furcated.....
*pops in, looks around, falls over, gets up, goes out again.*
fuck our goverment it is going to shit your friend bush
Airway? Breathing? Circulation?
[rab] Aer Lingus, heavily, and poor through rush hour. sorry.
Could this game apply for a special visa, Mr Blunkett?
Can't see a problem with that. coat!
We'll put 'er in cold storage while the visa application goes through. Eet's all going to plan, maaster...
What, with a good 'ole Mornignton Crescent 2000 Deluxe Refrigerator Unit? Don't worry, she'll be back.
Hahaha... You can't spell Mornington Crescent!! Oh wait, that was me... p155
*rolls tumbleweed*
*sound of a stiff breeze whirling round a canyon*
can I kill this now? *sharpens knife*
You can try.
nights, rab] Aww, come on, all it needs is a little love! There's not even all those drama threads wafting around, an' if you wriggle out of the celeb commentary and mash together another couple of threads it's barely any work at all! Thinks: maybe I could make another move, send it in a brown envelope to someone else, and they could play on!
[Tuj] Fear not. My last comment should have a dangling '...but it won't work' attached to it.
[rab] are you sure? I'm really rather good at killing things.






I've said too much.
I beg to differ...
