The Furcation Game
help
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.

It turns out the following is easier than the work I'm doing at the moment...

Furcation I : Stratford-Upon-Crescent Boleti: And why, forsooth, are you accompanied
By these vermine, so dank and tawdry?
Furcation II : Reverse Chalk Farm '84This should help matt out a bit: Euston (Bank Branch)/Euston (Charing Cross Branch)
Furcation III : Boardman's CombinedSquare Oval
Furcation IV : Small Earthquake in ChileLamb
Furcation V : Sound CharadesAttack of the Killer Tomatoes is the only fruit/veg related film I can think of, but I don't think it's that.
Furcation VI : LimericksWho kept a very dull log

I almost considered making the last game Limacres for a minute.

I hate tables, which is why I've nicked rab's. Torn between the grips of Melpomene and Thalia (nice if you can get it), I've bifurcated Game I.
Furcation I : Stratford-Upon-Crescent Graziela: These secret, black and midnight weasels three
Doth speed my coach, and double as my tea.
'Tis quicker, by my troth, to get them trained,
Far more than all my shrews, as yet untamed.
But I, I am more shap'd for sportive tricks
Than shuttling messages beyond the Styx.
I prithee, vaunt my skill as ballroom dancer!
  • Boleti: Nay, tell us of our fortune, necromancer!
  • Furcation II : Oh Yes It Is!
    • Graziela: It's weasily explained. I always travel on them, it's more cost-effective.
    • Boleti: What you mean?
    • Graziela: Things run better on Weasel!
    • Azulejo: I don't wish to know that. I hear you're a medium.
    • Graziela: No, I'm a size 6 but you're too kind.
    • Boleti: [whispers] Watch out - it's a small medium at large.
    • Graziela: I can indeed.
    • Azulejo: But can you predict the future? ...Oh, that's very good.
    • Graziela: You're called Azulejo, you're 38, married and the father of two lovely children.
    • Azulejo: Hmm, not bad. I'm actually the father of 3 children.
    • Graziela: That's what you think.
    • Boleti: I went to your steaming hovel the other night. It said "Closed, owing to unforeseen circumstances." [All groan mightily]
    • Graziela: Yep, saw that one coming.
    Furcation III : Reverse Chalk Farm '84 [Projoy] I admire your attempt to reunify the entire game; as to your other question, hmm. Green Park/Park Royal, leaving it open for matt.
    Furcation IV : Boardman's Combined Waterchute
    Furcation V : Small Earthquake in Chile Attacks
    Furcation VI : Sound Charades [matt] Yes it was Farscape - knew you'd get it. As for the this: best I can get is Smeller's Scents Of Snow (maybe Sorrel?), but I know that's wrong.
    Furcation VII : Limericks The dog cocked its leg
    *sigh*. It seems these things always include a furcation I can't do as soon as possible. This has two already...
    [Ibid] That's what strategic passing/fudging manouevres are for. I'm not really sure how to do Sound Charades and Oh, Yes It Is myself, but am willing to give it a go.
    Shame, I was hoping Ibid'd play, as I know he's got a Sound Charade ready to roll. So here's a quick... Bluffer's Guide to fudging Oh Yes It Is!:
    1. Enter [entirely new character]
    2. Exit [extraneous character who hasn't said anything]
    3. [hero] and [sidekick] do visual comedy bit that doesn't work in a completely verbal medium
    4. "Graziela, you remind me of my wife! Why, she's so ugly, her visit to the beautician's took 10 hours. And then they gave her an estimate. When she walks through the door, the mice start throwing themselves in the traps. But then my face lights up - she shoves it in the fire."
    5. "Whaddaya think of it so far?!"
    6. "I knew I should've done Today With Des & Mel instead"
    7. "I've had better audiences than this in a phone box"
    8. "I read a book about you lot the other day, it's called Bleak House"
    9. "Goodness gracious!" [points offstage]
    10. "I say, boys and girls, if [villain/ghost/zombie/alien/giant ant/bloke with sheet over head/terrorist/DEATH] shows up, you will say It's Behind You, won't you?"
    11. Curtain
    (But don't use the last one)
