Man alive, that was quick! Well done, esp. on the Limacres, and I like the Brecht & Weill particularly. Maybe we could adapt it into the Sonnet game, instead of my Ogden Nash idea?

Wow. Some interesting hybrids there, although I was slightly saddened by the adulteration of the kitty game.

You realise that you've pretty much put this game out of my reach as the amount I know about theatre could be written on the back of a fag packet and there'd still be some space left for a full proof of Fermat's Last Theorem. However, I will try and think of a way out. In the meantime, would Blob or Projoy (or indeed anyone else) like to enter the fray?

[MF] Brecht and Weill could go to sonnets, but I don't know whether it would work without some kind of story context, however daft. The theatre games actually turned out to be lots more fun than I expected, but it is asking a lot to keep (currently) 9 of them going in parallel. It made me think we ought to try a Whose Line "film & theatre styles" sort of game, in which a single play goes through periodic changes of style.

[rab] <mode="whining">He started it!</mode> Anyway, as you said yourself only a few weeks ago: "That's what strategic passing/fudging manouevres are for." I admit that it gets a bit tricky when there are so many of the things, though. As for the kitty game, I guess I'm just not a cat person. Plus I kept having nightmare flashes of what happened with the puppy game in Acre Street :) But there's no reason why you can't refurcate it again next go...

[matt] Earlier, whilst in the Gents', I worked out what I think would be a suitably strategic fudging manouevre. I think it can be made to work, so unless Projoy or Blob pick up the gauntlet over the next few days, I will sharpen my pencil and don the thinking cap. Not sure the kitty would survive defurcation, but I might have other plans in store for her too...

[All] Bravo!! I'm getting gift ideas all the time :-)
