AVMA Take 2
help
Yes, it's another round of that classic guessing game - Animal, Vegetable, Mineral, Abstract [or any combination thereof]. This effort - '03/'04 should address any queries, but then again, may just serve to confuse and baffle which some might say is the point of the game. Patience, integrity and a decent search engine may be useful ....

The winning move? No.
Lurker's victory? No.
End of the long game? No.
hmmmmmm...
actually, you might be very very close with *the* winning move, but I need a clarification...
A cry of "Mornington Crescent"?
The final move of a game of MC?
The first move of a game of Reverse MC?
No, no, and no ... you weren't quite as close as I thought you might be. :-)
That's lucky, it's time someone else got a chance to set one.
The winner?
Do eeither of the words 'mornington' or 'crescent' appear in the answer?
The winner? No.
M or C? No.
Is the answer the winning move of a game?
Is the answer the winning move of a game? Yes. (ushers are moving among the audience to try to get them to be quiet, and the riot police are starting to look nervous)
Baker Street?
(cconnection to another form of entertainment - but then again it wasn't supposed to appear in a fictional work)
Baker Street? No. (I said that the other form of entertainment might not be helpful. I simply meant that the form of entertainment in question exists outside the morniverse as well as inside it.)
is it theMC5 Audience when it *shouts, screams and generally goes wild for someone*?
Stora Mossen?
I never met a winning move I didn't like
MC5 audience? No.
Stora Mossen? No.
You're running out of time today, folks; it's gone 11pm here...
Is the answer the name of a station?
name of a station? No.
Boardo!?
sorry CdM - are we keeping you up? :-)
Boardo? No. And no you are not -- I have been working up to now. But you are probably going to have to wait until tomorrow, now...
The Last Line Of A Limerick?
Checkmate?
Limerick?
Said Gertrude, that master of prose
"A rose is a rose is a rose"
There's wisdom, you see
In tautology:
An answer's an answer, I s'pose.

Checkmate? No.
The end of this game?
Is it a punchline?
[Raak] I think that is close enough!

[Inkspot] Yes. (The Orlando Consort, giving a concert of Baroque recreational depression -- Tallis, Purcell, Tomkins, etc. There was a BBC OB van there, so it might get broadcast at some point, but of course, that's nothing like being there.)
