[Potticus]

congrats Szyslak choose a good topic!

 

[TrolleyDave]

Congrats Szyslak mate! The next round is mine! mwahahaha *ahem*

 

[Szyslak]

Wooo! Thanks guys.

Do we want to start getting ideas for a new topic? Or is there a break between rounds now-a-days?

I'll be gone this weekend, so maybe we can get some theme ideas and start up a new round early next week?

Everyone is welcome to chime in with opinions.

 

[Vulpes Abnocto]

Well that's totally up to you, Szys.
We've been taking a month break between the rounds just due to lack of interest,
but we do have a number of new players now.

if you hadn't suggested sports for this round, (which seems to have worked in your favor

) I was going to make it a comedy round.

Another idea I had last Summer was "beach/ocean/underwater" simply because it's been so long since I last saw an ocean.

 

[WildWon]

Disaster Flicks may be fun. Either world disaster OR (seriously) Theatrical Disaster... box-office bombs. That could be a great one

Just ideas

 

[Potticus]

box-office bombs.
I second this, that sounds like an interesting twist to this game.

I also second Comedies that would be another vast range of movies.

 

[naruses]

Cartoons would be a great topic.

Also, I second comedy.

I go for both options cause there is alot of movies to post.

 

[cracker]

Cartoons would be way easier to figure out and would result in insanely high scores. My vote is for comedies.

 

[Szyslak]

So the viable ideas we have right now include:

• Comedy (It's been done, but it's been a long time)
• Disaster Movies (Disasters at the box office (bombs), or movies about disasters. Bonus points for movies that achieve both.)
• Water themed (Summer, Beach, Ocean, etc)

Comedies might be the best idea to get the most participation, but I love the disaster theme. Perhaps a few more people could chime in with their votes, and we'll get the next round going within a day or two.

Oh, and Vulpes:

 

[Szyslak]

Alright, my boss is gone and I have no desire to do any actual work today, so I'll be starting the new round in a couple hours. Last chance to chime in. I'm leaning towards comedies unless there are strong opinions to the contrary.

 

[Vulpes Abnocto]

I'm SO glad somebody caught the reference!

(for me it's been 14 years since I last saw the ocean)

 

[Potticus]

Someone pm me when this starts and the topic please

I'm gunna participate this round.

 

[Szyslak]

New round is up:
