Since all previous movie and TV quote games in NSU threads have pettered out I was thinking of starting up a new one with some better ground rules. Even if only a few members want to play it might be fun. So here are the rules, and if anyone has other ideas to add that's fine, just post in.

The goal is to have participation and not necessarily stump the board. To that end, if you are going to play you have to pick a reasonable quote, you have to give basic year and type data, and most importantly you have to come back at least once a week to declare a winner or give a clue. You can give up to 2 clues and the quote may last up to 21 days after its posted, but then the answer must be revealed. No single quote is left more than 3 weeks.

As with other games, the winner of the quote picks the next one. This is where most games die because the winner never comes back with a new game or no one knows the quote and the poster never comes back with an answer. PLEASE all players have to monitor their quotes or it doesn't work.

So here's certain ground rules. You have to say if its TV or movie.

You have to give a type:
Comedy
Horror
Si-Fi
Action
Fantasy
Drama
Or any combination of the above

If from a movie, you must state decade of release, 70s, 80s, etc.

If from a TV show, you must state current or off air, and if it is not international you must state country, UK only, etc.

If there is no winner after one week the poster must give a hint. If no one still gets it a second hint can be given, but after three weeks we need the answer. The original poster than picks another one within 3 days. No one can command the board for more than 3 quotes in a row. We want people to be able to play.

If the quote gets abandoned, I will stop it and throw out another one, but I'm not moderating so I hope that the game will get started and keep going on its own. As I said, if you can think of better guidelines please post them.

Here's the first quote and it should be gotten pretty fast.

Oh great, now I have to think of something... Okay, I'll try to quote this as best as I can remember. lol

TV Comedy... current.

quote:

Voice 1: So who here has played an instrument before?

Voice 2: Do instruments of torture count?

Okay, I guess this was a stomper of a quote.

My first clue is that it's from an animated tv show.

Awesome. You know, I really need to start watching that show more often. I've only seen it a couple of times. Sounds like my kind of humor.
