A Christmas ITFC/TWTD game idea... 13:37 - Dec 15 with 7628 viewsNthQldITFC

Alphabet tag - Player's first names in sequence going through the alphabet.

Initiator names a Town player from any era whose first name starts with the letter A.

Whatever letter that player's surname ends with (say 'r' in the example below), a TWTD poster whose username starts OR ENDS with 'R' has to give the next player name (i.e. first name beginning with 'B')

Player's names can't be repeated in the thread, and see how long it goes on for?

So, if I say...

Allan Hunter

...we're waiting for a user whose name starts with an 'R' to give us a player whose first name starts with a 'B'.

Any good?

Edit - rule changes:
Poster's username can now start OR END with the last letter of the previous player.
To allow for awkward starting letters for players' first names, the following letters can occur anywhere within the player's name: Q, X, Z (other's could be added if necessary)

----------

Player chain so far:
Allan Hunter > Brian Talbot > Carlos Edwards > Darren Ambrose > Emyr Hughes > Frank Yallop > Gavin Johnson > Hermann Hreidarsson > Ian Westlake > Jermaine Wright > Kevin Wilson


Users (only one go per loop):
NthQldITFC > ringwoodblue > Tangledupin_Blue > SlippinJimmyJuan > eireblue > PhilsAngels > Nthsuffolkblue > EuanTown > flatlettuce > You_Bloo_Right


Next poster: Username starts or ends with 'N'
Next player: First name starts with 'L'

No

My 'N' is irrelevant as the thread starter. We need a user like RobTheMonk or Radlett_blue to give us a player whose first name starts with 'B'.

Edit: Ah, sorry I see what you mean, so in the words of the late, great, Trevor Peacock "No, no, no, no,no, YES!", Sorry.

Only one R rated TWTD user logged in right now. If they arent paying attention we could be in for a long wait.

In other news as:

A) There aren't many Town players I can think of that end in G
B) GavTWTD is omnipresent

I don't rate my chances of getting involved in this game very highly

Feels like the game could drag on into the new year if you’re waiting for certain alphabetically-appointed posters to join in the thread.

Nowt wrong with a long game, in this day and age it will do us all good to get away from the instant gratification mode.

"What do we want?"
"Gratification"
"When do we want it?"
"Oh, a week next Tuesday will be fine, thanks!"

Might have to introduce some fudges around certain letters though.

Not sure there's many Town players who's names end in I, so that rules me and a few others out.

Unless I wait for a F to turn up. Someone throw me Ian Juryeff....

I don't think it's a runner, unless RobITFC, Ryorry, or RobsonWark who are online now fancy giving us a 'B'?

Maybe it is one of those games we need to play once to get practice, and don’t count the result?

Then do a proper round?

Go on Rrorry no points this time round, it’s just for fun.

Just read this thread and see we are still waiting for a user starting with an r to give us a player starting with a b.

They could, as has been suggested, go on a roll. However, it can't be Butch can it, as the first name should begin with a b, should it not? Balint Bajner would work for them to start.
