Games Very Clever, Cute Combos!! Sign up!

Hi, I am Jade eyes, your hostess. I am revamping a game I hosted prior to the move to make it faster and more fun! Hopefully
Rules:

1. The host will provide 6 combination prompts to the players in this thread.

2. Players have 48 hours to PM their answers to the host. Google, Wikipedia, etc. searches allowed

3. The host will post all entries in the thread, and players will have 48 hours to vote for the combos they like best.

4. Whomever gets the most votes wins.

_____________

More on voting:

1. You cannot vote for your own entry.

2. When you vote for a combo by another player, indicate it by name of player, and which combo(s) of theirs you're voting for.

E.g., With 5 players on the roster and 6 prompts, there will be 30 prompts to vote from/among. You can vote for as many or as few of a given player's combos. That means you don't have to vote for all the combos submitted by any given player.

________

An example of a combo is:

If cows in Hawaii held a luau, what would you call it?

An answer could be: A mumu party or something even more clever.

I have no idea what this is but **** it. YOLO CLITS

 

Hi Internets Love your siggy. Hi Diggy also. LOL On the old boards, I hosted a game called Word Whiz where you had to come up with clever phrases but the objective was to match to gain points. That was too iffy I was always drawn to the strange categories where two expressions were joined on Jeopardy or Wheel of Fortune where you'd wind up with something like Boy George Foreman Grill or Piggly Wiggly Wolf's Nursery. I also like the voting element in "Pass the Paragraph" and "Hypathetico", elsewhere in the Games thread. So this game is the fruition. Best thing is there's no right or wrong answer. Silly and cute is the hallmark of a good combination.
