The Gang of Five
Howdy, everyone!

As you know, the forum has been fighting spammers and bots for years. We have seen our fair share of "Custom Kitchens UK", scammy Internet hosting companies, and bots trying to send us to a business's homepage. But after fighting the tidal wave of spam for so many years, the admins had a persistent thought: what if the spammers are right? Not in terms of posting nonsense links and trying to scam our users, but in trying to make money through our unique platform?

Well, thanks to the helpful counsel of Taunt, we have finally decided to move the forum in a new direction. Please see his important post on the matter in this topic

The Song Name Game

Here is how the game works. One person gives the name of a song (with artist, preferably), and the next person gives the name of a song that contains at least one word that is in the name of the previous song.

Example:
  • Stay Young - We the Kings
  • Only the Good Die Young - Billy Joel
  • Only One - Yellowcard
  • One Week - Barenaked Ladies
  • Jerry Springer (Parody of "One Week" by Barenaked Ladies) - "Weird Al" Yankovic
I have one request, though.

Don't use "the", "and", "or", "it", or any other words like this.[/u]

I'll get it started.

Down by the riverside.

(Don't know if the "by" would fall in the category of words not to use. But there was the risk to just enumerate songs with the word sea. I guess the more words there are in a songtitle, the better for the game ;)).

"By" is one of the not-allowed words. Shame on you, Malte. You're and admin. You should know better than to break the rules. (JK!)
