Hmmmm. this one didn't really take off, did it. Let's see if we can give it a jump-start.

Are we there yet?

Wait, you guys are followin directions. Dave's concept was not to find simillar themes, but themes that logically follow each other, no? (hence the Ohio Players boot-knockin' followed by Chumbawumba's birth scene. I couldn't think of an album cover that featured a pregnancy, but that woulda gone in the middle.

Oh wait, I've got it wrong, I think.

Alex in NYC (vassifer), Friday, 24 January 2003 02:13 (twenty-three years ago)

Let's try again. I think I completely misunderstood the concept. But I'll start one off and hope someone picks it up and runs with it.

Alex,

I think dave225 gave us A and Z and we're supposed to find B,C,...,Y to connect them (but hopefully in fewer than 24 steps).

Are you starting with a new A? Towards what Z?

Heck, I don't even know how to post pictures, what am I doing in this thread?

Paul in Santa Cruz (Paul in Santa Cruz), Friday, 24 January 2003 03:09 (twenty-three years ago)

Pictorially, get from cover #1 to cover #2 in as few steps as possible:

I thought the object was that we'd each come up with a "cover connection" (a similar-looking cover, obv.) until the last pic came back around to the first.

Or rather, the second one dave225 posted. It's like improv: You get a first line and a last line and you have to come up with all the dialogue in between.

Jody Beth Rosen (Jody Beth Rosen), Friday, 24 January 2003 03:17 (twenty-three years ago)

I'm lost and confused.

Alex in NYC (vassifer), Friday, 24 January 2003 05:18 (twenty-three years ago)

time to start afresh

electric sound of jim (electricsound), Friday, 24 January 2003 05:22 (twenty-three years ago)

Yeah, I didn't literally mean the letters of the alphabet (Au Pairs, confusingly, does start with the letter "A"). I meant what JBR said (the second thing she said).

But now I have a question for dave225:

Are we supposed to use only the connections established in the threads you linked? (That's how I understood this game...)

God, this is more confusing than cricket!

Paul in Santa Cruz (Paul in Santa Cruz), Friday, 24 January 2003 06:23 (twenty-three years ago)

Delete thread; repeat

jm (jtm), Friday, 24 January 2003 06:28 (twenty-three years ago)

the way i understood it was get from cover a to cover b using as few connections as possible, from wherever. so none of the entries so far qualify

i used to play the same game with a group of actors, but 'a' and 'z' were celebrities; the winner had thought of the least number of steps (is dinner conversation grounds for a lawsuit i.e. 6 degrees of kevin bacon? this was like ah 1993 or so)
