Name Association Game

Post by UBT - Chris »

Rules:
has to be a celeb
the first name of one celeb has to begin with the first letter of the last name of the previois celeb - e.g. Simon Cowell --> Cameron Diaz --> David Guetta, etc...

so, to start off, I'm saying:

Alan Turing

Danny La Rue >> Richard Hammond

Just a point - this is actually a very simple game....just a question of selecting a celebrity from a whole list of A, B, C and Z listers ;).

What would make it MORE interesting is if the two people in each "guess" were actually associated with each other somehow or other - with both appearing in the same film or TV show, or both having famous parents, or both owning houses in Beverly Hills, etc - so you'd have to offer the new name, PLUS how they were associated with the first person - would this not make this a bit trickier ?? Just an idea !!

Hi Chris,

Glad you like the idea - it's good of you to give the go-ahead for me to "hi-jack" the idea a bit and make it a bit trickier.... ;) It'll give some people a bit of brain teasing to come up with unusual links :)

I can see that wikipedia and imdb.com are going to be accessed quite a bit....especially with some of the names that have been used already....never heard of some of them !!
