Jim R Posted February 23, 2016 Author Report Posted February 23, 2016 Tim, again, the idea of the game is to be creative.  Use your imagination.  Listing three ballet dancers or three trumpeters or three talk show hosts or three children's authors, or three people named James (etc etc) is not using your imagination.  Once in awhile it's fine (I guess), but you're doing this over and over.  Not trying to pick on you or chase you away, but the game is supposed to be creative and fun, and you're not quite grasping the idea yet.  Look at what others are doing, and come up with some ideas of your own.  If you're puzzled about what others are doing, just ask- it's cool (in fact, there used to be a related Q&A thread back in the early years of the game here).

Hm. I have been doing that, Jim. Not sure why this is such an issue for you...just a game, right? TBH, in the above list you would have to know the reference of the last name in the previous post to get the ballet connection. Others, if you will note, I have extended beyond a simple listing of names. And, if you will further note, all of my names are real people. And, to be perfectly frank, I am not the only one who, on occasion, compiles a list of some sort. Perhaps, creativity is in the eye of the beholder? BTW...I have been posting on this thread since the beginning. This isn't my first rodeo. Edited February 23, 2016 by Tim McG Quote
