Because I like new games but am uncreative!
Seriously, though, here's how it works: like Balderdash/Bookerdash, except that instead of a word or a book, the dasher will pick a song. They will provide two lines of the song (from anywhere in the song) and the title, artist, and genre. The players will write false versions of, and try to guess the real thing for, the next two lines of the song.
It's the perfect chance to dust off your collection of albums from bands that never made it big (so they're still cool!)
Anybody in?

You know I can't say no to some good old fashioned dashing!

That is because YOU are so very dashing!

I think I might regret this, but let's go for it.

Okay, let's do this! Players will be: inspy, Stan, Jorodryn, Steave, Solara, kitoba, CCC, and FH. To keep things clicking along, dashers will set a submission/guess deadline of a few days (whatever works best with your schedule). Scoring is as follows: 2 points for finding the real lyrics, 1 point for anyone you fool into guessing your lyrics as real, 3 points if you're the dasher and no one picks the real lyrics. Do you guys want to try to match players with fake lyrics, or do you want to do one game without that add-on and then see what you think? For this round, the deadline for guesses will be by the end of the day Friday (I'll compile them sometime on Saturday afternoon). Song: "Rachel" Artist: Jim Ringer Genre: Bluegrass Lyrics: Rachel was a watermelon Ripe and freshly stolePM me your submission for the next two lyrics!

PM me your guess for which you think is the real one! (To keep things moving with so many people, we won't do the "guess who wrote which" on this game.) Rachel was a watermelon Ripe and freshly stoleQuote: And me I was a fisherman with my fishin' pole Quote: Sweeter than the sunshine And inside just as cold Quote: Rachel was a watermelon Couldn't eat her whole Quote: She was plucked from the vine By hands as black as coal Quote: I was just a fruit thief No home and no bedroll Quote: First girl that I ever loved First lie that I told Quote: To make her my girlfriend Was my whole life's goal Quote: Her green eyes sparkled brightly And pierced into your soul

I think it's impressive that we managed to not have a single duplicated rhyme.

This is even tougher than Bookerdash! Are there points for correctly attributing fakes?
EDIT: Nevermind. Maybe I should try READING the posts.
