The Classic Film: Six Degrees of Separation game has officially begun!


You may have noticed these logos popping up on several CMBA members sites and wondered what it was all about.  Well, we are kicking off the first ever Classic Film: Six Degrees of Separation game. To get it started I have put everyone's name with a logo into a hat and the first person who will carry the game forward is Dave of Dave's Classic Films.

Without further ado The Password Is: Oh, wait, that's another fun game. The first two actors we will be connecting in hopefully 6 Degrees are:

Mabel Normand and Walter Matthau

Before the first round kicks off:
Anyone who hasn't yet added a logo can do so at any time.  The person who connects to Matthau will then choose the next two stars and so on.  For now we won't be including Directors or Television shows but perhaps that could be a fun option at a later date. Going forward I'm just another player so everyone will put their next star and film choice on their blog, hopefully within a day or two of being chosen.  Of course I will be available to answer any questions via email or if you want a different logo etc. Choose whoever goes next however you want to but as a courtesy make sure they have a logo first. I will keep an updated list on everyone who's participating so if you need that let me know.

Oh, I know stars can probably be connected in less than six films but hopefully each round goes to six so they aren't over before they even get started. (We have some very clever bloggers within the CMBA)

Thanks everyone who has signed on to play and for putting up with my emails while we worked out all of the details. You're all great sports.

*You don't need to 'sign up' to have a turn or let me know guys...just having your logo up is enough for others to find someone to move the rounds forward. Sorry if there was any confusion.

Let the fun begin!

  12. I'm leaving it up to everyone participating on who they choose to move the rounds forward so please don't feel that you need to let me know, or sign up anywhere for a turn. As long as you have a logo up that's all you need.

    Trying to keep things simple.
    Thanks everyone!

  14. Paul,
    We know! Dawn could have connected to Walter during her turn but I think she was allowing the game to go further. : ) We were trying to land on exactly six degrees but Becky and then Dawn are too clever. Was hoping nobody noticed. Ha Ha
