Hi guys - I was advised of CLUE CHAIN by les40 and have enjoyed it ever since (I feel guilty now that I wasn't there on Monday but had a really pressing engagement).

Just a suggestion, why not start off Monday afternoon's thread with the title of 'AFTERNOON CLUE CHAIN' and if the thread gets over 60 (or so) posts, rename it 'EVENING CLUE CHAIN' on a new thread and omit the time frame in the preamble. That should cover the 'night owls' and our antipodean friends.

That's a good idea, RE--- if I may join in the discussion!

hi re, i often have pressing engagements----- we call it "mum doing the ironing" in our house!!!

Like yr idea -- a bit like what i was waffling on about earlier.

You're too clever by half bobs mum.

btw - did you see my post on your 'back home' thread?

The Clue CHAIN preamble states 'Game usually finishes around 6pm' There is nothing to stop folks carrying on into the evening - I think you are suggesting unnecessary complications. jws tried an evening thread and it didn't work so we went back to the old format,

So it's back to the critical point - how can we encourage newbies (to Clue Chain) to join in?

Good morning all....feeling a bit nostalgic today....so with our new search facility looked back to see when clue chain started.

'twas the 15th November 2011....then on a Thursday.

Rambler.....kicked it off, closely followed by Trevor with...

Don't forget about your penis? (8)

Which was answered a minute later by djawhuf!

Still makes me laugh.....

I am quite willing to do as i suggested and post on other threads asking if people would like to join in. Plus an 'advertisement thread'.Suck it and see-- it's worth a shot.

RE --- thanks for the kind words on home sweet home thread--can't get rid of me that easily lol

Hello bm....

I " hijacked" the EVERYMAN 3463 thread last night to try and drum up "newbies for peer review....no response so far....

But I agree you should give it a go....

I was out most of yesterday, so missed the "home, sweet home" thread. I'm glad you're back safely, bobs mum - I hope your return trip for the car is easier.
