The game is played as follows: two actors are given and must be connected through appearances in television shows or movies. The object is to connect the two actors with the fewest connections possible. Please READ THE RULES BEFORE POSTING AS ONE RULE HAS BEEN CHANGED!

ROUND II

Alan Alda to Mike Myers

Set point value = 5 (see below)

Some rules:

1) You may only post a connection of an actor to a movie/TV show already established in the list. For instance, you may say "Tom Hanks in Forrest Gump" only if either Tom Hanks or Forrest Gump have been previously mentioned.

2) Posts should be in the form of: "actor" in "movie/television show" format. Do NOT do "actor X to actor Y in movie A". This keeps the game so others can participate.

3) You may only post ONE connection every three hours. After posting your connection, you must wait for three hours unless the connection has been established.


3) Once the actors are connected, you may post a list of all the connections regardless of any previous rules. The next round will begin in approximately 24 hours after the original connection is established. During this time, a shorter connection may try to be established.

4) You may only use movie appearances or TV show appearances. The exception are TV shows which regularly have guest appearances as part of the show (Saturday Night Live, Jay Leno, etc.). However, a guest appearance on, say, M*A*S*H* would be acceptable.

5) You may NOT use cartoon voices, directing/production roles. The actor must have actually appeared in the movie to be valid.

6) You may NOT use IMDB or any other refererence/database to assist you. There is no way to enforce this, but let's keep the game honest.

Points are awarded for each person having a piece of the shortest connection. The number of points awarded are determined by an established value for each round minus the number of connections (not to be less than one).

The winner and possibly runners up will be granted a custom title. Even if you do not know a lot of movies, feel free to post what you know.

For an example:

The chain has been established:

Alan Alda -- West Wing (Drakefyre)
West Wing -- Rob Lowe (Salmon)
Rob Lowe -- Wayne's World (Aranea Hirsuta)
Wayne's World -- Mike Myers (Error -13)

For a total of two degrees of separation. 3 points listed for those above to bring the standings:

Toast: 8
Drakefyre: 3
Salmon: 3
Aranea Hirsuta: 3
Error -13: 3

Thank you for playing. We were able to get a similar path except we used Austin Powers instead of Wayne's World. The new round will begin shortly.
