The Musical Theme Game

So I'm sitting in the car, my parents driving me home from the orthodontist, and I start brainstorming for rp ideas and games and such, when I come up with a unique little game. It's called The Musical Theme Game.

RULES:

The first post will have the name of a song, it's artist, and a YouTube link to the song if you don't happen to have it on your device that you use. The FIRST FIVE POSTS of whoever wants to join (for example maybe Deux, Electrisa, Uncanny, Cruz, and DJ) need to come up with a scenario of their fcs, however many they want to put in, that will match MY scenario. However, I post my scenario AFTER the 5 contestants. Whoever's guess is closest to that of the person who chose the song earns 1 point, AND gets to choose the next song for the next round. If no one's guess is anywhere accurate to the original song, no one gets a point and a different song is used. If more than one person is equally accurate to my guess, they both get points, BUT I still choose the next song.

Whoever gets 10 points wins the game and gets to start a new one.

I also allow bonus points for the most well written scenario you give me, so start cranking that dictionary!

If you wish to forfeit the game, you cannot come back in until the next GAME, not the next round. However, you may allow someone else to join the game for you, keeping your points.

If the song you choose has any excessive curse words in it, it would be much preferred if you do not use that song, unless you REALLY REALLY REALLY feel the need to.

Scenarios are not bound to many rules except for don't go past Rule 34, and make sure it makes sense in relation to your characters, the song itself, and the environment. ~~Unless your char is completely random to the point where nothing makes sense and drives OCD people crazy to the max of course~~. Otherwise, describe the scenario any fashion you need to.

If there are any questions, please post them in a reply below, and I will be happy to answer them. Otherwise, if you wish to join the game, you must be one of five people to reply to this saying "I wish to join The Musical Theme Game." If you are the sixth or later person to reply, you must wait until the next game hosted by the first winner.

Though the post says to state "I wish to join The Musical Theme Game." , I'll let it slide.

I know some of you are confused, so I'll give an example.

Me: Here is the song. Waterflame - Velocity Wings. Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QM3YC6Wmlfo

DJ: *posts a description of a scenario he imagines what his fcs would be doing if the song was playing*
Uncanny: *does the same*
Electrisa: *does the same*
Deux: *does the same*
Cruz: *does the same*

Me: States what my scenario, and judges who's scenario is more closely related to mine. DJ gets a point. He gets to choose the next song.

DJ: Here is the song. Nanobii - Rainbow Road (And so on and so on.)

So what we do is create a situation linking to the music?

by Tyson_the_Comet Wed Jun 18, 2014 9:02 pm

Yes. Like if it was awesome happy music, someone might think of some char that they have froliking through a meadow, and if my scenario is somewhat similar to that more than the others, they get a point.

Think it would be more fun to let people come up with their own ideas and instead judge them on what you think fits best to the song rather than basically 'Guess *Insert name of who picked song*'s Scenario'

by Blazingshadows Thu Jun 19, 2014 2:11 am

Yeah, I think what Uncanny said is a better idea. Although I would love a music inspired game, it would be a lot more imaginative if we made up our own scenario. I mean, there are infinite ideas out there, so what's the chance that we're going to get two of the same?

by Tyson_the_Comet Thu Jun 19, 2014 2:16 am

@Blazing/Uncanny you ARE making your scenario. The song is just something to help build off of that. It's a test to see multiple creative minds bind together in certain circumstances influenced by music in compare and contrast form.

by Blazingshadows Thu Jun 19, 2014 3:26 am

Well, I know that. We meant that like you said the song-chooser makes a scenario and the person who gets a scenario closest to the song-choosers gets a point. That's cool and all, but it would be better if the person picked the best written and most meaningful scenario or whatever. But anyway,

I wish to join the Musical Theme Game.

by Tyson_the_Comet Thu Jun 19, 2014 3:13 pm

Oh, okay. Then I'll give bonus points for the most well written/meaningful scenario. Deal?

by Blazingshadows Thu Jun 19, 2014 4:56 pm

Sounds good. I mean, if you don't want to do that that's fine. It's not my game after all. Just thought it might show off more creativity and stuff.
