Six degrees thread ... rebooted

A reminder of the VERY confusing rules:

*I will post an initial picture, a string of pictures in the middle, and then a concluding picture. The first person has to use the initial picture, and one of the pictures in the middle string, and "connect" them when they appear in the same movie. The next person will take the second performer listed in the previous response, and select one of the remaining pictures in the middle string, and find a film those have in common. This continues until there is only one picture in the middle string, which then has to be "connected" to the end picture.
*There may be more than one correct way of navigating through the set of pictures. However, not every choice will let you get all the way through the list. If you think that is the case, and you find yourself stuck, you may back up as far back in the response list as you like and restart the list at that point.
*A person can only post to a particular set once every 12 hours; that is, you may post again 12 hours after your last post on the same set. The clock also restarts with every new set of pictures.
*Only posts in the string that finally makes it to the end will count for points for those that posted on that set.
*The strings will get longer with each correct set of answers (up to a point).
*One last note, these are all film connections ... not television.
*Corrections can be made but they must be made before the next person posts.

John Travolta and Giovanni Ribisi were in Basic
Giovanni Ribisi was in Lost in Translation with Bill Murray
 
I thought it was John Travolta too!!

That being said -

Edward James Olmos was in Gossip with Kate Hudson

(Went with a less obvious choice - don't know if it will work, but knowing BBB the obvious won't ;) )

I only link one thread, so I don't know myself what will and won't work.

Kate Hudson was in Almost Famous with Billy Crudup
Billy Crudup was in Public Enemies with Giovanni Ribisi

Sorry guys but I am going to post a back up. :eek:

I am going all the way back to the start.

Edward James Olmos & Lou Diamond Phillips ~ Stand & Deliver
 
Edward James Olmos & Lou Diamond Phillips ~ Stand & Deliver

Lou Diamond Phillips & Meg Ryan in Courage Under Fire
 
Edward James Olmos & Lou Diamond Phillips ~ Stand & Deliver
Lou Diamond Phillips & Meg Ryan in Courage Under Fire

Can I go back to

Meg Ryan & Rita Wilson in Sleepless in Seattle

or does that not count?

:confused:

Yeah it counts....if and only if this turns out to be the correct path.
 
First Path:
Edward James Olmos was in Gossip with Kate Hudson
Kate Hudson was in Almost Famous with Billy Crudup
Billy Crudup was in Public Enemies with Giovanni Ribisi
Giovanni Ribisi was in That Thing You Do! with Rita Wilson
Rita Wilson was in Sleepless in Seattle with Meg Ryan

Second Path:
Edward James Olmos & Lou Diamond Phillips ~ Stand & Deliver
Lou Diamond Phillips & Meg Ryan in Courage Under Fire
Meg Ryan & Rita Wilson in Sleepless in Seattle


As far as scoring goes, only the answers in the correct path get credit. So even though two people have the same answer, only one person will get the points.
 
Please let me know what you think. I'm thinking of two rule changes:

1. Going to 8 hours between posts.
2. If there's a reset (like today), the previous posters' clocks get reset.
 
Please let me know what you think. I'm thinking of two rule changes:

1. Going to 8 hours between posts.
2. If there's a reset (like today), the previous posters' clocks get reset.

1. I am cool with the 8 hours if you like, although the 12 hour rule doesn't bother me.

2. I disagree on the reset. Part of why people are so deliberate about what they put down is because you only get one shot every 12 hours (or now possibly 8). If you can reset it whenever someone realizes they are stuck.... then what is the impetus to take the time to verify what you are putting up there and to make sure whatever you do put up there sets up the next person?

Just my opinion. Your thread, your rules. I will enjoy the game no matter what your decision is. :D

Thank you for taking the time to keep all of us satisfied. ;)

I was thinking the same thing for the second rule change.
