Re: Song Contest (Reprise)

Huh. I didn't notice that. It is indeed the case, looking back through previous rounds. I blame cognitive biases.

Ahahhaha, excellent! I will match your move, allowing me to join your gambit.

Yay!

Since it is still November and thus NaNoWriMo, the theme for the next round is Writing. This is to be interpreted fairly broadly, so songs about adjacent topics such as words, books or stories are also welcome. The deadline is the 29th of November.

Re: Mornington Crescent

That's... a really good counter, actually. I can't really progress down this road without playing into the Terminator gambit, and if both keep going we my play gets negated through time travel.
