I like The Howling as well. (Not a bad movie at all, I thought),. ---

[QUOTE=IvoryTowerDenizen] I vote for **The Ring** [/QUOTE] So far: 3 for \*\*Howling \*\* 2 for \*\*the Ring \*\* 1 for **Scary Movie** Hopefully we get a few more votes before our host wants the final answer. I think the first two are both good choices. Scary Movie might not count as it is a pure parody, no real horror if I recall correctly. Jim ---

Isn’t there only one **Ring** sequel? Or can we count the Japanese original? What about **Predator**? ---

Well, I figure I’ll give it another hour or two, then I’ll go with what has the most votes. ---

Geez, heh. I thought there’d be a definintive answer or something from someone like “Yup, that’s what we’ll go with then”. Anyway, since there appears there won’t be, I’ll just take the one with most votes then. The Howling. 1. Friday the 13th 2. Nightmare on Elm Street 3. Halloween 4. Jaws 5. Psycho 6. Evil Dead 7. Texas Chainsaw Massacre 8. Hellraiser 9. Children of the Corn 10. Silence of the Lambs 11. Night of the Living Dead 12. Poltergeist 13. Scream 14. Candyman 15. The Omen 16. Childs Play 17. The Amityville Horror 18. Alien 19. Final Destination 20. Saw 21. The Exorcist 22. The Howling 23. Very very good (and lucky?) guess. 1. Friday the 13th 2. Nightmare on Elm Street 3. Halloween 4. Jaws 5. Psycho 6. Evil Dead 7. Texas Chainsaw Massacre 8. Hellraiser 9. Children of the Corn 10. Silence of the Lambs 11. Night of the Living Dead 12. Poltergeist 13. Scream 14. Candyman 15. The Omen 16. Childs Play 17. The Amityville Horror 18. Alien 19. Final Destination 20. Saw 21. The Exorcist 22. The Howling 23. House Update of the scores and next category will come tomorrow when I get on (that will probably be sometime in the afternoon). For tonight, it’s breaktime (intermission?) so people won’t have to worry about being on or active. ---

Hello everyone. I’m back in Tokyo. Sorry to my Blue Team and everyone else for holding up the game and coming up with a lousy answer (RE: pitaya). Also, thanks to all for the nice PM’s and posts. Now, back to the game. If possible, I’d like to join the Blue Team again. I hope it is OK with Idle Thoughts and everyone else. If not, I understand and no hard feelings. I’ll just watch and cheer from the studio audience. 😃 JpnDude ---

If he doesn’t come back, I could come up with a question in the meantime. (Obviously, I’d sit out that round as a blue-player.) ---

Great. Now I’m the one busy. Sorry players. : / Just have a lot of work and stuff this week. So I guess I won’t put you all through having to check this game any longer daily. I release you all from your teams. Unless, of course, you all want to wait a week. But I’ll probably just start up a new one then. Or bump this up and see who is still not minding playing. Sorry so much for the delay and the, now, busy-ness. If anyone wants to quit or can’t do it come another week, that’s fine.
