Interesting to note that Any Port's 8-song game has now surpassed TTR's for number of categories played...

[Kimby]

(start thinking of a special category for #300!)

(start thinking of a special category for #300!)

Kerouac did it, with "illness", the 300th category for the AnyPort 8 songs game.

[Deleted]

How appropriate!

[Kimby]

another couple categories and the Any Port 8 songs game will hit 100 pages!

[Deleted]

Thanks, Kimby. Your updates on the list are priceless.

Sorry I don't get back often enough lately to keep it tres currant (sp?)
Works really well with the find feature. Like I just checked to see that we hadn't already done "trees" and we haven't!

We did it! 315 topics to reach 100 pages
(I'm wondering if any other APIAS threads have 100 pages)

[Kimby]

Thanks to bixa's assistance, the list has been updated again.
327 topics in 104 pages

[bixaorellana]

Kimby, this is just the BEST resource. Thanks so much for keeping it up.

[Kimby]

(wondering if that's a hint that it's time to update again...will go check ;-)

[bixaorellana]

No, not a hint! It was prompted by my search for "floors".

[bixaorellana]

You're the best! Here you've just gotten back from vacation, and you've already updated the list.

Kimby ~~ if you wish, Kerouac and I can delete our comments here on your list page. I guess they do kind of clutter it up. Lemme know.

No need, bixa. Especially since they are mostly kudos.

[bixaorellana]

Kudos for Kimby!

What I'm thinking about is that when it gets to 30 replies, it will go to page two, leaving The Summary on page one.

[Kimby]

You are right. But I can delete some of my alert messages, and retain the kudos
(went ahead and deleted 6 or 7 update reminders)

[bixaorellana]

What-evah!


                                           

[Kimby]

Aw shucks, bixa, you shouldn't have.

[Kimby]

I couldn't think of what to get the Any Porters for Christmas, so I updated the 8 songs summary.
Lame, I know.

Happy Holidays, everyone!

[Kimby]

Getting perilously close to 400 topics, folks.

Let's be thinking of a scintillating choice for the 400th round.

[Kimby]

all updated again
433 topics,137 pages
460 topics, 145 pages

[bixaorellana]

T'anks, Toots!

Updated today, after my return from dialup land, where I couldn't even see this game, much less post in it!
528 topics on 166 pages

[Kimby]

New update today: 533 538 546 560 569 573 578topics on 169 171 173 174 180 181 182 pages.

And for those who are alphabetically inclined and don't have a find or search feature in their browser, here's a link to Kerouac's alphabetical list of topics.

I've been remiss, but the topics are updated again.
