The Baker's Dozen Movie Game has been running a long time and I for one enjoy it immensely. However, the constant search for renewed subjects has made the game more difficult, to the point that sometimes we cannot finish the category. I'd like to propose an additional rule to prevent the game from stalling:

9. If no answer is provided for more than to be decided, the person who posted the last answer can start a new topic.

Another option would be to put the burden on the person who chose the topic to provide additional answers or shamefully admit defeat and let someone else start a new category.

Let's vote for a week on this and, if there is a consensus, we could start anew.


In case, here are the rules at present:
1. A topic is given; the object of the game is to reach 13 answers fitting the topic.
2. Players should CUT and PASTE the entire list into their post and then add ONE ANSWER only to the end.
3. Players take turns alternating with other players. Players may not add consecutive answers by replying to one of their own posts unless two hours have passed.
4. If a topic name has created restrictions, they should also be cut/paste along with the list of answers.
5. After posting, check to see if another response has preceded yours - if so, update your post to include the missing answer(s)
6. The player adding the thirteenth item creates the next topic. Please remember to create topics that fit the given game — title topics for FILM TITLES, filming sites for MOVIE LOCATIONS, etc. Also please pick topics for which there are at least 13 possible answers. In other words don't go too obscure.
7. In the event of multiple postings for #13, the posting time stamp will be the final arbiter.
8. The player posting the 13th & final answer has 15 minutes to post a new topic. If a new topic is not posted within that time anyone may post the next topic.
