After last week’s challenge, perhaps you should fear next week’s Ultimate Challenge to decide it all.  But before we can get there, we need to get through the next to last challenge.

However, let us not get ahead of ourselves.  First the recap.

Six Degrees Summer Tourney Week 8

Kermit the Frog

by Dave Umbricht

Four more tries gang (including today)!  Does this mean you are out of it?  Absolutely not.  Even if you have never played this summer, there is still time.  You see, 4 x 1pt for each win would mean you could have a maximum score of 4 going forward.  And you are . . . → Read More: Six Degrees Summer Tourney Week 8

Six Degrees Summer Tournament – Week 7

John Cusack

This past week I was going to be sweet.  I was going to give all of you a little insight into how I would score the William Katt link.  I was going to tell you that using the Roland Emmerich “Godzilla” would not be looked upon kindly.  But alas, I didn’t, so one poor . . . → Read More: Six Degrees Summer Tournament – Week 7

Six Degrees Summer Tournament – Week 6

William Katt

by Dave Umbricht

Interesting week, folks.

First, the trash talk of Mags and Daniel spilled over to Twitter.  Then, they each threw some tough punches at the game (and at each other).  And for part of the week, it looked like Mags would finally make it onto the leaderboard.

But then, as they were . . . → Read More: Six Degrees Summer Tournament – Week 6

Six Degrees Summer Tourney Week #5

Keanu Reeves

by Dave Umbricht

This week was a little light on entries, in fact we just had two.  But the two that entered seem to have a little rivalry going.  Mags vs. Daniel.  As Mags said, “I can’t lose to Daniel, we went to University together.”  While the committee would love to help Mags out, . . . → Read More: Six Degrees Summer Tourney Week #5

Sam Kinison

Now that’s more like it.  After getting beat down by y’all, the quizmaster came back and decided to be mean.  Sure it was Ingmar Bergman’s birthday last week, but it still wasn’t nice to make you link Ice Cube and Vin Diesel to him.  But one intrepid soul actually did, giving . . . → Read More: Six Degrees Summer Tourney Week #4

Six Degrees Summer Tourney Week 3

Ice Cube

by Dave Umbricht

So a funny thing happened on the way to the promised land, the quizmaster got smacked down.  Many great entries this week, but there was one that won it quite easily.  Actually it was two.  So yes, a tie.

Drew Barrymore

We live in a world where everyone is given a gold star, a trophy, or just a “good job little buddy, thanks for playing.”  Participation is good, and this week we had four brave souls enter the game.  However, in this little world of Forgotten Flix, there are winners and there . . . → Read More: Six Degrees Summer Tourney – Week 2
