Rule question:

Can we tie by methods other than common movies such as familial relationship, marraige, director etc?

Yes to Sigourney Weaver.

I'll leave it to Raggedy about game rules. We have played various other versions of this game, fealola. This one started last fall. When did you start the first one on Abuzz, Raggedy? Two years ago or so?

I'm sorry for the delay. Phone call. We've been playing here for 7 months already. And we were at the other site for over two years, I think.
Fealola, the tie-ins and years were added because the questions can get rather tough without those hints. Our earlier games were not related to occupations, but we were running out of ideas, so I decided to give it a whirl. I don't see any reason why you can't tie in to a director, etc., but I think it would be a good idea if you told us the nature of the tie-in. It seems a lot simpler when you're asking the question. We found that out the hard way. Laughing So, on your next question, go for it.

My new question follows the usual path. Tie Sigourney to a fellow actress.
