  Our last Carpenters Game has been going on for a while and we surely got quite a bit of mileage out of it. So I came up with a fresh new game to tease our brains. This one I'm calling Carpenters Clue. Here's a few game guidelines: 1. This is a five day game, where you give a clue a day as to what your song is. By day five you will have given five clues. 2. On day one give a clue that's vague - you don't want to give to good a clue at the begininng. 3. As each day progresses give one clue about your song. 4. Each person gets only two guesses. 5. The correct answer will not be given until one day after the fifth clue is given (even if someone has guessed the correct song). 6. On day six when the answer is given the person who guessed the correct song first wins and will start the next game by giving a clue for the song they are thinking of. 7. But here's the clincher. Everybody gets two guesses, if you guessed the correct song on your first guess, but on the second guess you gave a wrong answer than that forfeits your correct answer. 8. If it does happen to where you and another person gave the correct answer first, but the wrong answer second - and nobody else has given the right answer, then a tie breaker will be held. 9. The tie breaker will be that you each have the chance to omit one of your answers. To omit your answer send a private message to the person giving the clues as to which song you want to cancel out. 10. Have lots of fun.

CLUE #2 This song was written by Richard Carpenter and John Bettis. beaner, here is a hint to your two guesses. It's probably best to give one guess one day and then wait for a few more clues to give another guess. So since this is the very beginning of game one, if you want to take away one of your guesses so you can have one more, that will be okay. |

(I`m caught between) Goodbye and I love you?
Must say though, there are several songs which might still be the correct answer...I wonder who wins...

 This game is a very good idea of you Rick. 
..., there's still too much possibilities at this point..., I really hope that those who take a chance will win. [glow=red,2,300][/glow][shadow=red,left,300]  [/shadow][shadow=red,left,300]Roland Chayer[/shadow][shadow=red,left,300] [/shadow]

No, I'll forfeit this first one since I screwed up. I'll just sit back and watch and play the next time. Good idea you came up with though Rick.

My guess: LOVE ME FOR WHAT I AM

hi Roland...I wondered the same thing about whether Rick meant the word love was in the lyrics or the title, and maybe you already looked back to see what he meant..but he says...love is in the lyrics
but no
I don't have a guess yet on this one...
???HEY MR. BEANER...?...DO YOU MEAN BOTH OF YOUR GUESSES (Hurting Each Other and For All W. Know)...
are out the window..or only one of them..
sorry...don't mean to confuse...

The word "Love" is mentioned in the song lyrics. So far the only clue I've given about the title is that the word "Goodbye" is not in the title. |

%^
It's MS. BEANER. Actually, my real name is Mary Ann but I'm known as Beaner on here. Not a problem though; it's understandable.
Yes, both my guesses are out the window. I have excused myself from this first game so it's like my two guesses were never mentioned.

@@ Before I give you guys clue five (which will be a two part clue), here's a recap of the first four clues. 1. This song has the word "LOVE" mentioned in it's lyrics. 2. This song was written by Richard Carpenter and John Bettis. 3. This song does not have the word GOODBYE in the title. 4. This song was released as the B-side to one of the Carpenters' U.S. top 20 hits. I'll be back tonight with the last clue. remember if you guess twice the second guess is the one that counts. |
