    Well, the Battle Of The Bonds Elimination Game is now over, so based on the votes, it appears the next game will be The Great Bond Title Song Elimination Game. @StirredNotShaken brought it up, though I'm not sure if someone else introduced the idea or not. However, let's not start anything until @StirredNotShaken gets an okay from a mod.

    That's the idea, @Creasy47! :-)

    People can vote for a while and then we contact the one who made the suggestion. ;-)

    @DarthDimi, sounds good! We've got a great list of game ideas so far, so keep the votes coming, a lot of these sound very fun.

    Exactly! And we have seen things go - well, not 'wrong' but a bit less well ;-) in the previous games, and we take lessons from that. I'm sure these games can be a lot of fun, we make them fun but they can only be fun if we all understand that these are *just* games...

    Seriously now, I'd like to see a PTS elimination game at some point.

    I vote for this. I also vote for giving everyone a +1/-2 vote every day to avoid stalemates and whining, whatever the next game is.

    Look at me, mom! I am a genius.

    Regarding the title song game- will Dr No be represented in this game?

    I'd hope so. I love the inclusion of both the Bond theme and Three Blind Mice.

    It appears that'll be the next elimination game, but Dimi said we'll continue to vote, so let's wait for a mod to intervene and officially announce it before someone goes off and creates one.

    Ah well, what the heck. I'd say it's pretty obvious most of us want @StirredNotShaken to host the title song game.

    All yours, SNS!

    After going through the previous pages, there are many suggestions which have been missed:

    Soundtracks - votes (Mentioned by @StirredNotShaken)
    Composers - votes (Mentioned by @StirredNotShaken)
    Directors - votes (Mentioned by @StirredNotShaken)
    Allies - votes (Mentioned by @StirredNotShaken)
    Novels - votes (Mentioned by @StirredNotShaken)
    Felix Leiters - votes (Mentioned by @StirredNotShaken)
    Actor Elements - votes (Mentioned by @sirseanisbond)
    Film Finales - votes (Mentioned by @Creasy47)
    Ms - votes (Mentioned by @Soundofthesinners)
    Moneypennies - votes (Mentioned by @Soundofthesinners)

    Note: I haven't including any of the votes for these, as some of them are unclear. Perhaps one of the hosts could go back to count them.

    Active / completed games
    Bond Villains - (created by @barryt007) (2014-03-06) - finished - Winner: Blofeld (OHMSS)
    Bond Films - (created by @Thunderfinger) (2014-03-12) - finished - Winner: FRWL
    Bonds - (created by @Murdock) (2014-05-19) - finished - Winner: Sean Connery
    Bond Girls - (created by @Creasy47) (2014-05-27) - active

    Also, the PTS game was originally mentioned by @Thunderfinger, not I.

    Apologies, I was strictly going off of what was brought up after @DarthDimi announced that voting for the next game would take place. I suppose the first post could be updated to show all of these suggestions, as it's been decided that The Great Bond Title Song Elimination Game will take place next, just as soon as @ShakenNotStirred starts it up.

    I don't think so, as all the elimination games so far haven't included CR67 or NSNA. As much as I like The Look of Love...

    that does not mean we cannot change it, does it now?

    And the look of love is so bloody brilliant it is about time we should take it seriously when talking title songs.

    I don't see why we should? They are not EON Bond films. By that theory, we should include the Johnny English title song.

    Correction, both are the property of EON and they are JAMES Bond movies, whether you like them or not.

    They were not produced or made by EON in 1967 and 1983 respectively. Casino Royale 1953 is also a James Bond film, albeit being for television. Why no representation?

    So throw that one in for good measure then, even if to be honest I remember very little of the '53 version musically.

    Is CR67 the property of EoN?

    I've searched on Mi6 HQ, to no avail, as that's the best source of Bond material.

    I can't wait to toss out All Time High. The only good thing to come out of that song was Mark Wahlberg making an ass of himself with it in Ted.
