I may as well throw my +1 hat into the ring with Stefu's (alleged) favourite:

Fursuit Football

Seriously, we all give up and TVK please give us the answer.

Well if he's just made up the game in the same way that many of us have just been making up names, then I want the rights to it, as it sounds pretty good!

It looks like CapTVK is having to scramble to come up with a name we haven't guessed yet. We pretty much through out every name and combination of names we could think of.

Sorry about that, I haven't been able to access Apolyton for the last two days.

As for the answer:no,no,no,no,no,no....


And the game is:

Grand Monster Slam by Rainbow Arts

So someone DOES remember it! Too late for a prize now


Another!? Well let's see.............ah yes, I know!

This is a game from the late 80's. It appeared on the Amiga, ST, some 8-bit platforms. Later on the IBM PC as well.


Once again I've chosen a game that has proven its worth
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the greatest show on earth!...

Would anyone be interested in updating a small html file, which keeps tracks on who guessed what game? (Doesn't have to be anything fancy)

I've got an web-server (for those who doesn't know ), and I can quickly put the adress in my sign. That way it's easier to see what games has been guessed, and which haven't...

Sorry, the answer is 'No' on both occasions.

And I always try to keep my rhyming straight, some lines may have herrings, others aint.

No, that's not right either. In the meantime lets see if Buck can find the connection.

And another clue might help...


Trapeze acts and juggling take center stage.
And even human cannonballs remain a rage...
On a tightrope you have to remain right and steady.
And in the background is a fiend by the name of Freddy.
