    The Name Chain. Updated Sept 3, 2012

    NEW RULE TO MAKE THE GAME MORE CHALLENGING AND FUN: NAME PLACE SWAPPING* IS NOW REQUIRED!

    In the news of late:
    Lance Armstrong decides to no longer fight doping allegations.
    First man to walk on the moon, Neil Armstrong, passes away. (RIP)
    An NBC News website headline, "Astronaut Neil Young, first man to walk on moon, dies at age 82."

    This seems like a good place to start the chain. But to put a twist on things, name place swapping is now required. It has been in practice in parts of this thread, and it seems like a way to go to make things a little more challenging and fun. Always be cognizant of the next player when answering (avoid dead end names.)

    * Name place swapping is where when you post a person their first name must be the last name of the person in the prior post, OR their last name must be the first name of the person in the prior post. An example chain:

    Bob Dylan
    Dylan
    Thomas
    Thomas
    "Tommy" James (musician)
    Next poster then can post with a person who has James as a first name or Thomas as a last name.

    Lists of people with first names as last names, and visa versa, are on the internet if you need them when all else fails!

    Four posts in a row where the first name becomes the last name, and visa versa. Lets's see how long we can keep that streak going!
