Game acronyms
circuit_four recently posted about "[figuring] out the solitaire rules for RFTG:TGS", which led to some acronym guessing. Clearly some Web-2.0-style crowd wisdom is called for here.
Poll #1368445 It's a board game of some sort
Open to: All, detailed results viewable to: All, participants: 24What does "RFTG: TGS" stand for?

I'd play either half of option #2, really, and I can't imagine I'm alone.
So... basically, the FCrash BG. ^_^

Ten immediate Baxil points for "Radio Free *", which I tried to work in but was unable to find a good gag for.
Five extra-credit Baxil points for hilarious thematic cohesion with the remainder of the letters. :)
(ETA: Yes, I'm aware Babylon's not near the Ganges, I figured they were doing a traveling show.)

> Real Fun Teenage Games: Tank Gunner SimulatorIncredibly, over on our side of the pond it's been done. > Red Fear Takes Greensboro: Those Guileful SovietsI could see this game being awesome. It would basically be a zombie survival game with the Generic Bad Guys changed.

I don't count. I know the "correct" answer (which is, of course, the least interesting), so it's quite difficult for me to give an amusingly wrong one.
That would be "Race for the Galaxy: The Gathering Storm", however.

Can I suggest "Robert Frost's Tree Grove: They're Getting Snowy"? It would be like Robert Frost's Walk: The Movie: The Poem: The Game.
> Rigatoni Fulla Tortellini Gouda: That'sa Good Stuff
yo dawg i heard you like pasta so
... I mean to say: pasta fulla pasta? That's METAL. That's like a gun that shoots laser guns. Except edible.
"Can I suggest "Robert Frost's Tree Grove: They're Getting Snowy"?"
That would make much more sense!
"That's like a gun that shoots laser guns."
It's like a gun that shoots rakes! Or a puffer train that leaves a trail of glider guns! Or a rake that shoots puffer trains!

In the spirit of randomness (and for lack of inspiration), I wrote a quick script to sling words together. Here's some of the better ones:
Raven Freak Thoughtless Gloss: Treatment Garrulity Screen Roan Fog Trainable Gravamen: Thou Gratuity Stated Reluct Fabulous Twisted Greedyguts: Top Gross Sexualize Rounded Foresight Treacherous Greenhorn: Tonic Gamelan Slip
Shame it's not of form "RTF[M]".
