Hoedown [Game]

[Pinch Harmonic]

Alrighty, I'm gonna try something here and see how far it gets.

During my absence from the forum yesterday, I had an idea for a little game.

Does anypony here remember a little show called "Whose Line is it, Anyway?" I do! And one of my favorite segments of the show was called The Hoedown.

Here's a sample of one of these for those not familiar.


Basically, a topic is given out, and you have to make a short, humorous 4 line song about said topic.

I don't know why I loved this so much ((maybe it's because I'm Southern, I dunno. XD)), but I've always found this bit very fun.

So, here's what we're gonna do. We're gonna play this game, but I'm gonna modify it a little. How it'll work is that I'll throw out a topic, and up to four ponies (give or take) can participate per round. These ponies try to make up songs based on the topic, and the funniest wins. The winner of each round is chosen by the "judge" or the giver of the topic. (Which for this round is me).

The winner of each round then becomes the "judge". They can then throw out a new topic, pick a new winner, so on and so forth.

The songs don't have to be based on true events, they can be made up, just as long as they're remotely funny! ;D

So, let's get started! First topic: Pets

I loved Whose Line! Best game show ever, in my opinion. Even if the points didn't matter.

Well, If your pet dies, and you go away
You can always count on a brony being there
You'll have a new dog by sunday, if they're like Rarity,
This song is terrible, just put it out of it's misery!

Improvised, like the contestants on the show.

Most faithul and most loyal friend,
Always there until the end.
And as the rainbow bridge I cross,
No longer shall my friend be lost.

"A bad pet's like a spoiled foal, that always gets their way,
If you don't give them attention, then they'll whine and cry all day,
But if you're like yours truly, and the noise just makes you sick,
You'll show them who's the boss with a proper pony-kick!"

Not bad, I think, for something off the top of my head. ^_^

In her bed Rarity cries
And soon the number of cats multiplies
All the strays belong to her
Her dresses are coated with their fur

Ok, then. Out of the four that participated in the first round, I'd say the winner has to be Saigas! twilightclap.gif

So Sai, that means you get to pick the next topic and the next winner!

[Saigas]

Thank you very much. ^_^

All right, the next topic is...

A Day At The Beach

[typewryter]

Silky sand and shining sun,
A day of fun for every one.
Untill the tied begins to ebb,
And reveals the floating dead.

[Pinch Harmonic]

I went the beach one time when I was just a lad.
It was very fun, oh what a time I had.
But soon did that day become the worst of my life.
Because when I got out to sea, I became a dolphin's wife.

[thepondfamily]

Oh, I just love the beach,
but I like pools better,
Because both have kid's poo-poo
but only one has fish poo-poo.
