I will , however, officiate. 

Deacon Beaker is the major domus. I am the tally-man. I set the rules and the rules are these: 
....................
You are building a prog pyramid.

Each level of construction of this pwog pyramid consists of blocks. 


First we have to lay the foundation. 
The first line of construction consists of a row of 24 blocks. (No real reason for this number - just that I say so.)

Each block that you lay is a pwog band/artist name. (fusion is accepted). Each block you put down you get one point. 

If you add, in that block, a track name that starts with the same letter as the band given, you get another point. 


Each level has one block less than the previous...till we get to the final apex-block. 

At which point the game ends. 

Ten certain blocks -which I have randomly chosen and written on a paper here - are "one-up" blocks: 5 extra points if you answer the question correctly. 5 points minus if you answer incorrectly. 


Finally, if you bring up a band (like say, Supertramp) which is NOT prog, you will be insulted. (Because you are a prog greenhorn.)

Also, if you pick a dumbass-band like Rush, Mars Volta,Porkupine Tree...you will be insulted. But no points lost. 

Oh yeah - per level you can contribute as much as you wish or as much as it takes. 



The first level is the letter "G". (Band/track names that start with the letter "G")

Get it on!

What a complete load of total utter crap! The purpose of this forum is to comment on music. Insipid games are a waste of time. Supertramp IS prog. You just can't hear it. Your loss. 

Yours sincerely
Another guppie. 

PS lose the 'power trip' thing - control freaks tend not to survive - check your history lessons for details and possible cures.

BTW - It's Porcupine Tree, not Porkupine Tree. Before you can 'officiate' you need to have some basic skills.
