The song must be 'what another year' and the singer must be Johny Logan. Mr. European Song Television Grand Prix...

As for the screenshot I would have said one of the early Zork adventures? but as they are all text adventures? I don't know. But there's a mailbox, too, though.

Where's jody???

Maybe she is trying to make sense of " most commam theme in adventure games" and has decided we are all out osf our tree

Well, we probably scared her a bit and now she's not sure whether to stay or run away as far as possible

Wow Shany, I didn't expect that one to be guessed so soon!
Karsten, you're right, Johnny Logan it is. . A mailbox is just one of the "common themes" I'm afraid.

Making sense of "common themes"? Nobody can do that in one lifetime!

Perhaps Jody is giving us a clue by not giving a clue at all, in that case my guess would be Missing.

Jody -- if we don't hear from you today, one of us will post a clue for you.

I had the feeling way back when jody319 posted the answer and it was correct (page 17) that the game would be stalled. Check out the stats: Registered on September 30, 2004 (!) and number of posts is 29 (!!) so what does that tell you? This is not a frequent poster by any means!

sierramindy,

A lot of our members (I gauge around 40%) do not post much but lurks and reads the threads frequently. They only post when they feel they need to. They visit once a week or once a month.
They're here.

some times I just read just to see what is going on or look down the trading list just to see what games are going .You don t have to be logged in to do this .You log in....well I do when I want to reply to some thing or hoping for a friend to see me on line and pm me or vice versa .

Well, yes, of course, but once a month is not that good for the Name the Game thread, now is it? That's the point I was trying to make.

Hi Sierramindy -- if Jody knows to check to see if she guessed right, she would check the thread soon after guessing. Maybe she doesn't realize exactly how the game is run.

We'll give her a few more hours and then I'll post a clue if she doesn't.

We could never learn to be brave and patient if there were only joy in the world. Helen Keller

Hmm, if there were only joy in the world, who would need to be brave or patient? However, one might be bored out of one's skull with so much sameness, I would think.

My point exactly.

Sierramindy, you seem to be really depressed! Everyone deserves the the benefit of the doubt, Jody is no exception. Try to get that smile upon your face again. Believe me when I say that I know how hard it can be sometimes. If you want to escape the sameness, you might want to have a look at the infamous Common Theme thread.
