I'd opt for theme songs... film titles is stretching it a little, but deaths would be interesting.
You're probably right. Film titles is a little thin, however after I eventually host my own game on the PTSs, and if I can do another, I might do one on deaths of main villains (assuming it hasn't already been done.)

Two other possibilities are lead Bond performances and plots/central concepts. Sweepy, when are you going to make your decision?

What about one-liners? One line could be chosen from each film (such as 'she had her kicks' from FRWL), and perhaps more than one from certain films, and we could choose the best.

Well for lead bond perfomances it would be a tie between SC, RM and PB (I know who I'd vote for) but due to dan asking, dan, JFF and Georgiboy all want title themes so let's start one on that.
I've got it all planned out so will it be ok if I start it off tonight or tomorrow ?

How about waiting until late November? Many of us are still recovering from the Bond Girl elimination game.

Alright then, 15th November perhaps? Should we use the +1, -1 technique because I find it much simpler, I have an idea which ones will come near the top. Shirley Bassey
Perhaps I'm a bit biased, but I think using my hybrid of Jarvio's and Lazenby's systems the best way to go, that way it won't be short or horrendously long.
Use Jarvio's method at first and when you get to the top 10 (or 5) switch over to the Lazenby method.

Is that the same method as used in the Bond Girl Elimination game. If so in the save 1, eliminate one does it go like this for example?

Yeah, I like the combo method much better. Save one and go until one is eliminated and then restart until we get to the top ten, that plus/minus system was tough for a little while, but otherwise if you continue with the save one process people can miss out on voting in one or two rounds. also, it was good having the voting rules set by the site clock, much less confusing, and worked out reall well, good choice JFF. {[] Also, Nov. 15th sounds good for a start date if you can put it together by then Sweepy, and Dan I agree, we all need a little bit of time to catch up and take a breath after that last one, what a great elimination game!!!

It was fantastic. What did you think of the results?

YKMN, you don't know how much this means to me! I'm glad that you enjoyed it (I did too!) I must admit, sometimes I let my views rule my common sense a little too much, but here, I don't think it was (that much) of an issue. I think that by combining the +/- and the Jarvio method that it pleased both fans of the elimination games and that the end result was good. Also thank you for commending me about the site clock! Some people would accuse others (I would frequently be accused because I'd vote late at night and then the next morning before school), but since I was in a different time zone, it showed up differently on the site. You could probably work the site clock if you really wanted to, but I think it makes it easier for everyone involved.
Thank you once again YKMN, after Dan and Sweepy have their goes at it, look forward to the Soundtrack/Score Elimination Game hosted by yours truly, JFF!
Good luck to you Sweepy, and thanks everyone for playing the game(s) (if you're counting the Jenny Flex one as well ).
