Apples to Apples: Suggestions for cards

[barondave]

Trolling for ideas!

Apples to Apples is a fun party game, and one can get an expansion set of blank cards and use the Out of the Box MyCard site to customize them.

A while back, I made a sheet of Noun cards for Richard T:
Blog
Dreampark
Filk
Gaming
Light Shows
Minicon
Richard T
Shockwave Radio

In the fullness of time, I completely forgot about the other blank sheets of cards. I still have two sheets (8 per) for Nouns and one of Adjectives. Any suggestions?

I believe psychedelic and fantastic are part of a set already, iirc. Tie-dyed and stf-nal were on my list. What kind of atmospheric? Could you put a twist on strategic?

words for Apples to Apples

Part of the thing with choosing words for A2A is that flexibility can help a lot. (Of course, the winning combination amongst some fans I know remains the very literal "Helen Keller" and "visionary.") I started by thinking about Richard T, who's a quiet person I don't know very well, but whose efforts have helped make my Minicons (and other Mpls. fan experiences) much more interesting.

"Strategic" -- I know that Richard & household occasionally host game nights. "Strategic" can apply to many games (and not just Stratego) and various sorts of games. I also liked the point-of-view connotation implicit in the choosing of strategies.

"Atmospheric" -- I had a similar thought process. RT has done such nice light shows at Minicon, et al., which is probably more ambiance, but that word eluded me at the time. I liked that atmospheric could be taken scientifically.

Hope this helps.
