Stonkers game

It's a bit like Mornington Crescent from "I'm sorry, I haven't a clue". Maybe you need to give a reason for links between games though?

I'll start:

    I'm going to take a recursive few places back and raise you a:

    NONTERRAQUEOUS

    ...that blocks the next try from being stonkers, doesn't it?....yep just checked the rules and it does.

    Argh you want links! I thought you meant the random nonsense from Mornington Crescent, sorry, ignore!

    No, random nonsense is fine if not encouraged. If people just post a game name though they should give reasons! Obviously first person to reach Stonkers wins and starts the next round.

    EDIT: And using the succession rule, I go for the next game in the archive, NORMAN

    I'm going to employ the conservative gambit variation 1.1 here, and go for The Tebbit.

    Oooh. It's definitely not...

    Tebbit would be more like leading to something like Kung Fu Master, where you beat up young children enjoying the Chinese New Year

    http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/uk_politics/8529927.stm

    So... KUNG FU MASTER

    EDIT: Oh no! That could be an own goal... if you are familiar with the advertising slogan

    A kung fu master could be known to stomp his opponents with great ease, so here I'll post Stomper.

    Ooh that's dangerously close but I sense a trap, so I'm going to go:

    BONKERS

    but I will be enforcing the no sound-alikes follow on. That'll 'ave em.

    The Follin gambit, eh? Sneaky move. But two can play at that game!

    Drat, the Follins did Bionic Commando. I fell for your gambit! Out of the game on my first move!

    Don't worry Stephen, you're back in the game, he's good but you can tell he's getting weaker by opting for the smith variation. If we're talking nicely coloured foreign hats:

    The French Mistress

    How did you know about my French Mistress? Maybe you were hiding in the queue when I took her to

    Les Flics

    I'm seeing that the game is using the Tudor Court Rules, so I will have to move from Les Flics onto the deviously placed Carrier Command. If that doesn't put the next player in Nidd, then I will be utterly gobsmacked.

    "PSS wasted a good opportunity in Les Flics; the game could so easily have been a Spectrum classic. Instead, it is just a run-of-the-mill fix for joystick junkies."

    I waggle my joystick hard and give you DALEY THOMSON'S DECATHLON

    (sorry if I missed a P in Daley's surname)

    EDIT: Oh I see carrier command has been played. That changes everything, DALEY THOMSON'S SUPER TEST instead

    I could be daring and try to get the target game by saying the penis is next to the balls, and a slang term for the erect penis is a stonker, plural erect penises would be stonkers!

    Or am I trying to be too gung ho here? :D

    Mutants and popular cartoons, eh? Right then, TEENAGE MUTANT HERO TURTLES.

    Not sure that gets you any closer to Stonkers, but I'm sure you've got some sneaky moves up your sleeve.

    Hoookkaayyyy:

    In Trashman you hoik a load of rubbish around and..

    STONKERS!

    is a load of rubbish.

    Under standard rules that wouldn't stand but it's fine by Queensferry rules.
