OTHER SUBREDDITS:

r/WhoseLineIsItAnyway

To get flair, click edit right above this text! See it? Good!

The place where the game is made up and the points don't matter. Anyone can make a game ( Can be from Whose Line Is it anyway, or original game, has to be playable by text and you have to tell the rules ) and anybody can join in and build on each other!!

Some possible games: Scene-To-Rap: Redditors rap about a certain given situation and they build on each other in sweet rhyme!

Scene From a Hat (SFAH): Redditors create a scene from a suggestion, like "Something you don't want to hear from your parents", "Bad reality tv show concepts", etc. Redditors can reply with anything they think best fits the category.

Dating Game: One person signs up and makes a post, a mod, or someone will message three players and give them strange traits, they will act out their traits in dating game fashion and OP has to figure out the traits

Weird Newscasters: Four players: an anchor, a co-anchor, sports person, and a weatherman. Each player will have a special characteristic to distinguish themselves as they deliver the news. The anchor will hand it off to the co-anchor, and the co-anchor will hand it off to the sports reporter and so on. One person will jump in as the anchor, and the next as co-anchor and so on.

Backwards Scene: Players act out a given scene, beginning with the ending line and working their way to the beginning line by line.

If You Know What I Mean: Players improvise a scene in which they make up innuendos related to the given topic, ending each with the phrase "if you know what I mean."

Alphabet: Players enact a scene in which each sentence must begin with the next letter of the alphabet, beginning with the suggested letter (the OP would post the first letter). You must go through the entire alphabet once.

Number of Words: Players act out a scene, but each user is assigned a number of words they can use per posting.

Song Titles: Players act out a scene speaking only in existing song titles.

World's Worst: A topic is given in the form of "the world's worst [something]. Players come up with worst possible ways of performing the job/task/action. (Example: World's worst hairdresser — "Oooh, but I hate scissors. Can I just use my cat to scratch the hairs off of you?")

Interrogation: Two players are police officers interrogating a third, who plays a suspect in a given crime. The suspect, however, does not know what the crime is and must deduce it from the clues given by the other players

Superheroes: One player is a superhero with an odd audience-suggested identity. He faces a created crisis, and is joined by another redditor. In welcoming this redditor, he provides them another odd superhero identity. The third and fourth redditors arrive in turn, and are named by their predecessors as well. Then, after the crisis is solved, the performers leave in reverse order.

Rap Battle: Redditors argue about a certain topic in rhyme. Any redditor can jump in at any time, it doesn't have to be 1 on 1.

Sentences: Redditors complete sentences based on a scene by saying one word at a time, and can not reply to their own comments.

You guys can add or create more!

Basically looking for comics to present something funny in MP3 format for a very specific format in under 2 minutes, then email it to me. Just pretend to be a frustrated Washington Generals Fan.

I have a podcast called The Great Big Intergalactic. I used to live in Cleveland during the years when the Cleveland Browns had a 1-31 record. People would call into the local sports shows every morning complaining about how hopeless the team was.
I thought it would be funny to do a similar thing for the Washington Generals…. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Washington_Generals

…To pretend that you are a huge fan of the generals, calling into a local sports station, and you are infuriated about the team’s ongoing failures, and that you demand change, completely not acknowledging the fact that the generals are just a fictional prop for the Harlem Globetrotters
If you could provide an angry or depressing fictional account of your frustrations with the Generals franchise, I would greatly appreciate it, and at the end I will promote your thing, whatever it is. .
All you have to do is to record an (under 2 minutes) mp3 pretending that you’re a frustrated Generals Fan, and send it to me as an attachment to TGBIuniverse@gmail.com

My brother, myself, and good friend/musician Dakota Martin created improv songs by request on live stream one night, these are the results. Everything after the first song is an "original" improv song.

Everything after the first song is an "original" improv song. The last one is legitimately my favorite -

Hoedown! Topic: "In a Drunken Stupor"

I've tried laying down in bed and even counting sheep!

  • Weather: A redshirt realizing he's a redshirt and that he's about to die somehow

Scene to rap: Returning a defective product.

Scene-To-Rap: Redditors rap about a certain situation and they build off of each other in sweet rhyme!


Listen up redditors, maybe you'll hear

stories from best buy, if you come near.

Computers or refrigerators, you sometimes see

Don't always work as happy as can be.

Tell us your troubles from home depot or sears,

and we'll lend you our funky ears.

Please tell us how- and in good time-

your products were defective- and please use rhyme!
