Are we hooked on the bad puns again? It's luring me in. Reel-y uncool.

I was basing it off of this.

Apparently, Dave is in on it too.

Me: http://www.chiefdelphi.com/forums/sh...t=59891&page=6
Dave Lavery: looks like you were floundering
Libby Kamen: ....oy.
Dave Lavery:
Me: just trying to catch a line.
Dave Lavery: weight for it
Me: that one's a sinker.
Dave Lavery: just feeling a little crabby

I don't know much about fishing, but that line was carp. Besides, this can't last nearly as long as the cow cracks here.

Oh, for the love of cod, can't you see that Dave is messing with us just for the halibut? When the actual clue comes out, I'm sure we'll all be singing a different tuna.

I just had an idea. Maybe Libby could sucker Dean into giving us a hint.

Just keep swimming.....

[vivek16]

lol... I think that it would be bass if we stopped making fish puns. Just a trout but I am going to ask you guys to Perch stop.

[Andy Grady]

I wonder if I can submit my Turtle Larry into the game to catch the flounders? He's got the best pickup mechanism of any water based reptile I have ever seen!

Hold on to your hats kiddies...its gonna be a wild ride.

Oh...and I will make the same prediction about the game that I have been making for the past 14 years...Its going to be footballs!

[hiimcristhian]

are there any clues yet?

[vivek16]

nope. its been pretty boring.

[jwfoss]

you know the season is near when everyone comes back to the forum, searching, and waiting for the clue...

Now that I've had some time to mullet over, I think the GDC should pickerel-itively simple gamepiece this year. (I wouldn't carp if it were made of PVC.) Also, a hanging barracuda be an interesting endgame challenge.

Hmm, seems to be getting earlier every year. Who wants to try fitting a curve to predict the date for this year?

based on that timeline, i would say that the clue should show up between the 14th and the 19th.

between the '04 hint and the '05 hint, there were 7 days less for hte wait, then same decline for the '06 game, and only 2 days were dropped before last year's game.
